For many years, the Niagara Motorcycle raceway has provided the public with a spectacular high speed sport called Speedway Racing. This exciting form of racing is displayed weekly by some of North America's top riders.

They accelerate from 0-100 km in just 3 seconds and spend the majority of the race sideways.

The annual National Canadian Speedway Championship race is held on the Welland track every year. This night, one rider is crowned 'Canadian Speedway Champion'.
