Langley Speedway

Langley Speedway (Birds Eye)
Located in Campbell Valley Park, this 1/4 mile stock car racing track operated from 1963-84. The track hosted several NASCAR Winston West Series events. In the track's final few years, it went by the name Action Raceway.

The track closed after the city refused to renew the lease. The grandstands, fences, and other buildings have long since been torn down, but the track surface and retaining walls remain intact.
In 2006, it was declared a Heritage Site by the local government.
