Costa Mesa Speedway Track

The race track at Costa Mesa Speedway is a 185 yards oval on the pole, it is 1/10 of a mile long. The track surface consists of a special clay base with decomposed granite. This special dirt combination can support the grinding rear tires and weight of the powerful Speedway Motorcycles; it’s a dirt that can assure speed and performance while providing safety for the rider. Also, the race track surface can form a “Blue groove” – the ideal line around the track where the dirt gets worn down into hard-packed DG from the Speedway Motorcycle tires. It can cause the rear to hook up faster and can be as hard as concrete. Is this good or bad? Depends on the rider!

Built And Promoted By Actual Speedway Racers

In 1967 Harry Oxley went to work for Jack Milne, owner of a motorcycle shop on Colorado Blvd in Pasadena, CA. In the late 1960s, Harry Oxley and Jack Milne (1937 World Speedway champion) promoted speedway events in Van Nuys until they ultimately found what they were looking for at Costa Mesa. “He’s the godfather of speedway,”  Brad Oxley says of his father. “He’s the one that has made all that is here at the Costa Mesa Speedway possible.”  Brad Oxley (2X National Champion) followed in his father’s footsteps and is the current event promoter at Costa Mesa Speedway with his wife Jaleen Oxley.

56 Years of the Most Spectacular, Fast-Paced, Unpredictable Live-Action Motorcycle Racing

Legendary Speed

0 – 60 mph in 2.5 – 3 seconds (approx. 100 kilometers per hour)[/nectar_hotspot][nectar_hotspot left=”49.40144766146993%” top=”56.546052631578945%” position=”bottom”]

Speedway Engine

Four-stroke, single-cylinder engine with one carburetor, one spark plug, and a maximum capacity of 500cc[/nectar_hotspot][nectar_hotspot left=”74.41188752783965%” top=”6.315789473684211%” position=”bottom”]

Brakes

No brakes of any kind! All motorcycles must have a “Kill Switch” that must cut off the circuit of the electrical supply by the simple action of pulling a string attached to the rider’s right wrist.[/nectar_hotspot][nectar_hotspot left=”61.8423%” top=”25.2303%” position=”bottom”]

Fuel

Fueled by methanol with no additives. Methanol allows for an increased compression ratio to the engine, producing more power than other fuels and resulting in higher speeds (approximately 130 kilometers per hour).[/nectar_hotspot][/nectar_image_with_hotspots]
