About

What is EchoPark Speedway?

Hampton, Georgia, is home to one of the most iconic tracks in stock car racing and hosts two NASCAR race weekends each year. EchoPark Speedway has been in operation since 1960, and its 1.54 mile quad-oval track has long been known as one of the fastest in motorsports. EchoPark Speedway also hosts Monster Jam, car shows, the Georgia State Fair, local High School Graduations and hundreds of other events throughout the year.

EchoPark Speedway History

Ground was broken in 1958 for what was originally known as Atlanta International Raceway, opening on July 31, 1960, with Fireball Roberts winning the inaugural Dixie 300. From 1960 until 2011, the Speedway was home to two annual NASCAR events: the Atlanta 500 in the spring, and the Dixie 500 in the fall. In 1990, Speedway Motorsports Inc. bought the track, adding condominiums to the course in 1994 and almost completely rebuilding the track in 1997.

Some of the most iconic moments in NASCAR history have taken place at the Speedway. Before the advent of the Race to the Cup, EPS was often the last stop on what is now known as the NASCAR Cup circuit, leading to some incredible finishes to the season. The 1992 Hooters 500 featured Richard Petty's final NASCAR race, Jeff Gordon's NASCAR debut, and a legendary ending in which Bill Elliott won the race, but Alan Kulwicki won the Winston Cup title.

    Everything about the day was Great! We enjoyed everything

  • Night Racing @ AMS...it doesn't get any better!

    by BCat0124 on 9/13/10Atlanta Motor Speedway - HamptonRating: 5 out of 5

    I thoroughly enjoyed myself at the Emory Healthcare 500!!! This was my third time going to Atlanta Motor Speedway and I was impressed once again. The facilities were clean and the staff was very helpful. The Pre Race activities were varied as well as exciting and of course the racing was amazing! The fireworks and fly over were really nice as well. I'm sad that AMS lost one of it's races but all the same I can't wait to go back next year! If you haven't been I suggest you go one of these days... it definitely is the biggest and best Labor Day Party in the world!!!!

  • Sprint Cup Race in Atlanta

    by AByrum on 9/12/10Atlanta Motor Speedway - HamptonRating: 5 out of 5

    Great race with awesome seats! I would definitely go again. Though, I will have to say the tickets were a bit on the expensive side, the seats were wonderful. I would like to see a more affordable option to get a pit pass included. After you pay $120.00 for a seat, another $100.00 for a pit pass is a bit extreme. But, it was a real treat and a great experience. Already looking forward to going again!!!!!

  • Race was awsome

    by allrico1 on 9/12/10Atlanta Motor Speedway - HamptonRating: 4 out of 5

    The race over all was great, the only two things i didn't like was the drunk people and the traffic, but being my first nascar race i'm pretty sure that's at all the tracks.

  • Race Was good, Seats were terrible

    by Mike86 on 9/8/10Atlanta Motor Speedway - HamptonRating: 3 out of 5

    Great Racing Action, although where I sat at was a different story. Person next too me got drunk and puked on me and the people in front of me. Then the people behind me started fighting. Then someone through water down on us from the top acting stupid. Too Sum it up, Great racing, you can see the whole track from every seat almost, just the people that attend the event are outrageous.

  • Nascar is awesome!!!

  • Foreigner still rocking!

    by AmsNascarfanMark on 9/8/10Atlanta Motor Speedway - HamptonRating: 5 out of 5

    It was a beautiful day in Hampton at AMS not a cloud in the sky! Third Nascar event I attended but by far the best ever. I met Papa John and my wife got an autograph fron Kyle Petty. At the Sprint complex. we drove the nascar simulators. We visited most all vendor haulers.

  • Atl Race was amazing

    by ChristyCoCo on 9/8/10Atlanta Motor Speedway - HamptonRating: 4 out of 5

    We had such a great time. We camp and party for like 5 days. The only part that was not so much fun was getting to our seats and having 2 people already sitting there and saying that it was their seats. HELLO, I bought our tickets online and printed out the tickets.....you bought yours on the corner.

  • by redsnapper1 on 9/8/10Atlanta Motor Speedway - HamptonRating: 5 out of 5

  • Great Clips 300 Nascar

    by comanche1950 on 9/8/10Atlanta Motor Speedway - HamptonRating: 5 out of 5

    Fully enjoyed the experience. The use of the Ticketmaster ticket printout was simpler that purchasing tickets at the Gate.

  • Amazing Race

    by Roadking1450 on 9/8/10Atlanta Motor Speedway - HamptonRating: 5 out of 5

    Amazing event. Best track I have ever attended. The facility is A+++++. Parking was effortless. I was out of the area within 15 minutes after the end of the race. My only complaint, only one race in 2011.

  • by herbette on 9/8/10Atlanta Motor Speedway - HamptonRating: 4 out of 5

    The Sprint Cup race was an interesting experience. I will be attending more races in the future.
