    Track History: Rockford Speedway is located just seven miles north of Rockford, IL in Loves Park, IL. Rockford Speedway is Northern Illinois’ longest running sports and entertainment venue.
    Since the inaugural season in 1948, the high-banked quarter mile oval has been tabbed as “Mid-America’s Finest Racetrack.” Rich in racing tradition, this reputation has been well earned through hosting major events like the granddaddy of all short track post season events, the National Short Track Championships.
    This prestigious event has helped launch the careers of the NASCAR stars such as Mark Martin, Dick Trickle, Alan Kulwicki, Ted Musgrave, Rusty Wallace, Rich Bickle, Greg Biffle, Matt Kenseth, Travis Kvapil, Jamie McMurray, Todd Kluever, Erik Darnell, and Scott Wimmer.
    The racing is sanctioned by the National Association of Stock Car Racing, NASCAR. Rockford Speedway participates in the NASCAR Whelen All-American Series. The divisions that compete at the Rockford Speedway includes: Late Model, Sportsman, American Short Trackers, Road Runners, Hornets, Bandits, Winged Women on Wheels and Figure 8’s. The track also hosts many different touring series including: ARCA Midwest Tour, Big 8 late Model Series, Mid-American Stock Car Series, Illini Racing Series Midgets, Super Cups and more.
    Focused on entertaining the fans, Rockford Speedway’s family-oriented racing schedule is nationally known for its innovative events like the ‘Original Trailer Race of Destruction,’ ‘World Famous Figure 8 Trailer Race’ and ‘Night of Thrills.’ The Speedway also welcomes nationally-known monster trucks like Tail Gator, Devastator and Mechanical Mischief along with Doug Rose and his world famous Green Mamba Jet Car.
    The Speedway is a quarter-mile, high-banked, asphalt race track with fan-friendly grandstand seating on both sides. The facility has been used for circuses, concerts, car shows, sporting events, swap meets, outdoor sales and numerous community fundraising events.

    Races are good.
    Energy level, positive.
    Playing to the crowd is good.
    Having two announcers, smart.
    Too bad the orange hat guy has to work in tandem with Mr. (i need all the attention and mic time) Mega Ego. (I bet that dude types in ALL CAPS ALL THE TIME TOO!)
    Saying "watch the starter" every single time... (need a better catch phrase)
    I have to agree with Daniel Hunter, Mute button makes this better!

    The announcer though is horrible, TOO MUCH TALKING !
    And get a guy who at least knows his cars, the 1st final he says is between an '09 Cobalt SS - lol.
    He's a pot belly with no car recognition abilities (kinda like reporters) or passion for cars, just makes money screaming random things aloud about them of a piece of paper.

      Most Small tracks can't afford Actual Announcers So they hire pretty much anyone who is willing to do the job not much training is required All you have to do is just sit on a folding chair in a small wooden shack and yell in to a old beatup mic and drink beer all day and try not to sware to much

      @Jappy time - maybe you have too much enthusiasm, you're the kind that enjoys the stupidest things and people and says "it was amazing" or "best I ever seen" - the guy is bad and doesn't even know his cars - is an automotive event !
      So go have another beer although seeing your enjoyment here you probably had enough already.

      Don't know what his problem was....this video is 50% talk, glad some people still have their heads screwed on right.
      You watch those at Seekonk raceway on Carbon Channel the announcer is mild, funny and actually can announce the correct vehicle at the line, plus his mic is half the volume too, this track is more interesting though cause of the longer straight that makes for great come backs by heavier or slower machines.
      As to a small track having a less resources, I fully get that but having a good announcer makes more money to the organizer and makes the experience feel more professional, this being an amateur event one can forgive that though.
      Hmm, the event here has more people watching then IMSA or NASCAR these days so are doing well from sales, place is alive !

      Stephen Braden I think the reason why I said that was because the cobalt slept at the flag waive twice. Honestly though it wouldn’t of mattered. The trans am had too much horsepower.

      Cobalt had preferred line at that track also he was waiting for trans am to line back up not expecting the green to go while trans am was in reverse
