Race City Motorsport Park , also known as Race City , was a multi-track auto racing facility located in Calgary, Alberta , Canada . The facility featured a ¼ mile dragstrip , a 3.2 km (2.0 mi) 11-turn road course , and a ½ mile paved short oval.

The Race City grounds, known as Race City Speedway, was a regular host of Warped Tour . ^{[1] [2]}

Race City was due to close around October 9, 2009. However, on September 28, 2009, Calgary city council voted in favour of extending the lease on Race City until 2015. ^[3] This decision was later overturned, and the track officially closed on October 21, 2011 due to expansion of the Shepard landfill.
