Aghadowey Stadium Raceway

About

Aghadowey Stadium Raceway, also known as Aghadowey Oval Raceway, is a well-established oval racing venue located near the village of Aghadowey in County Londonderry, Northern Ireland. Set in a rural location, the circuit is a prominent fixture on the Northern Irish oval racing calendar and has a long-standing tradition of grassroots motorsport.

For BriSCA-style oval racing, Aghadowey operates a compact shale oval that regularly hosts a range of domestic stock car, hot rod, and banger formulas under the promotion of DMC Race Promotions. The tight and enclosed layout creates close-quarters racing conditions, frequent contact, and constant on-track action, making the circuit both challenging for drivers and entertaining for spectators
