Central New York Raceway Park is a motorsports complex currently under construction in Central Square, New York, United States.[1] The complex will feature a 2.2 mile (3.54 km) road course and a 5/8 mile synthetic dirt oval for both auto & harness racing. The 2.2 mile road course was designed by Peter Argetsinger and will be the only natural terrain road course in North America featuring a permanent lighting system. The 5/8 mile synthetic dirt oval will also feature a smaller oval for go-karts and flat track speedway bike racing.
In September 2015, the track announced that the 5/8 mile synthetic dirt oval will host Super DIRT Week featuring the Super DIRTcar Series starting in 2016.[2] While the road course & oval tracks have been under development, the circuit also hosts the SCCA CNY Region Rallycross.[3]
In March 2016, the track announced that the 5/8 mile synthetic dirt oval will host the AMA Pro Flat Track on August 20, 2016. CNYRP also announced that MotoAmerica will race on the 2.2 mile road course in 2017.[4]
Construction on the road course and dirt track stalled in 2016, and as of 2021 the project effectively remains in limbo.[5]
