Mission

Mission Statement

Fantasy Speedway is an educational concept rather than a specific place, location, or facility.  Fantasy Speedway is an organization dedicated to the preservation of Maine’s early era (1949 – 1964) dirt track stock car auto racing history, and intends to accomplish it’s mission through the creation of a “Living Museum” environment in which we are able to familiarize today’s younger citizens with a racing era they were much too young to observe; provide realistic educational opportunities and experiences unveiling this rich racing history; and instill an appreciation of that more primitive time period and circumstance which gave birth and impetus to the stock car racing that we now see taking place in our State.  It is further our mission to assure that the educational experiences provided by Fantasy Speedway’s “Living Museum” environment are of an enjoyable nature that will encourage interest and support in this early period of auto racing history.
