Built as a copy of the Playland Speedway in Council Bluffs, the Battle
Speedway was redesigned in 2049 to its current configuration. The
Speedway runs off-road races from April to October featuring cars,
cycles, trikes, and sprint cars. Hovercraft events are sometimes held
as well as winter races. The Speedway is part of the Flashfire
Circuit.
