One of Ohio’s favorite dirt tracks, Limaland Motorsports Park is known to locals as Northwest Ohio’s Quarter Mile of Thunder. The track is owned and operated by the University of Northern Ohio (UNOH) and host Friday night racing throughout the racing season. This offers the university students a unique opportunity to compete in professional level racing while attending school.

Limaland was one of the first dirt tracks iRacing scanned and the track provided invaluable assistance in the overall development of dirt oval racing to iRacing. In addition to our laser scan team visiting the track, iRacing engineering also made the trip to experience first-hand the intricacies of a dynamic dirt track surface.

Originally opened in 1935, Limaland Motorsports Park hosts a variety of dirt classes on a weekly basis included including UMP Modifieds.
