Chemung Speedrome in Chemung, New York.

The Chemung Speedrome is a 3/8 mile asphalt race track in Chemung, New York, USA. Built in 1951 by the Bodine family (becoming the home track of Geoff Bodine, Brett Bodine and Todd Bodine), the track was first dirt-surfaced, then paved. It was closed in 1978. After buying the track in 1985, one of the current owners, Bob Stapleton, started to rebuild the track in 1997, and, in 2000, the track held its inaugural event.
