The Nashville Short Track will showcase tight, bar-to-bar racing on the venue’s red clay surface, paired with a grassroots atmosphere that continues to resonate with fans across the region.
The event will feature renowned custom motorcycle builder, racer, and Sons of Speed founder Billy Lane as Grand Marshal, marking a new chapter for the venue under his ownership. Recently renamed Sons of Speed Nashville Short Track, the facility reflects Lane’s vision and deep-rooted connection to motorcycle culture.
“I’ve been hooked on motorcycle flat track racing since I saw Bruce Brown’s film On Any Sunday as a kid,” said Lane. “It’s an honor and a thrill to host past, present, and future AMA Grand National Champions at my home track four decades later. Welcome, AFT, to the Sons of Speed Nashville Short Track.”
The Nashville Short Track weekend will feature a full slate of Sons of Speed racing aboard vintage 1000cc V-twins and 750cc American flatheads, bringing the raw power and style of early American motorcycles to the track.
Vintage heat races will take place Thursday, followed by Friday’s finals, setting the stage for Saturday’s Progressive AFT main event and a full weekend of racing action.
Lane’s impact extends beyond the racetrack through his involvement with Northern Tool + Equipment’s Legends Build™ program, which supports the next generation of skilled tradespeople through hands-on training, mentorship, and access to professional-grade tools.
The Nashville Short Track brings together the heritage of the sport, the intensity of modern competition, and a clear focus on the next generation of riders and builders.
