NYORA SPEEDWAY

The Nyora Speedway, at the corner of Grundy Ave and Cornishs Road, Nyora, is significant. The clay speedway has a 380m (approx.) clay dirt motortrack with an internal arena within the circuit, a Southern straight with viewing platform near the finish line and motor pits to the West of the circuit. Spectator areas outside the circuit are pitched for improved view with flattened seating rows. 
Non-original alterations and additions, other than those specified above, are not significant.

The Nyora Speedway, at Grundy Ave and Cornishs Road, is of local social significance to the South Gippsland Shire.

Socially, this speedway is the only speedway within the South Gippsland Shire and the closest motor track is in Drouin or Phillip Island. As such, it is also one of the most significant speedways within the area and used to be part of the World Series Sprinters Quit series. The speedway was, and continues to be a social space for the Nyora community and the broader South Gippsland region as well as a meeting point for speed racing fans in the surrounding areas. The track demonstrates the development of the Nyora community, that can be seen from the track's growth from a very rudimentary circuit without barriers or paving, to a refurbished track that is oval in shape, with safety barriers, pits and overhead floodlights for night racing .
