During the 1950's through the 1980's Edmonton was home to one of the most prominent Motorsport facilities in North America. Numerous Championship racers and leading men in the field today came from Alberta. Unfortunately due to a growing population Edmonton International Speedway was closed due to time and noise restrictions.

In 1991 a lost era of racers came together to fulfill the need for motor sport in Edmonton. Capital Raceway, a four million dollar facility built 20 minutes south of Edmonton was the result of their efforts. Ideally located next to the Edmonton International Airport, Capitol Raceway showed a prosperous future. Noise and time restrictions were no longer a concern, 320 acres of expansion area, and the long Alberta summers were proving to be the beginning of a new era.

Once again however, in 1997 the Edmonton Motorsport community was in turmoil. Capital Raceway was in receivership. It was at this time a local racer named Rob Reeves took it upon himself to keep Motorsports alive in Edmonton (so he would have a place to play). Mr. Reeves brought together a group of 10 local racers and businessmen to rescue the facility from the bank and negotiating a long-term lease with the Edmonton Airport Authority. As President Mr. Reeves and the 9 Directors of the facility opened Labatt Raceway in the spring of 1998.

Rob Reeves along with Director Tim Boychuk, having 3 successful seasons behind them purchased the other Directors shares in the fall of 2000. The partnership of Reeves and Boychuk would prove to be historic. With the new name of Budweiser Motorsports Park, the 2001 race season would see over 100,000 spectators, record numbers at major events, outstanding corporate sponsorship, and the vision of future development.
