Lake View Motor Speedway Teams With Ultra Broadcasting For 2025
FLORENCE, SC (February 11) – Lake View Motor Speedway owner Scott Tripp and Steve Zacharias of Ultra Broadcasting announced today that every 2025 event at the 4/10-mile speedway will be streamed live for subscribers on Ultra Broadcasting. Several events have been live-streamed at Lake View since Tripp took ownership of the speedway in 2018, but it will be the first time that fans around the world will be able to view an entire season of events.
“Ultra Broadcasting is an up-and-coming service that we felt best could present the entire season of racing at Lake View Motor Speedway,” said Tripp. “Streaming from various services over the last few years has brought nationwide attention to individual events at Lake View. With more and more racers traveling to Lake View from farther distances, the time was right to expand our streaming footprint for their families and friends to watch on Ultra Broadcasting.”
Ultra Broadcasting is the newest streaming service on the racing landscape. After a very successful debut recently with their production of the Icebreaker at Florence Motor Speedway, Ultra Broadcasting is excited to bring the entire season of dirt track racing at Lake View to their growing streaming service. The entire racing season at Lake View and Florence will be streamed on Ultra Broadcasting, along with Southern National Motorsports Park and Anderson Motor Speedway events.
“We have taken a lot of time and effort over the last few months to get Ultra Broadcasting going and could not be more thrilled to have Lake View Motor Speedway join our platform,” said Zacharias. “Ultra Broadcasting is all about short track racing, and Lake View perfectly complements what we are trying to accomplish. The response to our broadcast of the Icebreaker was extremely positive and was a broadcast we were very proud to show off for our fans. We’re just at the beginning and hope to make Ultra the place to go for short track racing.”
The next broadcast for Ultra Broadcasting will be on Saturday, March 1, with the regular season opener at Florence Motor Speedway. Ultra Broadcasting’s first broadcast at Lake View Motor Speedway will be on Saturday, March 22, featuring the Blue Ridge Outlaw Late Models.

Opening in 1981, Lake View Motor Speedway has over 40 years of bringing great dirt track racing to fans in the eastern Carolinas.
