HAGERSVILLE, ON – Jukasa Motor Speedway co-founder Ken Hill has passed away; he was 62. Hill, a prominent entrepreneur from Six Nations of the Grand River Territory, was in Miami at the time of his passing on January 18.

It was his vision for the Speedway that led to the resurrection of the former Cayuga Speedway, which previously hosted many of the world’s best stock car and open-wheel participants, such as Bobby Allison, Dale Earnhardt, Rusty Wallace, Darrel Waltrip, and Junior Hanley.

After acquiring the former Cayuga Speedway in 2014, Hill’s goal was for it to once again become Canada’s premier racing and entertainment facility.  By all accounts, he fulfilled his vision to the delight of motor racing fans from across North America. Hill had a true passion for racing, attended most events since the Speedway’s re-opening, and frequently took the time to speak with race participants and fans, often thanking them for coming to Jukasa Motor Speedway.

Our deepest condolences to Hill’s family and friends and especially to those at Jukasa Motor Speedway.
