 The DeltaPlex Arena is an indoor arena located north of the city of Grand Rapids. It was previously known as the Grand Rapids Stadium and Turner Arena. |
|
 The facility opened in 1952, and racing was held on the concrete floor from 1952 to 1956. In 2012, the Midwest Indoor Racing Series returned racing to the floor for the first time since 1956. |
|
 From 2008 through 2010, Arena Racing USA had a chapter racing here. There were also Arena Racing USA chapters in Virginia and in North Carolina. |
|
 The aluminum banked track was raised off the floor and was designed to be portable so it be could easily assembled and transported. |
|
 Mini Cup cars were the only class that raced on the Arena Racing USA tracks. |
