ABOUT THE HAWKEYE DOWNS WALL OF FAME

The Hawkeye Downs Wall of Fame was formed by Hawkeye Downs supporters in 2002. This special group of volunteers recognizes the individuals and organizations who have made Hawkeye Downs great since 1925. The Wall of Fame members include drivers, race crew, fabricators, engine builders, sponsors, officials, and fans. Each year, the Hawkeye Downs Wall of Fame organizers honor new members by inducting them into the Wall of Fame during the intermission of a special Friday night race. The 2025 Wall of Fame Night will be held on Friday, July 25th, at Hawkeye Downs Speedway. The 2025 honorees include Bob Ballard, Landon Cassill, Max Rogers, Ken Schraeder, and Jim Williams.
