Huntington Beach Speedway (later called Beach Speedway, Talbert Stadium, Huntington Beach Stadium, and American Legion Stadium) was a motorsports racetrack located in Huntington Beach, California. Designed to host midget car racing, the venue also featured motorcycle races as well as auto polo and other forms of motorsports. The racetrack operated from 1946 until May 1958 when it closed due to dwindling attendance.[1]
