Nelson Ledges Road Course is a paved automobile and motorcycle racing circuit in Garrettsville, Ohio which first opened as a dirt track in 1958.

Under founder Marvin Drucker, Nelson Ledges Road Course became a pioneering facility in amateur racing, starting programs that quickly became standard at racetracks around the country including tire barriers, a wide use of driver schools, member days, and showroom stock endurance racing.

Much of this programming was spearheaded by General Overall Director John McGill, who took over management of the track that was considered "ghost-track status" by the end of the 1960s.

[4] Drucker, looking to improve safety standards on the track, realized that the close proximity to Goodyear's Akron manufacturing facility meant tires were cheap and plentiful.

[5] In 1997, track manager John McGill called the surface "too trashed" to host the Longest Day of Nelson, and that too was discontinued.
