Uniontown Speedway was a wooden board track in Hopwood, near Uniontown, Pennsylvania. The track was built in 1916, after the Summit Mountain Hill Climbs were outlawed, and held its final race in June 1922.

Laemmle's company filmed each race, playing them at local theaters. Two National Championship races were held at Uniontown, in 1921 a
