Wanneroo is home to the Barbagallo Raceway, a 2.411 km (1.498 mi) road racing circuit. Barbagallo, which opened in 1969, is the home of motor racing in Western Australia and hosts an annual round of the V8 Supercars championship.

Wanneroo is also home to the Pinjar Park Speedway which opened in 2005. Pinjar Park is a {{convert|142|m|yd}} Motorcycle speedway which regularly hosts national and international meetings and caters to both senior and junior solo and sidecar racing. Pinjar Park is considered small for a speedway in Australia, with most tracks around the country ranging from {{convert|350|m|yd}} to {{convert|600|m|yd}} in length. For the bikes, the speedway replaced the old {{convert|550|m|yd}} Claremont Speedway which had run from 1927 until 2000, and the Bibra Lake Speedway which closed in 2004.
