2023 Watkins Glen SpeedTour
“Racing is Life…everything that happens before or after is just waiting.” – Michael Delaney (Steve McQueen) in LeMans
To race with a wide variety of vintage cars on the famous WGI circuit would make a great weekend. But throw in the possibility of running your vintage race car in the downtown Vintage Grand Prix re-enactment on the streets and surrounding countryside of the original 6.6-mile street circuit…now that’s a combination that’s hard to beat!
One of the largest annual events at Watkins Glen as well as one of SVRA’s most popular weekends, there will be hundreds of vintage race cars of all ages, makes and models surrounding you. Gala 70th Anniversary celebrations for Featured Marque Corvette will add to the spectacle.
In 1948, the village of Watkins Glen hosted the nation’s first SCCA road race. In 1956, the races were moved to one of the first purpose-built road racing circuits in America. Over the years, Watkins Glen International has been transformed into a smooth, 11-turn, 3.4-mile high-speed road course, with intriguing corners, multiple elevation changes and a long, fast front straight.
Please join SVRA for a fun, fast and exciting race weekend. There is nothing like the Watkins Glen SpeedTour anywhere in the world!
