Originally opened in 1957, VIR’s first official event was an SCCA race that attracted stars like Carroll Shelby, Carl Haas and Bob Holbert.  The track soon became a fixture on the SCCA circuit and a favorite among racers due to its high-speed straights, challenging turns and dramatic elevation changes. Since its rebirth in 2000, the historic track has emerged as a world-class road racing circuit hosting SCCA events, as well as top professional sports car and motorcycle racing series in America. Additionally, VIR will host the 2019 National Championship Runoffs®
