About this event
“I am an artist. The track is my canvas and my car is my brush”– Graham Hill
Austin SpeedTour is one of the most popular events on our schedule. Competitors from around the world close their racing season at Circuit of The Americas. SVRA invites all vintage racers to experience this world-class facility —grab some sprint race points and/or win a coveted Golden Bell Championship helmet.
Opened in 2012, Circuit of The Americas is the first modern purpose-built Grand Prix facility in the United States and annually hosts the U.S. Grand Prix for Formula One. Designed by Hermann Tilke, creator of many current Formula One tracks around the world, the 20-turn, 3.4-mile circuit climbs to a tight hairpin at the crest of a 133 foot incline. This dazzling Turn One is followed by a series of fast sweeping corners, hairpin turns and high-speed straightaways.
Don’t miss this opportunity to vintage race on a modern, world-class Formula One track.
