Letter From the CEO 

Welcome to the Mid-Ohio SpeedTour!  We’re so happy to be racing at Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course.

Cars spanning over 75 years of racing and technology will be on the track and on display. Our paddocks are rich with history showcasing racing icons that include: Lotus, Alfa Romeo, Ford, Mazda, Porsche, Brabham, among many more.

Now in its 40th year, the Mid-Ohio Vintage Grand Prix has grown into a time-honored tradition and one of  SVRA’s best race weekends of the year.

The Trans Am Series presented by Pirelli, SVRA, International GT, FR Americas and the Formula 4 United States Championship powered by Honda have come to challenge Mid-Ohio’s, 13-turn, 2.5-mile road course. 

I hope that you take the opportunity to meet the racers, crews and car owners to learn about and enjoy the racing series that are here this weekend.

This SpeedTour event will be live streamed, too! We invite you, your friends and family to enjoy an enhanced race experience by downloading the Trans Am and SVRA Apps. The live stream broadcasts offer over 11 hours of real-time race coverage.  In addition, the App provides the event program, race results, late-breaking news and much more .

There are plenty of trackside activities to enjoy. Take some time to check out vendor row, enjoy a track side picnic lunch and introduce yourself to a driver. Saturday’s Car Show displays everything from the classics to rat rods and muscle cars.

Be it learning about a unique race car, meeting a famous driver or getting a rare autograph, your visit to the Mid-Ohio SpeedTour is sure to be memorable.

Ladies and gentlemen, start your engines. Let’s go racing!
