Summit Point Raceway
2004 introduced Summit Point’s third and most challenging track! The Shenandoah Circuit!It is completely separate from the original Summit Point Track and Jefferson Circuit, and the most technically demanding new track in America.Pushing the envelope in its use of vertical relief and incorporating an exact replica of the famous Karussell at Germany’s fabled Nurbürgring, the Shenandoah Circuit, at 1.7 miles for racing and 2.1 miles for club events, will be a spectator’s and driver’s dream come true. Visit Summit Point on any given weekend and watch or participate in three separate events. Events? Wheel-to-wheel sports car, motorcycle, and go-kart racing. Many entrants jam the track with excitement. VINTAGE RACING Brian Redman’s 15th Annual “Jefferson 500” will be held on May 20-22. Brian always lines up a fantastic group of cars. HYPE “R” FEST And don’t forget our 3rd Annual Hype “R” Fest, on July 16. Last year’s event saw huge numbers of beautifully turned out rocket-sled sub-compacts strut their stuff all over the Summit Point grounds. Drifting contests and spectacular fireworks display included. It’s what the younger generation is “ga-ga” over and promises to be a ball. Don’t miss it! Getting you on the track Summit Point has the most active programs in the country for getting you on the track. That’s right, you have more opportunities here, compared to any other track, to get on the asphalt for high-performance recreational driving or highway safety training.
