In 1955, a group of North Carolina car enthusiasts wanted to build a track to race sports cars.
They found the perfect site in southern Virginia close to the North Carolina state line. Operating
officially as Sports Car Enterprises, VIRginia International Raceway opened for business in
August of 1957 and became a staple on the Sports Car Club of America racing circuit. VIR fell
on hard times in the early 1970s and reverted to farm land for 25 years until 1998, when
investors Connie Nyholm and Harvey Siegel decided to resurrect VIR. In 2000 VIR reopened
and was renovated to become a world-class road racing circuit, transforming VIR into America's
first "motorsport resort." Nyholm has operated VIR since 2013 and is one of the few female
majority owners of a racetrack in the country.

Hosts approximately VIR has been recognized by Car

10 events annually. and Driver magazine as one of
the top six road courses in the
U.S.
