2023 VSCDA Vintage Grand Prix AuGrattan XXXVII (August 11-13, 2023)
2023 VSCDA Grattan Summer Party Invitation
The 37th Grattan Vintage Grand Prix will be a race weekend to remember. This year we are featuring the 100th anniversary of MG and will have an all-MG race to honor the marque.
The Sprite Midget Race Series is celebrating the 12th year since its inception and a record number of Spridgets are expected.
The Trans Am B Sedan series will be back to take on the multidimensional circuit.
Formula Vees will bring a full field and provide us with close, safe, and fast racing action.
Our weekend of racing will provide special opportunities to benefit Disabled American Veterans. A small donation (minimum $20 requested) will get crew, guest, and kids a ride in a race car or sports car to experience this magnificent roller coaster track during our Rides for Charity event. For our drivers, we will once again host Enduro races supporting the Disabled American Veterans charity.
Join us and see why this is the “must attend” event of the summer. You simply cannot pass up the value provided by the substantial amount of track time, challenging wheel-to-wheel racing, friendships and great food. We hope to see you there!
