2026 Racing America @ COTA

Experience 850 hp Trans Am cars, classic Corvettes, Alfas, Porsches, Historic F.1 and Indy cars racing on this legendary track. Racing America @ COTA provides the opportunity to get up close to celebrated drivers, legendary race cars and much more. The Racing America @ COTA is an event for the whole family so join us for the full weekend; one day won’t be enough! Racing America features racers and cars from Trans Am, Sportscar Vintage Racing (SVRA), & International GT (IGT).

Racing America @ COTA is one of the most popular events on our schedule. Competitors from around the world close their racing season at Circuit of The Americas. 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.

Featuring

America’s Road Racing Series – The Trans Am Series presented by Pirelli offers a feast for the eyes and ears with two races featuring 70+ cars with fields populated by Mustangs, Camaros, Challengers, Corvettes and more in five classes: TA, TA2, XGT, SGT and GT.

The Sportscar Vintage Racing Association (SVRA) is the largest and one of the oldest Vintage racing organizations in the United States. Historic racing cars, restored to original racing specs with modern safety equipment for driver protection, compete on historic race tracks.

The North American racing series includes three championships where late-model Porsche and Ferrari drivers compete on track at the same time for individual class honors in their own and exclusive International GT run group.

Open to all classic, vintage, exotic and collector cars of interest, you are invited to display your car at some of the greatest historic race tracks in the country and take part in the popular touring laps around the track in your show car.
