(SVBCC) Jefferson 500 – Summit Point

ADDENDUM — May 14:

Because of the forecast for rain, we have cancelled our weekend motel reservations and will go for a day at a time (on Saturday for the Trials and/ or on Sunday for the Races), if the weather permits, as rain cancels our participation.  Please contact me with any questions.

Join former Club member Ken Brasfield and me for another thrilling weekend of vintage racing at Summit Point Raceway.

The event will run 5/16-19; come for the whole weekend or for part of a day. More information on the event here.

Ken and I will leave from the Charlottesville area Friday 5/17 and return Sunday 5/19. We have weekend accommodations at the Rodeway Inn in Charlestown, WV–located about 20 minutes east of Summit Point WV. We bring camp chairs, beverages, and munchies but rely on the snack bar for burgers, fries, and such.  We usually set up in the Infield across from the principal grandstand then scope out different views from other parts of the track.

Many of us have attended the Jefferson 500 in the past and have enjoyed its excellent competition and high quality race cars. Some Club members have competed in the 500…not sure if any will race this year. British  driver Brian Redman used to compete regularly in a Chevron but I have not seen him in several years.

For further information contact me.
