Road America is the world’s fastest permanent road course located in Elkhart Lake, Wisconsin - midway between the cities of Milwaukee and Green Bay and only minutes from the shores of Elkhart Lake and Lake Michigan.

Situated on 640 rolling acres of Wisconsin’s Kettle Moraine, RA has hosted races since September of 1955 and currently hosts over 400 events a year. Of its annual events, 9 major weekends are open to the public May through October featuring 3 motorcycle events including the AMA Superbike series, 3 vintage car events, Sports Car Club of America (SCCA) events, the American Le Mans Series and the SPEED World Challenge to name a few.

Road America is one of only a hand-full of road circuits in the world maintaining its original configuration being 4.048 miles in length and 14 turns. The track features many elevation changes, along with a long front stretch where speeds approaching 200 mph (300 km/h) may be reached. One of the best known features of this course is a turn on the backside known as "the kink." Although Road America as a whole is extremely challenging, “the kink” tests both machine and its driver or rider to the limit.

Being so expansive, Road America offers open seating which allows spectators to venture through-out the grounds, finding their favorite viewing spot at their leisure. Grandstands are available in several locations as well as permanent hillside seating where crowds of more than 150,000 may be accommodated. The facility includes thirteen concession stands and allows both tent and RV camping onsite for an additional fee. Complimentary perimeter parking is offered to spectators and children age 12 and under are admitted free when accompanied by an adult. Road America prides itself on its family friendly atmosphere and beautiful natural surroundings.
