Michelin Raceway Road Atlanta

Michelin Raceway Road Atlanta is a 2.54-mile, 12-turn permanent road course set in the rolling hills of Hall County near Braselton, Georgia, north of Atlanta. Opened in 1970, the circuit has long been regarded as one of the most challenging and rewarding natural-terrain road courses in North America, combining fast sweeping corners, dramatic elevation changes, and a high-speed approach to its signature esses.

The track is best known as the home of Petit Le Mans, the endurance classic that anchors the IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship season. Over its history Road Atlanta has hosted a deep roster of premier series, including Trans-Am, the Can-Am, MotoAmerica superbike racing, GT World Challenge America, and the SCCA National Championship Runoffs, with the amateur Runoffs scheduled to return in 2027 and 2028. The facility has been owned by NASCAR via IMSA Holdings since 2012 and carries an FIA Grade 2 rating.

For drivers, Road Atlanta is a true proving ground. Its blind crests, committed high-speed esses, and demanding braking zones reward precision, car control, and the confidence to use every inch of the track. That mix of speed, rhythm, and consequence makes it an ideal environment for serious skills development, which is why it remains a favorite venue for racing schools, track programs, and competitors looking to sharpen their craft.
