As one of the areas newest facilities;
BeaveRun Motorsports Complex has been designed to comfortably accommodate and
challenge anything with wheels. The two track configurations offer plenty of
technical corners and elevation changes that would rival any track in the
country.
Located in Western Pennsylvannia; just outside Pittsburgh. The
track is easily accessible from Rte 80 and the Pennsylvannia Turnpike. The
track's proximity to Pittsburgh and its location in the countryside of PA, are
sure to make you include a few extra "travel" days to enjoy the area.

The
latest project that very well could become a reality. Located in
Southern New Jersey; Thunderbolt Raceway would bring it all!! In
addition to the multitude of challenging track configurations ( from 2 to 4
miles in length); the Raceway Resort will pamper the drivers. Modern paddocks
and facilities; on-site accommodations; are all in the works to make a weekend
at the track like no other.
The project is currently passing through
its legislative approval processes. The growing support of nearby towns and
officials; are clearing the way to break ground this Spring. You can keep
apprise of legal activities and track development on the NJ Motorsports Park
website.
EMRA has begun conversations with track management. We are
hopefully the relationship yields several dates in 2007.
