IMSA Insider:  See What’s Brewing at Packed Road America IMSA Weekend

DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. – The IMSA WeatherTech SportsCar Championship’s annual midsummer tour of North America’s iconic road courses continues with a trip to Road America for the Motul SportsCar Grand Prix. Opened in 1955 and celebrating its 70th anniversary in 2025, the 14-turn, 4.048-mile circuit’s basic layout has had minimal design changes albeit several surface changes.

Set an hour north of Milwaukee in Elkhart Lake, Wis., the track has rightly earned the nickname “America’s National Park of Speed.” It’s an apt moniker, one that pays homage to the bucolic nature of the facility’s park-like 640 acres along with the breathtaking character of a track where some of the world’s fastest race cars may top 175 mph three times each lap.
