Tucked away in the rolling countryside of Garrettsville, Ohio, the Nelson Ledges Road Course is legendary for being one of the fastest, most fluid road courses in North America. Spanning a lightning-fast 3.2 km (2.0 miles) with 7 major turns (13 counting every corner), its design is famously defined by the sweeping Carousel, a section added in the track’s early evolution to nearly double its original length. The track’s development is a true grassroots story, born in 1958 when an ambitious landowner and a bulldozer carved a basic dirt track out of a local potato farm. Formally paved in the early 1960s and expanded through a partnership with Gulf Oil in 1970, the circuit completely bypassed over-engineered architectural blueprints in favor of a natural, high-speed flow that rewards momentum and demands absolute bravery.
Nelson Ledges holds a revered spot in motorsport history as a pioneering hub for endurance racing. In 1968, it hosted the 24 Hours of Nelson Ledges, which stood for years as the only continuous 24-hour motorcycle race in the United States. Even more notably, it birthed "The Longest Day of Nelson" in 1980—a grueling 24-hour showroom-stock automobile endurance race for teams of drivers. The circuit has also welcomed the Trans-Am Series. It was also the first track in the United States to be completely covered by tire walls, a pioneering safety feature. Following major modern renovations, including a complete repaving in 2018, the circuit is as vibrant today as it ever was, serving as a favorite playground for ChampCar endurance series, SCCA club racing, and high-performance track days.
