The 2018 Motul Petit Le Mans Races at Road Atlanta will draw crowds from around the world, but few from our own neighborhood. That’s like living in San Francisco and never riding a cable car. Or like living in Denver and never going to the top of Pike’s Peak. Or like living in N’Orleans and never going to Bourbon Street, even for a glass of sweet tea.
The highlight of the Motul Petit Le Mans races is the 10-hour endurance classic with Prototype vehicles that are the fastest and most technologically advanced cars in North America. Yes, they’re even faster than you-know-who’s Shelby/Rousch/GT Mustang.
Don’t believe it? Come and see for yourself. The testing and practicing begin on Wednesday, October 10, 2018 at 8 AM, with racing from 8 AM on Friday until 11 PM on Saturday the 13th.
The access for fans at Motul Petit Le Mans races at Road Atlanta is unparalleled, as any ticketholder can step right up to their favorite team and driver for an autograph during the autograph session or can catch them at any point during race week in the open paddock.
For the past 20 years, Motul Petit Le Mans has been THE sporting event in the southeast to experience. With four days’ worth of on-track battles, culminating in the 10-hour IMSA WeatherTech Championship finale showdown on Saturday, October 13th, the action is nonstop.
Once you add in the heated manufacturer and team rivalries, kid’s zone, vendors, food trucks, displays, car corrals, camping, Patrón bar, grid walk, autograph sessions and so much more, this event has it all, and at family-friendly prices, too!
The newly-paved Fan Zone is perfect for a bite to eat, a cold drink or to snag a souvenir. The interactive displays, entertainment and memorabilia at the Fan Zone will keep you busy between Motul Petit Le Mans races.
Families can check out the Kid’s Zone on Spectator Hill, one of the best vistas around the track, where parents can let their kids loose on inflatables.
Kids 12 and under enter the events for free with a paid adult.
