American manufacturers Chevrolet and Ford compete against famous European rivals like Ferrari, Porsche, Jaguar, and MG in SVRA’s 11 racing groups.
The popular Indy Legends Pro-Am Charity race will return on Saturday, June 13th, pairing veteran Indianapolis 500 drivers with amateur racing partners for a 45-minute race on the road course. Cars competing in the Legends Pro-Am Charity race will be 1963–1972 Chevrolet Corvettes, Camaros, and Ford Mustangs. The Road Circuit will be revised in 2015 to provide a better track experience for the competitor.
