A new Tilke-designed racetrack in Tennessee will open next year, with the aim of attracting international-level events to its 2.67-mile ‘Grand Prix’ road course ⬇️
The Flatrock Motorsports Park and Motorclub will offer three layouts, including a 3.5-mile Circuit Club track, an Endurance layout of almost six miles and a CIK kart track. It aims to become the “premier motorsports park in the US” and is scheduled to open next spring.
“A Tennessee Motorsports Park is a legacy project for me and I am excited, along with our partners, to bring it to Cumberland County, Tennessee,” said Bittle. It is understood that the circuit’s management has already been in discussion with a leading global motorsports series with the intention of running its series at Flatrock in future. The Grand Prix layout will be built to FIA Grade 2 status, ruling out any F1 ambitions.
Flatrock is located in the picturesque Cumberland plateau landscape, featuring natural and rolling elevations that cradle the course design, and has the blessing of local authorities.
