NASA-sanctioned road racing and time trials occurred all weekend on VIR’s 3.27-mile, 18-turn Full Course. Filling two of the run groups was a large and diverse field of roughly 80 entrants of the 2017 Tire Rack® Ultimate Track Car Challenge (UTCC), presented by Grassroots Motorsports magazine—a time-attack styled event that invited basically any competitive track machine out to compete.
