    Default FIA Graded Tracks in N America

    Putting together a dream list of where I need to go racin', here's the tracks with FIA ratings on the continent (not counting street circuits like Long Beach and Montreal):

    Grade 1
    • COTA
    • Indy Road Course
    • Autodromo Hermanos Rodriquez


    Grade 2
    • Barber
    • Lime Rock
    • Mid-Ohio
    • New Jersey MP
    • Portland
    • Road America
    • Road Atlanta
    • Sebring
    • Sonoma
    • VIR
    • Watkins Glen
    • Laguna Seca


    Grade 3
    • Trois Rivieres
    • Homestead Miami
    • Autodromo Miguel E. Abed


    Interesting that Daytona and Mosport are not FIA rated, guess they don't bother applying.

    For extra points, how many of them have YOU raced at?

    Have you been to the Ridge? Given where it's located, it should definitely make your list.

    Driven at 5 of them and crewed at all of them except VIR and Watkins Glen. No idea how I have managed to miss those two.
    I thought that Barber was Grade 1a or that it was in the past
    I am really surprised that the Daytona road course is not listed since the 24 is an FIA listed event. I know that ovals are not graded

    Yeah, many times. Personally, I think it could get at least a Grade 3 rating if they wanted to go for it. Pacific Raceways still has too many trees, ditches and berms to be a world-class facility.

    I have raced at 10 of these and have been a Runoffs steward at 2 others.
