Registrations are now being accepted for our 7th Annual Green Grand Prix.
Online registration is on our website Welcome To The Official Green Grand Prix Web Site . We expect to have our first joint news release with WGI next week, but I wanted to give our past entrants first chance to register. We expect to see many new registrations once this event is publicized. In terms of track time alone, it is by far the most affordable way you will ever spend two hours in competition on the famous Watkins Glen Grand Prix circuit.
