Speed - Made in America

Ridge Motorsports Park is the Pacific Northwest’s premier destination motorsports complex.  Ridge is located near the city of Shelton, between the picturesque Cascade and Olympic mountain ranges, in Mason County, the birthplace of racing in Washington State.  Set in a relaxed rural natural forest environment with stunning views of Mt. Rainier and Mt. St. Helens, only minutes from The Olympic National Forest and scenic Hood Canal.

Development of the 170 acre site began in earnest in 2009.  Asphalt for the road course was laid in November 2011.  40 feet wide, 2.47 miles in length, with 16 turns, and has over 300 feet of elevation gain and loss per lap, including the 50 foot plunge down the Ridge Complex.  Each lap of Ridge Motorsports Park road circuit thrills with high-speed straights and sweeper turns, huge compressions, and blind weightless crests, challenging esses, a long carousel turn where you walk the tightrope between speed and grip, a double-apex turn leading to another valley and cresting turn leading into a heavy braking zone, a short sprint between tight turns and finally a breathtaking plunge into a technically difficult sequence of turns, before going hammer down on the front straight again! All of this in a park-like forest setting, with stunning territorial and mountain views.
