Historic Sportscar Racing is launching a new racing series called the HSR NASCAR Classic presented by Petty’s Garage for HSR’s growing Group 8 Historic Stock Cars division. This series will debut at VIRginia International Raceway on August 23-24 during the IMSA Michelin GT Challenge at VIR event. The NASCAR Classic is open to retired stock cars and is a response to the increasing popularity of the Group 8 Historic Stock Cars category among competitors and fans. The series will feature NASCAR stock cars from different generations, built to previous NASCAR rule book specifications, and must carry authentic and period-correct liveries. The HSR NASCAR Classic rounds will have a maximum of 30 select entries each, and the series is sponsored by Petty’s Garage to coincide with the Petty family’s 75th Anniversary celebration in 2024. The series includes events at other iconic tracks like Watkins Glen and the NASCAR Bank of America ROVAL 400, expanding HSR’s presence in the historic stock car racing scene.
