A small, 3,084m track located in northern West Virginia. It was constructed in 1984 and was renovated in 2008, adding new extensions that expanded the uses of the track. This renovation also included widening the circuit from 9m to 12m all around, with the intention of growing the circuit's appeal to a wider variety of regional championships.

Alongside your regular track days, this circuit is also visited by a handful of regional SCCA events such as SRF's, Formula Ford, B-Spec, etc. Its final section of turns is also often used for open drifting days, and different layouts can be combined for time attack events.

Recently came across some old footage of the Dun Laoghaire Grand Prix, so I wanted to chart it out and share it here. It's a strange design

For a little explanation, Dun Laoghaire is a town south of Dublin, Ireland. It's mostly been absorbed into the city at this point, but in the 80's, for whatever reason, the town decided to hold a race. They had Formula 2000 and some historic car racing from the footage I found.

It's a 0.92 mile long circuit with 9 turns. From the footage, it appears the finish line was before the sweeping turn on Cumberland Street, but I was unable to confirm the start line.

Turn 2 through Turn 4 is perhaps the most bizarre set of turns I've ever seen, where it turns onto a small residential street, before turning back onto Longford Road (the long winding back straight).

Most of the action seemed to occur at the turnoff to Clarence Street (the hairpin at the top right of frame). Most of the footage focused on that corner, especially the RTE news coverage of the event.

From what I know, this event only happened for one year. But from what the layout looked like, it's not a surprise. Hope this little tidbit of racing history interests you all.
