Grattan Raceway, considered one of the finest road courses in America, is located just 25 miles northeast of Grand Rapids, Michigan. The picturesque two-mile course features ten challenging turns, a 3,200-foot straight, and an average width of 40 feet, providing an excellent racing surface. The newly repaved track offers a winding, hilly, and complex assortment of corners, including uphill and descending radius turns, a flat-out dogleg, a hidden apex, a Monza bowl, and a downhill reverse camber turn. Grattan Raceway is a family-owned facility known for its technical layout that requires dedicated learning. The staff is praised for maintaining a safe environment, though the facilities could use some upgrades. Nonetheless, the track is a great place for both novice and experienced drivers to enjoy their favorite cars and bikes. From vintage racers to open-wheel vehicles, Grattan Raceway is a blast for weekend enthusiasts, with concessions and excellent viewing areas throughout the course.
Grattan during my Motorcycle racing years was home away from home. It was like visiting an old friend. Things have certainly changed as far as bikes and haulers go.
