Atlanta Motorsports Park (AMP) received the 2023 Outstanding Facility Award, presented by SPEED SPORT, at the Race Track Owner’s Conference, held in conjunction with the PRI Show in Indianapolis.

The award recognizes AMP’s “unwavering commitment to excellence and innovation in the high-performance driving and racing industry, setting a high benchmark for facilities worldwide,” the company stated in a press release.

“This award is a testament to the hard work and dedication of our team,” said Jeremy Porter, CEO of Atlanta Motorsports Park. “We’re honored to be recognized and excited for the future as we continue to innovate and provide unparalleled experiences for our members and guests.”

AMP continuously pursues methods of enhancing the member and visitor experience, including its latest facility upgrades, officials noted. This year the park launched the third phase of its luxury member condo development, as well as a new, exclusive lounge and sky viewing deck for members.

Other notable new enhancements include the installation of 10 Level 3 fast chargers for high-performance electric vehicles, signifying a step forward in embracing sustainable racing technologies, the release stated. AMP said it’s the first track in North America to offer such extensive EV charging capabilities.

“For 90 years, SPEED SPORT has been chronicling the greatest stories in motorsports—from the world’s greatest tracks. Atlanta Motorsports Park certainly deserves a place amongst the best,” said Joe Tripp, CEO, SPEED SPORT. “The Outstanding Facility of the Year award is our way of celebrating these amazing venues and the outstanding contribution they make to our sport.”

Strategic partnerships also play a pivotal role in AMP’s success, the release explained. Its 2023 collaboration with Caffeine and Octane Lanier Raceway for the Caffeine and Exotics at AMP event showcased the park’s ability to host premier automotive events and foster community engagement.

Earlier this year, the city of Dawsonville, Georgia, granted AMP critical zoning approvals, paving the way for a further expansion.

“This exciting new development promises even more heart-pounding experiences for motorsports enthusiasts and casual visitors, reinforcing AMP’s position as a leader in the industry,” track officials stated.
