Barber Motorsports Park
Birmingham, Alabama
While Barber is primarily a race track,
it also serves as the 150 day a year home
to the Porsche Driving Experience, America’s
highest speed training program. The track
design and layout enables Porsche enthusiasts
of all skill levels to learn the art of driving
these powerful and sometimes difficult to
handle cars at their and their driver’s
limits. This experience has become a much
sought after addendum to the pride of ownership
for Porsche fans which offers a high speed
experience that is educational, challenging,
exciting and safe.

“…The new track
is being built on a scale I had scarcely imagined.
It’s a beautiful, wide, 2.4 mile circuit,
that sweeps up-and downhill in a natural amphitheater
setting amid the pines, but with large grassy
run-off areas, full landscaping with shrubs and
flowers, huge paved paddock areas, a large lake
and numerous access roads to hillside seating.
When it’s done, it should look like a well-groomed
combination of Watkins Glen and the Salzburgring
in Austria…my own feeling is that it’s
going to be one of the most beautiful racetracks
in North America. Maybe the most beautiful…”
