Circuit
Roebling Road Raceway is a permanent road course located at Bloomingdale, near Savannah in the U.S. state of Georgia. The circuit opened in August 1958 as Savannah International Raceway, built on former farmland by amateur racer Robert Roebling, great-grandson of Brooklyn Bridge designer John A. Roebling, partly using highway-construction equipment that graded the course to road-building specifications. The abrasive original surface deterred competitors and entries dwindled until SCCA member Tom Nehl bought the track in the early 1970s and the Savannah and Gator regions merged to form the Buccaneer Region. The venue was renamed in honour of Roebling in 1976 and was resurfaced using a formula modelled on nearby Road Atlanta, after which its popularity grew. The Buccaneer Region of the SCCA bought the track outright in 1992 and an optional chicane complex was added to the front straight in 1997 alongside another resurfacing. The main 2.02-mile asphalt course runs nine corners, with up to twelve when the alternate chicane layout is used, across a 33-foot-wide ribbon known for fast sweeping combinations. Today it is a busy non-spectator club facility used more than 300 days a year by the SCCA and other car and motorcycle clubs, and the PBS series MotorWeek records its winter track tests here.
The 2.02-mile asphalt main course strings together nine corners over a 33-foot-wide surface, renowned for its fast sequences of sweeping bends. An optional front-straight chicane complex adds up to three extra turns when run as the alternate layout.
