We hope your year is off to a phenomenal start! As we shift gears for the year ahead, we wanted to share some of the exciting experiences we have in store for 2024.
Kicking off our 2024 rally lineup on May 7-10 is the second annual Smoky 600 rally. We're gearing up for a four-day adventure through Appalachia featuring gorgeous group drives, a track day at NCM Motorsports Park, and distillery tours— all leading to an epic grand finale: a spirited morning drive down the legendary Tail of the Dragon, including its 318 curves, bends and hairpin turns. Plus, we'll head out on a bonus afternoon drive along the equally impressive Cherohala Skyway.
Up next, on June 5-12, we're putting a spin on one of our favorite International Adventures: Maranello a Miglia. That’s right! We’re heading back to northern Italy for another deep dive into Italy’s rich automotive heritage. But this time, our grand finale will be a visit to the rousing Mille Miglia open-street race—a tradition dating back to 1927. For eight days, we’ll be visiting the factories, design studios, and car collections that make up the backbone of Italian car culture, not to mention immersing ourselves in Italian food, wine, and tradition along the way.
We will also be launching not one but two brand-new rallies on this side of the pond. On September 18-21, we’re heading to Colorado for our first-ever Colorado Climb. We will be hitting the road for four days of beautiful alpine drives through open roads of Colorado Springs, the picturesque mountains of Vail, and the charming streets of Denver, as well as a drive up the iconic Pikes Peak. We’re also lacing up our boots for some outdoor activities and excursions.
Finally, we’re rounding out the year on November 12-15 with Arizona Desert Run. We’re setting our sights on vibrant red rock canyons and open desert roads. We'll cruise through Paradise Valley, Sedona, Flagstaff, and the sweeping crags of the Grand Canyon. Not to mention, we will be taking on the track at Radford Racing School for a day of lapping, autocross, and ride-alongs with editors and special guests.
Stay tuned for more Road & Track events and experiences to be announced throughout 2024. We hope to see you on the road this year!
