Portsmouth, NH start

Event Chair: Chrisso Rheault eb13@mac.com


While there is no Castle Hill hillclimb this year, we will have a Pre-War Rally and will be joined by the American Bugatti Club.


We will start in Portsmouth, NH and then travel coastal New Hampshire before heading inland. We will visit a private car collection and the New England Racing Museum with lunch along the way and possibly one other stop. For those returning to Portsmouth the total distance will be about 120 miles of gentle but fun roads.


After the museum there will be a route back to Portsmouth, or folks can head to New Hampshire Speedway to watch the 24 Hours of Lemons Race.


Low key and easy going, this will be a great way to get your pre-war car some exercise in the midst of some stellar company! Entry fee includes a box lunch at the Racing Museum.


We will be joined by members of the American Bugatti Club who will have just finished their tour of Southern Maine. This tour is primarily for pre-war sports and touring cars, some post war cars may be allowed at the discretion of the organizing committee.

  • Cost will be $50.00 to cover some expenses and fees.

Empire Cup

May 31-June 1, 2024

VSCCA Vintage Racing Drivers’ School

May 3-4, 2024

Lime Rock Park, Lakeville, CT

You’ll have a great time and will want to return for VSCCA races, hill climbs and rallies. The school is one of the easiest ways to get into vintage racing and with VSCCA approval in hand, you can participate in other VMC vintage organizations’ events across the country..
