Spring Mountain Motor Resort Lauda C 2.6 Mile
The Spring Mountain Motor Resort & Country Club is a motorsports complex founded by John Morris and Brad Rambo in 2004 with a simple concept in mind: providing a challenging and safe space for motor enthusiasts to unleash their passion for speed. The high-end resort facilities allow the families and friends of the drivers to enjoy their stay, with multiple racing-related activities that let them participate in the motorsport action. Located in Pahrump, Nevada, a high desert town an hour ride west from Las Vegas, temperatures tend to be more pleasant than in the rest of the Mojave Desert, with day-to-night temperature variations of up to 68 °F (20 °C). There is no rain or snow to worry about most of the year.
The world-class road course at Spring Mountain Motor Resort & Country Club is one of the most versatile of its kind in America, with more than 50 possible layouts, some of them able to run simultaneously. The track extends for more than 6 miles and includes a wide variety of features for drivers to learn and master. The different layouts receive the name legends of motorsports, such as Villeneuve, Andretti, Fangio, or Senna, to mention a few. The road course also includes replicas of famous corners from other tracks like Watkins Glen "Bus Stop" or Laguna Seca "Corkscrew" so that racing fans can live the experience of going through these features without leaving the resort.
The Lauda C configuration at Spring Mountain Motor Resort honors racing legend Niki Lauda through a specific routing utilizing the C designation at this Nevada facility in Pahrump.
