Indeed, the race that will take place at the Virginia International Raceway (VIR) has been pushed a week so as to avoid a date conflict with one of the main vintage car gatherings in the U.S., the Rolex Monterey Motorsports Reunion at the Laguna Seca circuit in California.

The circuit being somewhat short, only the GTLM and GTD classes will race at the circuit in Alton, Virginia.
