The PVGP is partnering with Autoventure to stage the 60th GT40 Reunion during our Historics Race Weekend on July 26-28, 2024, at Pittsburgh International Race Complex.

The legendary GT40 turns 60 this year, and a grand reunion is planned in conjunction with the Pittsburgh Vintage Grand Prix’s Historic Races at Pittsburgh International Race Complex in Wampum, PA, July 26 through 28, 2024.

It’s hard to believe that the GT40 has existed for 60 years. It seems not long ago that it was the first American car to win the prestigious 24 Hours of Le Mans. The Ford GT40 was first raced in May 1964 at Nürburgring. The mystique of this legendary car grows with time. This gathering will feature original GT40 race cars, recreations, and modern-day versions like the Ford GT. This is your chance to see them up close this summer in Pittsburgh.

The paddock and VDA at Pitt Race will be packed with GT40s and enthusiasts of this historic car. There will be track sessions on Friday, Saturday and Sunday, with the GT40 Featured Race on Sunday afternoon. Schedule

About Autoventure

Rick Muck, Managing Director of AutoventureUSA, the official host of the GT40 Reunion, stated, “I have had the pleasure of attending two GT reunions, the 1989 Watkins Glen event and the 2009 Reunion at Road America. Anyone who was at one of these understands the historic nature of the event, the incredible cars, and the history and comradery that takes place there”. AutoventureUSA manufactures and distributes specialty parts primarily for Cobras, both original and replica, as well as parts for the Superformance GT40s. In conjunction with the Ford dealership, he imported and distributed the Autokraft AC MK IV “Cobra” in the 80’s after being involved with the certification of the car to US regulations.
