Veterans Race of Remembrance

The CrowdStrike Veterans Race of Remembrance Powered by AWS returns November 6–8, 2026, at VIRginia International Raceway as North America’s premier endurance motorsport event dedicated to honoring military service and advancing veteran recovery through motorsport. Sanctioned by the United States Auto Club (USAC) and presented in partnership with CrowdStrike and Amazon Web Services, the event is held annually over Veterans / Remembrance Day weekend and stands as a powerful tribute to those who have served. 

Inspired by the original Race of Remembrance founded by Mission Motorsport in the United Kingdom, the 2026 edition introduces an expanded endurance format highlighted by an 8-hour, multi-class endurance race designed to accommodate four-driver lineups and deliver greater competitive and commemorative value. The race will again pause mid-event for a solemn Remembrance Service, ensuring reflection remains at the heart of the competition.

The 2026 program features a strengthened class structure, including dedicated prototype categories for Sebeco and Radical machinery, alongside GT and touring-based classes, plus additional sprint races and a full open test day included for entered teams. Across more than 18 hours of total track activity, the event brings together veterans, professional and amateur racers, teams, partners, and supporters in a shared mission—honoring sacrifice, restoring purpose, and demonstrating the healing power of motorsport.
