A Track Built by Enthusiasts for Enthusiasts

CMP’s development began in 1998 when a group of passionate racers and enthusiasts, led by Joe Hooker and Bob Humphreys, set out to create a world-class racing facility in the Southeast. Designed by renowned track designer Alan Wilson, the full 2.3-mile road course officially opened in July 1999. Today, it remains a favorite destination for riders seeking both a challenging layout and a scenic setting.
