Barber Motorsports Park

Barber Motorsports Park is an 880 acres (360 ha) racing facility in Birmingham, Alabama.

Barber is noted for its landscaping and greenery; the track has been referred to as "The Augusta National of Motorsports".

The track and adjacent 150-foot-by-350-foot wet/dry skid pad are used for a variety of purposes, including defensive driver training, safety instruction, product debuts, and vehicle testing.

Located on the hill overlooking the proving ground is a two-level, 9,800-square-foot (910 m2) building that provides rental space for meetings, luncheons, product introductions, and seminars.

Two garage units totaling 16,800 square foot (1,560 m2) also stand in the vicinity of the Barber Proving Grounds.

A functional kinetic, wind-powered sculpture created by artist Edward Lee Hendricks is located nearby a pond along the track's perimeter road.

Standing in front of the Barber Museum are three stainless steel monuments by sculptor Theodore Gall, called The Chase.

After the success of The Art of the Motorcycle, Barber set out to create a unique facility complete with a track.

In designing the complex, Barber consulted with world champion racers John Surtees and Dan Gurney.

They come from 16 countries and represent over 140 different marques from as far away from the US as Australia, New Zealand, and Sweden.As of September 2024, the fastest official race lap records on the Barber Motorsports Park are listed as:
