SPRING VINTAGE WEEKEND
WITH SVRA MAY 16-18
Relive the excitement of Elkhart Lake's
historic open-road racing circuits, once raced
by the world's top drivers. Discover Dicken's
Ditch, Kimberly's Korner, and Schoolhouse
Straight, marked with fourteen historical
markers to commemorate the big names
and the big events that occurred here
between 1950 and 1952.
Picture hay bales at the corners and
thousands of fans cheering as Phil Hill in a
C-type Jaguar crosses the finish line, or John
Fitch in a Cunningham C4R cruising to victory
after 30 laps in front of 100,000 race fans.
In all, 238 cars entered the three races
held in 1952.
These circuits are now listed on the
Wisconsin and National Register of Historic
Places. In 2006, markers were placed
around the race circuits and dedicated at a
ceremony where racers John Fitch and Phil
Hill were honored guests - more than fifty
years after their legendary victories.
