Gingerman Raceway is our most frequently visited track- we work hand in hand with CGI Motorsports to provide instruction and car rentais during their entire event season.

Gingerman’s course layout was designed to minimize the chance of damaging yourself or your vehicle. Considered the safest track in the region and among the safest of tracks in the nation, his makes the track perfectly suited for both the novice driver who is learning the ropes and the advanced driver who is pushing the threshold.

Located in the picturesque lakeshore town of South Haven, Michigan. visitors are just six miles away from the beach, boutiques, events and dining that bejewel the beachside community. Rather than spending your trip to the track in isolation, the facilities rest on more than 300 acres of land that includes sprawling shaded woods, plenty of paddock space and a pond fully stocked with fish. We believe that visitors to Gingerman should feel the comfort of a state park.

Established in 1995 by racing enthusiast Daniel Schnitta, Dan knew what was important to him as a driver when visiting a race track and his vision is to share that experience with visitors and their families.
