Birthplace of Stockcar Racing!

The Georgia Racing Hall of Fame Museum is a must-visit destination for motorsports enthusiasts and history buffs alike. As Georgia's official racing museum, we celebrate the rich legacy of auto racing and honor the legends who shaped the sport in the Peach State and beyond.

Our museum offers an immersive experience, showcasing a stunning collection of vintage cars, memorabilia, and interactive exhibits that tell the story of racing’s evolution. From moonshine runners on the backroads of Appalachia to the roaring engines of NASCAR, we highlight the unique connection between Dawsonville and the birth of modern stock car racing.

Visitors can explore the history and achievements of legendary drivers, including "Awesome Bill from Dawsonville"—Bill Elliott, a NASCAR Hall of Famer and hometown hero. Beyond exhibits, we provide engaging activities, including all new state of the art racing simulators that let guests experience the thrill of being behind the wheel.

The Georgia Racing Hall of Fame Museum is more than just a museum; it’s a tribute to the pioneers, the adrenaline, and the passion that define the racing spirit. Whether you're a lifelong fan or discovering the sport for the first time, we invite you to experience the energy and excitement that make racing a true American pastime

Beyond the museum, a full service event can be scheduled for parties, receptions, banquets, riding tours.
