Veteran Car Tour

Audrain Motorsport is proud to announce the third annual Newport-Bristol-Newport Veteran Car Tour that will be once again setting off in style on Sunday, April 28, 2024. The first two Audrain Veteran Car Tour were truly a celebration of the early days of motoring, with many brass-era car collectors from New England and across the United States taking part. The event is open to suitable cars built prior to 1908. The event is unique in the United States, and we are thrilled that it is thought of in a similar way to the world-famous London to Brighton Veteran Car Run which has been in existence in England for over a century – something we are immensely proud to support!
