Legends of Schenley Park

The Pittsburgh Vintage Grand Prix is grateful to all the drivers that compete and we truly appreciate when they return to race with us year after year. They make our Schenley Park vintage races so special. To acknowledge their contributions, we created the “Legends of Schenley Park” in 2016 – honoring racers that have raced through the streets of Schenley Park for 15 or more years.

Once they reach 15 races, Legends are presented with a commemorative patch and chair. To date, 64 drivers have qualified. Most have been recognized and awarded embroidered race suit patches and a special gift.
