After a hiatus of two years due to the pandemic, the International Motor Racing Research Center (IMRRC) is again partnering with the Society of Automotive Historians (SAH) to present the Sixth Michael R. Argetsinger Symposium on Motor Racing history. The event, geared to both motor racing scholars and racing enthusiasts, will take place on Friday and Saturday, November 4 and 5, 2022. In conjunction with the on-site sessions in Watkins Glen, open to the public at no charge, the Symposium hopes to provide virtual capability to allow remote attendance and participation for a modest fee. Over the last several years the Symposium has established itself as a unique and respected scholarly forum and has gained a growing audience of students and enthusiasts.
The Michael R. Argetsinger Symposium provides an opportunity for scholars, researchers and motor racing writers of all descriptions to present their work related to the history of automotive competition and the cultural impact of motor racing to their peers and to the motor racing community in general.
