Silver State Classic Challenge

The Silver State Classic Challenge is an authorized Open Road Racing event that is run since 1988 on a 90 mi (140 km) stretch of State Route 318 in Nevada, United States, which is closed for the occasion.

It is called the fastest road race in the world by Guinness,^[1] It was the venue for the highest speed achieved in an open road race, when Robert “Bob” Allyn and David Bauer averaged 219.643 mph (353.481 km/h) in 2017,^[1] in a 2001 Chevrolet Monte Carlo stock car, as used in NASCAR racing. Although high-speed race cars receive much of the publicity, the majority of participants take part in mainstream street cars at average speeds ranging from 95 to 155 mph (153 to 249 km/h). These cars run the gamut from sports cars such as Corvettes and Mustangs to coupes such as Nissan Skylines, Mercedes wagons, and even Saturns.
