NRING (Nizhny Novgorod Circuit), located 16 kilometers from Nizhny Novgorod, belongs to Russia's new crop of international standard circuits.
The track has been designed to meet the International Automobile Federation (FIA) Grade 2 standards, which allows it to cater for all types of racing competitions, both domestic and international. The main circuit was completed by 2010, ready for its first race in June.
The track is 3,222 meters long, with 9.6 m elevation. It has seven different configurations, including a drag racing lane, an oval course, a motorcycle configuration, and can also be divided into a training zone and a go-kart zone of 1,379 meters. In 2014, the rest of the facilities were added up, with 24 pit boxes, control tower, media center, and grandstand seating for 8,000 spectators.
NRING hosts a karting school for children and teenagers – SMP Racing Academy. It provides an excellent training base – the operating Nizhny Novgorod Ring race track and professional sports karts are available at all times. Championships and cups of various levels are regularly held on the karting track.
The virtual version of the track features ring configurations A, B, C, moto, drift and karting set ups. Development began in the summer of 2022, and was timed for the offline RSKG stage on July 30, with an early version of the circuit for spectator races on SMP Racing simulators presented there.
