The Pittsburgh Vintage Grand Prix returns to Schenley Park for a summer weekend that feels like Pittsburgh at its best. With the full street circuit back in action, drivers will zoom across the Panther Hollow Bridge and wind through the park, racing within 50 feet of the crowd. It’s close, a little loud, and unlike anything else!
