Graham Smith Named General Manager of Ten Tenths Motor Club

CONCORD, N.C., June 24, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Speedway Motorsports has appointed Graham Smith general manager of the new Ten Tenths Motor Club, an exclusive destination for luxury automotive enthusiasts and the East Coast's newest corporate event and hospitality venue. Smith, formerly the vice president of OEM partnerships at Speedway Motorsports, will now oversee daily operations of the state-of-the-art 1.7-mile Ten Tenths Circuit, manage facility rentals at the 20,000-square-foot clubhouse and spearhead future expansion projects.

"Graham's extensive experience in operations, corporate sales and event management positions him uniquely to lead Ten Tenths Motor Club into its next chapter," said Speedway Motorsports President and COO Mike Burch. "His passion and energy will be crucial to the club's long-term success."

Smith's journey in motorsports began in 2012 with Charlotte Motor Speedway's Operations team. After roles in corporate sales and as managing director of U.S. Legend Cars International, he became vice president of OEM partnerships in 2023. In this capacity, Smith played a pivotal role in strengthening relationships with original equipment manufacturers and was instrumental in the opening of Ten Tenths Motor Club, a collaboration between Speedway Motorsports and NASCAR team owner Rick Hendrick.

"Witnessing Ten Tenths Motor Club evolve from a vision to one of the nation's premier luxury automotive destinations has been an incredible experience," Smith said. "I'm honored to lead the club as general manager and excited to showcase its potential as a venue for both the automotive community and a variety of special events."

Ten Tenths Motor Club, located adjacent to Charlotte Motor Speedway, offers a 1.7-mile, 19-turn road course designed by F1 veteran Alexander Wurz and a 20,000-square-foot clubhouse modeled after Turn 11 at Sonoma Raceway. Future expansion will include a members' garage with climate-controlled storage, a cigar lounge, bourbon bar and putting course. The club aims to provide unparalleled experiences for automotive enthusiasts, collectors and manufacturers.

The venue opened to rave reviews in April with the third annual Heritage Invitational, a celebration of the history, artistry and innovation of the automobile, featuring the Historic Trans Am Racing Series, a celebrity Pro-Am charity fundraiser and a world-class concours. A marquee event on the Ten Tenths schedule, the 2026 Heritage invitational is scheduled to return April 9-11.
