About Transilvania Motor Ring
Overview
Transilvania Motor Ring is a permanent racing circuit near the village of Cerghid in Mureș County, about 20 km south-west of Târgu Mureș in central Romania. The complex is public property of Mureș County and is run by the County Council. It is described as the largest racing venue in Romania. It hosts national car and motorcycle championships, drifting, track days and test sessions, and it can also be hired for running and cycling events, corporate events and photo shoots.
Technical Specifications and Track Features
The speed circuit is 3,708 m long and between 11 and 14 m wide, with a main straight of about 700 m. The complex covers about 35 hectares, and an internal road crosses the track on a concrete bridge with a span of 32 m. Deformable steel safety barriers line the circuit. A timing system with 96 transponders serves races and track days, and results can be shown online or on local television. The circuit runs its own car and motorcycle track days, where one entry buys five 20-minute sessions, and it offers hourly test-drive slots with at most six vehicles on track at once. A separate supermoto course of 1,620 m combines 1,245 m of asphalt with 375 m of off-road sections.
Facilities and Specialized Areas
The three-storey central building houses race control, the timing post, the race director's office, television and radio studios, a podium platform and a conference room. Next to it, the boxes building contains eleven double garages for competitors and three single technical boxes, with team offices and a restaurant on the upper floor. The paddock platform is 478 m long and up to 52 m wide, with electrical hook-ups along its length. The grandstand on the main straight seats 1,428 spectators. A medical centre includes a defibrillation room and an anti-doping laboratory, and the site has a heliport with two landing pads.
History
Mureș County Council first announced plans for a motorsport park in 2006. The project, called "Parc auto pentru sporturi cu motor", was funded through the European Union's Regional Operational Programme 2007-2013 to develop motorsport tourism in the county. Built for more than 58 million lei of European and public money, the circuit was inaugurated in November 2018 in front of about 11,000 spectators. It was approved for car racing in 2019, when it held nearly 40 events, including nine rounds of national championships run by the Romanian Automobile Sport Federation. Approval for motorcycle competitions followed in April 2020. In 2021 the operators said the safety barriers had to be upgraded before the circuit could host international events. In July 2026 the venue hosted a round of the Romanian National Drift Championship run entirely at night under floodlights, with about 80 drivers from six countries.
