Featuring a drool-worthy collection of supercars, the third annual Heritage Invitational is set to take place at the newly opened Ten Tenths Motor Club at Charlotte Motor Speedway on April 5th. This event will showcase rare supercars and historic race cars, marking the official opening of the 100-acre facility, which features a multi-circuit road course and a 20,000-square-foot clubhouse.
Businessman and NASCAR team owner Rick Hendrick’s collection will headline the show, with cars like the Mercedes-AMG ONE, Ferrari Daytona SP3, and Hennessey Venom F5 Revolution. Mr. Hendrick is also the co-founder of the Ten Tenths Motor Club.
The Mercedes-AMG ONE, with its hybrid powertrain, brings Formula 1-inspired performance to the streets. It’s powered by a 1.6-liter V6 engine paired with four electric motors, delivering a combined 1,063 horsepower and a top speed of 219 mph. Only three units are available in the U.S.
The Ferrari Daytona SP3 features a naturally aspirated 6.5-liter V12 engine that produces 840 horsepower, reaching 60 mph in just 2.8 seconds. With a top speed of 211 mph, it’s a limited-edition tribute to Ferrari’s racing heritage. The Hennessey Venom F5 Revolution, built for speed and lightweight performance, produces an astonishing 1,817 horsepower. With its carbon fiber body and a 0-60 mph time of under 2.5 seconds, it has been engineered to reach top speeds well beyond 250 mph, making it one of the fastest production cars in the world.
The event will also highlight a Porsche collection curated by Rory Ingram – the well-known Porsche collector – covering eight decades of racing history. It includes the 1955 Porsche 550 Spyder, the 1959 718 RSK, the 1960 Abarth Carrera GTL, and the 1964 904 Carrera GTS. The lineup also features the Porsche 917, which won the 24 Hours of Le Mans in 1970, and the 1979 Kremer 935 K3, known for its victory at Le Mans. Other significant models include the Porsche Holbert Löwenbräu 962 and the modern Penske Porsche Motorsport 963.
Several prominent figures in Porsche’s racing history will be present, including Alwin Springer, Bruce Meyer, and Bill Warner. Mr. Springer, a major influence in Porsche motorsports, will be honored at a special gala.
On April 4, the event will host the first-ever Celebrity Pro-Am Race, where amateur drivers will team up with professional racers such as Jeff Gordon, Tommy Kendall, Katherine Legge, Patrick Long, Max Papis, Kyle Petty, Scott Pruett, and Boris Said. Ten amateurs will bid for a chance to race with these professionals, with proceeds going to Speedway Children’s Charities.
The weekend will also feature the Historic Trans-Am Series season opener, bringing back classic muscle cars from the late 1960s and early 1970s.
The Heritage Invitational is not just a showcase—it’s an opportunity to see high-performance vehicles in action and connect with racing history. For car enthusiasts, it’s a rare chance to experience both the latest technology and the machines that shaped motorsports.
