It's a return to Watkins Glen International this weekend after an eight year absence.

The Perelli World Challenge is back at WGI this year and it's the season finale for the Challenge. It comes weeks after the track was forced to cancel the Phish Concert as a result of heavy rain.

Public Relations Director Chris Banker says it was unfortunate but, they've moved past it.

“For us, we’ve moved on,” said Banker. “You know it’s about putting on a great event for our fans this weekend. It certainly unfortunate, what happen with that but for us all we can do is look forward to the Perelli world challenge Grand Prix this weekend and the Hilliard US vintage Grand Prix next weekend.”

Festivities run Friday through Sunday with the big race on Sunday.
