History

The circuit was built in 2014 for the Turismo Carretera and TC Pista competitions, with its additional objectives being bringing regional motorsport competitions together, as well as enticing larger motorsport competitions to host a round in the province. A round has been hosted at the circuit every year since and as of 2019, a round of the Argentinian Rallycross Championship (Campeonato Argentino de Rallycross) has been hosted on a new mixed-surface layout of the circuit.
