TTA – Racing Elite League is going to race at an all-new racing arena on the 15th of September 2012 in the form of Tierp Stockholm Arena.
“We are incredibly proud and happy to introduce racing at Tierp Stockholm Arena along with TTA. We can at last through the cooperation with TTA reach a wider target group within the motorsport,” said Lars Erik Lindberg, Tierp Stockholm Arena.

Tierp Stockholm Arena has previously only hosted drag racing and has for this season along with the TTA created an all-new racing circuit at about two kilometers in length.
“I was stunned when I visited the arena for the first time. We have created a circuit of absolute top class with Tierp, I can hardly wait for the first race here,” said Jan “Flash” Nilsson, TTA representative.
The two kilometer circuit is being constructed in cooperation with the Swedish Automobile Sports Federation and the track is partly going to use the existing drag racing straight. The cars are going to turn around right ahead of the main stands with a capacity of over 20 000 spectators.
“The track layout uses the potential of the arena to the max. We will get a long and fast straight combined with challenging corners, all within the viewing area of the spectators. We welcome all racing fans to an extremely exciting racing season,” said Lindberg.

Tierp Stockholm Arena re-wrote the European drag racing map as it was launched in May 2011 and has been valued to close to a quarter of a billion Swedish kronor.
“The arena is more or less complete with a gigantic exhibition area, an exciting track and it is located in in one of Sweden’s most populated areas. The TTA does what the ice hockey has done for a couple of years, we are investing in our arenas,” said Jan “Flash” Nilsson, TTA representative.

The circuit is currently being constructed and the final layout is going to be revealed during a press conference at Tierp Stockholm Arena in April. The TTA race at Tierp Stockholm Arena replaces the Mantorp Park race on the 15th of September. Negotiations are ongoing with Mantorp Park for a new date and race number nine of TTA 2012.
