Description	: La Guacima is the first, and currently, the only one permanent motor racing circuit in Costa Rica, a pacific nation in Central America. Located near Alajuela, in greater San Jose area, La Guacima was built in 1974 as a 2 kms track, it was expanded to 3 kms in 1987, when the country had been included in 1988 World Sport-Prototype Championship calendar as season finale, since La Guacima then became a modern circuit with FIA standards for the late 80s. The race would be the "President Oscar Arias Grand Prix", after the 1987 Nobel Prize winner. However, financial issues led the race being dropped from the 1988 WSP schedule, and never again had a real chance to held a international race. The 3 kms circuit held several Central American races, and some Mexican series eventually visited the circuit in the 90s and 2000s. In 2014 the 3 kms circuit was shortened to less than 2 kms, and a large part of the former circuit became the "Parque Viva" (Long Life Park), with multi-event facilities.
