Laguna Seca Historics


This weekend was light on professional sports car racing action. But what the weekend lacked in pro racing; it made up with historic racing. Laguna Seca again hosted the Rolex Monterey Motorsports Reunion, and I was there to see some of the best Porsche race cars from the 60s, 70s, 80s, 90s. The Motorsports Reunion is a great addition to Monterey car week and PCA always attends this annual August event in force with a giant tent at turn five. The tent is a great viewing location and has live streaming race coverage from around the track on a large TV. Lunch and beverages also allow Porsche racing enthusiasts to hang out there all day. My favorite part of this event is always walking the paddock and seeing all my favorite Porsche racers in their original liveries. Everything from the Rothmans 956, Coca-Cola 962, Interscope 935 K3, Gulf 917K, John Paul JLP-3, Targa Floria 908/3, Momo 935, and more. This event definitely gets me excited for Rennsport Reunion next September … which everyone was talking about on Saturday.
