Yet another event that I go to every year. Great places to check out cars and see some great races. Just remember to bring your ear plugs... it does get pretty loud. If anyone is interested, we can do a caravan down there. I heard from somewhere that Nissan might start to race this one one of these days. This is probably as close to the JGTC as you can get in the US....

SPORTS cars have played an important roll in Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca's history, and will continue to do so during the Monterey Sports Car Championships, September 5-7. For 46 years, the Monterey Peninsula and Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca have hosted the greatest names in sports car racing, and this fall is no exception.
The Championships feature the top sports car series in the world, the American Le Mans Series (ALMS), and some of the most incredible racing of the season. Le Mans Prototype machines mix it up with other GT groups to create some of the most exciting racing at the fabled 11-turn Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca circuit. BMWs, Audis, Porsches, Vipers and Corvettes stun the senses with sound and speed, while some of the world's most colorful drivers will dazzle you with their phenomenal driving skills.

 

We both know what happened last year.

Anyways, it is an exciting race to see. Hearing them Ferraris bust your ears open and all!!
