Darn! I was down there this past weekend and would have loved to stay another week and attend but had to get back home. We were down there moving our daughter back to UCSD. Looks like a lot of fun with many great cars. We were there last year when they had the Red Bull air races as well.

Yep. Usually go every year. I believe it's the same people/cars as the Monterey Historic Races. While there's only one Laguna Seca, San Diego Bay/Coromado is a pretty cool place to watch vintage Ferraris/etc race.

That looks like a blast. I love historic races and it looks like there are cars and a bunch more there! Wish I could go. I will put this on my calendar for next year!

The best part is that you can follow the cars into the pits, and talk to the driver/owner/wrenches/team/etc.

Hey Mex5 was that your red M5 at the show?
If it was, it's certainly a very nice ride!
