This year’s Monterey Motorsports Reunion is bringing together an entire race dedicated to the Shelby GT350. The over 2.5-litre class is already typically filled with Mustangs, but this special feature will bring out 39 GT350s.
With today’s pre-reunion event now over, we have prepared a preview gallery with some of the new cars present at Laguna. We found a newly restored Porsche 908, Nissan 280ZX and an incredible set of post-war Alfas.
Among the many manufacturer displays, BMW will bring the 2002 BMW M3 GTR Stra?enversion from the factory collection in Germany. This will be the second time this model has been seen in North America.
Right now Mazda Laguna Seca Raceway might be at a crossroads as the local, long-term sanctioning body SCRAMP is being pressured-out in favor of the ISC which is known for its NASCAR events. As Laguna Seca is built on a County Park, this could jeopardize the agreement with the Monterey County Parks Department.
