Starting with the Winter Marathon Rally in January and ending with the Sebring Historic Races in December, Sports Car Digest covered a diverse range of 90 historic car races and rallies in 2014. Our award-winning team of photographers took tens of thousands of pictures, spending hours post-event analyzing and choosing the best ones in an effort to wow our readers. To celebrate the effect that these photographs have on us as well as the dozens of talented photographers who capture them, we have once again narrowed it down to the 50 best pictures of the year.

Narrowing it down to 50 certainly wasn’t easy, as the shots worthy of high praise number not in the dozens but in the many hundreds. The list is done, however, and similar to our Best of 2009, Best of 2010, Best of 2011, Best of 2012 and Best of 2013 contests, we are asking for your help picking the best vintage car racing photo from 2014.

Simply vote by leaving a comment below indicating which photo is your favorite image. If you feel that we’ve overlooked a particular picture, please nominate a candidate by linking to the picture in your comment. We will announce the winner in the January 22nd edition of our newsletter and in the comment section.
