The 2013 running of the Rolex Monterey Motorsports Reunion was held August 15-18 at Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca in Salinas, California. A solid entry list of 550 historic automobiles competed in 16 racing groups over the 11-turn, 2.238 mile road course. This year’s Reunion represented the 40th consecutive year of vintage car racing on the Monterey Peninsula in August. While many still (and always will) call the races the Monterey Historics, the race weekend at Laguna Seca remains the finest historic automobile racing event in North America, regardless of the name.
