Monterey Motorsports Reunion 2013 at Laguna Seca

The air is full of dust and hydrocarbons, the noise is ear-splitting and there are more V8s on the grid than you can shake a con-rod at. It must be the Monterey Motorsports Reunion at Laguna Seca, the most action-packed portion of Pebble Beach and Monterey car week.

For three days every August some of the most historic racing cars gather to take to one of the world’s most challenging racing circuits, in the hills above Monterey. The 2.238-mile circuit is one of the most undulating anywhere – and it makes for some seriously exciting racing.
