2016 Rolex Monterey Motorsports Reunion<\/h1>\n

The Rolex Monterey Motorsports Reunion was<\/strong> held August 18 to 21, 2016, at Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca. The event gathered\u00a0approximately 550 legendary pre and postwar race and sports cars that represent the pinnacle of their class. This year, 100 years of BMW was\u00a0the\u00a0featured marque.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

We’ve said before that our\u00a0favorite event at Monterey Car Week<\/a>\u00a0is the\u00a0Rolex Monterey Motorsports Reunion<\/a>. In 2016\u00a0BMW was on center stage,\u00a0celebrating\u00a0its distinguished racing history and centennial.\u00a0In addition to numerous BMW race cars, BMW owners got to run parade laps around the track.<\/p>\n

This\u00a0vintage car racing is a tremendous spectacle even if you’re not into racing. Essentially, these cars get taken out of their museums and\u00a0do battle against one another like they did in the\u00a0old days.\u00a0This is real racing, real mechanics and real expensive historic cars. You can smell the excitement (and the gasoline).<\/p>\n

You name it, it was there. Every\u00a0Porsche you can imagine. Plenty of BMW M1s. Formula One cars everywhere. I lost count of the Mustang GT350s and all the\u00a0race-prepped Bentleys. Stuff even the most hardcore enthusiast has never heard of.<\/p>\n

SEE ALSO: Our\u00a0list of the best BMW race cars ever<\/a>\u00a0and our BMW homepage<\/a>\u00a0for our favorites.\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

The cars were grouped into 16 categories, with race cars ranging from the 1920s to the ’80s. There\u00a0was something for every type of race fan.\u00a0BMW USA Classic will run seven historic race cars at the 2016 Rolex Monterey Motorsports Reunion on August 18-21 at Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca in Monterey. BMW is the featured marque at the Rolex<\/p>\n

BMW was\u00a0represented by 64 vintage BMW race cars ranging from a strong group of 1930\u2019s 328s to the all concurring BMW V12 LMR<\/a> of 1999. The Rolex Reunion was also the\u00a0largest gathering of BMW M1 ProCars<\/a> ever assembled in the USA. All five factory IMSA specification 3.0 CSLs were also in attendance,\u00a0the first time since they raced in 1975 and 1976.<\/p>\n

Rather than a static heritage display that is typical for the featured marque\u00a0at the Rolex Reunion, BMW of North America developed the \u2018BMW Living Legends Garage\u2019 to house a selection of BMWs that chronicle the history of the company\u2019s racing heritage.<\/p>\n

Definitely check out the Monterey Car Week coverage, lots of cool stuff to see.<\/p>\n
