\u201cFrom Formula One to public roads, the Lotus name has earned a deserved legacy of style and success,\u201d stated Bobby Rahal, partner, Historic Motorsports Productions (HMP), which owns and promotes the Legends of Motorsports series. \u201cThe evolution of this unique brand will be on full display throughout the Barber Motorsports Park event. Guests will have great opportunities to see up close many Lotus models grouped in a special reserved display area. In addition, the unique Barber Vintage Motorsports Museum houses one of the largest and most pristine Lotus collections anywhere.\u201d<\/p>\n

Along with the trackside Lotus display, event attendees will see a host of Lotus cars in competition during a special Lotus-exclusive race<\/a>.<\/p>\n

A full roster of Legends of Motorsports classes will be in place at Barber Motorsports Park including:<\/p>\n

** Historic Grand Prix

\n** Trans-Am
\n** Thunder & Lightening Production Cars
\n** Classic Monoposto
\n** Formula Libre
\n** IMSA GT
\n** Can-Am\/USRRC
\n** Lotus<\/p>\n

Peter Stoneberg, partner and CEO of HMP stated, \u201cThe inclusion of a feature automotive marque will be integral to all 2010 Legends of Motorsports events. Enthusiasts visiting our historic racing and automotive lifestyle weekends will have the chance to immerse themselves in the cars, people and culture associated with these remarkable brands.\u201d<\/p>\n

In addition to the Barber Motorsports Park event, Legends of Motorsports will hold 2010 feature events at New York\u2019s Watkins Glen International<\/a>, June 10-13, and Canada\u2019s Circuit Mont Tremblant<\/a> on July 8-11.<\/p>\n
