This year, SCRAMP\u2019s Rolex Monterey Motorsports Reunion eschewed a featured marque and instead celebrated the 60<sup>th<\/sup> anniversary of the Laguna Seca racing circuit. More than 500 vintage racecars competed and the paddock display was capped by the \u201cRacing Through the Decades\u201d exhibit that featured 12 significant racecars and bikes with ties to the historic road course, including the Ferrari 500 Testa Rossa that Pete Lovely drove to victory in the inaugural race there in 1957.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTo have 28 international FIA representatives vote and recognize SCRAMP for such an honor is testament to the passion and professionalism of SCRAMP staff, volunteers, sponsors and the County of Monterey,\u201d remarked Campbell. \u201cIt is through the dedication and enthusiasm from each participant who shares his or her cars on the track and in the paddock that makes the Rolex Monterey Motorsports Reunion so special internationally.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The 2018 Rolex Monterey Motorsports will be held August 23-26 at Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca.
