Here are some photos I took at Porsche Rennsport Reunion V at the historic Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca last summer.
Heres some info from their website regarding the event:
Rennsport Reunion V represented the unparalleled passion of Porsche enthusiasts. It drew nearly 60,000 people from across the globe to a single destination, all to celebrate one of the most accomplished, most magnetic, and most visceral sports car brands on earth – Porsche.
The unparalleled weekend was headlined by the sights and sounds on, and off the track. Roughly 320 Porsche racecars, in seven racing classes, took to the famed Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca circuit at racing speed. An additional 75 Porsche racecars, all with significant 24 Hours of Le Mans history wowed the spectators, while over 1,400 streetcars overflowed the available corral spaces.

What: Described as a museum springing to life, the Rolex Monterey Motorsports Reunion is the largest event held during the famed Monterey Classic Car Week, and is the only event where cars are doing what they were originally intended to do…race. Approximately 550 race cars are invited to compete in the world’s premier motoring event, and are accepted based on the car’s authenticity, race provenance and period correctness.
The event relives motorsport history at the iconic circuit, which has been the scene of America’s golden years of sports car racing since its inception in 1957. In addition to the entertaining on-track action, there are always engaging autograph opportunities with legendary drivers, Q&A sessions, and fine wine and cheese tastings among the myriad activities.
