Rolex Monterey Motorsports Reunion

My Life at Speed

Another incredible year in Monterey. You may never see so many beautiful and historically significant race vehicles in one place anywhere else in the world. Pair that with one of the most iconic racing venues on the planet and what you end up with is an unforgettable experience that every serious, or even mildly enthusiastic, race fan should experience at least once in their life.

Here are some of my favorite photos from the 2014 version of the Rolex Monterey Motorsports Reunion:

Many, many icons in this photo.

In the beginning, all race cars were open wheel.

Classic creamsicle.

Even if the banner didn’t say it, you’d still know…

The oldest school red badge.

Just a little hot in turn 10

Peter Gregg edges out his teammate through turn 9

An electrical gremlin kept the emissions colorful on this Nissan

Another look at the Nissan’s fiery discharge.

10,000 horsepower coming right at you

Spying Mr. Stockwell through the trees

Italian muscle over the crest at 7

Through the famous corkscrew

Just before the plunge

Ma Uno.

Fender Ports. Real fender ports.

Bugatti

Whizzer motorcycle. First one I have ever seen.

If they give you an extra two feet of track to go faster, then you use an extra two feet of track to go faster.

Wannabe drifter…

Dropping in and down

The steepest part is drivers’ right…

I've been around some form of racing since I was a kid. First hanging around Ascot in Southern California. Then, after moving to Texas as a teen, I got hooked on drag racing and did that for almost fifteen years. In between I have raced Dirt bikes and Quads. 2011 Marked my 8th and final year racing up Pikes Peak: Five in the Pro Quad division and three in Time Attack. Future racing plans are in the works, but until then I'm at the track shooting for My Life at Speed as much as I possibly can.
