Vintage racing in So Cal with VARA is still very popular with the car owners/drivers.
We were at Big Willow last November and had 44 cars in our race.
I prefer the low key events where you run 3 times a day.
Warm up, qualifier followed by a race.
For me that level of vintage fun satisfies my racing needs.

Monterey Reunion will be full of cars that have been thoroughly scrutinized for period correctness and real history.
Our IMSA Camaro will be there but it's a different kind of event.
Cars on track at all times, but its more social over 5 days with longer wait times between our scheduled races.
It is worth the wait when you get on track with 30 cars with history that actually competed together decades ago.
If you want to go to a Historic race car event on par with Goodwood the Monterey Reunion is a must see.
Notice there is Vintage racing where owners build race cars from older cars and then there is Historic racing where Historic race cars are restored to a point in time to compete as they did originally.
Both are fun but at Vintage races you don't see the historic cars you will find at an event like Reunion.
