Porsches at Old Riverside

Fellow Pelicans,

Do any of you have old photos of Porsches running on the old Riverside Raceway Course in California. I was cleaning out my desk this weekend and came across an old IMSA Program for the last race that was run there and I'd like to see some more photos. I went to school out at UCR and alway ditched to go over to RIR whenever I could. Please post anything you might have if you can.

Yeah...that racetrack is still missed. If it makes you feel any better, the mall they built there now has a high vacancy rate and is losing money for the investors.

someone should buy the mall and put a racetrack there.

I think I'm getting depressed, I remember being at Riverside and seeing all, I mean ALL, these cars.............where has the time gone.


As far as tearing down the mall to build a race track, let's start...........California has enough malls and wouldn't miss one.

I was at that mall late one night and pulled into the lot around 3 A.M. I swear I could here Donahue's 917 wiping through what were the Ss..........

I still have my Riverside gearing charts and more.
”Riverside Int'l. Raceway 1987/ old pelicans ?“ as above on p. 2.

They may make more money turning the mall back into a racetrack.

I’m ready.

Best,
Grady

I have a number of photos from the 1986 LA Times Grand Prix. Anything in particular you are looking for? A few samples Here
