Rolex Motorsport Reunion, Laguna Seca. August 2023
This year has been a bit of a struggle for me for differing reasons so it was a pleasant surprise when I was asked to join up with a team that had prepared a Trojan built, Team VDS, twin-turbocharged McLaren M8FP/6-72. It was a mighty machine when I stood beside the same car in 1973 and it still is today, looking as good as new and well driven by it's new owner Chris Springer.
I headed north to Laguna Seca with my friend Bill to the Pre Reunion meet one week before the main event this weekend.
It is less crowded, cheaper and everyone is so friendly. We took some photos to share.
