Run Groups for the 2019 Rolex Monterey Motorsports Reunion have been announced. An anticipated 1,000 entry requests are expected to be received for the limited 550 grid positions that race August 15-18, 2019 at Monterey County’s legendary WeatherTech Raceway Laguna Seca.
The run groups evolved slightly for 2019 to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the International Motor Sports Association (IMSA), which is the year’s featured marque. It is the first time a racing series has been so honored and will provide a dynamic atmosphere in the paddock with an unprecedented variety of cars with past and present racing personalities from throughout IMSA’s rich history. In addition, to IMSA-related run groups, this coming year’s event will also feature historic Formula One cars, as well as Formula Ford.
