This was another powerful year for Sports Car Digest. There was rarely a dull moment in 2014 as we covered hundreds of historic rallies, vintage races, classic car auctions and events around the world. And we offer sincere thanks to our audience of historic car enthusiasts for actually reading them!
Leading the way in popularity for 2014 was the Pebble Beach Concours d’Elegance, followed by the photo galleries from the Amelia Island Concours d’Elegance and the unbelievable story of Bruce Meyer’s encounter with DEA agents at Laguna Seca. Similar to 2009, 2010, 2011, 2012 and 2013, nearly all of the top stories included extensive photo galleries that accounted for a majority of the page views.
