Sights from Car Week on the Monterey Penninsula
Posted by in GeneralCar Week on the Monterey Pennisula has a little bit for everyone. It ran August 15-21st. There are the historics racing at Laguna Seca (Mazda Raceway now), there were car shows and auctions everywhere. If you like cars…chances are there was SOMETHING here for you. I decided to take in what I could for free one Saturday- just to see what I could see.

And the whole reason I wanted to go to car week? Was to see the DeLorean from the Back To The Future Franchise of course:
