Colorado Trans-Am
06/01/2007 - 06/03/2007
You are cordially invited to attend this year's Trans-Am Racing in central Colorado. Rocky Mountain Vintage Racing will again be commemorating the glory days of the Trans-Am Series on June 1-3, 2007 at Pueblo Motorsports Park, south of the former Continental Divide Raceways.The event will feature the mix of cars that was the Trans-Am series including Datsun 510s, Camaros, Cudas, Alfas, and Mustangs. Race Group 3 will include early sedans and Trans-Am cars through 1972. This year's event opens the field to the championship winning Porsche 911 that raced hammer-and- tong with the Alfa GTAs. The two liter (U2) cars will be racing side by side with the five-liter (O2) cars.
The event will also feature a special Group 1 B-Production race between the Corvettes and GT350s. These cars competed for the BP national championship in the 1960s and this special race will recreate the excitement of this great racing. Numerous GT350s and Corvette Stingrays are coming to compete. Group 1 will also feature the fastest of the fast production cars including the AP big block Corvettes and Exhibition late model Trans-Am cars and vintage Can-Am race cars. Guests from local and regional car clubs are invited to join in this special group of racing cars. The group will consist of some of the most skilled drivers in the area in a gentleman's (and ladies') shoot-out. Vintage rules and mindset apply. This exciting class of cars will be similar to a Car and Driver comparison of old versus new, American V8s versus exotic sports cars and should be really fun to watch.
Several Trans-Am guests will be speaking at a track-side dinner Saturday evening June 2, 2007 including race team members and officials who participated in the Trans-Am series. This year's event will feature the Shelby team cars that took the championship in 1967. Spectators are invited to join this special banquet dinner and participate in the story telling and reliving of the special times involving these special cars.
