Two Ways to Experience the Pacific Northwest Historics
This year the Society of Vintage Racing Enthusiasts (SOVREN) will be running the Pacific Northwest Historics on July 4th through 6th at Pacific Raceways in Kent, WA. This is the 37th running of the Historics, and we are expecting up to 200 Vintage and Historic race cars from marques including Porsche, Jaguar, MG, Austin Healey, Cooper, Elva, Lola, Lotus, Chevrolet, Alfa Romeo, Triumph, BMW, Ford, and more.
Running around the 2.25 mile long, 10-turn raceway at speeds reaching 150 mph, these cars will be competing on the challenging course which features a ¾ mile long front straight and 300 feet of elevation change. Featured this year are Small Block Chevy race cars such as the Cheetah, TransAm/IROC Camaro/Firebirds, Corvettes, F5000, American Indy Car Series and McLaren CanAm cars.
