CORONADO SPEED FESTIVAL
Are
you ready for an experience you won’t forget? The Coronado
Speed Festival presented by North Island Credit Union is a
weekend that you will always remember; as a sister event of
the world famous Monterey Historic Automobile Races at Laguna Seca, the
Coronado Speed Festival gathers together racing history's
most unique and pedigreed machines at one of the most
distinctive stages, Naval Base Coronado, the birthplace of
Naval Aviation, on September 27-28, 2008.
The
2008 Coronado Speed Festival is hosted by the Navy Region
Southwest, Morale Welfare and Recreation (MWR) Program. MWR
retains all revenue generated by tickets sold to the
Military and a percentage of the overall revenue generated
by the event. They in turn provide positive support for the
active duty military community and their families through
Quality of Life Programs including, Single Sailor Recreation
Centers, Fitness and Aquatic Facilities and the Base Theatre
Free Movies. The Southern California community is given
this unbelievable opportunity to thank the men and women
defending our freedom in person.
A spectator-friendly
1.7-mile course is constructed in a matter of days on the
runways and taxiway of Naval Base Coronado. The 2008
Coronado Speed Festival features over 225 of the world's top
racing machines from years gone by competing in eight
classes. These vintage racecars are chosen to compete on
the basis of their historical significance and certified
authenticity.
