2008 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.

FLEET WEEK SAN DIEGO

The Coronado Speed Festival is proud to be a part of the largest military appreciation event in the nation, Fleet Week San Diego.

The 2008 celebration will include exciting events for families and military personnel including the Port of San Diego Sea & Air Parade, Saturday, May 3 and the famous MCAS Miramar Air Show October 3-5. For more information about Fleet Week San Diego events visit www.fleetweeksandiego.org.

GENERAL RACING LTD.

General Racing Ltd, will once again produce this exciting spectacle under the direction of Steven J. Earle, founder and producer of the Monterey Historic Automobile Races since 1974. The Laguna Seca event is widely acknowledged as the foremost historic car race in America.

VENDOR VILLAGE

Take a break from the high-speed action on the track and check out the latest innovative products, high-tech exhibits, racing paraphernalia, games and much much more.

GARAGE TOURS

Unlike most racing events, every fan is encouraged to walk through the garage area and watch as the racecars go through their final inspections before hitting the track.

You can tour the pits on your own or take a guided tour led by the drivers themselves. The owners and drivers encourage this rare opportunity for all interested from the casual fan to the gear head.

CAR SHOW

Support our troops and show your car! The Third Annual Car Show to benefit the Navy’s Morale Welfare Recreation - MWR will be held both days. Awards presented both days! An application to enter is available under the Car Show link.

MILITARY DISPLAYS

A multitude of current Navy jets and helicopters, special boats and hovercraft, as well as vintage aircraft, will be on display at the entrance of the event, with pilots eager to answer questions, show you, and allow access into the aircraft. This is a perfect opportunity to take pictures and to ask any questions you might have.
