Auto Club Speedway was home to the 2017 Sportscar Vintage Racing Association (SVRA) Historic Sports Car Festival this past weekend. Sadly turnout was low at the event and the Santa Ana winds were in full force. Even so, those who did who up were able to see some amazing cars tackle the road course at Auto Club Speedway. Check out my vLog below as well as more photos from the paddock.
