Summer is a busy time here at the IMRRC, with larger groups as well as families and individuals discovering our archive as a destination.
Tim Suddard, President of Grassroots Motorsports/Classic Motorsports magazines, led a group of 33 cars on a Finger Lakes-themed rally and thoughtfully included the IMMRC on his itinerary. Most of the visitors were new to the area and the IMRRC, and were eager to learn more about the 75 years of racing history at Watkins Glen, as well as our own history as a leading motorsport archive.
In late June, the Center hosted a group of Rolls-Royce Silver Ghost owners, led by long-time friend and supporter Tom Colbert. Astonishingly, these cars were driven exclusively – not trailered – with at least one example exhibiting the patina of decades of enjoyment on the open road.
