Monterey, CA — Cris Vandagriff on Monday was named Technical Advisor to WeatherTech Raceway Laguna Seca management for the Aug. 12-15 Rolex Monterey Motorsports Reunion.
A regular fixture at the event for many years, Vandagriff — president of the Historic Motor Sport Association — will provide insight into car authenticity and history during the selection process that’s currently underway.
“This new role allows me to continue to ensure the event maintains its prestige and adherence to the founding principles of authenticity and driving standards,” Vandagriff said.
He’ll work closely with raceway management and Historic Sportscar Racing, the sanctioning body for the reunion event, continuing an ongoing HMSA-HSR working relationship.
“Cris’ deep knowledge base strengthens the selection process to ensure the cars people will enjoy at the Rolex Motorsports Reunion are the real deal,” said John Narigi, the raceway’s president and general manager.
