Desert Classic Celebrates Indianapolis 500 Centenary

February 16, 2011 By Lynch

Not all race cars at the Desert Classic will be Indy cars. This is Bill Pope’s Maserati 8CM that won a 2nd place ribbon at Pebble Beach last summer.

The fourth edition of the Palm Springs Desert Classic Concours d’Elegance will be held over the weekend of February 26-27 at the famed La Quinta Resort and Club in the desert spa area of Southern California.

A modern concours is more than just a car show, and the weekend of February 19-20 will see the inaugural Desert Classic Vintage Race, sanctioned by the Vintage Auto Racing Association, at the new 16-turn Chuckwalla Valley Raceway just down the road from La Quinta. This will kick off a Desert Classic Speedweek celebration.
