Is this an annual event or is there a schedule somewhere?

 

So here are a few more pics I tweeted yesterday from my iPhone. I have over 900 photos and video to sort through from this past weekend. There were plenty of prominent people at the races yesterday including Chef Gordon Ramsey as the Grand Marshall. Hopefully I get the pics up soon before NY Auto Show in a few days.

 

The Izod/Indycar runs are sanctioned by Honda so they ran that Accord coupe pace car for their runs. All the other races including the LFA hot lap sessions were not televised throughout the whole weekend.

 

The Toyota Long Beach Grand Prix is in its 37th year of racing.

Sorry let me rephrase that. Is this event only once a year or what's their schedule like for the year?

 

37th "annual" Toyota Grand Prix of Long Beach. What more is there to explain? lol

 

Damn it red x's....here is the tweet timeline from yesterday:

while the indy car event was shown live espn also showed ALMS at the same track, Lexus wasn't the pace car there either. I know there were other races though, so hoping we get more videos of the LFA or some hot laps.

 

LFA inspired the life of speed.

 

Yummy!
