The Sports Cars under 2 Liter provided great variety an d great entertainment at the 2018 Laguna Seca Spring Classic.   Lovely cars from the fifties and early sixties.  The battle for the lead was definitely Maserati versus Porsche but behind were also great battles featuring British, German and US cars.  The photos below are from the two Saturday races.
