Vintage Motorsport magazine sponsored five major trophies for participants of the SVRA U.S. Vintage Racing National Championships last weekend at Circuit of the Americas in Austin, TX. A secret panel of motorsport historians and tech inspectors selected no-stories cars with provenance in three categories – Best Pre-War, Best Production Race Car, and Best Open-Wheeler, while fan ballots selected the Fan Favorite and participating drivers voted for Best in Show. The winners are:
Best in Show – 1963 Lotus 27, Nick Grewal, Gilford, NH
Best Pre-War – 1948 Talbot-Lago T26C, Denis Bigioni, Pickering, ONT
Best Production Race Car – 1963 Elva Courier Mk III, Andrew “Bud” Byrnes, Sherman Oaks, CA
Best Open-Wheel Race Car – 1957 Cooper T43, Luca Maciucescu, Santa Fe, NM
Fan Favorite – 1969 Chevron B16, Gray Gregory, Houston, TX
