A Celebration of Japanese Motorsports & Landmark Anniversaries

This year’s celebration honors the legacy of Japanese motorsports with the featured theme, “Salute to Japanese Motorsports: A Tradition of Precision & Heritage,” highlighting the innovation, craftsmanship and racing spirit that Japanese automakers and motorsport icons have brought to the world stage, while also honoring broader motorsport heritage and legendary race cars and motorcycles from around the globe, noted the release.

The Rolex Monterey Motorsports Reunion will also spotlight several landmark anniversaries and legendary racing categories. Leading the way is the 60th anniversary of Can-Am, celebrated through the Bruce McLaren Trophy, which brings together the iconic 1963-74 Can-Am and USRRC V8 machines. For 2026, there will be a dedicated run group exclusively showcasing these high-performance legends, honoring one of the most influential eras in North American motorsport.

The 2026 Reunion will also commemorate the 45th anniversary of the iconic IMSA Grand Touring Prototype (GTP) class with a special run group: The Hurley Haywood GTP/Group C. This group will highlight the groundbreaking prototypes that defined endurance racing for more than a decade, officials said.

The Historic Trans Am category will also once again take its place among the weekend’s marquee attractions. Celebrating its own 60th anniversary in 2026, Trans Am brings its unmistakable sound, fierce racing and timeless American spirit to the celebration.

“The 2026 Rolex Monterey Motorsports Reunion is shaping up to be one of our most historic celebrations yet,” said April Henderson, director of the Rolex Monterey Motorsports Reunion. “From honoring Japanese motorsports to celebrating milestone anniversaries like Can-Am’s 60th and GTP’s 45th, we’re bringing together the cars, the stories and the people who shaped racing history. It’s a tribute to global motorsport heritage, and we can’t wait to share it with fans and participants alike.”
