Posted by Steve White on Mar 15, 2010

The Legends of Riverside is an annual event that features the gathering of famous drivers and cars that participated in competitions held at the legendary 3-mile Riverside road racing track. This much-awaited festival will take place at the Riverside International Automotive Museum in Riverside, California from the 26th to the 28th of March, 2010.

More than 40 famous racing legends will be present at the event, and they include Carroll Shelby, Bruce, Kessler, Howden Ganley, George Follmer, Dan Gurney, Denise McCluggage, Scooter Patrick, John Morton, Jerry Grant, Davey Jordan, and many others. The guest of honor for this year’s event is Carroll Shelby, who is known for his wild and fearless racing style as well as victories in the 24 Hours of Le Mans. Only 150 paying guests will be attending the festival, and this makes it possible for them to get up close and personal with the racing stars. Vehicles that will be on display during the event include classic cars that competed in major racing events such the Indy, Can Am, F5000, and USRRC, as well as a number of significant Shelby cars.

The Legends of Riverside will also be presenting a great lineup of racing films, which include the Can Am Thunder, Le Mans, Winning, Once Upon a Wheel, The Sound of Speed, The Cannonball Rally, and others. Other than the legends gala and film festival, there will also be award presentations, an art and photograph exhibition, and a silent auction.
