Laguna-Seca Raceway is the place to be this August during Monterey Car Week. Japanese cars are the marque and Peter Brock the Grand Marshal! On display will be the largest number of original BRE race cars ever gathered together at one time.

Datsun/Nissan Car Corral and Parade Laps

We are working with the track on various activities and so far we have a Datsun/Nissan Car Corral setup.

The Datsun/Nissan Corral pass:

• Allows you to park your Datsun/Nissan in the Green/Lakebed area (this won't be far from our BRE Exhibit Booth).
• Is valid all 4 event days: Wed, Thurs, Fri and Sat.
• Includes an event souvenir
• Includes the opportunity to join the parade track lap. However, parade laps will be limited to 100 cars, first come first serve.
• 
  

The amount of space for cars in the Corral is limited so you want to get your pass asap.

To get tickets for the Datsun/Nissan Car Corral go to the track website here:

• Click on the Aug 12-15 Rolex Monterey Motorsports Reunion box
• Click on the Buy Tickets button
• Scroll down approx 2/3 of the way down the page to Car Corrals
• Select Buy Tix in the Datsun/Nissan Car Corral box

Don't wait... corral parking is limited. We've asked for 100 spots but if we fall short the track will release the rest to other marques. If we sell out quickly, we can probably negotiate more spots to be made available.

Track Admission Tickets are separate:

Note, Car Corral passes do NOT give entry to the track grounds or paddock. Admission tickets must be purchased here separately. The track split the car corral and admission tickets apart a few years ago because people were complaining they didn't have the flexibility to only pay for the days they planned to attend or to purchase a hospitality package instead of individual day passes.

If you've never been to Monterey Car Week, this is a once in a lifetime opportunity. Be prepared, it's expensive. Hotel prices quadruple their normal room rates that week and the tickets to the track aren't cheap either. Plan ahead so you can be there... with us!

One of our most popular shirts are our BRE 3 Champions shirt that shows the BRE Champion Roadster, 240Z and 510 with the Championship years and drivers.

For Peter's 90th birthday year we're having fun and making a wish true. The first time he saw this license plate bracket on a Bentley

"I'd rather be driving my BRE Datsun"

he talked about it for days and now there's one on his car too. Now you can share in the fun also!

Note: There are two bracket choices you'll be asked to choose from:



1) Upper cut-out bracket: If the month and year stickers are on the top of your license plate you'll want the bracket that has the cutouts at the top so the tags show.

2) Lower cut-out bracket: If the month and year stickers are on the bottom of your license plate you'll want the bracket that has the cutouts at the bottom so the tags show.

Go here to get yours now and let the fun, and the honks, begin!

It's confirmed, our Open House will be October 31st, the Saturday prior to SEMA week, here at our shop in Henderson, NV.

Spoiler alert, odds are that Peter will come dressed as the team manager of the BRE race team!

Schedule - Brock Racing Enterprises

The poster seen here may seem unrelated to BRE but it's actually tied to a very pivotal moment in BRE’s history. As it’s still available we think people have missed this important connection.

This is the 2^nd Grand Prix race where BRE ran their Formula 5000 car with John Morton at the helm. After finishing 3^rd and on the cool down lap, a freak rainstorm hit the end of the straight and the car hit a large body of water which caused it to crash. John says he was told team manager, Pete Brock, was running as fast as he could outside the track wall toward the car to see if John was okay. John is all Pete cared about in that moment. As John was declared okay and the wrecked car brought back to the pits, thoughts then turned to the car. Unfortunately Brock had no more funds left to repair the car and BRE’s Grand Prix days were over.

The BRE car that John ran in this race was the car Sylvia Morton’s classic book on the BRE team, The Stainless Steel Carrot, was named after. We have two of these left. Grab this rare piece of BRE history before it’s gone!
