Here's a photo set from the pit area of 28th Historic Grand Race held between 18th & 19th of August at the Ahvenisto Race Circuit. Event showcased three major themes which were 40th anniversary of Mini 1000 race class, 70th anniversary of Porsche and 50th anniversary of Ford Escort. Overall 170 drivers from Finland and Sweden took part in the event. Weekend included 18 starts which were divided between different race classes such as Historic Stock/GT & Formula, Roadsport, Subaru Sport, SS 1300, Locost and Mini 1000. There was also a Tourist Trophy exhibition showcasing veteran motorcycles in the middle of the day. At the end of the day when all classes had finished their races visitors were allowed to enter the pit area. I included photos from the hobbyist car park to Part 2/2 - Hobbyist car park.
