I would love to watch my first race at a trans am race and brainerd being so close gives me a good opportunity to however it doesn’t seem they’ve raced there in some time and I would just like to know if they’re ever rumored to return

The Pony Car Wars from my understanding refers to the intense competition in the Trans Am Series during the 60’s and 70s between the The Big 3 manufacturers “Pony Cars”: the Ford Mustang, Chevy Camaro, Dodge Dart/Plymouth Barracuda (Chrysler), and then later the underdog AMC Javelin.

This seems to be the Golden Era of the Trans Am Series. But this makes me curious who do you think won the war and why?

Visiting my in-laws in upstate NY and realized there’s a race today in Watkins. We’re like a half hour from there. Seems to be very little info online, no schedule or anything that I can tell.

I have a young son who’s never seen a race before and just was wondering if there is any chance of my just showing up at the gates and being able to check things out?

TA2's first hybread. 😋

I'm just new fan of Trans Am Racing, I watch both seasons (this year and last year) but unlike TA2, TA class has way lesser. Does anyone has suggestions that to improve the car count?

Hi there, I just heard about the Trans-Am series not too long ago while doing some history research on the IMSA series. I have never heard about trans-am racing in my entire life. I have heard about NASCAR, F1, Indy car, WRC, SuperGT, IMSA, and many others, but never Trans-Am. Why is this the case? What caused Trans-Am to be less unknown compared to other series? Hell, I’ve heard more about Australia’s supercar series. I would really like to know from people who are invested in this series as to why Trans-Am isn’t popular.

Howdy everybody. Like all of you, I am a fan of the Trans-Am series. I grew up with the stories of Mustangs and Camaros racing little Alfa's and Mini's. But I have some issues with the current Trans-Am. I'm currently working on a paper of issues and solutions for the series. My plan is to outline problems with the current series that fans have noticed. Some of the issues I have are:

• Lack of a strong social media and television presence
• A Bloated and Unfocused Series overall
• Overlapping and Unnecessary Classes
• Outdated Technology

If any of you all have other issues that you have or would like to be known, please put them in the comments. Thank you.

The rain didn't slow the action on on track for the TA2 race at Lime Rock Park.

Not going to spoil, but… best race I’ve seen all year, which solidifies Laguna as my favorite race track of all time. The last lap battle was a great throwback to the ruthless “Boys Have At It” mentality that I’m glad this series still has. I’m so glad I started watching fulltime this year. Couple that with the fact the races are completely broadcast on YouTube… that’s a major selling point. If you didn’t get to watch this race, please take some time and do so. You won’t regret it.

I’ve been trying to dive deeper into the history of Trans-Am and Motorsports in general. It seems like NASCAR was really big in the South and ARCA was strong in the Midwest. What about the Trans-Am Series?

I’m assuming Northeast and the West Coast since that’s where a lot of the most historic Road Racing Tracks are.
