The huge naval base on Coronado Island is known as the birthplace of naval aviation.  As part of San Diego's annual "Fleet Week" celebration Steve Earle's "General Racing" lays out a 1.6 mile course with pylons and "K Rail" and brings the "Coronado Speed Festival" to the runways and taxiways of the huge, active base. 

Unfortunately, there was a fatality during Saturday's Group 2 event.  Veteran racer Duncan Emmons of Rancho Mirage, CA, suffered a heart attack and died while driving his 1953 Kurtis 500S.
