MONTEREY, Calif. (July 14, 2025) – Friends of Laguna Seca now offers fans a fresh perspective of the on-track action at WeatherTech Raceway Laguna Seca, as it unveils a $1 million renovation of the facility’s iconic timing and scoring tower, known as the Trilon.
The nearly 78-foot tall, three-sided Trilon has been updated with LED screens on the stem and top three panels. The new screens will provide real-time running order, as well as dynamic race-related graphics and fan information, and will be visible from almost every area around the road course. The fully renovated fan amenity made its debut at last weekend’s MotoAmerica Superbike Speedfest at Monterey event.

The modernization was made possible by a generous donation from the Laguna Seca Raceway Foundation (LSRF), which directed a combined $1 million in gifts to pay for the Trilon’s renovation. Notably, LSRF’s recent donation marks the 15th anniversary of its gift toward the first renovation of the Trilon in 2010.
“We have been focused on delivering improvements and upgrades to restore, revitalize and reinvent Laguna Seca since taking over management of this historic facility last summer,” said Mel Harder, president and general manager of WeatherTech Raceway Laguna Seca. “The amazing donation from the Laguna Seca Raceway Foundation will provide a significantly upgraded experience for our guests and we are thankful for their continued partnership.”
The local 501(c)(3) non-profit Friends of Laguna Seca has assumed the long-term obligation of the operation, maintenance, and improvement of the Laguna Seca Raceway and Recreational Area for the benefit of the local community for the next 55 years.
