Gill Campbell, the long-time CEO and General Manager of Laguna Seca
Raceway, is no longer with the historic road course located in Monterey, California.

In an email to Roadracingworld.com, Campbell wrote that her current
position as Sr. Vice President of Event Operations had been “eliminated.”

After a successful career as an event planner, Campbell was hired by
the Sports Car Racing Association of the Monterey Peninsula (SCRAMP) as General
Manager and CEO of Laguna Seca Raceway in 2001.

SCRAMP built Laguna Seca Raceway on land owned by the U.S. Army and is
contracted to manage the Laguna Seca Recreation Area on behalf of Monterey
County, which oversees the use of the land.

During her tenure, Campbell helped sell the naming rights of the track
to Mazda, a multi-million-dollar deal that lasted in total from 2001 to 2018.
Campbell was then integral to signing Yamaha as the official motorcycle of
Laguna Seca, a deal that ultimately lasted from 2004 through 2014.

Millions from the Yamaha deal were used to do improvements to the track
that led to the return of the MotoGP World Championship in 2005. The 2009 Red
Bull U.S. Grand Prix event alone was estimated to have brought $100 million in economic
impact to the Monterey area.

In 2017, after a long period of negotiations and uncertainty, SCRAMP reached
a new management agreement with the Monterey County Board of Supervisors. Soon
after, SCRAMP demoted Campbell from CEO/GM to Sr. VP of Event Operations.

In 2018, shortly after a new naming rights sponsorship deal was signed
with WeatherTech, Timothy P. McGrane was hired by SCRAMP as CEO of WeatherTech
Raceway Laguna Seca.

In her email, Campbell wrote that she hopes to find a new position
within the motorsports industry.
