This is a call for all car enthusiasts and proud owners of custom and classic marvels to showcase their passion and stand wheel-to-wheel with the best of the best. More than 1,000 spectators attend the annual event each year. There are multiple categories to register your car, truck, motorcycle, bike, and club.
In addition to showcasing impressive vehicles, the car show also supports SVCTE’s Student Competition Group SkillsUSA. Previous events have raised more than $10,000. Attendees can expect a fun-filled evening of raffles, prizes, delicious food from SVCTE’s Culinary Arts students, and live music from Cold Storage, all in support of educational excellence and community unity.
