21st NHRA California Hot Rod Reunion Set For This Weekend

Image
This weekend’s 21st NHRA California Hot Rod Reunion presented by Automobile Club of Southern California, October 19-21, in Bakersfield, California, offers three days of hot rodding, nostalgic drag racing, and American automotive enthusiasm—all to support the nonprofit Wally Parks NHRA Motorsports Museum.

For the first time, a silent auction will take place from Friday, October 19 through Saturday, October 20 until 4 p.m. at the "Nitro Alumni" tent at the Auto Club Famoso Raceway.

This auction features over 100 treasures of NHRA memorabilia and American motorsports. Some of the highlights include four Bridgestone or Firestone tires, an original 1964 March Meet jacket, a Mario Andretti race suit, and one-of-a-kind drawings and prints.

All proceeds benefit the programs at the Wally Parks NHRA Motorsports Museum in Pomona, California.
