CAR CRAFT Summer Nationals Prepares for Biggest, Baddest Year Yet with Major Move to Milwaukee
Milwaukee, WI (PRWEB) December 10, 2014 -- The CAR CRAFT Summer Nationals will uphold its reputation as America’s premier gathering of street machines and muscle cars as it prepares for the biggest and best event to date, moving to a larger venue at the Wisconsin State Fair Park in West Allis, WI, just outside Milwaukee, July 17-19, 2015.
Showcasing more than 6,000 performance cars and attracting upward of 35,000 enthusiasts from across the country over the course of three days, the CAR CRAFT Summer Nationals is an annual celebration of horsepower, torque, and all things automotive. After more than a decade in St. Paul, MN, the change of venue will bring with it many exciting new features in 2015, including a larger and faster autocross, more car show awards, meet-and-greet opportunities with David Freiburger and Mike Finnegan of ROADKILL, and much more amid the sights and sounds of thousands of high-horsepower vehicles on display. The CAR CRAFT Summer Nationals continues to be the leading, must-attend event for automotive enthusiasts nationwide.
"The Summer Nats grows every year and is one of the biggest shows in the country, but even so, it was time to hit the refresh button and get a larger venue where we could take everything bigger, badder, faster, and louder,” said TEN’s Senior Vice President of Content Strategy David Freiburger. “I'm excited about the opportunities at the Milwaukee Mile, and we'll be adding more and more special activities as show time approaches. People can follow the news at HOTROD.com."
