The third-annual O'Reilly Auto Parts Street Machine & Muscle Car Nationals, March 12–13, at the Fairplex in Pomona, California, will feature a collection of high-performance musclecars, pro-touring cars and street machines from across Southern California. For the third straight year, the Fairplex will donate its net proceeds from the event to the Alex Xydias Center (AXC) for Automotive Arts.
The Pro Builder Face-Off Invitational, a new component to this year’s main event, will feature professional car builders from across the country showcasing their cars and competing for cash and the honor of being named Pro Builder of the Year.
“We [Fairplex] decided from day one to donate our net proceeds from this event to AXC, said Dale Coleman, vice president, chief revenue officer at the Fairplex. “Over the first two years, we have donated more than $80,000. The bigger we make the event, the more we can donate to the charity. This is why we are adding the Pro Builder component.”
