Let’s go racing! RPM Nationals 2023
I tell everyone I know who’s into old cars and digs racing about one of my favorite events, the wonderful RPM Nationals. It’s an annual event on the airstrip at Santa Margarita Ranch. It's just so cool to see these 4-bangers and flatheads scream down the airstrip with the drop of the flag.

The show was awesome. So many wonderful trucks were in the buildings and outside. It was a blast. I got to see a few new trucks I hadn’t seen before as well as a couple of debuts from friends. It was an all-around awesome show.
