Plaques and trophies were awarded in several classes. In addition, People’s Choice and Participant’s Choice winners also received four days hotel accommodations and a spot for their cars in the 2010 SEMA Show in Las Vegas.
Chip Foose, award-winning automotive designer best known for his work on TLC’s “Overhaulin’,” was the event’s grand marshal and signed autographs. Dennis Gage, host of the television program “My Classic Car,” was also on hand to sign autographs.
The Pinewood Drag Races featured more than 100 cars built by the children at Childhelp and Victory Junction Gang Camp.
“Seeing the excitement and smiles from the Childhelp Village kids as their cars raced and won made all the effort and work that the committee put in worth it,” said Joel Ayres, SEMA Cares committee chairman.
All proceeds from the entry fees of both events went to benefit ChildHelp and Victory Junction Gang Camp charities.
