This weekend at the John Force Racing headquarters and museum in Yorba Linda, California, 15-time NHRA Funny Car world champion John Force will welcome all of Southern California to his 14th annual Holiday Car Show. The event will once again benefit California Highway Patrol’s “CHiP’s For Kids” toy drive. The event will be open to the public Sunday, December 4th from 10 a.m. until 4 p.m.
Spectator admission is a new $10 unwrapped toy. Last year tens of thousands of people wandered through one of the largest collections of vintage cars, trucks and street rods. Throughout the day toys, stuffed animals and games poured into the John Force Racing shop as fans toured the shop and John Force RaceStation.
The car show is open to all Sports Cars, Street Rods, Classics, Trucks, Muscle Cars and Exotics. There will be plenty of vendors and this family friendly event will have something for everyone. The ‘featured vehicles’ this year are Pontiacs.
Unique display cars include:
- The crashed funny car from John Force’s crash in 2007 at the Texas Motorplex
- Two Batmobiles
- Mike Ryan’s Freightliner Race Truck
- ‘Speed Demon’ 462mph Bonneville car
