The Fallon Post and Les Schwab hosted the 2023 Car Show Fundraiser last Sunday, September 10, in cooperation with Camacho Auto Sales. Top Gun Dragstrip was the beneficiary of the event. The dragstrip sustained damages of over $100,000 after torrential rains battered the racing facilities last June.
The Family Friendly Pinup Contest brought out some of Fallon’s classic beauties. The event was judged by Pinup Girl Betty Vega, along with sponsor Maverick Boney, with the help of event DJ/MC Davey Munoz.
Several local businesses offered their support, making the event possible. Thanks to Wild West Burgers, Harley Davidson, Kawasaki, My Gypsy Soul, Telegraph Coffee and Tap, Boney Welding and Fabrication, Great Basin Apothecary, Frey Ranch Distillery, Fallon Speedway, Summit Racing, the Alley Bar, Davey's American Auto Racing, Ott’s Farm Equipment, and Satathite’s Accessories and Jewels.
The event hosted nearly 60 vehicles, tractors, and motorcycles of every variety, with prizes awarded for:
