Twilight Cruise Nights

| | Comments (0) |

The first of nine Twilight Cruise Nights at the Wally Parks NHRA Motorsports Museum in Pomona will be April 4.
The first Wednesday of each month, from April to December, hundreds of hot rods, street rods and muscle cars will convene at the museum.
Twilight Cruise Night, which runs from 4 to 8 p.m., and is hosted by the Cal Rods car club, attracts nearly 400 cars and 1,000 people. It includes raffles, prizes and a huge 50/50 drawing. Admission to the museum is free during Cruise Nights. Budweiser has signed on to sponsor the celebrity judges' picks each Cruise Night. The judges will scour the ranks to find five of the best vintage vehicles worthy of a special prize – a victory lap
at the Auto Club Raceway in Pomona during the Auto Club NHRA Finals, Nov. 9-12.
There are two cruise nights in August and none in September, when the Los Angeles County Fair is at the fairgrounds. The cruise night in July is on the second Wednesday of the month because the first Wednesday is the Fourth of July.
"Cruise Nights have become a tradition here at the Museum," said Greg Sharp, curator of the Parks Museum. "It's become a family favorite for Southern Californians, but we also get folks attending from other states and countries. Even if you're not a car enthusiast, our Cruise Nights are a great way to spend an evening. We get some of the rarest, most creative examples of automobile history around."
