WELLBORN INVITATIONAL AT THE TALLADEGA SUPER SPEEDWAY!
One thing we all know is that if Tim and Pam Wellborn are involved, it will be over the top. As gracious hosts and passionate enthusiasts, they have held some of the best Aero Car events ever, and this week they are geared up and ready for the Wellborn Invitational. "We have partnered with The International Motorsports Hall of Fame and The Talladega Super Speedway!" Tim told us, and that means everyone, whether showing a car or coming in as a spectator is going to have a blast.
The Wellborn Invitational will take place Friday, October 14th - Saturday, October 15th, 2022 at the International Motorsports Hall of Fame in Talladega, Alabama. It is a celebration of all vintage Muscle Cars from 1964-1974. Of course, Tim and Pam will take it to the next level by kicking off the event right at the Wellborn Muscle Car Museum for Mopars at the Museum, Thursday, October 13. You'll be able to get a personal look at one of the absolute finest collections of prime American Muscle in a setting that is as neat as the cars, with the surrounding area filled with Mopars. Be sure to look at the walls, the ceiling and everywhere else, as there is so much to see! And with Tim and Pam on hand as Hosts, it really doesn't get any better.
Friday, activities kick off at the International Motorsports Hall of Fame at the Talladega Super Speedway with the Wellborn Invitational along with a huge show featuring 1964-1974 Muscle. There are all kinds of activities going on Friday and Saturday, so check out https://www.wellbornmusclecarmuseum.com/wellborn-invitational for the schedule. To say this is a must see/must do event is an understatement!
