16th Annual Ridge Route Run
The Ridge Route Run Car Show was established in 2009. This annual event has grown each year and takes place yearly on the Saturday before Memorial Day. The car show features numerous vehicle entries lining Mt. Pinos Way in downtown Frazier Park, CA. Attendees can enjoy an impressive array of vehicles from across California, meet fellow car enthusiasts, breathe in the fresh mountain air, listen to music, win raffle prizes, and much more!
The aim of the show is to raise funds for local organizations by attracting car enthusiasts from across California. It also highlights Frazier Park as a beautiful and charming mountain town, showcasing its recreational opportunities and potential business prospects for residents of Southern and Northern California.
Funds are raised through entry fees, raffles, and event souvenirs. Local businesses also experience significant sales on that day from car show participants and tourists, thereby benefiting the local economy.
Come for the Show, Stay for the weekend!
40th Annual Classic at Pismo
Each year, The Classic at Pismo Beach attracts people and cars from all over the United States, with some coming from as far away as Alaska and even Australia. Big 18-wheelers show up from companies like CarQuest Auto Parts, Mother’s Polish, GM Performance, Ford Motor Co., Budweiser, and many more. The show began in the early 80’s and continues to attract the hottest classic cars each year to this tiny, serene central coast city. Every summer, cars line the streets of this little beach town where spectators enjoy cool cars and great vendors.
This event has a strong connection with participants and fans, annually raising money for important causes and organizations such as the Folds of Honor Foundation, Ronald McDonald House, and the Pismo Beach K-9 Unit. Each year, Just Cruzin’ Life Foundation holds a live charity auction where the sounds of an auctioneer can be heard from afar as donated items like cars, engines, auto accessories, art, and much more are auctioned to raise money for these great causes.
The show happens the first weekend in June, is open to all makes and models of cars, and is free to the public. Judging for this event is peer-judging based on attention to detail, interior, engine compartment, undercarriage, etc. We also award a special “Gold Class” limited to the top ten best of the best. These are hand-picked and held to a higher standard.
There is much more fun to be had at the surrounding attractions like shopping in downtown Pismo Beach, wineries located just miles up the coast, and more. Come join us for a wonderful event. It’s one you won’t want to miss!

RPM Nationals Barona Dragstrip
4/18/26 barona drag strip
This year we’ve teamed up with antique nationals to make it a full weekend event, more info on that at the bottom of the page.
Since year one of rpm nationals we’ve been asked about running later overheads, the answer at rpm nats at Santa margarita ranch has always been “no”. Simply put rpm at the ranch will always be a flathead v8 and banger only race, that was our original goal and we’re stuck in our ways but since “you asked for it” we decided to look into a venue that can accommodate faster cars. What we found was BArona drag strip in San Diego county, it has that old timey feel but is setup with all the safety requirements to run faster cars. So we’re introducing the “rpm Barona drags” .
1963 and earlier era correct, early small block Chevy, Pontiac, Cadillac, Buick, y block, hemi, gmc, etc powered cars as well as flathead v8 and bangers will be welcome. Cars must be 1940 or older and no parts later than 1963, this includes no modern electronics, no modern slicks (towel city, radir or hurst pie crusts recommended, no smooth wall or wrinkle wall) bias rears if not running a recap slick, no radial fronts, no nitrous cheater systems, no billet, no tweed interiors, no visible disc brakes, no independent suspension, etc. all vehicles must aesthetically appear as though they showed up at the track ready to race in a 1964 or earlier time period.
******here’s how to enter******
just like our flathead only race up at The ranch, race entries will be by submissions and pre approval only. Submissions will open on January 1st 2026 Please make sure your car fits the requirements and if you would like to race review the classes below. Pick the class you would like to enter than send an email to us at rpmnationals@gmail.com , in the email include good pictures of your car taken outdoors from all sides, as well as some info about it, engine- make/cubic inch/year, transmission, rear end. Also be sure to include your full name and the class you’d like to enter. Entries submitted by March 31st will get a participant only event shirt, entries after that may still be accepted but won’t receive a shirt. ****note just entering doesn’t guarantee a spot to race*** we will pick the cars that not only fit the criteria of the event best but also make the best competition in each class. If you don’t get approved to race but would still like to attend the event we encourage it as we will also have a car show area by the track.
there will be 9 classes at this event, the first 6 being the same as those at rpm nationals-
4 cylinder flathead street car
v8 flathead street car
4 cylinder ( flathead block) street car with power adder ( overhead conversion or blower)
v8 (flathead block) street car with power adder (overhead conversion or blower)
4 cylinder (flathead block) full race, sprint cars, rails, belly tanks, and/or power adder cars also running nitro
v8 ( flathead block) full race, sprint cars, rails, tanks, early altereds, and/or power adder cars also running nitro
*****the late overhead classes——— for those running engines up to 1964*****
street car
street car with blower
full race
to make a class we will need at least 6 entries, if there aren’t at least 6 in your class you may get bumped up to run the next class above yours.
******tech requirements******
barona is an Nhra track, all cars must pass tech inspection before being allowed to race. if you’ve ran at rpm nationals in the past with a standard 4cyl or Flathead street car the requirements will be similar, except a more modern helmet, and for open cars a long sleeve shirt and arm restraints (style that loop/Velcro over the lap belt are fine) if you are running a faster or ohv car it will need to meet all nhra requirements, including roll bar/cage, wrist restraints for open cars, blower restraints, no flammable material in the drivers area, etc. there’s a good basic brake down of the nhra rules here https://st.hotrod.com/uploads/sites/21/2018/03/NHRA-Racing-Safety-Rules.pdf
if you have any questions or concerns about passing tech please send us an email ahead of time at rpmnationals@gmail.com
*****SPECTATORS******
the spectator gate (the north of the 2 gates) will open Saturday morning at 8am, for general parking. Spectator ticket price is $25 and allows full access to the pits. If you have a 1972 or older vehicle and would like to park in the car show area use the South Gate (racer / vendor entrance) no extra fee to put a car in the show area. Our pals in the lifters cc will be helping out with parking, traditional hot rods/customs down by the stage area and street rod/muscle car era cars down the row.

Choppin' Block Chassis Products brings you the C10 SLO Down 2025: The West Coast Destination Classic GM Truck Show!
This isn’t just a show, it’s a full-on experience. Just steps from the Pacific, the C10 SLO Down lets you cruise the coast, explore downtown Avila Beach, or just chill with your toes in the sand, all while surrounded by some of the cleanest classic GM trucks around.
Make it a weekend to remember—lock in your spot and make sure your whole crew is registered!
At the C10 SLO Down, your truck takes center stage on a coastal golf course. Ocean views, sea breeze, and classic trucks as far as the eye can see.
