HCCA 1-DAY GRIZZLY BEAR TOUR
May 2
(Just Before the HCCA Bakersfield Swap Meet)
Join us on the 2024 Grizzly Bear Tour from Bakersfield to Porterville (100-mile round trip).
- We meet at the parking lot of the Famoso Drag Strip (location of the 2024 HCCA Swap Meet) on Thursday, May 2, 2024 at 8:30 am.
- Tour directions will be handed out and the tour leaves for Porterville Community College at 9 am.
- Expected arrival (50 miles) is around 10:30 am.
- Cars will be parked on campus for an informal ‘car show’ and a presentation on the early development of automobiles in the US will be given in the campus theatre.
- Cars will stay on-campus until noon and tourists can get lunch in Porterville (lunch on your own) and then meet at 1:30 pm for our drive back to the Famoso Drag Strip (a different route through the foothills).
- There will not be a trouble truck so have your towing service up-to-date.
Please register by emailing the Tour Director.
