What a great time at the Center Theater on 66 today! This crew is the best! We certainly appreciate the partnership for this movie.

We have a solid bunch of Hot Rodders here in Miami that came out to cruise down to Vinita to watch American Graffiti on the big screen.

May of 1974, my dad took me to Tulsa’s Dragstrip to watch Evel Knievel jump over 13 Mack Trucks. That same year he attempted to jump the Snake River Canyon in Twin Falls, Idaho. My lovely wife navigated us to the jump site. Holy Ground people! It was awesome to actually be standing on the earth ramp, and see the concrete base for the Sky Cycle’s ramp. Thank you Mrs HRC!

HRC will be closed from July 3 until July 13. We are loaded up to do the HRC Idaho Tour.

Don’t forget that we have partnered with The Center Theater in Vinita for a FREE showing of American Graffiti on Sunday July 12th at 4pm. This is a great show (the best in my opinion), and we’re hoping to fill the historic theater as well as line Vinita’s Main Street with Hot Rods. If you want to cruise to Vinita we will be leaving HRC at 2:30pm.
