The Central "Coaster"
is a three day weekend of specialty
automotive displays and activities It
includes a car show,
cruises, swap meet, and poker run,
patterned
after the infamous Reno Hot August Nights. It's open to a
wide variety
of vehicles: hot rods, customs, sports cars, trucks,
muscle cars, antiques,
classics, motorcycles, race cars, drag boats,
tractors, dune buggies, and others
considered special-interest or collectible.
The event motto is,
"If
it makes noise, vibrates and has a potential to leak oil....we love it!"
This wide-open approach, combined with the
variety of
events scheduled, virtually assure the participants, and spectators
alike,
of a fun filled weekend. The Buellton community is welcoming
the specialty vehicle visitors. Local businesses will provide open house
opportunities, live entertainment, and gift bags for the registered participants.
The Marriott Hotel is event headquarters. Ellen's Cafe will be
converted to a "Hot Rod Cafe", with menus reflecting
the choices of the 50's and 60's, and waitresses in poodle skirts.
The Saturday non-judged car show on
Buellton's famous Avenue of the Flags will anchor
the three-day celebration. Classic activities such as the
Friday and Saturday evening 'structured' cruises,
and Sunday 'Poker Run', will be contrasted with more creative events
like the 'Gravity Drags' (soap box derby for adults),
petroleum and racing museum tours, and daytime wine tours
and cruises through the beautiful Santa Ynez Valley. Join us, won't you?
