Muscle Car Memories Are At Broadway At The Beach This Weekend

Remember cruising down Ocean Boulevard in a '65 Mustang, top down, hair blowing in the wind? Does the sight of a decades-old Pontiac GTO stir memories of dusty races on empty roads with teenagers cheering?

Gentlemen (and ladies), mark your calendar! The Cruisin' The Beach Car Show is coming to Broadway and it's bringing the memories, as well as the machines.

On October 15, 16 and 17 from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m., you can see classic cars, trucks, motorcycles, street rods and muscle cars. Hosted by the Myrtle Beach Car Club, the event will feature T-shirts, souvenirs, food and drink. Awards, door prizes and trophies will be given out. There will even be a raffle with a portion of the proceeds going to the Children's Hospital of South Carolina.

If a day at the car show fills you with the need for speed, head on over to Broadway's SIM Racing Experience. Strap yourself in, start your engine and experience the thrill of a simulated racing experience.

Or take home the ultimate souvenir, a model of your favorite car from RIDEMAKERZ where kids 4 to 104 can build 1:18 scale cars and trucks. The classic car body styles like Camaro, Viper, and Mustang are all there — and you can even add radio-control. For the littlest car fans in the family, models include Disney-Pixar's Lightning McQueen and Mater, as well as Spiderman vehicles.

This weekend put your pedal to the metal and head to Broadway at the Beach to fuel your passion for classic cars and more.
