FORT WORTH, TX, UNITED STATES, September 2, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ -- Goodguys Rod & Custom Association, the world’s largest hot rodding association and producer of America’s Favorite Car Show, is looking forward to welcoming over 2,000 classic cars and trick trucks to its 28th Griot’s Garage Colorado Nationals, September 11-13.

The Griot’s Garage Colorado Nationals takes place at the newly renovated Ranch Events Complex in Loveland, just north of Denver. Specialty vehicles built in and before 1999 are welcome to roll in on Friday, including vintage street rods, muscle cars, customs and pro-touring street machines. On Saturday, participants get to compete for a regional Finalist position in the Goodguys Top 12 of the Year Awards presented by Surventis including the Snap-on Muscle Car, LMC Truck (Early), and Griot’s Garage Muscle Machine. There are also over 70 other unique awards up for grabs including the Builders Choice Top 10 being selected renowned local builder, Ron Jones of Ron Jones Garage.

The family fun weekend has plenty for the kids to enjoy starting with the Auto World Family Fun Zone packed with games and crafts, a free Model Car Take-and-Make and model car display. When the kids are done, search for parts and collectibles at the swap meet and maybe score a new project to drive home from the Cars 4-Sale Corral and you don’t want to miss hearing the raw power and smell of nitro from the Nitro Thunderfest exhibition dragsters

Exciting racing action takes place all three days on the Goodguys Autocross where drivers compete to qualify for a position to compete in Saturday afternoon’s Western States Shootout. The show and more racing continues Sunday for all years of American made or powered vehicles with a shot to race in the All American Shootout as part of the Meguiar’s All American Sunday, so be sure to drive your newer Mustang, Corvette or Challenger out on Sunday!
