Vintage Torque Fest

In the past, religious revivals were ways for communities to come together and feed the need to congregate and refill the spiritual cup. That is what Vintage Torque Fest feels like, a revival for the true hot rod faithful. Instead of an evangelist dispensing doses of fire and brimstone, the VTF crowd is treated to flame-throwing cars, dirt track action, a pin-up contest, and over 600 traditional hot rods and customs. Sixteen bands, an art show and auction, vendors from around the country, and the Tin Butchers swap meet that is specifically designed to cater to only those that have the period correct parts and auto related items - they all add up to the perfect kickoff to the hot rod season for those in the Midwest.
