CANCELLED – The Waldrop Vehicle Collection – Family Event

September 7 @ 9:00 am - 12:00 pm CDT

DUE TO AN UNFORESEEN MEDICAL URGENCY THIS EVENT WAS CANCELLED.

Duke & Fay Waldrop extend a personal invitation to the Hill Country families of the PCA to visit their family “Franch” (between a ranch and a farm) just west of Dripping Springs. Your presence would mean a lot to us.

Note: The address in Dripping Springs will be sent to all Confirmed registrants

From their humble beginnings, Duke and Fay have traveled the country racing cars, boats, and motorbikes.

At the age of 12, Duke borrowed the family boat from his home in Baytown, TX, and participated in his first race. This started a career that led to multiple national and world powerboat championships. Ultimately, Duke was inducted into the Honor Squadron of the America Power Boat Association Hall of Champions.

There are a few race cars at the “Franch,” as Duke competed in Formula Vee with Fay as his sidekick for over 50 years. Not that long ago, he won 23 of 24 races. Those 23 races are a blur, but he can revisit that white flag lap where #24 slipped through his fingers.

High school sweethearts Duke and Fay have been sharing a life of adventures. Duke might have held the wheel during the race, but Fay was there cheering him on and helping load up and transport whatever was being raced from venue to venue.

The Waldrop “Franch” awaits many a story, each vehicle a window into the Waldrop life.

Come and enjoy the Waldrop collection of motorcycles, cars, trucks, and a boat or two. It’s a diverse collection that is sure to excite any vehicle enthusiast. If you’re lucky, you’ll catch Duke or Fay reminiscing about a car, boat, project, or adventure.

Children are encouraged to attend with HCR members. Separate child waivers will be provided on-site.

This event has a $10 Administration Fee.  You can Register Here
