18th Annual PPG Syracuse Nationals

A Wicked Horsepower Festival

- Chuck Vranas

♦Nothing says summertime fun better than plotting out an adventure in your hot rod. It’s a time where you can pack a bag, top off the tank, and enjoy the driving experience while you cross the country on both highways and back roads. There’s just something so cool about the excitement that attending a big national event generates as you roll into town to check it all out. Celebrating its 18th year, the PPG Syracuse Nationals is one of the largest rodding events on the East Coast. The weekend horsepower festival welcomed well over 8,000 cars again this year, with everything from hot rods and customs to classic trucks, restos, and race cars, leaving you awestruck. Thanks to thundering V-8s accented by an endless stream of candies, pearls, and metallic colors, the stage was set for a wicked weekend.
