Ready or not, it's just 2 weeks away..  The sound of engines roaring, the distinct odor
of burning rubber and gas, bright shiny paint jobs, cars, cars and more cars on the Parkway in Pigeon Forge!

The rods, the muscle cars, the beaming show cars, the classic Chevy Super Sports and Ford Mustangs are just the start! Then there are the car lovers !!! There in all their glory with shirts matching their beloved machines! It's a hoot, really...

Spring Grand Rod Run - April 15-17, 2011

Springfest in Pigeon Forge brings thousands of classic cars from around the country for the show and competition. 

The Spring Grand Rod Run is April 15 – 17, 2011 it kicks off the car show season with classic Fords, Chevy/GMCs and Gold Wings. These cars and trucks are exciting to see drive by but are even better to sit in or take a look under the hood, which is what some of the thousands of visitors do as they walk the Parkway.

The participants in these car shows are so eager to get the weekend started that the Parkway and hotel parking lots begin to fill with classic cars on Tuesday of that week. The events feature more than just rare and unique autos, though. Throughout the event weekend, visitors can enjoy interactive displays presented by vendors from all over the country.

Those who enjoy the mechanical aspects of the auto world will savor the opportunity to participate in workshops and get answers to technical questions here at the Rod Run.
