Beard drives a Volare with K&N Engineering products and is doing well this racing season. He had problems with a header tube before the race began. “A driver header had cracked clean through,” said Beard. “I rigged together a patch using two Mountain Dew cans and a pair of hose clamps.”

After that quick fix, Beard drove through seven rounds of eliminations and finished in the quarterfinals. Three days of racing saw winners crowned with a total purse of $70,000. Beard earned accolades in the Run for the Money, where he tied with two other drivers for a share in the cash. He lost out in the $50,000 main prize by the end of the second round.

In the feature, Beard defeated Tim Clinton’s Chevelle in the semifinals and took home $10,000. “We were running around so fast that I didn’t have time to think about anything,” said Beard. “When the last win light came on, it was unbelievable.”

Beard’s 1980 Plymouth Volare is powered by a Mopar 360 Magnum crate motor, tipping the scales at 3600 pounds to run in the J/CM (Crate Motor) class in stock eliminator. “We use K&N oil filters, K&N air filters and K&N valve breather covers,” said Beard. “I’m so happy to be able to win for a great sponsor like K&N Filters.”

Classic Corvettes, Camaros, and vintage Chevy trucks from all over Southern California were featured in the event sponsored by K&N Engineering and produced by both the Riverside East Rotary Club and Old Farts Racing Club. “K&N sponsors so many car shows and race events throughout the country that it is really a thrill to sponsor one in the community that helped us grow.” K&N Engineering CEO Steve Rogers said. “It’s a great way to give back to the community. The same community we’ve been making air filters in since 1969.”

The Show and Go Car Show helps local charities in the Riverside community as well as surrounding areas. “It began as a small car show,” Mark Godfrey of the Riverside East Rotary Club said. “It has grown into one of the largest events in Riverside.

In addition to raising money for many causes throughout the Riverside, California community, Show and Go gives many car owners an opportunity to show off years of hard work with their custom automotive projects.

R.A. Barnett of the Old Farts Racing Club was glad to show how much time and effort he had poured into his 1958 Corvette. “All of these cars have a story,” Barnett said. “Some were found in a field and built from the ground up.”

Thanks to a beautiful weekend the event had a large turnout. Both car owners and event sponsors look forward to another great showing next year.
