t was all about speed at the World Equestrian Center last month. The Festivals of Speed celebration rolled into town April 30 and May 1, showcasing power, style and exotic automobiles of all varieties. This wasn’t your typical car show, as nearly 80 exotic cars were on hand, providing a unique look at luxury, horsepower and performance. From Porsches and Ferraris to Rolls-Royces, Bentleys, Lamborghinis and more, the space was filled with exceptional machines from all over the world. WEC’s open spaces were packed with remarkable vehicles that included something for everyone, from the classic cars of yesterday to the unimaginable modern power and design of today’s hottest rides. Guests even got a firsthand look at Batman’s Tumbler, which greeted visitors as they entered the venue. Local artist Andres Garcia contributed his talents and live painted his dream car, the iconic Batmobile, before auctioning the piece for a good cause. The event was the first of many coming to the World Equestrian Center. Stay tuned for more!
