Good Guys Car Show was held at the same time as Pate!
Goodguys has traditionally kicked off their event season in March with the LMC Truck Spring Lone Star Nationals presented by TREMEC, but for 2024, this popular event was moved to later in the spring to the weekend of April 26 - 28 to coincide with the historic Pate Swap Meet, the country’s premier automotive swap meet. The event also featured exciting new attractions such as an all-new drift exhibition and Friday night drag racing, the moving of Goodguys CPP AutoCross racing action to the Texas Motor Speedway road course and more in an effort to create an even bigger can’t-miss event for gearheads across the southwest to experience.
“The overall event utilized multiple areas of Texas Motor Speedway facility,” said Texas Motor Speedway Executive Vice President & GM Mark Faber. “With Goodguys taking over the entire infield plus the Pate Swap Meet spanning the asphalt parking area, it was a very memorable weekend for everyone.”
And resulted in the biggest Pate Swap Meet ever held.
Glad everything worked out but don't do it again. Speaking as both a GoodGuys member that brings a car to every GoodGuys event at Texas Motor Speedway and a Pate vendor with 10 spaces since the 70's I cannot do both on the same weekend. Go back to separate weekends for each event!!!!
