1st Annual 316 ModernMOPAR Lupus Awareness Cruise
Local car club 316 ModernMOPAR hosted a Lupus Awareness cruise open to all cars to kick off the Memorial Weekend. Check out some of the sights and cars after the jump!
316 ModernMOPAR has multiple members affected by Lupus, and wanted to raise awareness of the disease in the Wichita area. Lupus is an auto-immune disease more commonly affecting women without a known cure so far. To raise awareness about Lupus, the club organized this event for cars of all models to meet at Hartman Arena, hear a PSA about Lupus for all in attendance, cruise Broadway Avenue through part of Wichita to O.J. Watson Park, and finally raffle off products donated by the sponsoring companies including (in no particular order):
- Cycle Gear
- KAKE
- Hartman Arena
- Adam's Polishes
- The Alley
- O.J. Watson Park
- 316 Customs
- Xtreme Racing
- Wichita Clear Bra
- Khaos Apparel
- Monkeyshine Speed Shop
- Davis-Moore
- GForce Performance Engineering
- 103.7 KEYN
- Big Jon Racing
This event was one of the largest events 316 ModernMOPAR has had yet with excellent representation from its members, and for the first time, from members of other car clubs. Remarkable cars from 316MM included multiple Hellcats, a Viper, and a RAM SRT10; and remarkable cars from other clubs included a Lamborghini Huracan Underground Racing, a Shelby Series 1, and a Lotus Esprit.
The event was a big success and the 316ModernMOPAR club was very proud to host such an event and look forward to other opportunities in the car community.
