The Horizon West Car Fest sped into Hamlin on Saturday, Dec. 17.
The event, run by father and son duo Eric and Alex Jacky, featured dream cars of all types including exotics, classics, super cars and European models.
The family friendly show was themed for the holidays, complete with a visit from Santa Claus and a toy collection for Toys for Tots.
Unlike most car shows, the Jackys knew they wanted the car show not to be categorized — and to welcome anyone with an excitement or interest in cars.
“We wanted to do a different type of show and have it be specifically for kids to come and hang out and enjoy the cars,” Eric Jacky said. “We wanted to create more of a festival aspect for families to attend instead of shows that typically cater to just the car owners.”
The next Car Fest will take place in the spring with a Go Kart race following. People who want to participate will head over to Orlando Kart Center together.
