Welcome to Flashback Cruz!
In 2018, Flashback Cruz underwent a complete overhaul, including the introduction of a Board of Directors. Six local car gurus came together to revamp this long loved event, and to show the Pacific Northwest that this car show is not to be missed. 2019 saw the introduction of two new directors, and they are thrilled to be a part of Flashback Cruz.
Only 400 cars will show, so don’t delay on reserving your spot. Read below to meet the crew, and then head over to registration.
See you in August!
