While this is indeed a great measure of success for the Super Car Club, what is most gratifying is the increasing number of people who are visiting us. It’s very encouraging to see to more and more people coming to the show, and a correspondingly increasing number of super car owners participating in all our events. In addition to the Parx Super Car Show, the Super Car Club has been organizing expeditions like the Leh-Ladakh expedition, ice-driving expedition and several other drives.”
