Tickets for the event are $60.00 (children under 12 are free) and include event admission for all 4 days.
Additionally, each ticket holder will receive a RI Summer Smash VW Drag Bus designed by Liberty Promotions! Tickets for the Charity Dinner are selling quickly, but still available.
Attendees are encouraged to reserve their hotel room early at the promotional rate of $109.00/night. Contact the Crowe Plaza Hotel directly at 401-732-6000 and mention the "Rhode Island Hot Wheels Club".
