A Three-Day, Backroads Driving Adventure Through California’s Central Coast, Oct. 24–26, 2025; Curated by the Originators of Collector Car Community.
CHARLOTTE, NC/BENNINGTON, VT (SEPT. 23, 2025) — Hemmings Motor Club (HMC), powered by Hemmings, the world’s largest, online collector car marketplace, is calling on passionate collector car owners to hit the open road this fall for an unforgettable driving experience – the HMC Rally: Paso Robles – taking place October 24–26, 2025 in Paso Robles, California.
This three-day rally invites drivers to embark on a meticulously curated road trip through Central California’s most-scenic and spirited backroads, converging in the famed wine country of Paso Robles during the height of harvest season. Designed for those who live to drive, the Rally offers the rare opportunity to share the road, and the passion, with a like-minded community of fellow collector car enthusiasts.
Participants will depart from either the San Francisco Bay Area or northern Los Angeles County on Friday, October 24, for a 220-mile route through stunning backroads, arriving in Paso Robles for a hosted welcome reception. Saturday, October 25, features a 230-mile Central Coast loop, including a mid-route burger stop and an evening poolside taco bar capped by a fireside chat with motorsports legend Brock Yates Jr. and Hemmings’ own Mike Musto. The rally concludes Sunday morning, October 26, with a spirited 50-mile drive to the Pacific coast for a proper sendoff.
“The HMC Rally: Paso Robles puts great cars on great roads. These machines were meant to be driven, and the best way to honor them is to experience them together,” said Jonathan Shaw, President of Hemmings.
