Winners at 2016 NSRA Street Rod Nationals …

Rockin’ the Kentucky Expo Center on Sunday, the huge Circle of Winners was presented inside Freedom Hall as all the top cars were honored here at the 2016 NSRA Street Rod Nationals on Sunday. One of the coveted categories is called the Pros’ Picks where top professional builders are asked to chose their favorite built street rods and custom cars. Also included in the Circle of Winners were the UPS Commercial picks, an award for outstanding use of color, the Mopar Country entries, and a special award called the Long Distance award for the car that had traveled farthest to exhibit here in Louisville.
