Octane-Fest returned to Alpine last month, and with it a parade of Cobras, Corvettes, Vipers, Mustangs, and other hot cars gracing Big Bend highways and byways. Sponsored by The Stable (Dave Durant), Lund Racing, Team Shelby Texas Central Plains, and the Alamo Area Corvette Club, the event brought three car clubs to Alpine, and they were joined by several on-their-own and local drivers. A Sunday night pizza party was held at The Stable. Car show winners were announced, along with silent auction and 50-50 raffle winners. The event raised more than $9,000 for the Alpine Christian School, a designated non-profit. Durant stressed that participants patronized local hotels, restaurants, clubs, and service stations, not only in Alpine but all around the Big Bend. “Everybody enjoyed coming out here even more this year because of the COVID situation,” said Durant. “We had a lot of folks return, but we also had many new drivers who didn’t attend last year. The participants I talked with were all very pleased, and many are already looking forward to coming back next year for our annual event.”
