The Stars, Stripes and White Lines Truck Show, put on by the Bennett Family of Companies, is set to kick off later this week, Nov. 7-8.
The event is being held at the EchoPark Speedway (formerly Atlanta Motor Speedway) in Hampton, Georgia, just south of Atlanta, celebrating show trucks from around the country, including invite-only classes, wash-and-show classes, and patriotic-themed trucks. Jeeps, motorcycles and more festivities add to the multifaceted event, now in its second year.
The inaugural show took place last fall and featured various show truck classes, a Jeep show and live music performances from Lindsay Lawler and Tony Justice, among other activities. Last year’s fundraising efforts brought more than $20,000 for Wreaths Across America through a live auction.
Building on that success, the 2025 event will feature elite trucks competing in the National Truck Show Championship, which organizers are billing as “trucking’s National Championship,” with a group of entries seen at various truck shows throughout the year and invited here. The group will be judged on their appearance, design, craftsmanship, and overall aesthetic.
Additionally, a variety of other working-truck divisions invite competitors, Jeep and motorcycle classes as well. There's a $10,000 golf ball drop, vendors and a live auction with proceeds benefiting Wreaths Across America.
Entrants can also purchase track laps to take their vehicles (bobtails only for trucks, plus Jeeps, motorcycles and other cars) around the speedway.
Live entertainment includes a performance by trucker-songwriter Tony Justice Friday night, Nov. 7, followed by a light show among competitors. Overdrive contributor, truck driver and singer-songwriter Long Haul Paul Marhoefer will perform at noon on Saturday, with Psycho DeVilles and Mark Ware following Saturday evening. The show’s full schedule can be viewed here.
