On March 2, at the Parking Lot of Angel Stadium of Anaheim in Orange County, the "Fuel Fest" auto show was held to commemorate the late actor Paul Walker. Thousands of people braved the rain to enter the parade to see hundreds of open cars and modified cars on display.
After Paul Walker, the actor in The Fast and the Furious, died in a car accident in 2013, his family and friends continued to promote their ambition to help the disaster-stricken areas and the vulnerable through the charity car show.
Paul Walker used his influence to establish a "Reach Out Worldwide" charitable foundation to help emergency responders reach disaster areas around the world.
After paul walker's unexpected death, his younger brothers Caleb Walker and Cody Walker assisted the crew in completing footage of the last film Paul was working on, Fast & Furious 7, which had not yet been filmed. Curdy Walker also took over the Global Relief Foundation to continue to promote Paul's original ambitions.
To help the Global Rescue Foundation operate, Curdy Walker and friend Chris Lee founded the Petrol Festival Motor Show and will exhibit the proceeds to support the operation of the Global Rescue Foundation.
Curdy Walker explained on the event page that in the process of growing up, the car was a topic of concern for the Walker family. He got a mini jeep at Christmas when he was 4 years old, and under the supervision of his eldest brother (Paul), he later joined the racing track to participate in racing. Paul influenced him in many ways of life.
As Paul's career grew better and better, his car collection gave Cody access to many different types of cars, so when Curdy founded the "Gasoline Festival" auto show, he hoped to create some car culture projects that could be shared by car lovers through the event.
On the 2nd,2000s, despite the windy and rainy days, enthusiastic fans and fans still braved the rain to admire the famous cars, many fans were drenched and felt worthwhile, and many people brought young children to the scene to establish children's love and appreciation of cars from an early age.
