Gordon and
Molly McCall celebrated the 25th anniversary of the Motorworks
Revival at the Monterey Jet Center on Wednesday, August 17th with a proper party that continues
to evolve. It had all the requisite aircraft, cars, appetizers, and ambiance.
This year a live DJ at 9pm was joined by a live drummer and violinist for a
modern dance party. Needless to say, this party rocked.
Non-Red
Carpet parking was well organized with comfortable shuttles delivering guests
to the Monterey Jet Center. The caliber of cars in the remote lot and the
number of helpful attendants made it hassle free. The complimentary
professional photography at the entrance is always a treat.
Once past
the entry its always, “Mind blown” with photography and ogle time. Modern and
classic aircraft, specialty vehicles and stunning examples from various
manufacturers. In the hanger itself, Koenigsegg had the Regera, Agera S and CCX
there. Pagani had several models, McLaren, Alpha Romeo including the upcoming
Giulia, Acura with the NSX, and Toyota had the Kyle Busch 2015 Sprint Cup Camry
along with other Toyota racing standouts. Vintage motorcycles and war planes,
executive jets, fine jewelry and more offered an incredible variety of visual
treats.
Interestingly
the second hanger wasn’t open this year without any detriment and kept the crowd
from thinning out too much. One complaint was that there needed to be more
places to sit, either to take a break, enjoy the wine, or rest some weary feet
especially for the ladies in heels. There was no goody bag this year but the
event lifestyle program is excellent and the branded wineglasses were favorite
keepsakes so the bags weren’t necessary.
Food and
drink seemed endless with four top chefs and six wineries kept the crowd well
fed and in a party mood. Tickets are
available far in advance every year, this year for $395 and the excellent CHP
11-99 foundation continues to be the beneficiary of the raffle. Every year
Gordon and Molly McCall continue to evolve the party with world class vehicles,
food, drink and entertainment. It’s the Monterey car week kickoff party that
should not be missed.
