Each year more than 7,000 muscle cars, street rods and everything in between head to the Minnesota state capital in mid-July for the St. Paul Street Machine Nationals. The COMP Performance Group (CPG) brands have been an integral part of the program for years, and will be again in 2015.

Scheduled for July 17-19 at the Minnesota State Fairgrounds, the St. Paul Street Machine Nationals feature some of the hottest cars and “Minnesota nice” people from around the North Star State and across the nation.

“This is one of our very favorite events,” said COMP Performance Group VP of Marketing Chris Douglas. “It’s always fun to meet new car people and see old friends, while checking out such an amazing collection of vehicles. Plus you just can’t beat Minnesota weather in July.”

This year, COMP Cams will serve as the Main Stage sponsor, with TCI participating as an Event Level supporter. The CPG trailer will be located in its usual spot near the event entrance, providing showgoers easy access. At the trailer expertly trained techs will sell parts and apparel, and dispense valuable advice.

The popular COMP Cams Engine Builder Duel competitions will also take place in St. Paul, with four contests scheduled throughout the weekend. In the program, a pair of two-person teams competes head-to-head to determine which one can assemble and fire a Small Block Chevy engine in the shortest amount of time. The winners each receive a $250 COMP Cams product certificate, while the runners-up are provided with $125 certificates from the valve train leader. The fastest time in Engine Builder Duel history was recorded in St. Paul in 2014 at just over twenty minutes.

Finally, unique to the St. Paul Street Machine Nationals is the COMP Cams VIP Area. Up to 15 vehicles are hand-selected via CPG social media outlets to receive prime parking near the company trailer, free refreshments, a variety of complimentary CPG promotional items and much more.

As always, the CPG social media team will be on-site, documenting all of the happenings around St. Paul for Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and YouTube. For more information and to register, visit www.streetmachinenationals.net.
