The 31st Annual Chrysler Employee Motorsport Association (CEMA) Show:

After A Two-Year Hiatus, It Didn't Disappoint...

This past Saturday, we attended the Chrysler Employee Motorsport Association (CEMA) car show held on the grounds of the Chrysler Technical Center (CTC) in Auburn Hills, Michigan. It marked the return of the annual event after a two-year hiatus due to the COVID pandemic.

CEMA is a non-profit group of Chrysler employees and retirees who get together to do different car events and share their passion for vehicles. The group doesn’t have restrictions on members being Mopar owners either. Many of the members own vehicles from other brands and even a few members have motorcycle collections. The annual CEMA show on the CTC grounds usually attracts a good number of both CEMA and non-CEMA members.

For the past several years, the money raised from the event has gone to the amazing Leader Dogs For The Blind organization. The program is for the training of dogs to assist the blind in their everyday lives and giving those dogs to owners in need. Money raised at the event is not from spectator fees, but the entry fee of the cars participating. So the event is open to the public at no cost.

Surprisingly, this year the event returned to the parking lot of the former Walter P. Chrysler Museum, which is now the North American headquarters for the Alfa Romeo and Maserati brands.

Among the most popular vehicles at the event were Head of Stellantis Design, Ralph Gilles’ Hellephant-powered carbon-fiber bodied 1968 Dodge Charger built by SpeedKore Performance called “Hellucination”, the famed street-racing 1970 Dodge HEMI Challenger R/T SE legend called “The Black Ghost”, and a Dukes of Hazzard 1969 Dodge Charger drift-car used in the 2005 movie.

The CEMA organization sure knows how to put an amazing event together and really knows how to bring the Mopar community and car community in general together. If you are a Mopar fan, this is one event you will have to put on your Mopar bucket list for sure.
