Sycamore's Turning Back Time Car Show
Sun, Jul 27 , 2025 7:00am - 3:00pm
100 W State Street, Sycamore, IL 60115
The Fizz Ehrler Memorial Turning Back Time Car Show is an annual gathering of a wide variety of automotive art set in the historic downtown area of Sycamore, Illinois. Drag racing to street performance cars!
The party includes Street Rods, Street Machines, Rat Rods, Custom Trucks, Race Cars, Antiques, Classics and more. The last Sunday in July is marked by the unmistakable sounds of American V8 power etching the stillness of dawn as car people from several surrounding states descend on the entrance gate in search of the good time-sharing works of mechanical art with their fellow enthusiasts.
But it’s not only car people that show up in town for the fun, as spectators of all ages converge to soak up the sights, sounds and spectacle. The show has become the go to event for thousands of motor sports fans and participants!
