East Carolina Autofest Mission
The mission of the East Carolina Autofest is to educate the public about the auto industry from restoration to racing. The East Carolina Autofest aims to establish an event so automotive related businesses and facilities related to restoration, aftermarket, and motorsports can network and combine resources to better serve their customers.
Starstruck, LLC Mission-Automotive
The mission of Starstruck, LLC is to bring more automotive hobby, motorsports activities and events, and even facilities to Eastern North Carolina. There are so many facets of the automotive market and North Carolina is a major player, especially in the piedmont and western regions of the state. Eastern North Carolina contributes to North Carolina's 6 billion dollar aftermarket and motorsports industry but is not organized or well represented. The automotive market especially restoration, aftermarket, and motorsports will continue to expand and will not necessarily be affected by the major automobile manufacturers business situations. Eastern North Carolina's economy is growing thanks to the military, higher education, location, and climate. The future of North Carolina as well as the country depends on k-12 education and the automotive industry especially motorsports can contribute through various applications of math and science. We aim to promote motorsports for business, education, and recreation in Eastern North Carolina.
