on Friday, drivers from all over the country brought their best custom hot rods to see how they matchup with others for the annual 'Run What Ya Brung' race for KKOA. Rex Walker, a participant of the event talked about his experience after racing.

"You go on ahead, come out here, run what ya brung and just put the metal to it," said Walker.
