What is Founders’ Day?
Founders’ Day is a callback to the founders of Lane Automotive, George and Janet Lane. Well before George started Lane Automotive in 1964, George had a passion for hot rods and drag racing and loved connecting with others who had similar passions. In 2024, Lane Automotive started the Founders’ Day Cruise-In to celebrate this love of hot rods and performance cars, and bring like-minded people together in memory of George and Janet.
