The Paddock to Debut as New Highlight of Monterey Car Week
"Multi-Marque Event Offers Inclusive Platform for Automotive Enthusiasts"
MONTEREY, Calif., April 22, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- The Paddock is set to make its inaugural appearance on Friday, August 15, 2025, at Bayonet Black Horse, on the Monterey Peninsula. Amidst the bustling schedule of Monterey Car Week, The Paddock offers a fresh, accessible venue for a diverse array of vintage, classic, race & rally, and exotic vehicles, providing a luxurious yet relaxed atmosphere away from the downtown crowds.
Tanya Kosta, Chairman of the event, commented: "For years, Concorso Italiano has offered a non-Italian marque display, and now, our parent company International Car Week is offering an expanded version through The Paddock where owners of European, Japanese, American, and other automotive pedigrees can display their prized vehicles. This new platform allows us to embrace a wider range of car enthusiasts and showcase a richer diversity of automotive excellence."
Attendees can enhance their car week experience by renting one of the limited culinary VIP cabanas, perfect for friends, families, car clubs and other groups to gather while enjoying cars and music. These exclusive spaces can be customized with amenities such as food service and a private bar, providing a perfect gathering spot to socialize and enjoy the show in comfort.
Clarence Habovstak, Director of Business Development, shared his excitement about upcoming developments: "We are on the brink of announcing some thrilling additions to The Paddock that will truly enhance the experience for our attendees. Over the next few weeks, we will unveil several specialty displays and unique features that are sure to excite automotive enthusiasts and collectors alike."
Among the early show highlights, Presenting Sponsor Saleen will hold their 25th anniversary celebration of the S7 at The Paddock, gathering several dozen owners and their vehicles in an expansive display on the show field.
Joining the excitement at The Paddock will be RADwood, the premier 80s and 90s automotive lifestyle event celebrating music, fashion, and all things "RAD." Created in 2017 as a gathering for friends in the San Francisco Bay area, RADwood quickly became a success thanks to a community of passionate enthusiasts and the power of social media.
"We are stoked to participate in The Paddock's inaugural Monterey Car Week event with a curated display of the best the RADwood era has to offer. This will include a live DJ, to set the vibe, and many icons including supercars, domestics, and imports alike," said Art Cervantes, co-founder and Director of RADwood. RADwood is more than just a vehicle display. Everyone is encouraged to dress in period-correct attire, and to flaunt their memorabilia. Vehicles from 1980-1999 are welcome to apply for this special showcase at the core of The Paddock event.
Keeping the event accessible is also a priority for the organizers. The ticket prices for The Paddock are set to be affordable, encouraging families to attend and support the "Take a kid to a car show" initiative, which aims to foster a love for automotive culture among younger generations.

Beloved Oregon Restaurant Chain, Bugatti's, Closes Its Last Location
Bugatti's Italian restaurant has developed a loyal following over the years. Its founder is one of the wealthiest people in Oregon, a former newspaper magnate. But now its last location has closed its doors after more than two decades in business. "Bugatti's Oregon City officially closed Sunday after 23 years," wrote Oregon Live on June 9. The restaurant chain's closure marked the end of its last location in the state, the site reported, saying it was a "local Italian chain owned by one of Oregon's wealthiest people." The final restaurant was in the Portland area. The restaurant announced it was closing in a Facebook post on June 5. "To our much-loved community of Oregon City: It is with sad hearts we announce Bugatti's is closing. The last day will be 6.8.2025," the chain wrote. "The reasons and struggles are many. We will be focusing on a busy last week and taking care of staff as best we can. We truly appreciate your patronage and support over the many years and consider our tenure a triumph. Thank you, Oregon City!!" On June 8, the restaurant posted on Facebook, "What a glorious send off for Bugatti's. All our guests came out in droves, our wonderful staff worked their tails off, and we were able to say goodbye to each other. What an incredible team. These are a talented bunch and any company would be lucky to have them. Lots of love to all." In 2024, the restaurant chain closed its other location, the original one. Willamette Week described that restaurant as a "stalwart of West Linn's dining scene for more than 30 years," and reported that the chain was owned by "industrialist Robert Pamplin Jr." The news site noted then that Pamplin was "better known for his ownership of Ross Island Sand & Gravel and for Pamplin Communications, which until earlier this year owned the Portland Tribune and 24 other Oregon newspapers." Customers declared their sadness on the restaurant's Facebook page. "Going to miss you so much Bugatti's you've been my family's special go-to restaurant my entire life. Thank you for so many amazing memories," wrote one. "This feels like waking up to family member passed away. Will definitely miss Bugatti's," wrote another person. A man wrote, "We wish all the employees the best moving forward. You were our go to spot for business lunches and you never disappointed. Our company execs really enjoyed coming to your restaurant. We also had some great date nights before heading to the movies. You will be missed."Beloved Oregon Restaurant Chain, Bugatti's, Closes Its Last Location first appeared on Men's Journal on Jun 10, 2025

Reza also serves as Voltavate's Chairman. Voltavate is building a battery innovation platform to address critical challenges in battery performance, manufacturing efficiency, and sustainability across the energy storage value chain.

Dr. Amir Hooshang Taheri, Co-founder and CEO, said: "We're incredibly grateful to be backed by investors and thought leaders who share our mission. Their support gives us the momentum to scale and deliver real impact in how batteries are made and perform."
