Five Dealerships. One Wild Ride. A Community United by Heart-Pounding Fun.
On June 1st, 2025, the engines roared and the crowd went wild as the annual Slinger SlamFest kicked off its first event of the summer with an epic dose of excitement—and Kunes Auto Group was right there in the middle of the action. Proudly represented by five Walworth County dealerships and in partnership with Camp Timber-lee, Kunes co-sponsored a car that stood out in both design and performance.
🏁 The Kunes-Timber-lee Team Hits the Track
Representing Kunes at this year's demolition-style thrill show were:
- Delavan Ford
- Delavan Chevy Cadillac
- Elkhorn Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram
- Elkhorn GMC
- Lake Geneva GMC
These five powerhouse locations joined forces with Camp Timber-lee to sponsor and customize a bold entry into the madness of SlamFest—an event known for its outrageous, rule-defying races like the Backwards Race and Pretzel Race. If it’s got roaring engines and flying fenders, you can bet SlamFest has it.
🎨 A Design That Says It All
The sponsored car was more than just a vehicle—it was a vibrant symbol of local unity. Prominently displayed on one side, the iconic Timber-lee logo—a trio of pines above tranquil lake waves—stood proudly alongside a bold red heart and the unmistakable “KUNES” lettering. Together, they sent a powerful message: we love and support our community.
💬 Why We Do It
At Kunes Auto Group, our commitment to giving back extends far beyond the showroom. Slinger SlamFest is more than just entertainment—it’s about building local connections, celebrating family-friendly fun, and supporting local institutions like Camp Timber-lee, a cherished outdoor education and faith-based retreat in East Troy, WI.
Our dealerships thrive because of the communities we serve. That’s why events like these are so important: they bring people together, foster local pride, and create memories that last far longer than the final lap.
📅 What’s Next?
This summer’s Slinger SlamFest continues on June 20, 2025, and we can’t wait to see what our sponsored car gets into next. Whether it's careening backwards through turns or squeezing through tight loops in pretzel-shaped races, one thing’s for sure: Team Kunes + Timber-lee is all in.
