Our Approach
NOT YOUR AVERAGE CRUISE/RALLYE
With over ten years of experience curating driving events, we strive to provide unique and memorable excursions you can't find anywhere else. In a time where rallies are a dime a dozen, we pride ourselves in cultivating routes that cover the popular bucket list roads and take you on the hidden gem backroads that very few people even know about.
LIFE IS TOO SHORT
In 2013, the passing of his father at a young age motivated Blacktop Excursions founder Eli Pupavatz to start this adventure that has been going on for more than 10 years. It was an eye opening and life changing moment that showed life is truly too short. This motivation fuels the efforts to create new and exciting excursions to experience with friends and family, creating memories that will last a lifetime.
Meet the MASTERMINDS
We use the term "Masterminds" loosely. We are just a group of like-minded automotive enthusiasts who want to share our dreams of exploring the open road with the masses.
