Hi All,

We just posted event coverage of Mopars at the Strip on our site. Click here for the story (http://www.hotchkis.net/press_release.html?ID=10).

It was an awesome show, a little windy on Sunday but we were blown away by the knowledge and enthusiasm of the Mopar community. Even though this was a drag-racing oriented event, there were quite a few handling fans in attendance. The Viper club rented the road course down the street from the show, and we saw several dozen A, B and E-Body Chryslers setup for corner carving.

Here are a few highlights:

Our booth had the Mr. Norm's SuperCuda, a dropped Challenger R/T and the E-MAX '70 Challenger (set to make its Auto-X debut at GG Del Mar)

Steve Strope of Pure Vision did a live build in our booth with a stock '66 Coronet 440 4-Speed, that got our new TVS, plus Wilwood brakes, Bonspeed wheels and Pirelli tires. Full buildup tech story here. (http://www.hotchkis.net/press_release.html?ID=11)
