Thats right folks set your DVR's and get your popcorn ready! The FREEDOMBIRD will be on the PowerBlock on Spike TV, May 8th and 9th!!

Ty, myself, and Joe from BMR spent yesterday at RTM Studios taping with Courtney Hansen for a upcoming airing of the PowerBlock on Spike!
It was a fun filled day with tons of things to look at and drool over. We got to hang out on set with all the TV personalities and have a great time exploring their countless inventory of parts and cars. Then the "bird" was rolled onto the PowerBlock set with the beautiful Courtney Hansen at its side. Ty and I were interviewed about the car, where we got to highlight the "build thrash," the SEMA experience, and high light our sponsors!

The PowerBlock crew are second to none, they made it extremely comfortable and we had a blast! Plus you can't beat hanging out with Courtney!!
Ty and I made the return trip back home last night while Joe from BMR took the "Bird" and headed north for St. Charles, IL for the Race and Performance Expo March 6-7 and then onto Indy for the Hot Rod and Restoration Show March 11-13.

The PowerBlock was truly a great experience! The car, the sponsors and the story are going to reach an estimated 96.5 million viewers when the show airs along with pictures, build sheet, and updates on the PowerBlockTV.com website! Once again I thank you all for what you've done for the project, and your continued support!

Very cool guys, that is an awesome build! My office is over there by the RTM Building, every now and then you can hear them shreddin' some tires...pretty cool. I was able to meet Courtney Hansen one time, and got my pic with her...she is pretty cool.
