Optima Ultimate Street Car Invitational invite, Carl Casanova

[XcYZ]

OPTIMA has given Lateral-g.net an open invite to use to invite 1 member to participate.

This is a fantastic event and I'd like to thank Jimi and Cam for allowing this opportunity for our community. :thumbsup:



Carl Casanova (CarlC) has been selected to comete in this year's OUSCI.

[Rick D]

WOW thats awsome :thumbsup: I vote for Billys (72novadriver) Nova. Unless he is aready going!!

[ironworks]

I vote for todd. But billy's nova would be awesome.

[96z28ss]

I would give Todd (vegas69) the chance or Track Junky the chance.
Both have been to events and weren't invited.

[Rick D]

Todd's Camaro would be cool also.

[XcYZ]

Todd is at the top of my list. Anyone have his cell phone number?

[skatinjay27]

naw... todds to slow!!!!;)

[Van B]

If I had a way to get mine out there I would say I was interested.

[6spdcamaro]

Billy got an invite.
I vote for Todd or track junky

[ccracin]

Another vote for Todd!

[Blake Foster]

WOW thats awsome :thumbsup: I vote for Billys (72novadriver) Nova. Unless he is aready going!!

Billy is already in.

[Cris@JCG]

I vote for Todd Or Track Junky

[LowchevyII]

since billy is already in i say todd. i wanna see that camaro rip some laps up:thumbsup:

[coolwelder62]

I think Gaetano( track junky) would give everyone at optima the most fit's.He's flat super fast.His car is as close to a stock suspension as it gets.It would be nice to see a car like Gaetano's run against full after market chassis parts that everyone else will be running.We might find out that some of us just wasted a bunch of money.I know Todd want's to go real bad.Scott you always make real good choices,So pick the best person who YOU think will make the best showing.Gaetano,Todd,:thumbsup: :thumbsup:

[cmraman]

I vote for VanBuren. His Camaro rocks. I think it would do well.

[pokey64]

Payback

[Reckley]

I'd like to see the mule out there.

[Stuart Adams]

I'd like to see the mule out there.

Oh yeah, that would be awesome.

Probably not going to happen, Scott anyone you pick will be excellent I'm sure. :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

[Van B]

I vote for VanBuren. His Camaro rocks. I think it would do well.

Thanks Rob. You can tell I don't hang with the "cool" kids, huh?

[XcYZ]

Would you be interested, Jeff? I know it's a long ways from us here in the Midwest and a very short notice.

I second.. I mean fifth the vote for Todd

[Track Junky]

Thanks to the few that gave me a vote. Todd's been around here alot longer then me and certainly deserves the vote.

I will say though, my main reason for wanting to go is to find the ultimate suspension set up. The only way to do that is to run my stock(except for upper control arms) but tuned set up against skilled guys like Finch, Stielow, Tucker, Parrott(whom I dont think was invited but should have been to display his suspension set up) and Todd with his G bar set up.

On another note, even if I was invited this year I couldn't afford to go. I spent too much money testing and tuning the car this year and the wife has cut me off.

A shout out to my sponser "Dream Speed Motors". They made me 8 seconds faster at Buttonwillow and 6 seconds(could have been faster, only got one session in on a cold track)at Thunderhill.

[Ron in SoCal]

Scott - PM'd you Todd's number...

[slck6t9]

Another vote for Todd, but what about your car Scott?

[Van B]

Honestly it is probably a lot more do able for somebody who lives in the west, although if we could find Violetto a 2 car trailer...

[Flash68]

Very cool of the Optima team to do this... thinking it may be to build up some goodwill after the late notice-no spectator ruling perhaps. Either way, kudos to them for allowing this entry.

That being said, I better vote for Todd since I am staying at his house! :woot: :D

I would love to see Gaetano mix it up with those big boys too - I think he and Todd would give em all fits.

[Rybar]

Another vote for Todd, I've been wanting to see his car run in this event for a while. He really deserves it. I think its a no brainer since he's local to the event. :thumbsup:

Honorable mention to Gaetano if his budget would allow him. :yes:

How about Blake's Nova from Speedtech??

[Vegas69]

Wow guys, I knew I had some great buddies on Lat-G but I never expected this kind of support. :cheers: :cheers:

P.S. Dave, you and Doug are roughing it in my Hot Rod garage.

[Tom.A]

Yep, Todd was my first thought when I saw the thread. As Rybar said it just seems like a no brainer on such short notice.
Van B, I also think you would have also been a good choice because your car is great and you are always respectful member here of which I am sure factor's in Scott choice:thumbsup: I wished more members could run their cars at this event because honestly I have went the last two years and some of the cars selected IMO are just show car seat fillers that don't really belong. Todd, Van and Track Junky's type of cars are what I want to see...oh wait that's right we can't seem them anymore as spectators:mad:

[DFRESH]

Payback gets my vote--especially since I am staying with him----evidently in the garage--but still.

Top this off with Dave, Todd and I going to dinner with Greg---man, what else could be better? (Todd or Greg paying)

Todd, just let me go shotgun for at least one lap on the Road course--Jimi won't mind.

Doug

[War]

So, who is this Todd guy anyway?

[fleetus macmullitz]

Really shouldn't have an event without at least one ZL-1. :cool:

[Flash68]

Wow guys, I knew I had some great buddies on Lat-G but I never expected this kind of support. :cheers: :cheers:

P.S. Dave, you and Doug are roughing it in my Hot Rod garage.

Can I change my vote to Doug on 22's? :woot:

Since the hot rod garage must have the obligatory beer fridge and the playboy channel, I'll be just fine. :D

[Matt@BOS]

Todd. :thumbsup:
Because maybe this opportunity will allow him to stop talking about Optima whenever it is even vaguely appropriate to do so.

Matt

[Vince@Meanstreets]

My vote goes to Track Junky just because its a total grass roots down to earth build and I feel it deserves to be there...win or lose. But I seriously doubt they would let him in if he had the chance.


Vince

[MarkM66]

Van B. :thumbsup:

Ship your car if you have to!

[DOOM]

So, who is this Todd guy anyway?

X2 :D :lateral:

[cdushane]

I vote for me ;) ..............Ok, that was a joke!

Payback all the way!!! :unibrow:

[Bow Tie 67]

Track Junky is out: would love to see him whoop some aftermarket A$$.

Jeff, your car and skills would surely put some hurt on the competition, logistics are not in your favor.

Todd, lets see how she stacks up against Rupp, Finch and Tucker. :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

[ProdigyCustoms]

For obvious reasons i would vote for Todd but I am not. Track Junky gets my vote.

I will explain later Todd!

[chr2002ca]

My vote's for Todd also. Give 'em hell Todd. :thumbsup:

[James OLC]

How about Fin... nevermind

Todd gets my vote!

[Track Junky]

For obvious reasons i would vote for Todd but I am not. Track Junky gets my vote.

I will explain later Todd!

Frank, I am just as anxious to put this ultimate suspension set up to rest as you are. All of you that have followed my threads on the PT forum know that my ultimate goal has been to see how a stock suspension measures up and to see which set up is going to put me down. I have posted 3 track days at Buttinwillow this year trying to get Bad Penny there but unfortunately Rupp had been busy with making changes.

Everybody keeps pounding me about it being the driver, but get a bunch of skilled drivers together with different set ups and that makes it even keel in that respect. The only thing seperating us from there would be the suspension set ups.

Bottom line, I need proof of the best set up so that I know which direction to go with my car. I dont want to be spending hard earned money in the wrong direction.

[Cris@JCG]

Todd just got selected on Pro-Touring.com for the their entry in OUSCI ...

Track Junky should go!!!

[GregWeld]

Todd just got selected on Pro-Touring.com for the their entry in OUSCI ...

I'll kick in $200 for TJ's expenses.... come on guys... lets get this party started.

[Cris@JCG]

JCG will do 500.00 for TJ's expenses!!

I'll kick in $200 for TJ's expenses.... come on guys... lets get this party started.

[Vegas69]

Cris is correct. I'll be representing Larry and Pro-Touring.com. :thumbsup: Larry contacted me yesterday morning about representing him and I couldn't say yes fast enough. I spoke with Scott last night on the phone and explained the circumstances. I really appreciate all the nominations from you guys.:cheers:

This spot is available guys. Who wants it?

[Bryce]

I would like to see track junky as well. Let me know what I can do to make this happen! Also I will be going to SEMA so if you need a hand I am there!

[mfain]

You can mark me up for $300.00 to help defray Track Junky's expenses. I can't imagine a better shoot-out than Track Junky, Payback, and Bad Penny and the other "high end" cars on the same track under the same conditions.

Pappy

[GregWeld]

Okay -- you guys (CRIS) are pi**ing me off now! I'm in for $500 instead of my initial offer.... :woot:

Come on guys - even $50 helps out.... don't be shy.


(of course we don't know that Scott would pick him... but we can adjust as/if we need to)

[Jr]

Was Jake, of JRS, invited to the big show? If he was interested in driving all the way from back east, my vote would go to him.

[CRCRFT78]

I would just love to watch this live. Track Junky gets my vote now that Todd is in.

[Tom.A]

Was Jake, of JRS, invited to the big show? If he was interested in driving all the way from back east, my vote would go to him.

I forgot about him. Out of sight out of mind I guess, but yes he would be a great pick that could likely compete for the top spot. Hopefully he is already invited

[Tom.A]

Congrats Todd on the invite.....you two timing bastard on the other side:P

[Track Junky]

Wow!! Talk about car enthusiasts that want to see a knock down, drag out, battle of the muscle cars. Way to represent guys!!!

Unfortunately I am about 25k into the car this year starting the build just last May so you can see why the wife wants to cut me off. Hell, I thought I was going to be living in my car trailor for awhile.

In addition, aside from travel, food, and lodging expenses I still would need the correct tread wear tires which I am afraid would put me over the top.

I cant even begin to describe the extent you guys will go to see some hot track action and how that makes me feel.

YOU GUYS ARE BAD ASS!! :lateral: :cheers:

[Track Junky]

Was Jake, of JRS, invited to the big show? If he was interested in driving all the way from back east, my vote would go to him.

I agree, if Jake wasn't picked he was over looked. I'd love to see how his suspension set up compares.

[GregWeld]

Okay -- I want to save my $500 and help Cris out at the same time


SO --- I'm switching my vote to:

Jackass

According to the rules, Charlie would need to substantially change the appearance of Jackass to get a re-entry. Since Track Junky is out, I like the idea of The Mule. It would be interesting to see how an older build compares to the new kids on the block. Whoever steps up has to really want it in my opinion. :unibrow:

[James OLC]

Have not talked to him...
Have not asked him...
But

How about Carl C?

[Ron in SoCal]

If I recall correctly, he'd need to bring an extra set of tires....:lol:

I think we should let Tyler in and he can drive my car.His blue hair & my blue paint would look real good out there.I think he would be fast.

This would rule. Have helmet. Will drive.

Scott, perhaps you might consult with an experienced judge before you render a verdict...

[skatinjay27]

Tylerunless the car won last year or is a vendor car it can compete again

[Track Junky]

What size of tires do you need????

275/40 17's

[Track Junky]

Yeah... but what if DriverzInc came in and sponsored a set of Nitto NT05s? I'm down to help out.... :lateral:

Then I'd have to do some quick math, travel from El Dorado Hills back and forth, plus food and lodging. I'm thinking I might be able to squeak by with $1500 off the top of my head.

[skatinjay27]

come on gaestano- thats $1300 for expenses plus a set of tires from jon! just call the wife over to the computer and show her this thread!:D im sure she'll ok the rest.

[Track Junky]

OK, looks like I have tires, a place to put the car, and a place to sleep. I just need to get the vote and the Optima guys approval.

If this happens whats the preferred way to get the funds to me?

Maybe that would motivate him to finish 50/50.

[tellyv]

Ask and you shall recieve, I do have a buddy that would borrow me his.
So my vote is for VanBuren so I don't have to pay for all of the gas:thumbsup:

[slenning]

Another vote for Jeff (Van B) , but Track Junky would be a great choice also.

Todd, really glad to see you got an invite. Give em hell!!!

I would love to throw my name in for consideration but while I think my Camaro is capable, my driving skills are less than.:rolleyes: I did take the three day driving school at Spring Mountain last year so I am familiar with the track.

[Track Junky]

OK guy's, my head is spinning. I'm having a hard time with the idea of excepting cash from you guys. I think I should gracefully bow out.

Chris at JCG and Jon at Drvers Inc, I would be proud to represent you guys on my car if the tire offer is still good. My front fenders have room along with a possible windshield banner. Any size just as long as it looks good. I will be hitting all of the NASA Time Trial events next season which should give you guys some decent exposure. I will also work at winning my way into Optima for next year.

In addition, the guys at DreamSpeedMotors also feel that we would need more time to tune with the 200 tread wear tires.

Pappy Fain, Greg Weld, and 5280/4, you guys are solid and I cant tell you how much I appreciate the cash offer and I'm not to proud to except the offer but it just doesn't feel right.

[mfain]

Gaetano,

Don't look at the cash as a gift, it is an investment in the spirit of competition. I want to see how the various suspension systems compare on the road course. I don't expect you to do as well with the cones -- not your thing -- and the really big brake cars will perform well in the braking competition, but its the road course times I am really interested in. You are the old school "missing link" with a reputation for speed. It wouldn't be right for you not to be represented. Good luck with a selection.

Yes having the Mule out there would be very cool. Kinda like when Big Red was there the first year. :yes:

Lots of activity since I last looked before bed last night. Telly V.'s trailer offer makes the numbers work for me, I think. Must be my quiet and reserved nature that is keeping guys from throwing money at me. :lol:

[Vegas69]

I've tried to get in this deal every year and I finally made it. I can't believe nobody wants to seize this once in a lifetime opportunity. Your car gets to go to SEMA, Road Racing, Autocross, 0-60-0, and potentially on TV. You have the chance to be crowned the baddest street car in the USA. Can I run for both sites? :unibrow:

Gaetano, It's a once in a life time opp.I won the good guy's autox at kc last year and got an invite. Wasn't going to go, I thought I had no business there with all the big buck guy's until Kyle Tucker talked me in to going.It's the most fun you can have w/your pant's on. And probly w/o them also.Only wish I would have left a day early so I could have made the SEMA show.If you have the opp.to go,don't pass it up.You will reget it for ever.GO-GO-GO-GO. Scott Mock.

[GregWeld]

Here's the deal guys ---- it's SCOTTS decision who goes and represents HIS website... so no matter how much we beg or coerce and jibe each other.... it's his choice.

I can think of about half a dozen people I'd personally love to see get the opportunity... But some people aren't prepared -- some might not have the time off work (boy am I glad I don't have THAT problem! :rofl: ) -- some might not have the desire -- and some might not have the finances.

I wrote Scott -- that if he picks someone that does not have the finances -- My offer is good for that person as well i.e., my offer is not limited to Track Junky I threw it out there because HE said his wife was cutting him off (in more ways than one probably!). They don't have to make public announcement about it - or make a big deal out of it etc... I just personally would be happy to help someone - one of us out if he or she needs it in order to step up to this fabulous opportunity. :cheers:

[monza]

Somebody should be all over this. It's a serious intense hot rod experience, great people, amazing event- Pro Touring overload! Then there is Sema, if you have never been it will blow you away. Even with mechanical failure I had a blast at the Optima. Contact Scott represent!! He'll pick a Bad Ass car for sure.

The chance to lay a smack down on Bad Penny, come on!!! ha ha :cheers:

[The WidowMaker]

greg, you have all the tools in the world and the heart to go with them. thats an awesome opportunity for someone, and im glad to be part of a community with guys like you.

[Matt@BOS]

Can I run for both sites? :unibrow:

I think I'm starting to see your angle. Wouldn't that be like running as two separate entries, giving you more of an opportunity to win, no?

Seriously though, congrats on the invite Todd!

I'd like to see Gaetano run. I'm not sure how Optima would feel about it, but if the community can get him in, that would be great. As Scott said, it is probably a once in a lifetime experience, take advantage of it. Gaetano, you might not be able to get in again, and if you're more concerned about learning than winning the whole thing you shouldn't hesitate to go.

I've had so many socal people from the community offer to help get my car to sema, I feel like I need to pay if forward. I'd happily donate to the cause getting Gaetano, or anyone else there as well.

and you and i saw first hand how that turns out cough(one lap camaro 2008)cough
lol sorry james.:P

[Vegas69]

Who said nobody wants it?

Up until Carl, I haven't seen anybody commit. I just read the feature on your car. Very nice..:thumbsup:

Carl would definitely be a great pick as well. He's a pro touring pioneer and has a well sorted car.

Thanks Todd. I just saw the pics of your car on PT.com and although I have seen it before, I can't remember seeing it with the black/brushed wheels. Looks bad ass. If all goes well, I'll be able to check it out in person in a few weeks.

[Ron in SoCal]

Although I'm cool w Scott making a choice, I suggest he take maybe the top three guys that throw their hat in the ring and put 'em up on a new thread/poll and give the members 24 hours to vote.

Between Carl, Van and Gae this is a 'can't miss' as one will get selected and our community will represent.

[ProdigyCustoms]

Sounds like we are pushing Gatenao into it. Sounds like Jeff is in for it? And Carl is made it clear he has time and money.

Now Scott has to flip a coin on that one. Both cars are run and run hard, both would have a grat chance of doing well. Glad my name is not Scott right now!

It's true AJ but I don't regret it at all.

Besides... We'll try to show what we are capable of this year... Albeit as an exhibition competitor.

Carl is good to go on all fronts and will surprise a lot of people if given the chance!

[Track Junky]

Ok guys, after hours of thought....the truth is I have been waiting for the opportunity to run up against the best of the best for a long time and your right, the opportunity may never come around again.

We all know how hard Finch, Tucker, Stielow, etc are going to run and I sure is hell ain't no slouch. You guys want to see a smack down, drag out, muscle car challenge and If I'm voted in I intend on givin' it my all...........I'm in!!!

Sounds like we are pushing Gatenao into it. Sounds like Jeff is in for it? And Carl is made it clear he has time and money.

Now Scott has to flip a coin on that one. Both cars are run and run hard, both would have a grat chance of doing well. Glad my name is not Scott right now!

spot on, spot on...;)
yeah both van and carls cars are kick ass! hell i even loved vans car with that big azz hood ! but i do think there needs to be some fair way of deciding who gets it and not by a vote. a coin sounds good to me just dont use a stinking penny!!!:D

btw- i dont think it was a popularity vote Van when it came to gaestano going it was just that whole idea of a stock style suspension car running with a experienced that know that specific car very well. i know that was my reasoning for want to see him attend and it seemed like others also.

All great options mentioned, but I'd love to see Gaetano run too. He will squeeze the very most out of that stockish car he has and that will be impressive no matter what.

Good luck to whomever gets it!

[Bow Tie 67]

I hope Cam and Jimmy see this:

Please let all three in...... please, please, pretty please.

All three want to represent and have expressed interest.

Gatenao : has commited with help!! :thumbsup:

Jeff: Has a great car and experience and teaming up with Violetto will help both with cost. :thumbsup:

Carl: What can I say, he is lateral-g / pro-touring :thumbsup:

Two extra cars, there has to be space.......................( after all less spectators more space )

[clill]

I would love to see the Mule there, but it's not in the cards. I even talked to Charley about it. :D


Hopefully we'll have a clearer picture in the next day or two on who might be representing our community. :thumbsup:

:lateral:

Maybe the Mule next year. I thought I was invited with Jackass since I didn't get to compete with it last year but when no clear answer came and I had already made arrangements to have Jackass at SEMA I went a different route. I'll be running Jackass on the adjacent track at Spring Mountain. I'll be there, just not competing. Getting lots of laps in though.:cheers:

[DOOM]

Here's the deal guys ---- it's SCOTTS decision who goes and represents HIS website... so no matter how much we beg or coerce and jibe each other.... it's his choice.

I can think of about half a dozen people I'd personally love to see get the opportunity... But some people aren't prepared -- some might not have the time off work (boy am I glad I don't have THAT problem! :rofl: ) -- some might not have the desire -- and some might not have the finances.

I wrote Scott -- that if he picks someone that does not have the finances -- My offer is good for that person as well i.e., my offer is not limited to Track Junky I threw it out there because HE said his wife was cutting him off (in more ways than one probably!). They don't have to make public announcement about it - or make a big deal out of it etc... I just personally would be happy to help someone - one of us out if he or she needs it in order to step up to this fabulous opportunity. :cheers:

Greg let me know how your going to work this I'll be glad to help out . Shoot me a PM!!

[Cris@JCG]

Greg- My offer stands the same..



that if he picks someone that does not have the finances -- My offer is good for that person as well i.e., my offer is not just limited to Track Junky

[sevillaz28]

Hi all. New guy here. Bounced over from the other PT site after I heard Gaetano had a possible invite to Optima.

Where else will you see a 69 camaro running with stock lower arms and very little suspension mods whip Butt at such a big event. He proves it on the track and I would like to see him go all out at Optima.

I'm just a guy, with a little opinion, just had to get that out there.

I say Track Junky.



I can spare 25 bucks to whoever gets the invite and needs it.

[Spiffav8]

Count me in for a few bucks to whom ever represents LG.

Just a thought but maybe we could have t-shirts printed up for this and sell them to help raise money. I've got a credit with Tavis, the guy that did the LG design and would be willing to put it towards the cause.

Whatever it takes! :thumbsup:

[CarlC]

Gents,

I appreciate the show of support from all of you to all three of us. It can be awkward in these situations, but no matter what happens I'm happy to have been considered. Whomever goes I see it as a win-win since I dig anyone who is willing to flog their pride-and-joy on-track.

Do you plan on doing high speed runs on the 160?

Not sure if anybody suggested but how about Ron Shwarz's (57hemicuda on this site) 66 Mustang (Muttstang)

The car is badass and would be killer at the event. :thumbsup:

Just a side note. The car has to be up to the specs that they require for the event. Check and make sure first before committing, my .02.

Very cool Jon.

But this part of your sig is even cooler. :lol:

and an acquaintance of Dr. Doug Renner

[nvr2fst]

My vote goes towards Jeff. Hes got a great set up and experienced. Maybe Im a little bias:D , but Id like to see it go to a local fanatic here in WI. or more or less the midwest. Plus it would be a great oppurtunity for him and Telly to hook up for the tour down there.

Either way its a tough call towards representation for Lat G considering the contenders play a part on both Lat G and Pro touring. Question is which one is more dedicated to this site.

[XcYZ]

After a lot of discussions and deliberations, Jeff Van Buren will be taking the invite.

Edit... CarlC will be taking Jeff's spot as Jeff has elected to not proceed.

[Tom.A]

Congrats Jeff:thumbsup: Go get them.

Go Jeff!

Oh Yea!

Jeff and Telly let me know if I can help out in any way prior to departure. First stop out on the road should be my place! :cheers:

[Ron in SoCal]

Congrats Jeff!

From a member perspective even though it was a tough decision for you Scott, I think it was a no lose proposition. One gets to go, he's a member of Lat G, and we're all rooting for him. More importantly, those that were not chosen have something to shoot for next year!

Now if I could only get a spectator invite...:unibrow:

[Track Junky]

Congradulations Jeff, it certainly went to the right person and to be honest I am relieved. I do have one thing to add.....all of you that decided you were going to put up cash or tires to help anybody that didn't have the finances is welcome to use my boat anytime you like. I have a 30' Regal and am 2 minutes from Folsom Lake and about an hour and a half from lake Tahoe. Take it on a family vacation to Tahoe for as long as you would like. Hell, it has all of the amenities including in door bathroom and stove top.

This is a great community here and I am proud to be a part of it!!:lateral: :cheers:

[Bow Tie 67]

Congrats Jeff, give them h*ll, if you need help with anything give me a call.

[Van B]

Thanks everybody and especially thanks to Scott for thinking enough of me and my car to choose me to represent Lateral-G. I have been PM ing and talking to Scott since yesterday morning and have had a lot of deep thought about whether to accept or to have him move on to Carl or Gaetano. Either would have done him proud. I only hope that I can fill the shoes.

I need to get my head into the autocross and speed stop challenge. At Road America (my home track) I was able to place 5th in the road course behind Kyle Tucker, Ryan Matthews, Brian Finch and Jeff Schwartz. Stielow, Finch, Tucker and I am sure numerous others that I am not thinking of, will be tough. It is an honor just to be selected.

Todd, I hope I don't need the tools or shop space, but I will be sure to take you up on it if I do.

The 2nd toughest part of the decision was how to get the car out there. Telly V has access to a two car trailer and can haul mine with his, but it is not enclosed. I am still open to suggestions regarding enclosed transport from Wisconsin or the Chicago area to and from Vegas as I do not have the time available to me to trailer it out and back myself. If anyone has any reasonably priced options for me, please PM me.

Spending the money on transport, hotel, airfare, etc. was a tough sale with the wife. She is being a good sport, but I am sure I am going to hear about if for three weeks before I go. I am sure I will have to do a bunch of a$$ kissing up until and after I am back.

Thanks again, and I will try not to disappoint! :cheers:

[Rybar]

Congrats Jeff! Go represent Lat-G for us. Great choice Scott :thumbsup:

[Vince@Meanstreets]

Great job Scott, I know that was a tough decision.


Jeff, congrats, I know you will go out there and rip it up. Put some rubber down for us....wait, that sounds weird but you know what I mean.

Jeff, just before you got picked I had finally sold it to the wife. Even with the backing of other members she still wasn't buying it because I had to take a week off work.

It finally boiled down to letting her buy a tread mill and a Disneyland vacation for the family, LOL.

Good luck with the wife thing I know what your going through and secondly good luck on the transport.:thumbsup:

[ccracin]

Good Luck Jeff. The best part about this community is there was no wrong answer here. I would have had no issue supporting any of the guys mentioned for the invite. The members here that are willing to sponsor the Lateral-G representative should be applauded!:hail: I spent a lot of years fielding oval track stock cars and could not have done it without great sponsors. In today's economy they are very hard to come by. You guys are top notch.

Scott, you should be very proud of what you have started here! I have never been involved in anything that has this many people with a common interest that come together for each other so often. Again :hail: !

Keep us posted on the progress Jeff. We're pulling for yah!

To make sure your car will pass tech I'll need to take a ride in the passenger seat- you know, just to make sure it's 'safe'.

See you out there Hollywood.

Doug

[CarlC]

Well Alrighty Then!

Jeff, I wish things would have worked out for you to attend. No blowing smoke, just a sincere belief that it would have been great for you to represent everyone here. I'll do my best to make as good a showing as you would have.

The car is off to Magnuson on Monday to have a tune done. In true hot-rodder fashion I put a new TVS blower on the car right after Jeff accepted. She's running well but Drew will work his magic to fix the small bugs and make her purr.

I can use some help/advice on how best to handle a few logistical matters.

For those that are attending OUSCI with a car, how are you handling the logistics for Friday? I'm late into the game and am looking for some help on how to move vehicles (I'm trailering to L.V.) to Pahrump. If anyone is making a similar tow vehicle move on Friday from L.V. to Pahrump I could really use a ride.

Is there any place to store a car trailer in Pahrump during SEMA?

Anyone have a line on a place to stay around Pahrump? I have no plans, and rooms are short, for Friday or Saturday night.

Finally, I have not heard back from FM3 yet but is there a place at SEMA for competitors to display their cars this year? Last year they were displayed in the area in the far corner of the Hot Rod Alley. For those that displayed last year, when did you need to be in Vegas?

Thanks for the support guys. It means a lot to know that there are others in my corner willing to help.

I've only done Karyoke once. My boss and I were in a Korean Karyoke bar with customers in Maui about 10 years ago. As you can imagine, we were the minority. After plenty of liquid libations, he and I sang "Play That Funky Music White Boy." We laughed our butts off as everyone in the bar cheered us on.

Hey, the Dos Equis guy called me last night. I was honored by his call until he said "I've heard of this Dr. Rennert fellow. Can he come to my private SEMA party?" I felt so used.

[RPM HOTRODS]

Carl, I should have room in my trailer but I believe we have to drive the cars from SEMA to Pahramp. But I am willing to give you a hand in anyway I can. Just let me know what you need exactly. Thanks Curt

[Ron in SoCal]

Congrats Carl!!!

Show 'em how we do it in SoCal...:thumbsup:

If you need trailer storage, I've got a place in Henderson about 10 mins from the strip.

[Vegas69]

Hey Carl,
I have room at my place for your trailer if needed. Go read the official rules, your car will need to be at SEMA on Monday I believe and a road ralley is part of the event after Sema. The Silverton would be a perfect place to stay if you can't find a spot in Pahrump. I bet you could find a place to park the trailer as well.

[CarlC]

I wasn't too clear in my original message, so let's see if I can get my thoughts across.

Right now it looks like I will trailer the car to arrive LV early Monday. So, I need to be able to drop the car off the trailer and get it into the Coral on Monday (thanks Todd, I forgot about that paragraph.) Todd, are you planning on driving your car from your house to SEMA on Monday? If so, you need to get back home. Perhaps I can follow you in my truck/trailer, we put both cars in the building, and then we ride in the truck/trailer back to your house. Or, I drop the car off the trailer at your place, we drive/drop at SEMA, and get ride back to your place? Let me know your thoughts. I'll PM you my cell number if you would like to discuss.

Since I'm driving the car from SEMA to Pahrump I need to figure a way to get my truck/trailer to Pahrump on Friday, MAYBE. This is where the logistics get a bit sticky depending upon where I stay. Let's see how things flow over the next day or two before getting neck-deep.

Curt, are you staying in Pahrump on Friday/Saturday? If so, and you have the room, I may take you up on storing the car in your trailer at night. If it's at all a problem, just say so. I do not want to be in the way.

[Rybar]

[CarlC]

Thanks for the phone call Doug. I really appreciate it.

Thank you to everyone for the encouragement. It's going to be fun! :thumbsup:

Blake, I'm with you on the departure time. Two hours to go five miles from SEMA to the freeway is a good test, eh?

[GregWeld]

Carl --

First - congratulations!

Second -- True story. Some buddies and I were doing the Spring Mountain driving lessons... and upon checking into the Best Western one buddy asks the petrified geriatric desk clerk -- What's the major industry in Pahrump besides casinos? Her prompt response "hookers".

I thought I was going to pee my pants. She was dead serious.

[Van B]

I spent a lot of time soul searching over the weekend and came to the conclusion that it did not make a lot of sense for me to spend the money it would have taken to make the event. My wife was not in favor either. She stresses when I travel anyway and suffers from migraines and has been having a lot of trouble with them lately. Add to that a two year old running around demanding constant attention. Needless to say, timing just was not right, especially with fairly short notice.

I fully expected to get a lot of crap from you guys for turning down a once in a lifetime opportunity. Thanks to everyone for not rubbing it in. Thanks also to Scott for first offering me the opportunity and for his graciousness when I had to back out.

I wish I were a west coast guy right now. Best of luck to Carl. Scott made a great choice. At least you have the right car. A red Camaro and it's not a 69! :thumbsup:
