Default American Street Car Series 2014

SEMA is over and now we are all planning for 2014. SEMA was a great time to see our sponsors and confirm sponsorship commitments for 2014. We are so happy to report that all but one of our 2013 sponsors will be returning for 2014. Even though we lost a long time supporter due to their new plans and series, we have another battery company coming aboard and we look forward to this new relationship. We also are very happy to announce that we picked up two other brand new sponsors that contacted us during SEMA, so we feel we must be doing something right.
Now, on to the most asked questions of the week, when and where.
Our first event, our annual Run to the Coast will have a new venue. We are finally at the point that we pulled the trigger and rented FONTANA!! We are proud to make this announcement and so happy to have the new sponsors coming on board to make this possible.
We also will be back at Autobahn, working with Heidts at their annual event, May 30-June 1. This event was a great success in 2013, and will only be better in 2014. There is a very big announcement about this coming soon, but I will let Wallace and the Heidt's crew spill the beans. I can only say this, if you thought 2013 was fun.....HOLD ON!
We will be with our longest supporting company DSE returning to CMP for the second annual Detroit Speed Southern Slam. Again, for those that attended this year, you know how much fun this event is, both on and OFF the track. Get your campers ready and your game on, it will be a blast as usual.
Run to Music City will happen again and will have a new flavor. We will run under the lights two nights in a row at the famed Nashville Speedway. We had a ball there this year, and it is a no brainer for us to return in 2014.
Another huge announcement we nailed down at SEMA was the addition of the Jet Hot VIR event we will be doing in Sept. Anyone that has ever had the chance to run at VIR knows why this will be a do not miss event. Sadly, this is the same weekend we have traditionally done RTTHs so we are going to have to move RTTHs to a different weekend. 2014 will mark the 10TH RTTHs, so we plan to blow it out in the mountains to celebrate where it all began.
We are working on a possible event at Pikes Peak raceway, just to touch you guys in the middle of the country. More on that as the plans progress.
I can promise you there are other things in the works, including a new alliance that will be a game changer. We are working on an end of the year event of our own, and all I can share right now is it will be something you will not want to miss and certainly be a bucket list item that I have only dreamed of and now it looks like it will become a reality.
We appreciate the support we have received from participants and sponsors over the years and look forward to continuing doing what we do, have fun with friends, and play with our hotrods. Stay tuned, more great news coming and we look forward to seeing you on the road in 2014!!!

We so want to go there and love the place. Those guys are willing to work with us to get something going there. We just need commitments that you guys will attend and support it. The location is tough, but once there all that fades away. More on this one soon.
