“ Ya Gotta know where to Go….The FUN Starts Here….”

I am about having fun with my hot rod... It’s about HAVING FUN Gearheads….

Going to your local car show or cruise in, again in my opinion, is about going to have fun with other gearheads, check out some other cool cars, enjoy a day in our hobby.

I have shared this every year at some point in car show season. This is the first time I have shared this, this early in the car show season though.

If it’s the $15.00 plastic trophy you are after, go hit a yard sale of flea market and buy a used one and change the plaque info and you are happy.

Reason I am, is some of the “noise” (being nice here) I have already heard and been part of, in some discussions I have been in.

Probably going to get some hate mail...that's ok. Some of you may unsubscribe now...that ok, too.

No different than any of you, I like to be recognized for my efforts. We all do. BUT...if you are going to your local car show or even a National Event EXPECTING TO WIN A TROPHY, you are going for the wrong reason...in my opinion.

I am about having fun with my hot rod...smiles over the miles. The best trophy I get every time I drive my car, is all the THUMBS UP I get from people. I get more of these trophy's in one day than most will get chasing the $15.00 trophy over a lifetime....

If you want a points based judging of your car against others, sign up for the ISCA and got to one of their events.

Live It Fully Everyday

Corvette Grand Sport will be the 2019 Indy 500 pace car This is the 30th Chevy pace car! When the 103rd running of the Indianapolis 500 takes place next month, a Chevrolet Corvette will once again be handling pace car duties. It'll mark the 16th time a Corvette has had the honor and 30th overall for Chevrolet of leading the 33 car field to the green flag for "The Greatest Spectacle in Racing." This year's race will be led specifically by a 2019 Corvette Grand Sport that just may be the sweet spot in the line up with Z06 chassis hardware, and the 460-horsepower LT1 V8 from the base Stingray. In pace car trim it will have an eight-speed automatic and wear a Long Beach Red Metallic paint job with dual silver stripes. In addition to the shiny Tintcoat, the Grand Sport wears a unique Indy 500 graphics package. Corvette fanatics remember the Grand Sport is essentially a Z06 without the extra power. While not as powerful as last year's ZR1, the Grand Sport's performance chops should be sufficient for the task at hand with a 0-to-60 mph time of 3.6 seconds. Its 6.2-liter LT1 V8 makes 460 horsepower and 465 lb-ft of torque, and is paired with an eight-speed automatic transmission. The Magnetic Ride Control suspension and Brembo carbon ceramic brakes and 19-inch front and 20-inch rear wheels, should help it get through the turns at a respectable clip helped by the aerodynamic bits from the Z06. The aero is nothing in comparison the open-wheel racers that will be riding behind the Grand Sport, but 1.2 g cornering capabilities are far from shabby for a street car. To see a Chevy Corvette pace the Indy 500 field once again you can make the pilgrimage to Indianapolis Motor Speedway and see it in person on May 26th this year. If a trip to Indiana isn't in the cards, however, make sure catch it on TV or you can listen to it on satellite radio. This marks the third year in a row a 'Vette will pace the race.

Rat Trap Racing 50th Anniversary World Tour Continues Down Under Franklin, TN — Inaugurated in 2016 to celebrate the creation of Rat Trap, one of drag racing’s most iconic AA/Fuel Altereds, the 50th Anniversary World Tour continues as the team celebrates the infamous Fuel Altered Tours of 1969-’72. “We’ve had a fantastic time racing all across the U.S. and in Canada, England, Germany, and New Zealand.” Said team owner/driver Ron Hope. “However, I’m thrilled to announce that Rat Trap will be making it’s first ever trip to Sydney, Australia, to participate in the inaugural World Fuel Altered Challenge (WFAC).” Rat Trap will be joined in Australia by Randy Bradford’s Fiat, Hughie Callen’s High Heaven and Rich Guasco’s Pure Hell. They will compete against four cars from Australia’s Aeroflow Nitro Hotrods and two New Zealanders. The American Team: • Randy Bradford’s Fiat • Ron Hope’s Rat Trap • Rich Guasco’s Pure Hell driven by Brian Hope • Hughie Callen’s High Heaven driven Shawn Callen The Australian Aeroflow Nitro Hotrods: • Agro driven by Paul Messineo • Berzerk driven by Justin Walsh • Chucky’s Toy driven by Rick Gauci • Pyscho driven by Shane Olive The New Zealand Racers: • Nightmare driven by Dave Gould • Spooky driven by Morice McMillin Morice McMillin, organizer of the Aeroflow team and coordinator of the event said, “As a kid, I used to dream of watching Pure Hell race, to think that I will be racing against that car just seems like a dream. I can’t wait.” “This is a terrific opportunity to continue celebrating the history of Rat Trap Racing.” Added Hope. “And to give even more overseas fans the opportunity to experience the excitement of nitro-powered Fuel Altered racing is what drives us to continue, and we’re grateful to all our sponsors for helping make this tour possible.” About Rat Trap Racing Rat Trap Racing, Franklin, TN., is an internationally renowned racing team competing in both land speed and drag racing. Headed by Ron Hope and his son Brian, the team is a family affair that sees Ron’s wife Dianne and granddaughter Victoria all taking turns piloting the racecars along with other family members and friends. In addition, crew chief Brian can often be found behind the wheel of Rich Guasco’s Pure Hell Fuel Altered.
