“ Ya Gotta know where to Go….The FUN Starts Here….”
“hot rodders and car people who dug deep “
Gearheads & Hot Rodders are some of the most giving people...
This year Arties Party raised over $57,000.00 for the charity. AWESOME!!! But again as I started this weeks article, it was the gearheads that opened their wallets and purses to help support the cause with purchase of one of kind artwork and other collectible items created over the weekend. Artie and his many friends put the event together but it’s the hot rodders and car people who dug deep to support the event along with some very generous sponsors like REZ, Racing Junk, TUB O’ Towels and many others. Remember that NITRO CACKLING I talked about...DONATED and it ain’t cheap! Our friends at the CHICAGO BRUSH MASTERS do the same thing every March at the Chicago World of Wheels event, raising tens of thousands of $$ for the RONALD MCDONALD House of Chicago. Again all this happens because hot rodders open their wallets and their hearts too. Got to tell you, I am damn proud to be part of a group of people who give selflessly of themselves.
I have wrote some about this in the past, but it bears talking about again. When you get to page 9 in this issue, DO NOT PASS by it (I hope you are looking at every page or your missing some good stuff!). This week we are highlighting some cool news from the recent Syracuse Nationals Event. The Syracuse Nationals is one of, if not the biggest gearhead event in the Northeast-East Coast Region all year long. The event like many others, has other “events” taking place within the show, during the event run. Every year for many years now, Artie’s Party is a HUGE part of the show. Started years ago and still handling everything about “Arties Party” is the renowned and world famous stripper and letterer Art Schilling and his wife Linda. An idea put together to bring automotive artists, stripers and many others to help raise $$ for the Ronald McDonald House of Central NY. Rocky Pironne & Al Liebmann join in the fun with the FRANTIC FORD Nitro Funny Car doing NITRO CACKLES all weekend long and auction off seat time during the cackle to raise $$ for ARTIE’s PARTY.

Utah Residents Rip Up Fragile Bonneville Salt Crust Save The Salt Once Again Bringing Illegal Activity to the Attention of BLM Officials Last week a photo surfaced of two Utah residents, Cameron Ramage and Skyler Pittman, who took credit for driving recklessly on the Bonneville Salt Flats in a highly modified Ford Crown Victoria. They had made multiple hard-circling maneuvers, breaking through the thin salt crust and plowing ruts into its surface. The photo was posted on BF Goodrich’s national website and Facebook pages igniting hundreds of negative responses from the U.S. and international land speed racing community. It initially appeared as though BF Goodrich (BFG) was endorsing the destructive conduct. Not so. When BFG corporate staff became aware of the situation, they took immediate steps to apologize on BFG social media platforms, then remove the posting and contact Save the Salt. BFG discovered that the two Utah residents pictured in the car had supplied the photo to BFG’s social media contractor, which then uploaded the image innocently, thinking the action shot showing company product was a publicity opportunity. “We applaud BF Goodrich’s quick response in removing the posting once it became aware of the irresponsible act,” said Dennis Sullivan, President of the Utah Salt Flats Racing Association. “BF Goodrich has long ties to Bonneville and its tires have helped racers set land speed records over many decades. The company values this unique venue and has joined the racing community in efforts to restore the salt flats. To assist in the effort, the company is making a $5,000 donation to the Save the Salt Foundation.” The photo which documents damage to the salt crust was posted on Mr. Pittman’s Facebook page on September 4, 2018. This is not the first time the two Utah residents have been to Bonneville. At least two other photos show the same vehicle. One in November 2016 shows the vehicle along with a similar car in standing water when driving on the salt flats is prohibited and the crust is especially vulnerable to damage. Save the Salt representatives have notified officials at the U.S. Bureau of Land Management (BLM) of the incident and asked the agency to investigate further. Bonneville’s custodian, the BLM posts warnings about limited access to the salt flats but the directives are not always obeyed. Another incident in 2016 drew the ire of the land speed racing community and the BLM. A small group of young Canadians called “High on Life” posted a Facebook video of men skiing behind an RV on water covering the salt flats. The video received enormous negative attention and federal officials were able to tie the group to illegal off-road activity on other federal lands as well. Several members were fined and banned from American public lands for five years. In both cases, Save The Salt was responsible for bringing this illegal activity to the attention of the BLM officials. “The racing community urges the BLM to pursue violations of rules and regulations governing the Bonneville Salt Flats," said Save the Salt Foundation Vice Chairman Tom Burkland. “Enforcement will help send a message where signs and other warnings have proven to be insufficient mechanisms. The public must respect this environmental jewel.” 8
This Is How You Throw A Party! Even in 90+ degree heat there is no better place to be at each year.... Artie's Party Pinstripers Charity Auction presented by PPG Automotive Refinishers and 1 SHOT at the Syracuse Nationals. A gathering of 65 best friends and great artists from around the world who participated to help raise over $57,000 dollars for the Ronald McDonald House of CNY. If you never seen the work of these talented artists, you will be amazed. Thank you, Linda and Artie, for all that you have done for RMH and this event. I want to thank a few of our FRANTIC FORD NITRO FUNNY CAR sponsors Drink Rez, Tub O' Towels, CRC Industries, POR-15, Inc. and Lucas Oil for helping supply door prizes to the artists and Gasoline ALLEY Nostalgia Race Car Display contestants.. Join us for the party in 2020...It’s going to Be even better! - Al Liebmann
