Hey ReddRocket!
You were there???? I thought that I was the only one who goes to these events!!!! I just got home!! Had a wonderful time!!!
We took the video camera, and got some great cars!! Met lots of people that I've met throughout the years (Magazine editors and Pontiac/SEMA people)!
Met Rick Jenson from High Performance Pontiac, and chatted with him for about a half hour!! Nice guy!!
I also met Christopher Titus!!! This guy rocks!!!! We took lots of pictures together!! He also has a new program that he signed. It will be an hour action/comedy, and he will get some hot rods in it!! This guy is a real down to earth guy!! Goofy, but nice!! Lisa's in love!!! Ha!! He told me that he has a Viper GTS, and a Lightning, to name a few. He wants to sell the Lightning.
Chated with Linda Vaughn for quite awhile again! She is nice! It's great to see her still involved with the auto industry.
I also chatted with some high up Pontiac/Chevy people, about the cars coming out. Sounds like some good, fast cars! The GTO will be there next year, with everybody and their mother, fixing them up!! But the Greater Los Angeles Auto Show will be the first showing! LA is a place that Pontiac wants to show it bad!! You gotta hear what they are planning for the Daytona 500 in 2004!! I may buy airline tickets and tickets to the race!!

See ya all later,

George

LS1 Cavalier, here's the deal on this bad boy. This is strictly a prototype and will never go into production. I didn’t believe the sign so I reached under the dash to pop the hood but the handle was removed. Luckily my colleague had one of those pocket pliers tool things and I was able to get enough of the hood cable with the pliers to pop it open. I literally ran over and lifted the hood and sure enough someone shoehorned an LS1 in this little car. It wasn’t a pretty installation; the firewall was dented and scratched. The valve covers were about an inch away from the strut towers and the radiator was maybe a ¼ inch from the crank pulley. Just as I was going to snap a shot of the engine bay a f*@king rep walked over and slammed the hood “If we wanted the public to see the engine we would have the hood open” well **** you I replied. Rest assured I had this clown on my nut sack for the duration of my General Motors experience. Sorry guys I tried

Thats O.k

You laid it in them.. We know plenty of people that see more production plants more times than they have an attiude and blink his eyes. So he can suck a Goats Nut sack That Sob. Thanks for all the picuteres Mike I enjoyed them all. I at first thought it was a 2003 cav with a base ls1. This really shows your true colors for Gm Mike. Wtg..

You’re in luck! I just released my three DVD collection, Swollen Angel (a sensual documentary on the day to day life of a big man with some amazing panty shots), Maximum Thrust (running on the beach and killer trampoline shots), and my favorite Big Boys in Bondage (not for the faint of heart, this is pure rockum sockum action wrapped in a leather and lace package). The collection comes in a box set complete with an autographed helix style **** ring from my “Big man with a little surprise” series. I want to make sure everyone gets through all three movies before any “release”. My production company “Pulse Productions” is always looking for new and exciting talent so don’t be shy apply! $19.95 puts this toe curling, *** clinching, up on the ***** of your feet trio on your door step. Don’t wait call now! 1-800-BOYTOYS, operators are standing by.

Autographed fruit basket shots are now available!

Nice pics Mike!

That 383/425hp looks tempting but I'm sticking with the Fast Burn 350/LT4 Hot Cam engine for 430hp.

And 28" inch wheels now available. Sheesh, when will it end? 30+" wheels with rubber bands wrapped around them? hehe

Hi all!
Just got back from Las Vegas, where I was at the SEMA 2002 Show!! Had a super time!!!
Let's see.........for starters, I ran into Jeff Beitzel, the ex-owner of PAS, where our wonderful 20th Anniversary Turbo Trans ams were built for Pontiac!
He's a great guy! I chatted with him for about 20 minutes! He was interested in hearing that I had car #231! He talked awhile about the company (PAS), and abit of what he's doing now. Too bad I didn't bring anything (20th TTA items) for him to sign! I just was standing there at the Press Conference, and I saw him! So, I had to go up and introduce myself! I got a picture of him and me (along with some other shots that I took there at the show). Go to:
http://photos.yahoo.com/warbirdta1
After you get there, click on SEMA 2002.
I also met Miss Arizona, who is simply stunning!!! Some other beautiful women as well, and I even met Kyle Petty!!! These people were simply great beyond belief!!
Then, on top of all that, I also met Christopher Titus!!! From TV's Titus! Man, I tell ya, this guy rocks!!!! He is alittle more crazy than me!!!! Too bad his program was taken off the air! But not to worry! He said he signed up for a new 1 hour program that will be an action comedy! He also said that he will get some hot rods into it!! He talked with me about what cars he owns!
I also did some major chatting with some Pontiac guys, as well as Pontiac Enthusiast magzine guys (Jim Wangers was one-I know him from way back-he even owns a 20th TTA himself!!!), and I even ran into Rick Jenson from High Performance Pontiac magazine!
Got lots of info on the new GTO, and upcoming NASCAR Daytona 500! I can't post it, and I'm not about to talk about it, but I can/will talk about it off the message boards. Now I want to be there at the Daytona 500 next year!!!!!!
There were lots of great cars, guys, and yes, girls there!!!! I ate some great food (thanks to Mopar Garage for the food!!) there, and at the casinos! Heck, what little time I had, I even won $40.00!! Ha!!
I came home with the car loaded again this year!! Now, I can't wait again for next year!!!

Just letting you all know,

George

I've worked this show since 94 and it is decent if you're a spectator but since I have to work it is hell. I passed on it this year so I could go to the Performance Racing Industry show @ Indy in Dec. Much better IMHO. true racing stuff there and less trinkets & trash like car deordorizers and fuzzy dice
