Calling all the 1989 Turbo Trans Am owners and enthusiasts! Check out my thread over here...

Hey guys I haven't updated here in awhile so I figured I'd drop in and give some updates for this event.

I've got Muscle Car Review coming in to do pictures and do a write up on the event as well as High Performance Pontiac magazine coming up for pictures and magazine article! So hopefully those enthusiasts that can't make it will be able to read about it!

I've reached out to ever Pontiac club out there and started getting some calls from folks that don't even own a PC. Amazing how many TTA owners don't even own a PC out there! Those are the people I want to make sure I get the word out to. So if you know anyone who owns a 89 TTA please reach out and let them know about this event. While your out at car shows around the country just ask any TTA owner you may see if they are attending and at least know about the event.

Hoping to work a deal out with some of these publications to get the flier running in them shortly to further get the word out. This is going to be a once in a life time event making history for sure no matter how you slice it up. While this event is for just the 89 TTA's I'm sure there will be some GTA's floating around spectating at the event! It's all about keeping these cars out there and in the light! Thanks for your support guys helping make this event a piece of history!

Here is a universal flier for the event with some prices and such....

 

Jim, will the prototype Black and Red TTA's be there, as well as the convertibles....?

 

One of the prototype cars should be there. He has confirmed as attending. I have 2 of the convertibles down as attending and the only TTA cut away engine should be there as well! Toss that hardtop on a trailer and bring it on out Steve!

 

I would like to sign on and see what happens, good luck guys!

 

Getting closer!! I even bought a new GMC 2500HD truck to haul my TTA out there this year. Pretty bad when you buy a truck just to take your car to an event! lol
Make sure you guys tell all the TTA owners you run across out there during the next few months at the shows. The buzz is really in the air and we are hoping to hit over 100 TTA's at this event! It's going to be and make history for sure! Looks like Pontiac High Performance magazine will be there shooting the event as well. We are running a half page ad for the event in the next issue. An even like this for these cars will most likely never happen again. So come on out and be and make history!

 

You heard right! We have secured none other then Bill Owen to attend and speak at the TTA reunion! This is HUGE! I talked to Scott Kelly about Bill attending and Scott told me Bill can even fill in more gaps and voids about the history of the TTA's! I tried to get Bill back when I started planning the reunion and we just made it happen. Here is a short piece on Bill's experience with the TTA's....

1. His decision to put FWD Cylinder heads (3800) on RWD block so engine could fit in the TTA engine bay.

2. Stopped vibration in the car by using a torque arm bar (for lack of a better word) from rear axle housing to rear of transmission, and use a flex plate on the cross member to connect it all together.

3. Designed right side exhaust manifold (prototype will be displayed at our event).

4. Did most of the drag strip and dyno testing of virtually every TTA made.

5. His idea to use bigger fuel pump (which became reality).

6. His decision to use a cross-drilled crank, which they did.

Further information about Bill can be found here....

I must say guys. If you are an owner and or enthusiasts of these cars if you ever do anything in your life THIS is the event to be at. The amount of special guest we now have speaking at this event is just mind blowing. You will NEVER find these guys all together at another event like this. Don't miss out! Fly, Drive, do whatever you need to do to get to the reunion. Money can not buy what you'll learn at this event! The stories and parts you'll see and hear will make history. It's amazing how the buzz for this event has blown up. Don't be sorry you missed out after this history making event it over. We are just about to the one month count down! I can't wait!! See you in Ohio in a month!!

 

Head on out to the bookstores and pick up the latest edition of High Performance Pontiac before this rare copy sells out! Check out our bada$$ add for the event this month!! How cool is that! 17 days to go to make some history!!!
