Just kidding!

They are all great photos!

You’re out at almost every event on the west coast that has a few cones laid out. We see you out at all the Good Guys events and now out at the Optima OUSCI event outside of Vegas. What’s your favorite Good Guys venue? How did the Optima event compare? I heard that you beat Camaro Performers Magazines’ Steven Rupp with his famous “Bad Penny” ’68 Camaro on the autocross. That must have been a nice feather in your cap, since nobody would ever suspect a truck with some easy to install suspension could beat a Camaro with Corvette front suspension and state of the art custom rear suspension…especially a Camaro that has been so dialed in by a team of specialists. Congratulations!
Thanks!! In response to which events I like the most....well honestly I like all of them!! But if I had to choose goodguys would be my favorite by far, a.) there are more of them b.) have a truck class c.) the people at these events are awesome.

Now don't get me wrong, I loved OUSCI, this is where the big boys play. We got an opportunity to run with some of the finest pieces of metal on the planet. And unknowingly found out once we got there we were quite competitive. Being able to finish in the top half of the field and have the fastest truck there was awesome!! Bad penny....yes that felt pretty good to put that hatch mark on my belt! Next year should be even more fun now that we are proudly part of the H-team!! Hopefully we can put the 69 in the winners circle a few times in 2011 !!
