OMG Lou left!
I just got done watching muscle car on the powerblock TV and Lou just anounced it was his last episode.
I would die to have that job. I wonder why he left. I liked him on the show, it seemed like he really knew his stuff.

Re: OMG Lou left!
Actually, he left the show a while ago (you saw a re-run). He left to have more time w/his family & pursue other opportunities.
The guy that was working w/him is the main 'host' now.

Re: OMG Lou left!
I would of enjoyed a bench racin' session w/him (and many of other board members I've had the pleasure to deal with), but NC is a ways from North TX.

Re: OMG Lou left!
He left Powerblock around September of '07. Talked with him about it at SEMA last year.
