      OPTIMA Ultimate Street Car to air on SPEED

      A reminder to all:

      optima Invitational on TV.

      The program will air nationally on SPEED on January 30 at 11:00 a.m. ET and again on January 31 at 4:00 p.m. ET. This never before seen footage will cover several of the intense vehicle builds in the days leading up to the competition, driver and vehicle appearances at the Specialty Equipment Manufacturing Association (SEMA) trade show and focus on all of the event racing excitement, proving what these specialty vehicles and aftermarket products are capable of.

      I was out there for the event - it was awesome! I hope the show does it justice!!!

      There is nothing like being there, but I hope they captured some really good footage to show.

      DVR set and I can't wait!

      The optima Premiere was incredible and thanks to all that made this happen. And to Jimi Day and Cam Douglass for being such an asset and so supportive to our car addiction affliction.

      This show on SPEED will definitely capture the essence of the OUSCI and there's a lot of coverage for many of us Pro-Touring peeps and their cars.

      Cheers and thanks again, Jimi, et al,

      Thanks for the props Mary, it feels good to be doing something that, I hope in the end, makes a difference! That being said, I think when it's all over this weekend, you will turn out to be a real star of the show!!

      I can't believe I insulted my car so bad. And after all the good things it does for me ... note to self: must apologize with offerings of octane this weekend.

      Nah ... wouldn't worry about that, John. My 15 seconds of fame will be over and done with pretty quick.

      Was very surprised that my car got as much footage as it did. So many of the cars that were there are so uber-Pro Touring and of much better quality plus have gobs more horsepower than mine. Lots of cool interviews with the drivers and builders plus shows the foundation that many took to get themselves and their cars to the event.

      If you didn't get to attend OUSCI in person, this show will be the next best thing ...

      Well , I saw "part" of it .
      It's my Saturday to work here at the Dealership , and I snuck over into the customer lounge and caught the first 15 minutes or so.
      I can't wait to get home and see the hole thing .

      just saw the show....great coverage.

      nice to see some cars i'm actually familiar with (RTTH).

      for our Southern Super Heavy Shootouts in Atlanta we always had a "theme" and would put it on the t-shirts. (Size Does Matter.....)

      Bill's comment ranks right up there... "Trailers are for boats...we drive our cars"
