“ Ya Gotta know where to Go….The FUN Starts Here….”

You only turn 49 once...

“LOO-Ville” When you say it, most every car person, hot rodder and gearhead head knows what you're talking about.

The NSRA Street Rod Nationals being held in Louisville Kentucky.

This is the weekend many many thousands of gearheads head to the “Derby City” for four plus days of hot rod fun.

While not the longest running events in the USA ( there are both indoor and some outdoor shows around longer), it is one that has stayed the test of time.

49 years ago, in about the middle of the country, the first Street Rod Nationals was held in Peoria IL. That gathering of like minded hot rodders who put the event together and who chose to attended the event as participants, at the time, did not know the significance of what this event would do.

This event jump started the hot rod movement and a whole industry

dedicated to hot rods and eventually a lot more.

Nobody knew for sure who or how many hot rodders would show up...but they did. They DROVE their hot rods from all over the USA to get to this 1st event of its kind.

Based on the response and participation, another event was planned and held. And then another and another and another!

This weekend #49 is being held in “LOO-Ville”!

Over the years, NSRA’s “BIG ONE” has been moved around before settling in for a long time in Louisville.

The location and facility works..nuff said.

NSRA has also changed with the times too. Change whether you like it or not is need to keep the event going. Look in the mirror, a lot of us are covered in gray. We need new blood!

HAPPY #49 NSRA and here’s to #50 too!

“the fun starts here”….

VINTAGE AIR INTRODUCES LOW PROFILE LS FRONT RUNNER SYSTEM Vintage Air, the leading manufacturer of complete performance air conditioning systems and billet accessory drive systems for classics, hot rods, muscle cars and trucks, has announced the release of its new Low Profile Front Runner system for LS engines with aftermarket or custom intake manifolds that utilize large diameter throttle bodies.

The modern Chevrolet small block V8 engine, most commonly known as the LS series, has been a staple within the GM lineup for over two decades. Thanks to the engine’s ease of modification and ability to be stuffed into just about any vehicle ever made, it has become one of the most popular engine platforms among performance enthusiasts. In response to the increasing demand for an LS accessory belt system with “extra clearance” to accommodate aftermarket intake manifolds and large-bore throttle bodies, Vintage Air has designed and introduced its new Low Profile Front Runner system.

These new low-profile kits are machined from the same high strength 6061-T6 billet aluminum used on all Vintage Air Front Runner kits. The kit features a redesigned main truss-bracket that provides the additional space required to run an aftermarket intake manifold and larger throttle body. The system also includes a new Edelbrock water pump with replaceable impeller cartridge and threaded heater hose outlets.

The system is available in four different finishes – “Bright,” “Bright and Chrome,” “Black” and “Black and Chrome.” The “Bright” finish (Part# 174027) features a machine finished bracket with polished compressor and alternator, chrome pulleys, and polished clutch and tensioner covers. The “Bright and Chrome” finish (Part# 174028) adds a chrome compressor, alternator and clutch and tensioner covers. The “Black” finish option (Part# 174029) features a black anodized bracket with natural finish compressor and alternator, black hardcoat pulleys, and black anodized clutch and tensioner covers while the “Black and Chrome” finish option (Part# 172030) adds chrome compressor and alternator.

Vintage Air Front Runner systems are proudly manufactured in the USA, include parts necessary for installation, and are backed by its standard warranty. For more information on the Vintage Air Low Profile LS Chevy Front Runner or any other product, visit www.vintageair.com or call (800) 862-6658.

Speeding Ticket Time!

The U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) is requesting reimbursement after Gwinnett County Sheriff Butch Conway used federal funds to purchase a Dodge Charger Hellcat SRT. The DOJ approved nearly $70,000 of asset forfeiture funds through an equitable sharing program to support the Sheriff’s Office, but according to a letter from the DOJ obtained by the Atlanta Journal Constitution the Charger Hellcat is considered an extravagant expenditure because it is not typically part of a law enforcement fleet. Per the letter, the Gwinnett County Sheriff’s Office is not eligible to request or receive any more asset forfeiture funds until the DOJ Is reimbursed for the Hellcat. A July 31 deadline was given.

A spokeswoman for the Sheriff’s Office told the Gwinnett Daily Post that, when the funds were approved, there was no indication that the new vehicle would be a concern until a local reporter brought the vehicle to attention of the DOJ. She also noted the vehicle will be used in Beat the Heat, a nonprofit where police officers and firefighters race vehicles. The Charger Hellcat is now the main photo on the county’s Beat the Heat http:// www.bthgwinnett.org/ index.html A county spokesman told the Atlanta Journal Constitution that the county would add review points in its purchasing process to ensure any assets purchased with federal funds meet guidelines.

Story—Photo’s by Jimmy B

For a lot of us gearheads, when we attend a national event, we tend to roll in early before the actual start day of the event.

After the hotel check in and scoping out of the area/town, we look for some hot rod fun to have with our rides. So it was at this years GOODGUYS Nashville Nationals.

Car guys and gals rolling into Music City headed over to the open house and kick off party being held again this year at ADVANCED PLATING. Steve Tracy and his team opened their doors and welcomed a whole lot of people. The parking lot our front was packed with all kinds of cool rides from all over the USA!

The ADVANCED PLATING team were 48

great hosts with good ol’ Tennessee barbeque and all the fixin’s too being served up.

Drinks, dessert, live music all evening and more were also on the menu. If you drove your cool car or truck in, you got a goodie bag filled with some great stuff!

To walk off that great serving of food, everyone had an opportunity to check out all area’s of the plating operation. If you have never seen how its done, it is quite cool to be able to do this. On top of seeing how chrome is done right, there were a number of great cars on display inside the shop including GREAT 8 winners from this years RIDLER Award competition.

Take a look at some of the cool cars and trucks that came out to this year Nashville Nationals Kickoff Party and then get ready to join in the fun at next’s years event!

When Hot Wheels launched the original “Sweet 16” die-cast cars in 1968, they were considered some of the most influential and legendary cars in automotive history.

And now, we’re hitting the road to find custom cars worthy of joining them as HOT WHEELS LEGENDS. One finalist from each of the 15 cities will join us at SEMA 2018 in Las Vegas, where one lucky winner will be immortalized as a Hot Wheels Legend

and transformed into a die-cast car sold around the world. Don’t miss this family friendly event! Enter your custom car into the competition or come witness the epic event! Each stop will include: Lifesize Hot Wheels Fleet of Cars, 2018 Camaro Hot Wheels Anniversary Edition cars, Photo Ops, Hot Wheels Kids Zone, Microsoft Forza Gaming Zone, Historical Die-Cast Display, Car & Pop Culture Influencers. More Info & Enter Your Car: http://hotwheels.com/legends Register your car: http://bit.ly/ HWLegendsRegistration Check out the official rules to enter your car: http:// bit.ly/2vnWSH7. What We're Looking For In A Car: - Authenticity: Have you ever seen a car and said, “That looks like a Hot Wheels?”

We’re looking for that “Hot Wheels-ness” that nails the amazing performance and outrageous design we’re known for. – Originality: We’ve made over 25,000 unique vehicle models in the past 50 years, so we’re looking for something with unique details that stands out from the rest. - Garage Spirit: It’s built, not bought, just like Hot Wheels. We’re looking to see some elbow grease that exemplifies the challenger spirit it took to build. Entries will be judged by five criteria (20 points per criteria = 100 points total). Even Legends play by the rules!
