something to do this weekend:

If you are interested in attending and checking out what happens behind the
scenes during a videotaping session, please contact Reg Harris at >>>

Firehawks as possible to use as backdrops at the school and at Race Rock. Greg

Chevrolet in nearby Henderson, Nevada (one of our largest and best Camaro
dealers) has graciously agreed to appear in the video as well.
The taping at Bragg-Smith is scheduled from 10:00 am to 2:00 pm on Saturday,
January 6. The school is located at 3601 South Highway 160 (Blue Diamond Hwy)

The Race Rock taping session takes place later that day from 4:00 pm until 7:30
pm -- Race Rock is located at 495 Fremont Street. Their phone number is

allow us to use your SS or Firehawk at Bragg-Smith, SLP will provide Lunch.
So, stop by and say hello to Reg, Rupert Bragg-Smith, Greg, and yours truly as
we put Camaros through the paces both on and off the track!
I'm sorry for the late notice (things come together very quickly at
times!).....but please confirm your attendance to REG HARRIS BY 6:00 PM PACIFIC

I just called Steve.....he said that if I hop in the SS now and start driving.....I just might make it.
I don't think I could make the run w/out a co-pilot though.

Darn that would be fun.

Now they do it. Why not in November when we were there??

Posted by HotWheelSS aka HTWLSS (Member # 117) on :

yeah, that's what I want to know!

Posted by Steve_Winters (Member # 128) on :

I couldn't go in November because of the cost.

This one looks like a very economical weekend. I have relatives in Vegas who'd be delighted with some company...

I was there, what a day! I'll be doing a trip report, but that will take a few days and I'll have to post it in parts, so many fabulous things to report. Thanks to Reg Harris, Jim Ferron, Scott Settlemire, and Bobby Moore for a great day. A special thanks to Reg and his mother for a great evening. I've never been treated so well.

The first draft of the trip report is complete and sent to Reg Harris for his approval.

Hopefully I can post it tomorrow. I took my film to Costco Sunday evening. I'll check tonight to see if it is in yet. If not, I won't be able to check until Wednesday night, I have bowling on Tuesdays. Unfortuantely, I don't have a scanner, so I will mail them to Cody Kraus. He can scan them and post them for everyoneto see.
