Mopars at the Strip

[az69rtcharger]

I was just wondering if anyone from the group is going to Mopars at the Strip in Vegas?

[69_500]

I will be there shooting video. Also will have a space in the manufactuers midway selling out DVD's. I won't be taking the 500 though.

[zstalker]

I'll be there...we've got a group from mopars of utah (http://www.moparsofutah.org) going down thursday morning

[70charginglizard]

Anyone staying at Excalibur?

I was down there last weekend for the Chrysler 400 and forgot to cash out one of my gambling ticket there for 38 bucks. 

Anyone?

[ChargerHound69]

I will be there.  I am headed there Friday night.  Should be a fun time.

[Chryco Psycho]

I Will be there

Spring Fling in LA for me, no lost wages this year. 

[Steve P.]

Sadly, I will miss it this year. My back has been killing me. I had to cancel.. 

[Tom_440]

I'll be the guy at MATS working hard to keep his 2 year old son from touching everyone elses' car!

[vegasmike]

steve,  I cant believe I'm losing my bar buddy this year....damn you

[az69rtcharger]

Thats Great that a few of you are going, I will be there friday morning, I wish my 69 R/T was done but it wont be done until Aug. so I will be taking my Dakota and might have it in the show. If anyone would like to meet let me know and maybe we could arrange something.
I'm staying at the Luxor and will have my laptop and will be checking in. Hope to meet anyone

[69_500]

So is anyone from this board taking their Charger? If so I'd love to add it to the video I'll be shooting out there. I mean I haven't had the chance to shoot too many of the members of this board and their cars yet on any of our DVD's.

[Ponch ®]

I had planned on going, but its not very practical right now. I'd like to buy Chryco a beer though.

[69_500]

Hey Ponch, do you know of Vainglory is going this year or not? I saw him there last year, didn't see you there though. did you go?

[Ponch ®]

Hey Ponch, do you know of Vainglory is going this year or not? I saw him there last year, didn't see you there though. did you go?

No, I didn't get to go last year either. At this point, contrary to my last post on this thread, there is a slight - very, very slight - possibility that I may go after all.

The last time I talked to Vain he said he probably won't make it either because of other commitments.

Seriously, the only reason I'd want to go would be to meet some of you guys - otherwise, most of those same cars show up at Spring Fling 2 weeks later.

[69_500]

well if you decide to attend the show, make sure to stop by the booth and introduce yourself.

[Ponch ®]

well if you decide to attend the show, make sure to stop by the booth and introduce yourself.

will do!

I really want to go, but the rub is that now its not up to me.

[Steve P.]

well if you decide to attend the show, make sure to stop by the booth and introduce yourself.

What is your booth all about??  Not all of us know...


Would be great if you could get everyone together to get a big pic. for the site.

Chryco may need some make up..       Just kidding Neil.....

[70sixpkrt]

My flight leaves tomorrow morning at 11:30am and will be drinking beers by 1:30. . I am not bringing my Charger due to tranny problems. I am staying at The Mirage.

[69_500]

Ah well I'll have a booth selling DVD's.

D.E.L. Productions is the name of the company. We will probably have DVD's available at 2 booths actually. One for just my company and one in conjunction with TEAM RACING and restoration shop.

[zstalker]

Here are a few pics from the event...
first, a shot from the top of the grandstands on saturday afternoon (swap meet was out-of-shot to the right)
a 1200HP twin-turbo viper than ran mid-high 9's @ about 150mph
a sweet custom '70 Bee (I'm a fan)
Kenny Wayne Shepherd's Extreme Lee
the new Challenger concept was there...very cool
two of the 17 Hemi Cuda convertible's (including the Motor Trent test car with the red interior) on the drag strip
...just a couple highlights

[zstalker]

(last two)

[69_500]

Ah in the photo you shot of the field you can barely make out my vendors space. I'm right in front of the Red tent reading TEAM Racing.

[zstalker]

right 'ere?

[rare69]

would love to go but cant, if one of you guys going would look for new 3.55 gears for a 742 case i would be forever greatfull.please let me know. thanks much!

[TheGhost]

For all you guys that did go, did any of you happen to get pics of this car?  It appears to be YY1, the same color as my car, and I've been beating my head in, trying to find a picture of that color in good condition.

[69_500]

I will go through my pictures and video here in the next few days/weeks and see what I have.

And yes, that is where I was located by the TEAM Racing/Restoration tent, I was out there shooting their promotional video.

[70charginglizard]

I see they had the concept challenger there. So what did you think of it? Wish I could have been there to see that in person and scream at Chrysler to not allow charger history to repeat itself on that thing.

[Steve P.]

ME TOO............  I sure hope it stays just the way it is now...

[41husk]

69 500,  What other shows do you shoot and sell videos at?  Do you go to Monster Mopar in StlLouis (Madison IL)?

[69_500]

Yes, I'll be at the Monster Mopar show in St. Louis again this year. We were there last year shooting. We will more than likely be shooting this year at the chrysler Classic in columbus Ohio. I know for sure we will be at Carlisle, and we will be at the Mopars at Indy show. Still waiting on word that we are allowed to shoot at the chrysler classic events. We have been denied access to the Mopar Nationals.

[Steve P.]

Come on guys. Where are all the pictures from the show?? Hell, I know more than a few of you went!! Let's see em'...........

[Chryco Psycho]

I was there , I located virtually no one except Rick K & Charger afficinado, I have 300 pix & I need to resize everyone idividually to post them here as every single one is too big 

[74Charger]

I have  a few.  I will try and post some.  But most of mine were not a digital camera.

[69_500]

Well I shot a few photo's of  the show, not nearly the 1,400 like I did last year. I didn't have the advantage of having another guy running a camera this year, so I had to do all the video taping for the company. So no chance to shoot photo's like I love to do.

Heres a little bit better pic for ya...

[TheGhost]

Thanks!  Really does look like YY1.

[74Charger]

Is this the color you are looking for?  This looks like the original paint job.

[TheGhost]

It looks similar, but I don't know the post 68 code for the color, or if they even had it after 68.
