BIG PARTY IN FLINT MI FOR NEW SPEED SHOP!

Any HAMBers out there like fast cars? I work at a shop called BADLS1 Racing and we are having our Grand Opening Sat., Feb.7 11am to 4pm. Now there's nothing, and I mean nuthin'!, traditional about this place but it's full of fast cars and gonna be full of Hooter's chicks, wings, the smell of race gas & burnin' rubber and of course, HAMBers. Come and check ou 'The World's Fastest LS1' along with a few Mopars (1 of 113 1969 HEMI Chargers is included in this collection), a 625 hp dailey driver Z-06, 800 hp daily driver Trans Am and several other fast-ass cars. Oh yeah, my crappy and slow Flattie T-Bucket will be there, too. We are minutes from I-75. Take I-75 to I-475 South to Clio RD. (it's the first exit) and turn right on Clio. One mile south and your there!! Further plans for afterwards are in the planning stage right now so stay tuned for more. PS Let's overrun the place with traditional cars.

 

Let it be known that there will be no horseplay in the place, since I have been given the task of being security. This should be a good time and this place is gonna be state of the art. From what I hear, there is gonna be Hooters girls there too . I plan to bring my Sedan there for the grand opening, that is if it ever stops snowing. Hope to see as many of you there as possible, I will get with Pete and try to get some kind of activities going on after the shop closes.

Uh, if the shop closes!! This is gonna be fun!

 

I'll have to check with She who Must be Obeyed, but we'll be there!

Greg, you listening?

NO SHIT! Hey, I work over at VSI. We sell some stuff to you! Since you are a HAMBer, looks like we are going to have to give you some better discounts.

If you need banners or any giveaways, let me know... I'll see what I can do!

Sounds like a great time with my Flint area buds but I'm heading to Columbus, OH that weekend for the Autorama there. Bad timing Have fun, I'll be thinking about you guys.

 

Ha Ha Ha...Jay, you sure know how to flatter a GAY BITCH, dontcha???

(But you ain't ALWAYS gotta obey me!!!! )

Likely, I'll be there as well!!

 

i might maybe could make it...

 

For those of you heading NORTH on 75 (like from D-Town), you'll want 475 North to Clio Rd Exit... it's about 10 miles from the south end of 475, then you'll want to turn LEFT onto Clio Rd (headed back south)

I'll try to have my not so traditional but TOTALLY Michigan Gay Chevy II there, if it's runnin and the weather's ok!!!

 

I'm in and I'll bet the rest of the Torrid Torquers will be there too. Sounds cool. Part of my job is selling high performance EFI fuel pumps. Maybe I could write the trip off

 

Here are a couple of pics I took at the shop today. Keep in mind that the shop looks a little bare in some of these shots, because they are still finishing things up. I was unable to get any shots from the work area because the floor had a fresh coat of paint on it.

 

Dat thing got a Hemi?

 

This is a pic of the fastest LS1 powered car, 8.52 in the quarter.

 

And here is the hostess with the mostest!

 

OH DAMN, I almost forgot.... the General Lee is also there... the funny thing is, the owners last name is actually Duke.

 

WOW! That place is HUGE!!

I sent a little care package today. Out freebee stuff is really thin. I hope it helps a little.

(I need pics of the Hooters girls!!)

 

Hey 35, I'll send ya pics and wings for hookin a HAMBer up! This place is friggin huge. With our newly aquired 'engine room', we are a full 43,000 sq. ft. Oh yeah, the boss saw Dirt T's trash talk. The convertible hasn't been sprayed yet so it can maybe get past that Honda. So far, Jdubbya and his ol man wilol have their cars there, my T-bucket will be there (sans windshield, damn it's too cold), HRTH's Chevy II, hopefully Kritz's Ford, Fuel Pump's '37 (?), ant more HAMBers gonna help teach Mr. Duke what cool really is? BTW thanks Jdubbya for posting the pics.

 

pete,
Hatch, Donzie, fab and I will be there but unfortunately without our cars. My 37 is burried in the back of a big pole barn (along with hatch's roadster) over by Midland. I wish I had it out to bring. Last year at this time I drove it in a 6" of snow. It was a blast. We are gonna meet at Frank's Hot Rod shop and then come down. Can't wait to see the place.

 

I see no reason why I couldn't make it in my super-trad '93 Escort. Flint scares me, though, can I bring a friend?

 

Bring two friends; Smith & Wesson! All kidding aside, we have a full (literally, have ya seen Jdubbya?) security team. Although they are mostly for keeping the boss away from the Hooter's girls!

 

BTTT

 

Worked my butt off for 13 hrs. today preparing for this damn thing. It's really coming together better than anyone ever thought. Big thanks goes out to Jdubbya and Thirtyfive pickup for their help!!

 

Hardee's IS catering this gig, right???

 

Nah, I have seen the help at Hardee's, I don't think they would look too good in tight orange shorts, therefore we will leave it up to Hooters. I got the seat bolted back in, and fired up the sedan, it will be there for sure, even if I have to drive in the snow.

 

Ha Ha...there was ONE chick who worked there that I kinda liked...mighta been blinded by my craving for a killer cheeseburger...but she looked good to me at the time!!!

 

Why, did she look like a killer cheeseburger? :lol:

GOddAmiT!!! If I didn't have to open up the warehouse... I'd call in sick and show up! Responsibilities suck...

...although it is nice knowing that you have the keys to a 100,000 sq ft warehouse filled with $20,000,000 worth of speed parts and accessories!

 

Uhhh hey thirdyfive.....can I borrow your keys for a minute???

 

I took my sedan up to the shop today, along with the old mans 66 Buick, it may be in the 20's outside, but the streets are dry. They are putting the finishing touches on the place, and the shelves should be stocked by friday. From what I hear, a local shop will be bringing their funny car, and the place should be filled with cars on display. Flatheadpete had a setback in the "peter-beater" so it will not be in attendance, hopefully the problem will not be too major to fix. We will see you all there!
