Quick thinking by Marlin. During the post race interview, after finishing second, supply the media with the wrong name. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...mlins/haha.gif

Spike TV "AutoRox" 90 min special - January 25, 2005

On January 25th, Spike TV will be airing a 90 minute special program that's basically a televised car show for invited participant cars of various years/makes/models. The Inciner8or [LV's '57 Chevy convertible with 8 turbos] and the HRSS-454 were invited, with the Inciner8or being the feature car. The show is filming all this week inside the huge Barker Hangar, at the Santa Monica Airport, CA. The Inciner8or will be center stage during the 90 minute show, except to shuttle celebs from back stage to center stage throughout the show. Jay Leno called LV yesterday to arrange a private viewing of both cars this week at the set, so I wonder if they'll both be based in Las Vegas after the show, or not. More info about the show at: www.autorox.com/rsc/

Here is a shot of both cars yesterday at the Butler Hangar on the ramp of the Santa Monica Airport...

General question....what is Leno realy like? Is he really a car guy who would get in and get his hands dirty or is he a guy who has money and that is the only reason he is in the car hobby? In other words, if he were poor....would he be like me and be doing a "resto" in his three car shop?

Re: sYc members not in print, but on TV!!!!
 

I met Jay last year and got a couple hour tour of his shop. He is a absolute car nut before anything else. Very nice guy that is not talking down to you at all. He is very hands on with his stuff and probably knows more overall car info than most of us. His shop is about 3 miles from the studio. I got the impression that he is at the shop daily doing car stuff and then heads to the studio in the afternoon for the show taping. He was explaining the carb to me on my Yale motorcycle. Think nothing but nice things about Jay. One of the better car guys out there.

Re: sYc members not in print, but on TV!!!!
 

He had said in an interview that he wants to retire in 5 yrs so that he could spend more time on his car hobby.

Jay is a car guys that I would like to meet someday. https://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/imag...lins/beers.gif
