#475, "Trying to get Horsepowertv to cover the shootout."




          

Here is an email I sent to horsepowertv:


This isn't really an idea for an entire show, but I've noticed that quite often at the end of shows there will be an on-location shoot at a car show. Usually a club of owners of specific vehicles. Well, there are a lot of fans of HorsepowerTV in the import community (since most of the import shows are geared at ricers and punks, not true mechanics and tuners). This August I will be attending, along with a few hundred others, a gathering of DSM vehicles (Mitsubishi Eclipse, Eagle Talon, Plymouth Laser, Mitsubishi Galants, Dodge Stealth, Mitsubishi 3000gt's, Mitsu. Starion, Dodge Conquest) There will be shows, drag racing, and all kinds of fun. The event is held August 13-15 (Friday, Saturday, and Sunday) in Norwalk, Ohio at the Norwalk Raceway Park.

It may be a good event to cover for HorsepowerTV and keep your import tuner audience elevated.

that would be a great thing to have at the shootout, and since the 2GNT crowd would be the ones who started it, then we could be featured more in their footage.

Just sent this to Nads at SuperStreet...


Hey Nads,

I wasn't sure if I should send this to you, Rickdaddy, or JDMWong, but seeing as you are know for your boobies and the people I'm wanting to tell you about like boobies too, I figured you'd be the one to contact.

August 13-15 is the Annual DSM Shootout in Norwalk, Ohio. Yes, it's a long trip from sunny SoCal, but if a dozen of us in Phoenix, Arizona can make the drive, you can sure put some intern on a plane and fly them out to cover the shenannigains. So far, I know of more than 50 non-turbo cars planning on attending. We will be caravanning across the country to this thing to meet up there in Norwalk. I feel that this event could be something fresh and different for Super Street to cover, compared to the typical Honda with a swap or the rare track attack Skyline. This event will likely have a couple hundred Eclipses, Talons, Lasers, EVOs, 3000GTs and even Conquests there. It would be a cool thing to see in the magazine. Other people have notified other magazines about this event, but I have been down with Super Street for a few years now and I know that you guys are the innovators. If you don't cover this event, noone else will, because we all know they have to follow in the Super Street shadow.

Thank you for your time, and I look forward to meeting you at the Shootout or seeing the (as yet non-existant) Super Street Project 2GNT in the caravan from Phoenix this August.

Next I will track down Brent Rau and Big Len, to see if they might make it out. Nothing like a pro to hand out some whoop ass imo.

EDIT:
Just sent an email to ExtremeMotorsports, sponsor of Brent Rau and Sean Glazer. It says Glazer runs a Talon, but I'm not sure. Either way, it would be cool if they made it - even if they didn't run!

fuck that, we dont need any publicity imo. if they want to cover the single greatest event the world has ever known (the dsm shootouts) then let them, i'd much rather it just be the dsm brotherhood its always been

nah dude...this could be good for alot of people...not only making the event bigger, but getting companies and people (and their cars) the breaks they need/want to make it big. Whether it be show or racing, publicity = teh shiznit.

It isn't a couple hundred, it is a couple thousand. The Shootout is growing every year.
