102 - Power and Speed - UAE Custom Show - DragWeeker Matt Blasco

Mike, Tom, and Tad in studio.


It seems Tad is much more of a dork than previously expected.
 Tad's car is delayed, in part because good ole Tad seems to
be quietly trying to a "build thread" on some Subaru forums and
won't proceed without... wait for it... pictures.  I can't
even imagine why, but this whole thing is gonna haunt em for a
while.


Tom was away last week at the UAE Custom show, and we don't think
everyone realizes  this area of the world is going car
crazy.  The Custom Show is getting bigger and bigger every
year.  Tom is involved with an engine building and tuning
challenge that is a big part of the show.  We realize not
everyone can get there, but if you are planning a trip it would
really be a cool place to go.


The DragWeeker theme continues this week with Matt Blasco.
 Matt is old school Chrysler guy, but with some very
interesting twists.  Matt is a IT guy by trade and he put
his skills to good use.  His 1973 Dart actually runs "CAN
bus" for the vehicle functions.  He runs a Mega Squirt
system, and uses it functions to the fullest. (listen to the fuel
pump system) Matt knows quite a few guys in this industry that
took interest in his car, and he is going to put us in touch with
some DragWeek loyal vendors.  Matt's a great guy, and we all
look forward to meeting him in person.    


Live again next week Monday night at 7:00 PM EST on Mixlr.com.
 Call in number 908 751 0211.  Live callers welcome,
and this will be the line for giveaways.
