| Saturday, May 22, 1999 at Nashville, TN | | Today is a special day. Being a Tennessee
corporation, it`s going to be nice when we cross
that line into our home state. The Power Tour has
been an incredible trip from San Bernardino, but
we`ve been away from home for a long time. We
were so fired up when we got to the state line,
that we had to stop for a photo. I really felt
like a tourist here.
 |
| The city of Nashville was really behind this
event, the blocked off a section of downtown and
gave it to us. We had cars and displays
everywhere, and we were surrounded by stores and
restaurants. The COMP Cams display was directly
in front of the NASCAR Cafe, and since we have an
unbelievable envolvement with the NASCAR teams,
and it was the day of ``The Winston`` race, it`s
like we were meant to be there.
 |
| OK, you`re going to have to stay with me on this
one. Check this out. It`s a firetruck, it`s a
truck with flames. It`s a fire truck with flames.
I think I`ve confused myslef.
 |
| I thought this was so cool that I asked fellow
Power Tourer Tom Scaman to put his car in our
dispaly today. This is a replica of the Porsche
that James Dean raced, and unfortuantely, was
killed in. This car was really impressive and
attracted a lot of attention. Tom had lots of
stories about the car and people`s reactions to
seeing the car.
 |
| I`d like to thank Dave Localio and all of the
other guys from the School of Automotive
Machinists in Houston, Texas. They made the
entire tour and helped us out with our display.
They worked like endentured servants or
something. This is one of the four cars thay had,
thanks guys.
