WTTW at RSD tomorrow (7.15.10)

Brian (TuffEnuff) asked me to post this here... WTTW is going to film at RSD tomorrow, weather permitting. This would be for the show Chicago Tonight. If you are interested in more info, please post...

I think the focus would be getting street racing off of the street. My friend Pete M. was the first guy to talk to the WTTW guy a while back and the producer was interested in the scene...

RSD is held at GLD, and this one is Tomorrow. Maybe Tom could post a little more info.

I had planned to go, but now with rain looking promising I'm planning otherwise.

You guys missed it. It was gorgeous out there last night. High 70's, not too humid, low car count. I had a blast.

Took 10 cars from an 06 Yamaha R6 and lost

Took 6 and the hit from an SRT-4 Neon that beat the R6, and won

Went heads up with a Heads/Cam etc 30th T/A and put bus lengths on him out of the hole.

It's a completely different event than it was 5 years ago, a lot more relaxed now and less single digit race cars.

They showed a .4 second shot of my Camaro. Navy blue with a black 4 inch cowl hood.

Seemed like a good report and they didn't over-dramatize or embellish anything like I would've expected...
