Hot Rodders of Tomorrow

Hot Rodders of Tomorrow

   There is an expressed concern in the hot rod hobbies and cycle clubs that we are “aging” out; we are getting older and not recruiting younger “gear heads”. There is a parallel concern in the automotive and motorcycle industries that it seems harder to recruit experienced mechanics; those that can figure out and fix problems, not just replace parts!   A good mechanic must know a lot about how complex parts of the cars of cycles work together.…

Greetings to all

 I am a new member and would like to introduce myself and my vehicle to everyone. First, I would like to say that I am proud to be welcomed to your "World Of Wheels".

My Ride Rule

That to me is a bad way to acquire viewers.  There were a lot of people that wasn't aware of the show, and me being the president of a car club told a lot of people about the show and they were happy to know that I was one of the chosen ones, but that didn't happen even though I did get a response stating I was chosen and would be filming Jan. 14-29.  No matter what I still have the 22 trophies I won last year regardless.
