Barrett-Jackson Auction Scottsdale, AZ Promoting Car Warriors on SPEED

A quick interview with Ralph to promote Car Warriors.
I spent the week in Arizona promoting Car Warriors on SPEED, it premiers February 24th. Barrett-Jackson is an event I have been attending for over twenty years. Been both a buyer and a seller, my company has consulted the event on marketing, branding and merchandising.

The event rocks and is packed with excitement every year and 2012 did not disappoint.  Here is a look at the week.





April Rose, Justin Bell and me in the SPEED Social Garage
I did spend time in the SPEED Social Garage where I Tweeted, answered questions and met April Rose and Justin Bell from SPEED. It was fantastic to talk with fans in real time as SPEED added promos for the show live during the Barrett-Jackson coverage.

Just before I crossed the block in this bad boy






This is an ultra rare Ford Thunderbolt with an even more rare Mickey Thompson Ford HEMI motor. I was asked by the owner to take it across the block since I was involved in the restoration years earlier.









Just crossed the block with my friend Bob Bauder, sold for $250k



Bob and I can smile while the car is being bid on because no worries, not our sale. I have sold my own and it can be really nerve- racking!








Why the smile, Larry Dixon's first trip to Barrett-Jackson.



I hung out all week with my good friend Larry Dixon the 3X NHRA Top Fuel Champion. There are some exciting things coming for this guy!
Also, in our gang was Steve Johnson the NHRA Pro-Stock motorcycle champion, he is Mr. Personality.






The legends and Mike Russo (ADESA) myself and Alan Taylor.



We made an appearance at ADESA Auctions in Chandler, Arizona on Wednesday. I was thrilled to be asked to be on the bill with Barry Meguire, Larry Dixon, Steve Johnson and Parnelli Jones.

ADESA was great to us everyone was super nice!
