Scottsdale Appearance at ADESA

Add caption

January is filled with the collectable car auctions every year in Scottsdale, Arizona. This year was no different as the collective events sold in excess of $200 million in vehicles. As part of the events parties and sales my friends at ADESA invited me and some others to make an appearance at the annual  ADESA Legendary Sales Week.

 With me making the appearance were Larry Dixon the 3X Top Fuel World Champion NHRA drag racer, Courtney Hansen from Spike TV and not pictured Barry Meguire from Car Crazy TV.

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!
