Derek Posted December 12, 2009 Share Posted December 12, 2009 Went down to PRI in Orlando on Friday. Part business part pleasure. Called a couple of friends and they said Meet us at the Grassroots booth we're talking to Pete Brock. So I head over there and on a whim I pull up a picture of my manifold on my phone and showed it to him. He was pretty impressed. He asked me for a business card and wrote "cool L6 intake" on the back and put it in his pocket. Now that made my day. Derek Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Derek That is VERY COOL, Derek. I like Pete Brock and would even have him sign my forehead. PRI, for those that don't know, is the Performance Racing Industry show, similar to SEMA, but racing related. A few of my instructors are there and I wish I was too You are lucky to be there!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Davy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnc Posted December 12, 2009 Share Posted December 12, 2009 Be careful in your business dealing with Pete Brock - he learned from Carroll Shelby. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZWOLF Posted December 13, 2009 Share Posted December 13, 2009 I met Henrik ( http://www.cardomain.com/ride/645045 ) at the PRI show. He came over and was checking out ZWOLF. We were standing around talking and Pete Brock showed up with Gail. I wasn't sure who it was but he kept circling the car so I finally said Hi. We chatted for at least an hour about the WOLF and Henrik's build. Brock is wanting to get a huge get together for the Mitty in May ( http://grassrootsmotorsports.com/events/mitty-2010/ ). More news on that later....but keep your schedule open. It's gonna be fun! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
