Nopi Atlanta

Alright guys... here's the deal. The DSLSJA had 10 cars at HIN Charlotte... we were a huge hit with the public. Had a lot of folks asking questions about the cars and the club... and we met several SS and IRL owners who were interested in the group.

The biggest thing of the night was that we spent about an hour talking with a rep. from GM Tuner Source. He was very impressed with the cars... and said that out of all the shows that he had been to we had the biggest group of Cobalts/Ions he'd ever seen.

So what it comes down to is this... the GM Tuner Source rep. said that right now GM is on the fence about whether or not to sponsor the NOPI show at Atlanta in September. If we can get a large enough group (like 30-40) that are committed to going to NOPI Atlanta GM will consider sponsoring the cars by paying our entry fee and possibly putting us in their VIP area to showcase what GM tuner cars can do.

This event is open to any Cobalt/Ion... not just the SS/SC or RL models. So if you are interested in making an appearance at a big time show post up and let me know.

The dates for NOPI Atlanta are Sept. 17th and 18th.

i was there last year. There was 13 SS/SC's there. But there dumb. They had all cobalts in the same class. We all got beat out by a 2.2L with airbags. If they want to have our car as the sponsored car. Recognize us.

But i will definately be there.

Well i think its crazy for a 2.2 and a 2.0 to be in the same class. But if they have it that way then its up for grabs i guess.

alright guys and girls....keep the numbers coming. I've got the GM reps name and number and will be contacting him with the numbers for this. The more the merrier!!! I know the DSLSJA group is looking forward to this after HIN - Charlotte.

To top this off, the GM rep said that more than likely GM will be handing out "FREE" stuff as appreciation to all GM owners that are part of this.
