Joe, I checked my listings last night and didn't see anything. Maybe they don't have the actual contents of the show listed??
I know...There seems to be confusion with the scheduling...I'm just passin' on the probable dates as I get them.......
They say "it is" supposed to be aired.....
...Lets see what happens on March 12..hopefully it will happen then....... http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/burnout.gif
What were we talking about again..
You were supposed to be taking notes..........If the review of the Motion book doesn't show up on the March 12 (MotorWeek)..then you'd better get out your Lil' popcorn guy Rick............

I think it would be easier to have Marty over for dinner and yak about the book next time he is in town... http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/beers.gif
O.K........The White Castle belly bombers are on me...
I was told the MOTORWEEK show aired the Motion segment earlier this week --some fellas actually saw it..And NO, I wasn't one of them....
On a brighter note...There's a review of the MOTION book in the current issue of VETTE MAGAZINE & HEMMINGS MUSCLE MACHINE...........As per Marty....... http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif http://www.yenko.net/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/beers.gif
