That was the other Sol Pontiac sponsored in Formula D last year, Gardella Racing owned the car. Ryan Tuerck was the driver. He let my son and I help put some of the sponsor decals on the car in Atlanta, he took third at Atlanta, had a 2 Solstice podium, Rhys took First Ryan took third, and the Pontaic GTO ws forth, it was a big Pontiac night. Gary Gardella who owns the team and drives the Red Bull Cobalt Funny Car, bought several of us lunch in Englishtown, Dengel was there and my son and several others. The Project manager for Ecotec racing was there too, Carmen Smith, he said oh you guys drive Solstices, come on over have some lunch and a Red Bull.

This is me talking with Ryan in Atlanta. If you go to the track on the Friday before the race, everyone is so cool. All the drivers will stop and talk with you.
I just through the pictures of the Guys from Poison up there for fun. I almost got thrown out for taking them., they have a NO SLR rule at the Concert Hall. I have 100's more pictures of the race I just haven't put them up on photobucket.

Here is my friend Max who got me into all of this insanity! That's Dai Yoshihars with him he drove the GTO.

Rhys with the Trophy in Atlanta, and Dai holding up his trophy, NOT!

Right after these pictures we all went out to dinner, and I put the camera away out of respect, I wish I had some pictures to share. Rhys's wife was there and several of the other drivers and the whole RMR team! It never would have happened without Max, who in May will become and LA cop, heaven help LA!

Thanks for posting those! I had no idea so many people were driving Solstices. The only one I've ever seen is the Red Bull and I have some up close pics from the Pontiac Show in Norwalk but to see them in action is great.

Then the ladies!

And Poison! I dated a girl who was friends with some "fan club" members and got to hear some great stories.....way back in the day!

I have a ton of Poison pictures too, my brother is there lighting director, seen them 3 times on there last 2 tours, and I don't even like the damn band. I do however like my brother. They will be on tour again this summer with a very famous hair band, honey. A few more Poison pictures just for kicks.
