LBGP '09: Hot Drivers. Hot Drifters. IT'S 95 Degrees HOT in LONG BEACH!

I wanted to post some more pics of the CARS and the STAR DRIVERS who make these puppies fly down Shoreline Drive in Long Beach with the greatest of ease.

BTW...Do you have ANY clue how hard it is to get the "perfect photo" of a car coming by you at 160 miles per hour...barely able to see...with just a half of one eye? Nearly impossible. My Goodness, the things I do in the name of "good blogging" sometimes is beyond my belief. LOL.

If you've NEVER been to a Long Beach Grand Prix, you don't have a CLUE what you are MISSING.

Everyone needs to experience this amazing mega-event at least ONCE in your life! I have been blessed to have seen this amazing event at least 25 times since it all started 35 (gulp) years ago.

Above Photos include the following AMAZING drivers....
Will Power (3), Dan Weldon (4), Scott Dixon (9), E.J. Viso (13), Justin Wilson (19), Ed Carpenter (20), Marco Andretti (26), Hideki Mutoh (27), Stanton Barrett (98).

I also wanted to share this vid clip of "Drift Racing" during this weekends LBGP. If your a really bad driver, you need to watch these folks keep total control of their "rides" under amazing pressure.

Meet Randy Economy

You may know me from my role as the Senior Advisor and Official Media Spokesman for the Recall Gavin Newsom campaign that established a worldwide blitz of interviews. I conducted more than 2,200 media interviews on behalf of “The People’s Recall” during a 10-month period from November 2020 to September 2021. The iconic magazine Mother Jones in a dramatic feature article called me “A ‘Superhero Pirate’ Radio Host, (and) Gavin Newsom’s Strangest—and Most Dangerous—Threat. Meet Randy Economy, the man behind the effort to recall California’s governor.” I appeared on more than 330 media outlets around the world in my capacity with RecallGavin2020. Fox News, CNN, MSNBC, Newsmax, NBC Nightly News, ABC News, as well as the Wall Street Journal, Washington Post, Politico, and dozens of other media outlets aired featured reports on my work on behalf of “The People’s Recall.” I am and will always consider myself to be a journalist. Sometimes I think I bleed ink. My talents as an Investigative Journalists in California earned me FIVE top awards from the prestigious Los Angeles Press Club in 2013, 2014, and 2016. I am tenacious. My reporting over the years has led to the prosecution of several elected officials in California. While working for a tiny community newspaper in Southeast Los Angeles County, I worked doggedly to expose the biggest public corruption case in Los Angeles County history when I unearthed a massive pay to play scheme inside the Assessor’s Office that led to the arrest of then Assessor John R. Noguez and four others. However, politics has been in my DNA since I was a child. I have worked on more than 300 political campaigns as a consultant and advisor since 1982 for candidates from all sides of the political spectrum including Democrats and Republicans, and even Libertarians. I am also a small business owner, serving as the President and CEO of Hot Water Studio & Production, LLC. My company works with media outlets across the state, nation, and world exposing public corruption via several new media platforms. I have also overcome personal challenges. I am legally blind with zero vision in my right eye and only 40 percent vision remaining in my left eye. I sometimes wear an eyepatch due to my failed vision. (Hence the nickname of “America’s Political Pirate.”
