well to further clarify… here is the deal KDKA Radio will be out at Starlite on Friday. They are taking over the show there that night and would like to talk to us about the cars, shops experience… Just like a 10 minute thing. The more people the better! Then, not this Saturday but the following Saturday they would like to do a radio interview with everyone. Also they are going to keep promoting the show/site/shops/party until the show airs. This is radio, but its definitely a start. A good bit of people tune into this show!

So Friday at Starlite Car Cruise in Wexford. Be there by 6:30

Are there any issues with Pinks on team members disclosing information from the event before it’s aired?

I can be the annoying proofreader on the news release. Just finished bleeding red ink on someone’s report.
