4 a.m. beep, beep, beep . . . . time to get up. No hitting the snooze button today. Bags are packed and clothes are laid out for a quick dash out the door for the Hub Cub Reporter. The Hub News Crew Boarded the MD-88 to ATL at 5:45 a.m. and we were in flight by 6:15 a.m. and fast asleep against the window.

Quick layover in Atlanta then onto the 757 to LAX. Flight was smooth and uneventful, always a good thing! Got in the rental car and headed straight up to Simi Valley where I dropped in on Steve Strope and the crew at Pure Vision design where they are putting in 16+ days getting their 1969 Charger ready for SEMA . . . .

Stay tuned for daily updates including photos from the Pure Vision Visit and daily reports from the NHRA Hot Rod Reunion all weekend in Bakersfield, CA.
