York, PA Set to Host Next NSRA Nationals Event This Weekend

AMSOIL is making a big impact in the street rodder market, most recently with the addition of our new AMSOIL Z-ROD Synthetic Motor Oil.

As an official product sponsor of the National Street Rod Association (NSRA), the AMSOIL message reaches thousands of street rod enthusiasts each year. This is largely due to the fact that the NSRA hosts Nationals events all across the country throughout the spring and summer, drawing out huge numbers of enthusiasts and spectators alike. This coming weekend will find the NSRA Street Rod Nationals East Plus event at the York Expo Center in York, PA. Over 4,000 street rods, muscle cars, customs, and specialty vehicles from all over the country are expected, together accumulating a total worth of over $112 million.

In addition to the thousands of ‘main attractions’, the NSRA goes to great lengths to ensure the entire family has something fun to do and see. A Model Car Contest is a special attraction geared at attendees of all ages, and is open to the public. Activities ranging from the Streets of Rods to the Women’s World area round out the weekend, with live entertainment providing a soundtrack to the festivities. Over 165 manufacturers and dealers descend on York to participate in the trade show and vintage swap meet, featuring both inside and outside exhibits.

Additionally, over $83,000 is SuperPrize giveaways and special Sunday $weep$take$ are awarded to registered participants, making this even more of a can’t-miss event. If you are in the York, PA area be sure to attend this remarkable experience and see what other activities the NSRA has in store at the 38th Street Rod Nationals East Plus.

Custom Cadillac Escalade EXT Headed to SEMA

The excitement is building and final plans being hammered out for the SEMA Show just weeks away. AMSOIL has been busily preparing for another successful appearance at this year's show, and word is spreading throughout the car builder scene on what AMSOIL can bring. AMSOIL will be installed in more high-profile vehicles than ever before. Here's a peek at another SEMA 2009 AMSOIL-installed ride.

The Custom Shop out of Flanagan IL is no stranger to the SEMA scene. They've previously done builds for Ford Motor Company, General Motors, Nissan and Toyota. So when they approached AMSOIL with their latest project, a 2007 Cadillac Escalade EXT with matching enclosed trailer, we had to jump on board with a product that can endure such hauling. The Custom Shop is filming the build from start to finish for V8-TV, and plans on filming out the finished project right there in Vegas. The vehicle theme is designed to create a high-end SUV that will pull a custom built trailer, all with Air Ride Load Leveling Technology.

‘Custom’ is the common term for this build. Modifications include a custom show paint job, Pewter Pearl Color Shift top with a Pearl White bottom airbrushed with Candy Sunset center. From there, a custom cowl hood, tinted windows, 22’ chromed rims and handles, right down to custom pedals all work to make this Cadillac unlike any other on the streets. That’s just the SUV itself; the matching trailer it tows holds its own with a complete audio/video system including TV and DVD player, air suspension and display area inside.

A check under the hood will find AMSOIL Signature Series 0W-30 oil, AMSOIL Severe Gear Synthetic Gear Lube, AMSOIL Synthetic Fuel Efficient ATF, and of course, an AMSOIL Ea Oil Filter. What makes the best builders the best is their attention to detail, including the details you can't see, but which make a difference in the ultimate performance. Enjoy the show!
