The Columbus Goodguys Nationals was a great show. Friday’s rain didn’t seemto deter the street rodders nor the spectators. I believe everyone was up for agood car show, meeting up with old friends, as well as making new ones. Despitethe rain everyone in attendance seemed to have a good time. Once the rain camethrough on Friday the weather was perfect for the Midwest, mid 80’s with a nicebreeze to keep everyone cooled down.

Saturday ended with the crowning of tis years 2010 Street Rod of the Year andStreet Machine of the Year. This years street rod winner is Jerry Magnuson fromCA, and this years street machine winner is Karen Leisinger from Wall Lake, SD.Karen makes history being the first woman to capture the title of Street Machineof the Year, what an accomplishment for her!

Look for some pictures by tomorrow on either the Hubgarage or Facebook . Full coverage of the event can be found in the near future on LIA Magazine, liamag.com .

We have asked you, the viewer, what kind of articles you want in the magazine. Here are some of the feedback LIA Magazine received:

•  A story on the men who support, encourage, and promote women in racing. A "Stand by your Woman" column each month.
• Women in automobile manufacturing industry, executives, designers, etc.
• Hot Rodding women, online women, magazine based, TV, radio, about their jobs, etc. Albuquerque N.M. traffic reporter radio gal Helen Wheels, say her name fast and it's Hell on Wheels.
•  Standings for any woman that raced the previous weekend, drag, circle track, indy car, F1, any racer, motorcycle, Bonneville, etc.
• Young college age women into racing at local tracks, etc
• The women that did it first, fastest, first national win, first to start, etc

• Young college age women into racing at local tracks, etc

• The women that did it first, fastest, first national win, first to start, etc.

• Young go-cart, drag racing girl racers, accomplishments, etc.

• Sell racing products for women,etc.

• Sell sport clothing for women etc.

• Girls at Wyo Tech, UTI or other schools, etc.

• For the woman of the month idea...I think she should be called LIA's Feature "Lady" of the Month...just a thought....

•  I would like to see some how to's on trouble-shooting Step by step

• cover the women who have found success and earned respect throughout the industry and get their stories

• There are SEMA women's groups, DRAW, and other such organizations to find subjects to profile

• Beyond the great female race drivers there are successful businesswomen, legendary racetrack gals who earned respect (like Linda V. and Jungle Pam) and young ladies who are forging their own respectable paths (like the gal who did the traditional hot rod movie and documented its progress here on the HAM

• have some articles featuring the gals across the country that are really into Traditional cars

• My girlfriend and I went to a car cruise sat. nite and found several woman owners who had great stories about their passion for hot rod and customs

• Maybe an ongoing column on real local women across the country or wherever talking about their rides. As much I love history, I need the visuals, maybe a monthly contest for photos of women and their rides

• I’d love articles of ladies cars and the work they have done on their cars. Tech articles and women involved in the early hot rodding/ Kustom days would be great too. Maybe even interviews with the wives/girlfriends/daughters of the old Racers and Kustomisers

• I would love to see articles/interviews of the wives/daughters of the ol timers. Maybe even articles of the ol' "Track Girls" and "Flag Girls" the list goes on and on

• I can remember names like Vicky Woods and Denise McCluggage that raced and were factory test drivers in the Fifties and Sixties. You might want to look at the ladies that race at Bonneville and El Mirage. The car that I'm running was previously driven by a real great lady Marge Price. I know they all have a lot of very interesting stories...

LIA Magazine's - Heading to Indy Goodguys

I've been very busy getting ready for the official launching of the magazine to the public. This month is the first official issue. We are heading down to Indy this weekend for the Indy Goodguys show. Will you be in attendance? I would love to meet up with all you gals and guys at the show or the Adams Mark. We also plan to visit with the Road Rockets on Saturday.

Currently for the magazine we have 3 or 4 categories/columns we are wanting to publish every month - Events/Happenings (This can include building a car, testing a car at the track before a race, event itself, etc.), How Tos,  Features (This can be race cars, hot rods, bikes, etc.), and Who's Who.

I am currently accepting stories or photos from the magazine's readers. So, if you have anything you want to share please go to the contact page - http://www.liamag.com/contact.html. Anyone who'd like to meet up with us send me a comment. If you can't set a time aside to meet please stop and talk with us at the show or the hotel in the evening.  

Looking forward to meeting up with many of you this coming weekend.

When we came upon this nice and clean 1951 Ford Sedan, we all thought wow this is a really neat custom. As we took a closer look we soon realized that it was built by gals and guys from Roseville High School out of Roseville, Michigan.
