Optima Invitational Photos & Video

This is our first of what will end up being several post on this event. To say it was great, doesn’t even begin to describe it.

The photos below will help, and the video (and there will be lots-o-video) will do it even more justice, however, in the end it will simply be impossible to capture the coolness factor of seeing cars of this quality being used (beat on hard!!) in an unbelievable setting following such a great event as SEMA.

I think the word “Ultimate” in the title of the event (Optima Ultimate Street Car Invitational) was intended to describe the cars, but I think it works equally as well to describe the event.

Oh, and by the way, the photos posted here, were all taken by none-other than the Great Tony Bicknell. Who would have thunk he had the skills?
