Open House
Steve Millen is one helluva cool guy. A legendary racer with more championship wins than the number of Carter's cars, he also found time to launch Steve Millen Sport Parts in '86 (right around the same time Nads' Flock of Seagulls coif was in full force). Now, some twenty years later Stillen is an aftermarket powerhouse (while Nads is still jockin' the FoS).
Even though Millen crushes the competition in both racing and retail, he still takes time out to open his doors (and his heart - the big lug) every so often to welcome Nissan and Infiniti owners from all walks of life to a massive open house. Think of it as the ultimate Customer Appreciation Day, with a car show, cool door prizes, free grub, dyno runs, shop tours and product displays and demos.
Think about it: You could buy Stillen parts at a discounted rate, have everything installed, and race Millen in a drag challenge down Airway Avenue. You can't beat that with a Z32 hood prop. Check out www.stillen.com to find out when the next open house's going down. Make your travel plans now!
Street Smart
Back in October of '94, Versus Motorsports humbly launched their Import Showoff and Kosoku Sports body kit lines. Now with a 30,000 sq ft. warehouse, massive 210,000 sq ft. manufacturing facility, more body kits served than McDonald's and more lines than an office desk belonging to Tony Montana (i.e. Grease Monkey, Charge Speed USA, Hybrid-FRP and Carbon-Pro), Versus has grown exponentially due to its competitive quality and pricing. You could say in the case of Versus versus the Competition, Versus has won. www.versusmotorsport.com
Party, Party!

Ring Of Power
NOPI and Wench Jewelry introduced new championship rings for their drift and drag series. You can't buy these anywhere; the only way to get one is by winning a NOPI Drag or Drift event. Constructed from Tiffany-grade silver and formed in the shape of a wrench, the rings come in different widths depending on rank, proving once again that size indeed matters. www.nopi.com
