2019 Robby Gordon Headquarters
SST hit's the Jackpot in Vegas!
Cool stuff! This is from the email blast!
Charlotte, N.C. (October 18, 2013) – Caesars Palace Las Vegas has hosted some of the greatest entertainment acts in the world – from Evel Knievel, to Frank Sinatra and Celine Dion, to the Formula One World Championship events in 1981 and 1982. On Thursday, November 7, 2013, taking part simultaneously with the automotive industry’s premier trade show, SEMA, Las Vegas history will once again be made as the SPEED Energy Stadium SUPER Trucks™ event (SST) makes its way to Caesars Palace on the Las Vegas Strip.
The race track for this special one-day only event will be constructed in front of Caesars Palace. High-flying SST trucks will propel past The Colosseum and through the Caesars Palace marquee. Fans will be thoroughly entertained as the high horse-powered SPEED Energy Stadium SUPER Trucks battle door-to-door, drifting around the seven-turn asphalt racecourse and flying over specially constructed metal ramps.
This event is open to the public. Tickets can purchased onsite at Caesars Palace or in advance at http://www.stadiumsupertrucks.com.
An event at Caesars has long been a vision of series President, Robby Gordon. The unique form of racing that SST offers was immensely popular more than 20 years ago – known then as the Mickey Thompson Off-Road Championship – and fittingly Gordon, one of the world’s greatest off-road racers, has brought it back to life.
“Bringing SST to Caesars during SEMA Show week, the world’s most premier automotive specialty products trade event,is something unheard of,” said Gordon. “We would like to thank everyone at Caesars Palace and The Forum Shops at Caesars for giving us the opportunity to present a race like this. Getting to race SST trucks on this property is something phenomenal.”
“Through the years Caesars Palace has always set the standard and continually raised the bar on the Las Vegas Strip,” said Caesars Palace Regional President Gary Selesner. “An event like this is special because it pays homage to the historical attention-grabbing events that Caesars Palace is known for – like Evel Knievel and the Formula One races, yet also brings forth a new element of exciting entertainment for our guests. We are thrilled to welcome SST with this monumental event and encourage locals and race fans alike to join in on the action.”
In addition to the SST lineup, USA Pro SuperMoto and Modified Trophy Karts will be competing with a full program of qualifying and main events.

the TOOL is back! Whats the good word for the Vegas bash? Im all ears...If its a night deal, I might be able to swing the it. Im working for GM again maybe giving rides in the new Chevy Stingrays. Come out and tell them TimmyT,( yes TimmyT is my stage name in the Nascar world,) sent you. Then duck after they take a swing at you just for knowing me! The kids checking you in wont know me. Yet the team checking your armband and placing you in the car will know me.lol Maybe i can swing a few ride-a-longs for my fellow planetiers! The only cost will be a nice cold Bud Light or twelve, Heniken, or a Sammie Adams while hanging out over everyone's funny stories of how we became sucked into this crazy deal we call Planet of the apes, ooops i mean um dam, sorry,my bad, Planet Robby!! I will check in from time to time, as my schedule and three jobs keeps me a busy turd.. Mj has direct access to the TOOL to keep me up my breast, err um scheesh oops sorry, I meant keep me up tp breast on any planned Planet meet and greets.TOG may have access to me as well, not sure. Or just do a plain PM. For those heading out this way, let me know if I can assist.
. Lets get down to funkytown! Git down wit yo bad sef!
At Barrett Jackson, I was given the keys to a brand new Stingray which had only 5 miles on her to give hot laps to unsuspecting prey. Three days of driving coupled with a set in a half of rubber later, making passangers scream in excitement, and some in fear, letting me know GM has a home run on their hands with this beauty! Its all dat and a bag of chips!
Until next time
The TOOL is out!
