One of the best things about getting out to car shows is that we get to see so many of our friends on the road. At Louisville we were surprised to see our friend Sam Memmolo, of the TV show Motorhead Garage. We knew he wasn’t booked as a celebrity ... no... he was just there as a spectator enjoying the show. Sam has been a favorite in our industry since way back when... with the Shadetree Mechanic show that we all enjoyed. We were really glad to see Sam and Dave Bowman back on the air last year with Motorhead Garage .... There are still several episodes left this season on your local Fox Sports Network on Cable or Satellite. Learn more here
