I've been an EMT for about a year now, so it's still somewhat new. Thanks for the compliment. I've been working on cars for over a decade, and will always love cars. However, I truly enjoy working in EMS, and feel in love with it quickly. I still have the car business- GRH Performance, but it's only fraction of what is was. EMS is my full time job.

Greg,

Congrats on the EMS employment, it's a rewarding job (I'm sure you have some interesting stories to tell) and AMS is a great outfit.

BTW, what's the latest with the NorCal AMS SF Giants fan who was attacked by thugs on opening day at Dodger Stadium? Is he still in a coma at the local trauma unit?

[socalwrench]

Thanks SVT Naja. Yeah, the stories are adding up. I'm a bit confused with other part though- the company I work for is AMR (probably just a typo). Anyway, I wasn't there for that call, and I haven't heard any additional news- as far as I know he's still in the hospital. He does work for AMR as a paramedic, but out in the San Jose area. Our North Hollywood station just had a small fundraiser for him.

Greg,

My bad, I've got FFS (Fat Finger Syndrome). I meant AMR (aka: American Medical Response).

Thanks for the fundraiser! It's ironic that someone whose life is dedicated to helping others with theirs, would fall victim to a vicious attack that threatens his own life. I hope and pray for Bryan's speedy recovery. http://www.ktvu.com/...331/detail.html

You EMT/PM guys are always at your best when we find ourselves in dire straits. Thanks for all you do!

Jim

[socalwrench]

Well, you're more than welcome Jim. Talk to you guys later.

Greg

Now THAT sounds cool!  (I MAY be able to afford one of those)!  ;^)

I read in the latest Shelby Mag, that CS was also considering doing magic on the Fusion.  (Sure, we just bought a new '12...can we ship it out to get Shelby-ized??)

As a retired (retarded) paramedic from Florida please let us know where we can send a donation to help out for the injured EMT.  After thirty years of being in the streets assigned to SWAT and dual certified it is always a fear of ours that we may be the ones getting hurt or worse yet.  As a group we have to stick together and help each other.  Thanks for the encouraging words from you guys and lets help this private service EMT out.  He may have kids and a wife and its near Christmas so lets help him out.  Enjoy your new career I loved mine most of the time.

Any NEW news on the Shelby Focus?

[jerseygator]

[Wayne in NJ]

New Year, old question:  Any news on the Shelby Focus?   (Happy New Year, BTW)!

[JeffJ]

If there will be any such thing, expect to see nothing until the NAIAS Detroit.  But hey that is coming up January 14th!  I expect we'll see none, some of, or all rumors expelled at that time.  I've got to be right on some of that.

[Wayne in NJ]

I'll have to (someday) 'settle' for an ST, and add my own LeMans stripes?

[JeffJ]

Mr. Luft just posted a couple shots on facebook of the Shelby booth at the NAIAS.  The covered car with the gold cover, black stripe is clearly a Focus.  So should be exciting news tomorrow I'm guessing!!!

[mywickedshelby]

in answer to the title of this thread.....it looks like they are here!

[ilmor]

Will it be called the Focus GLHS II?

[dh777]

[Wayne in NJ]

Wonder how much...(I know, we'll find out when they introduce them)!

[UK PONY]

Dependant on price I could be in the market for one of these.
