I got the following email and will call the guy after lunch to make sure he's legitimate. Should I or anyone from ITRCA do it?

"Yoshi:

I got your name and e-mail address from the So Cal ITR website. My name is
Michael Palmer and I am the Executive Producer for a radio show called
Highway570 on KLAC AM570.

Highway 570 is a unique weekly car show with a fresh, young attitude.
Unlike most car programs on the radio that feature old hosts and boring
topics, Highway 570 is geared toward a demographic of car enthusiasts. Our
listeners are interested in the newest and most trendy cars, accessories,
and modifications on the road along with paying tribute to the classics that
you can never forget. Anything and everything to do with cars. From the
Classic Cars of yesterday to the fastest cars of today, Highway 570 has
something for everybody. Our host, Damien Lewis, has been involved in radio
for years and has grown up with a passion for cars. With his extentensive
knowledge, fresh attitude and help from his expert assistants in the "Pit
Crew", Highway 570 shifts the normal, boring car show into high gear.

Taking our passion for the automobile to the Southern California airwaves,
Highway 570 has found a home in one of the largest markets for both cars and
radio in the United States. Highway 570 broadcasts to millions every Sunday
live on KLAC AM570 and Nationwide on the XM Satellite Radio Network.

We at Highway 570 are interested in developing a relationship with car clubs
like ITRCA because our show is dedicated to you and people like you who love
cars. We want you and everyone in your club to use our radio show as a
forum to speak out, voice their opinion or to just listen and be
entertained. We'd also like to help you promote and grow your club by
getting the word out about ITRCA with the help of our show.

Both Damien and I would be interested to come and speak at your next club
meeting to let your members know what Highway 570 is and how we are here to
service their car needs through our radio show. I'd also like to set up a
time for you and any other members of your club to come by the Highway 570
Studios to chat about your club and your cars live on air. Maybe you can
even bring by some of your Integras and we can take some pictures of them
for our website.

Please get back to be at my office (818) 295-5462 or by e-mail at
michaelpalmer@clearchannel.com. Thanks and I look forward to hearing from
you soon.

Sincerely,

Michael Palmer
Executive Producer
Highway 570
