BRE News #86: The Holiday Edition! November 22, 2023

Dear Gayle,


The end of 2023 is near! 

 

We want to thank you for your friendship and support this year. Every year seems to be even more special than the year before and this year was no exception. Lots of great events. Some were our regular events and some were new to us.

 

For this holiday season we've had the opportunity to go through our shelves and share some of our own items. In that cleaning, we amazingly found one last BRE team-signed Stainless Steel Carrot book, which we're making available.


Speaking of books, for the holidays Peter will be autographing all of our books at no charge. See details below.


We're in the process of reviewing events for 2024 and will soon be updating and announcing our 2024 schedule. You can always check our schedule here as that will be the first place we post it.

Rare, Rare, Rare!

BRE Team Signed Stainless Steel Carrot Book


While cleaning off our shelves we found one last BRE Team-Signed Stainless Steel Carrot book. This book famously chronicled the BRE team during it's 1972 Championship season with the BRE Datsun 510 with John Morton at the wheel. Nine team members signed this book at a reunion in 2016. Unfortunately we have lost two members since then. Be fast to grab this last signed copy here.

BRE Mouse Pads!

Yes, even your mouse can be faster with a BRE mouse pad

A quick survey around BRE found that everyone had gunked up mouse pads needing to be replaced. But where do you buy mouse pads? How do you know what kind of quality they are? Why are they either black or have lame graphics. We decided to take control!


These BRE mouse pads are of the highest quality possible, made of comfortable cloth on a thick pad. Best of all, the graphics are great! We've also heard they make your mouse faster!


Shipping costs are crazy these days so buy several (great gifts and stocking stuffers) and have them ship together. If you think the shipping cost the system has calculated for you is inaccurate, please contact us so we can check the options.


Order your BRE mice here! They make great gifts and stocking stuffers at only $9.95. fyi - this is a one-time run and they won't be made again, so do like us and stock up!

Open House Released BRE “Gold” 510 models

Happy we can offer more Kaido House BRE Datsun 510 Gold models

We released the BRE Limited Edition of this model a few months ago. Now, after our Open House, it's time to release the regular models we have, still the same high quality models as before but at a lesser cost.


The details of these Kaido House models continue to blow us away. These “gold” BRE Datsun 510 racers are no exception. Not only are the regular details of the model amazing but the tires are detailed with white BRE DATSUN lettering on them. Inside the model, details are included such as the roll cage, steering wheel, seats… all in 1:64 scale!


The BRE livery is white with a subtle metallic gold. Very striking. And of course the underside has the trademark Kaido House rainbow metal.

  

Order your model(s) here now while they last!

The BRE #68 Datsun 510 Oil Can set

Non-Limited Edition Set that

Still Impresses

We love these #68 BRE 510 Oil Can sets by Tarmac.  And it’s a real tin can!


We offered a limited edition a few months ago and saved these for our Open House. Now we can release the rest. It’s a great display set with every detail attended to, including a perfect replica of the BRE Datsun 510 blue and white #68 guest car. It’s just crazy impressive.


Each set contains:

• This stunning 1/64 scale model of the #68 BRE 510

• This beautiful oil can in the colors and livery of the BRE 510 racer that Brock always thought was the best looking of all the BRE cars!

• The striking box that contains the oil can with model inside.


Get yours here now!!

The BRE/Aerovault Team Evolves

A Rare Opportunity

It was hoodie day today at Aerovault and BRE! We have a monthly company-wide meeting where we bring in lunch and share customer experiences with our Aerovault and BRE teams. We've always provided Aerovault shirts to the team and the last couple of years we have also provided heavy Carhartt jackets for winter wear (Cameron, 4th from the right is wearing his Carhartt jacket).


We encourage ideas and a couple of months ago someone recommended we also provide Aerovault hoodies. Some of the guys already wear hoodies to protect themselves while welding. We took a poll and got an overwhelming response that the guys would love hoodies, especially during the weather transition when it's too cold to not wear a jacket but not cold enough to wear the heavy Carhartt jackets. During today's monthly lunch we gave out the hoodies. The guys appeared to have no clue what was in the large box sitting next to Gayle during lunch as they literally squealed as she took out the first hoodie.


As with everything, the only constant is change. After 7 years, Monty is no longer with the company. The position he held is evolving and in addition to handling customer service, order fulfillment, inventory and supplies, there is an opportunity for the person in this position to be involved in our social media and events. Must-have qualifications are: 1) have a great customer service orientation, 2) have good verbal and written communication skills and 3) be organized and efficient.


If you know someone who might qualify and be interested, they can contact us here


In Closing


It's been an amazing year and we're ready to spend the rest of it here in Henderson, NV. January starts up again with the best racing you'll ever see at the Chili Bowl Midget Nationals in Tulsa, OK. This is quickly followed by Barret Jackson in Scottsdale where we will have an Aerovault trailer exhibit just outside where the cars come off the auction block.


Last note: At this time of year we are often sent gifts. We appreciate your thoughts and kindness. However, we don't need any more food, wine, art, photos, etc. If you would really like to do something for us this holiday season, we ask that you make a donation to our personal fund at the UC Davis Veterinarian Medical School. These are the people that saved Kit's life in 2019 when we could find no other specialty center who could give her more than a 50-50 chance of survival after needed surgery. The funds go toward purchasing equipment for their small animal hospital. UC Davis donations average $44 so nothing major is needed or expected.


This is entirely voluntary. We just ask that IF you were going to send us something, please instead, make a donation here!


Our very best wishes to you and yours for a wonderful holiday season. It's not an easy time for everyone so please be kind and thoughtful to all.
