Litestar Pulse Owners Group

HISTORY of CLUB:
Tom Caprioli of Wisconsin, started to record his adventures with his Litestar after he purchased it in 1998 on an internet webpage. He continued to add his experiences to the website as he drove his vehicle. Several other Pulse owners found his website and Tom soon started an email forum which was hosted by Bill Costa.

The 1st Annual Rally was held in Madison, WI on Saturday September 18, 1999. Mike and Gail Boyson, Bill and Ginny Senter and Tom Caprioli were attendees. Tom drove his Litestar to the rally.

The 2nd Annual Rally was held in Fort Worth, TX at the BD5 Expo, October 28-29, 2000. Bill Senter trailered his restored Pulse down to the event and Tom went along to interview Jim Bede.

In December of 2000, Steve Schmidt started the Litestar & Pulse Network, Pulse Message Board and VIN Database website.

Leo & Jan Doyle provide the webspace on their computer servers, which is a great gift to the club.

A Message Board gives club members the ability to discuss repairs and maintenance quickly and has proven to be priceless.

The Litestar Pulse On-Line Website will be the heart of the Litestar/Pulse Owners Group. 'The Source' for a wealth of information for those owners who need assistance in maintaining their vehicles.

The greatest reason for the success of the Club, is due to the members who share their knowledge, pictures, literature and related experiences as to purchase, repairs and maintenance of their vehicles.

By combining all known information, a fantastic site which provides answers to the many questions about this amazing vehicle has been developed.

The Annual Rally provides members the opportunity to meet personally and enhance the friendships developed over the internet, inspect other vehicles and return home to continue modifications on their own vehicles.

We invite you to join us at the next National Rally over Labor Day weekend in Marion, Indiana. Ray & Judy Johnson and Chuck & Linda Furgason host the National Rally each year and work tirelessly to provide club members with a fun filled weekend. This is a great group of people!
