David Hasselhoff was in downtown Los Angeles today filming a music video for his upcoming A&E reality series and we were there watching it happen. The production crew contacted Paul Casey from Paul Casey Productions to provide KITT cars for the shoot, building on the relationship by the Hoff's appearance at Knight Riser Festival II in Las Vegas. Paul brought his KITT (actually, his baby daughter's) out from Vegas, and worked with our friends from Knights of the West Coast for more cars. Gary Hunter, Alex Wong and Jennifer Catano also provided KITTs for filming.

Look for an eyewitness report in the forum soon, and we'll have more news involving Paul Casey and the Hoff in the next few days.
