Nick Hogan Rocks Hot Rod Show While Charges Loom

Nick Hogan made a very public appearance with fast cars at the big SEMA car show in Las Vegas yesterday, just one day before Florida authorities say his criminal case could be moving forward -- and a short time later, Polaroid, the sponsor of his drift car, dropped him from its roster.

While his pal John Graziano, the former Marine who was critically injured in the souped-up car Hogan crashed on August 26, remains in a coma in Florida, Hogan spent the day kibbitzing with fans in the NOPI Drift Racing Booth at the show.

Law enforcement sources tell TMZ, the case against Hogan could go to the State Attorney as soon as today.

Meanwhile, Nick's dad, Hulk Hogan, spent Tuesday night partying at the Playboy Club in The Palms Hotel.

92. Anybody in the car or racing industry that affiliates themselves with him is as big an ass as he is. Poor "friend"! More reality shows will play out to show you what these jerks are really like...DOG the Bounty Hunter, the Carter boys, and the Hogans.

93. why isnt he in jail, he should have been put in jail when the accident happened. after what he has done to the other guy that was in the car, he should be inprisoned for life.

94. Nick doesn't seem to care that his friend will never be the same and looks like he will not be coming out of the coma. I'm from Fl. and the laws here suck!!! They really need to throw the book at this kid because it's really plain as day he has no feelings for what he did at all. And for any company to sponser him in anything he does now or ever wants to do, they too need to check themselves. At least this sponser did the right thing by dumping him. I'm a Hogan fan from way back but this makes me sick.

95. Why not lay off Nick!! The kid's got enough on his mind, as his is. Some of you people, and your sick comments, shouldn't be allowed to post. Hard to believe you can get so much enjoyment, out of someone elses suffering. Keep in mind.., it's was Nicks friend's choice, not to wear the seatbelt. My heart goes out to both boys.

96. Thank you Polaroid for removing your sponsorship with this irresponsible, wannabe drifter. The whole Hogan family looks so stupid marching around the country living it up after their son has permanently disabled someone.

TMZ - please continue your coverage on this story so the Hogan family can't sweep it under the rug with their money broom!

97. The money will be flying of Hulk's bank account. Since his son is a minor, he's financially responsible for his actions. I'm sure the police will be sued as well for being so lenient with his speeding.

It this kids in a coma for the rest of his life that equals to tens of millions of dollars in medical care.

99. My heart goes out to Mr. Graziano and his family, and I do hope this uncaring piece of trash Nick doesn't pollute the planet by producing more of this tribe. What a selfish, uncaring, self-centered no good pompous piece of filth. His day will come. And when it does, I will have no compassion at all for him or anyone in that family. What goes around comes around....eventually.

Seems like Father like son...Pops is showing his old ass at the Playboy Club and baby Nicky is showing his ass waiting for people to tell him how wonderful he is. Get a clue, you idiotic morons. I sure as hell wouldn't be "living it up" while I knew my friend was in the condition he/she is in. With "friends" like them, who needs enemies. They thoroughly disgust me.

100. why don't you go to college and get a job Nick......and stop relying on Daddys fame to support you in life...same goes for you Brooke ...there are hundreds of girls that sing better than you

101. I guess Terry and Linda's no longer together. Moving to Hollywood was the worse thing they ever could've done. Brooke doesn't have the talent and her Dad's $ can only go so far, Nick wouldn't last 5 minutes in the REAL world so I guess Hollywood is the safest place for him. If he ever came to Michigan, he'd get his ass handed to him with talking the way he does. Someone needs to slap that kid up

102. Wow... Iam sorry but seat beat or not , Nick was speeding and racing on a public street racing should NEVER be on a public road !! I cant understand how Nick could be out and about as if he dont have a care in the world,what is wrong with these rich people? No heart,no common sense,no pride,self respect, no respect for others!! His little spoil ass should be sitting in a jail cell right now. As for his parents out clubbing,that would be the last thing on my mind if a child of mine basically killed someone ! Still dont understand why he still had license anyway ???? I pray that this young man come through this, so sad!!

103. Yeah fly I was just thinking that. Does nick even go to high school? He is only 17 years old. He had to have dropped out. With all of daddy's money who needs school right!

104. Dork loser. I bet Hulk Daddy is really proud.

105. Thank you for sharing the info from Florida re: the swift action taken by law enforcement, when the individual is "average joe" and not a so-called celebrity, based on genes, or your dad being a famed wresler or having some lame show on VH1......if that is a celebrity now, and apparently it is.

I think most people are upset that a life has been destroyed due to criminal vehicle activity that Mr Hogan has displayed on many occasions and the police have not held him accountable, nor if the TMZ articles are correct, have his parents, and most importantly has he himself accepted responsiblitly.

Nick Hogan does not owe me any explanation for his friends tragic accident, nor do I judge what I percieve to be his blatant self centered actions. HOWEVER, I DO expect the law enforcement to keep repeat offenders, that have also severly injured others, OFF THE STREETS, before his "racing" and inability to control his vehicle harm any of my family or loved ones. I merely ask that he be treated the same as someone whose father was not in the WWF. How pathetic , we must ask for equal justise.
