On TV, the newest star of The Deadliest Catch TV show, Capt. Scott Campbell Jr. is seen riding the Alaskan waves aboard the F/V Seabrooke. But on land in his souped up 1962 Ford known as The Big Nasty, Campbell is set to rule the road on the truck racing circuit.

"I'm on track to kick start a new charity initiative in the loudest, fastest way I can conjure," said Campbell Jr. "With a racing truck."

The Walla Walla resident wants to raise money for children's charities by donating his racing wins. And to spread the word, he's offering an exclusive opportunity for Seattle's Scandinavian community. He's offering a Deadliest Catch Tailgate Party to the highest bidder at this year's fundraiser auction at the Swedish Cultural Center.

"You'll get the first chance to ride with Campbell in this one-of-a-kind racer," said auction co-chair Kelly Hughes. "To spend the day with a Deadliest Catch star, have a tailgate picnic, and talk about fast cars and the Bering Sea."

Campbell's unique item is already creating a buzz.

"The 1962 Ford ties in with our auction theme, Seattle in the 60's," said Hughes. "But people are especially excited because this is the only event that has offered a chance to personally meet Capt. Campbell and get a personal ride in The Big Nasty."

The auction will take place at 5pm on Saturday, September 24 at the Swedish Cultural Center at 1920 Dexter Avenue N, Seattle. Go to www.swedishculturalcenter.org for more information and to purchase tickets.
