EVENT: Stretch & Poke 2 - "HardParked"
Posted: Wednesday, June 9th, 2010 by: Chris
Well, the last one was a bit of a trial run, lets call it. That first event was such as success however, with over 120 cars showing up, that we decided to give it another go-round! David has teamed up with JDMEGO (if you don't know, you don't know) and we're going to try make this event even 'more'. The location is going to rotate ...

FEATURED: Jay's Tuck'n Rolled M3 Vert
Posted: Wednesday, May 26th, 2010 by: Chris
Well it's been a little while since I posted up, and that's because I've been busy shooting some new rides. Fear not. I'd never let a social life get in the way. I ran into Jay's stunning black M3 convertible at a meet earlier this spring and knew right away I had to shoot this car. That was as far as I got. His idea was ...

Posted: Monday, May 24th, 2010 by: Randy
Having experienced the sights and sounds of and ALMS weekend in person last year for the first time, you can't help but have a few favourites that you tend to capture a few more photos.  For myself, the works GT BMW M3 cars are a couple of my favourites.  Everything from the refined but distinct sound of the inline motor, to the widebody fender flares ...

Time To Make Good Use Of That Printer At Work
Posted: Wednesday, May 19th, 2010 by: Chris
Look, your work probably wastes tonnes of money and paper every year printing off TPS reports or some other banal crap anyways, you might as well blend in some stuff that's really going to make worthwhile use of all those trees. Check out some of these ridiculously cool papercraft cars made by people with a lot of time, carpal tunnel syndrome, and probably near-sightedness. Oh ...

NETSCIVATING: Aston Martin Gauntlet Concept
Posted: Wednesday, May 19th, 2010 by: Chris
Car freak/designer Ugur Sahin has become known in the last little while for taking stabs into the murky future of automakers. He's different though from most people out there who do this as a.) he understands the design language of the marques he fiddles with b.) he clearly has the technical skills to bring to life his ideas at a higher level. One such stab ...

SIGHTING: Downtown Dino
Posted: Tuesday, May 18th, 2010 by: Chris
Spotted this Ferrari Dino sitting downtown outside a hotel recently. These are beautiful cars, and while not rare they're every bit as beautiful as their counterparts like the Testarossas. The Dino name was actually a sub-brand originally; an attempt by Ferrari to find a way to produce more cars at a lower cost and keep the highly strung V12 engines for the Ferraris while Dinos ...

SIGHTING: Really Red 997 GT3
Posted: Monday, May 17th, 2010 by: Chris
Just thought I'd share a little bit of autoporn to pass the time. Met the owner of this GT3 at a recent event and he was really friendly. Full of great advice too as this car, while street driven, is as much a track car as any I've hard of! This car unlike so many of them, gets used the way ...

Sigh...
Posted: Monday, May 17th, 2010 by: Chris
Sorry about that folks, we were experiencing some technical difficulties today with the database server. Looks like one of the software engineers had a little too much hooch and spent the afternoon playing hide the pickle with himself rather than, well, anything else. At least that's the best explanation I was given. Sounded legit at the time.
