As you guys can see, I am slowly changing my over-all theme. Please be patient as I get everything the way I want it. Thanks!

All posts for the month January, 2012
Props to Icon again. It’s pretty easy to get board with all these video that look the same and have the same theme. Icon had some dope shots in the first motorcycle drift video, but they really stepped there game up to another level in this one. It’s amazing what you can do with a go-pro. Anyways this video is all kinda of amazing and creative. The skill it takes to drift the bike around like that…Crazy!
I love finding classic European cars that haven’t been plastered all over the internet. I think we all know of Mike Burroughs silver E9 that caught all our hearts at H2Oi. It’s also been fairly safe to say that Stanceworks has the classic BMW game pretty well rounded. I am a full believer that the more “soul-less” modern cars are made, the more popular classic cars will get. And heck, you can’t really go wrong with a classic car, whether it’s Japanese, European, or American. I came across these pictures of a beautiful brown E9 and love it. It definitely is a different approach with shaving a bunch of things off. With a proper set of wheels, this car can be a real show stopper.
Love it.
Since I talked all that “trash” about the Honda community yesterday, I figure I show some love. I see so many damn EG’s at events that all look the same, it’s nice to see one done right. I hear it’s hard to get EG’s really low and equally hard to fit really wide wheels under the arches. I have a lot of respect for the guys that take the time to get it that low and wide. Definitely looks dope as hell that low. Drivability is another story haha. This very is very simply done and spot on. The CCW LM’s set the car off.
Props.
I think as a car enthusiast, you should have a well rounded collection of information in every category of sports and such. Dakar rally is a huge race, that in my opinion doesn’t get enough coverage. The fact that it is very long and at some times boring, may add to that fact. But it still takes a huge amount of team work, skill, and endurance to win this race. I have a lot of respect for the guys on the motorcycles. I mean there legs are taking a beating mile after mile, day after day. The video below is short coverage of today’s leg of the race. Stage 9.
Like I said it’s a LONG race.
Lets clear things up here. I love Honda’s. I mean Integra’s and Civic’s is what I started with when I first got into the “tuner” game. I’m pretty sure everyone did for that matter haha. BUT I really don’t like that majority of the JDM community on the east coast. It seems like nobody respects each other. Now of course I know there are plenty of Honda heads that are a pleasure to be around. Hell, I know a bunch of guys who have built some of the nicest Honda’s on the east coast and they are the nicest to be around. But the attitude of the majority just really lacks community. And for that most are looked down upon. On the west coast we see that the Honda game is more like the Volkswagen game here on the east coast. Everyone is family, there are some jackass’, but that’s the case for every community. There is more of a focus on quality in Cali’s honda game. Can’t say it’s the same for the east. We definitely are making leaps to get there, but I don’t think we’re quite there yet. I would really love to see this side of the country step it’s game up. So get in them garage’s and start wrenching!
Random EG from Japan, done right.
I have to say, that’s a pretty outrageous statement. Now-a-days everyone is so damn low, it’s hard to tell if your actually the lowest. But this IS is pretty damn low. The commentary is pretty funny. I was waiting for him to air up myself lol. CRAZY.
Ah man, I’m so glad I found this video. True Driving’s member Mike just copped a 2012 Accord coupe and I’m dying for him to drop it on a sick set of wheels. This video gives a sick visual as to how good this car actually looks on 20’s. Dare I say, perfect. It’s pretty simple when you think about it. It’s a large drop with a OEM lip kit and a lovely set of 20 inch Vossen’s. Oh, and you can’t forget about fitment. It’s all about the fitment!
This is for you Mike!
I think the E65 7-series was the car that grew on me the least on the BMW line-up. Or maybe it was that ever drug dealer in the Bronx owned one when they came out. But all jokes aside, I think it’s fair to say that the E65 was the least pretty 7 to date. Having said that you don’t really see to many of them modded “right”. I came across these two from Japan, and of course, they are done right. Dropped on a set of wheels that aren’t gaudy 22’s, for once. Props to the owners for taking the chance on a pretty ugly car. Japan does it right!
I apologize for falling off the map for the past couple of days. I wen’t away for the weekend last minute, and didn’t have any type of reception where I was.
Anyways, I am seeing Players 5.0 show video’s popping up here and there so I figure I share some of them. Player’s is a pretty intense show over the pond that shows some of the best cars in Europe. Here are a couple video’s covering some of the cars attending.
