Sooo I haven't used this thing in awhile and actually wrote a long post with 100+ photos, but the damn thing didn't save... fuck me right? So here I am, rewriting about the first Texas AE86 Matsuri event in Houston, TX. I'm assuming anyone and everyone who's reading this post knows what an AE86 is... so I won't go into much detail on what they are... just know its t[...]

I think the DC5 is one of the most underrated chassis... you don't see many being tracked or driven much anymore.. one reason is because they are sought after for their engine and transmissions... also, they still retain some value. When tuned correctly, they look and handle amazing.. or so I've heard. I guess that's what all these guys are meeting up for in Austin.[...]
I totally forgot I had a blog... it's been a few months since I've posted on here but looks like I'm back. I've recently started getting into more cinematic videos and testing out the limits of this Sony A7iii... so what better way to test than to call up some ricers... shoutout to @lucky_fatpat and @d_malim for being test subjects on Episode 1 of the Ricer Series. C[...]
"I'm just going to keep it simple, clean, and reliable...." is what we all say when starting out with our car builds. 5 years later and it snowballs into one of the iconic looks that you'd only see from D1 videos from the late 90s... this is Kevin's Nissan 240SX SE Fastback. Check out the photos below and you can judge for yourself if this fits the categori[...]
Hey, how's everyone doing with this Coronavirus fiasco? Hope everyone is safe and staying isolated for the time being... unlike me who flew to LAX for Final Bout SS West... haha. Probably gonna have to quarantine myself for a week or two when I get back. While at Final Bout SS West, everyone keeps asking me what I thought of Final Bout Special Stage South (S[...]
As I'm typing this, the world is on a Coronavirus pandemic with people canceling events left and right, stocking up on toilet paper for some reason, and just mass hysteria... I get it, it's a crazy big deal and we should all be cautious, but the widespread panic is a bit much tbh. All types of small businesses and contracts are being slowed down... the economy is jus[...]
Mayday Garage's 2018 Wekfest Pre-Meet - Yep, I'm just now posting about it because I have some downtime... As usual, Johnp and I scrambled last minute for a location since Moontower Inn was undergoing some construction... so Fabio (OG MG member) mentioned 'The New Potato'. Located on the East End of Downtown Houston and 2 streets down from Moontower Inn, this was a g[...]
It's 2019... and two iconic cars meet up for a quick battle in Downtown Houston... who took took the victory? History shows that the hachiroku has never been defeated on Mt. Akina... but this... is.. Houston, TX. With all jokes aside, the Panda hachiroku you see above belongs to @pecx and the yellow RE Amemiya FD RX-7 belongs to @shinkuclassics (driven [...]
When is the best time to throw a meet in Houston? I would have to say April after attending Team 5Star OG 2018 Meet... The weather was nice and sunny but not too hot. I would say it's equivalent to a summer in California. So, how was the turnout of Team 5Star's meet? Check below for photos and words... If you're not familiar with Team 5Star, they are a bunch o[...]
When's the last time you've been to a grassroots drift event in Houston? I think it's been 4-5 yrs since I've been to a Lone Star Drift event... Some things have changed and some haven't... check out some of my words and photos of the 2018 Lone Star Drift v.Round 1 (sorry late AF post). The Lone Star Drift (LSD) series event is one of the longest running grassr[...]
