More Winning than Charlie Sheen
posted by Leo Diaz
Here on the East Coast we do things a little different than the Left Coast. When it comes to music, we prefer fist pumping house to urban hip-hop. When it comes to fashion, we choose button downs and dress shoes to tees and Birkenstocks. When it comes to women, we prefer a brunette in a mini to a blonde in jean shorts. And when it comes to winning, we choose Volk Racing over a tiger blood induced roof top, weapon wielding escapade. Sorry Charlie, we love you anyway! Miguel’s TL is the perfect example of this. Sitting low and wide on 19×9.5 +19 and 19×10.5 +17 Volk Racing SF Winning, his rim tucking escapades through the city...

Pikes Peak | ride-a-long
posted by Leo Diaz
There are infamous tracks that challenge drivers with their technical turns such as Laguna Seca’s corkscrew and Tsukuba’s inside hairpin (help Japan). Then there are tracks that seem to be built by gods that take drivers with concrete concentration and iron guts to drive at limit. These tracks have claimed their share of cars and drivers such as Nurburgring (save the ring) and Pikes Peak. Those of you that know me know I’m a nerd for in-car cams. I love studying the lines, steering angles, shifting and such. But this is not about me, this is about Jeff Zwart and his 911 GT3 Cup Car as they broke the Time Attack 2WD class...

Angelic E92
posted by Leo Diaz
Edward Perez hit me up and told me he had some snaps of an E92 that I just had to see. I looked at the first picture and I knew I wanted to showcase this masterfully shot Varrstoen E92 belonging to Carlos Castellano. I love the fitment, I love how clean and simple it is and I love all the shots by Edward. Keep an eye on Ed as he’ll be doing some more features and event coverage for us in the future.

If you were to tell me that you saw a nice HR34 GT slammed on 15″ Watanabes I would probably question your taste in cars. It just doesn’t sound right to me. Seeing is believing and Strange-Drive out of Yamato City, Kanagawa did a great job mixing some old school style into this...

Maybe she’s not drifting per say, but it is a beautiful Playboy model shredding tires in Mike Essa’s $170k BMW drift car completely nude…..I’m not complaining. NSFW-ish: While they don’t really show full nudity in the video, it’s still a nude Playboy model....

Double Vision
posted by Leo Diaz
In the scene, there is no wheel more coveted than the always infamous BBS RS, a classic mesh design that has surpassed the years and remains ageless. Morphing from a vintage build to even the most late model cars, it continues to catch our eye. As did these two black beauties both sporting the mesh goodness so sexy that I think they beat Charlie Sheen’s Goddesses. Hailing from the West Coast of Florida is Sam Hussein. Sam’s tC is unlike many I’ve seen. While most Scion owners go the route of flashy mods and car show builds, Sam went the opposite direction and built a clean and simple ride that sits low and wide. Once...
