All this SEMA talk has caused a lot of late night sessions at the shop, running around all day and several sleepless nights. I’m sure people outside our scene look at us like we’re crazy. Why do people like us do it? Why do we comb the net in search of car pics and videos? Why do we spend all our money on our cars? Why do we drive almost anywhere for a meet?

Formula Drift 2011 This 2011 season of Formula Drift has been to me the most exciting to date. Becoming a media sponsor for the series was extremely exciting for us here at State of Stance, as we have watched this series grow from its roots to a full-fledged professional racing sanction. Ryan Sage and Jim Liaw along with their team have dedicated numerous amounts of time and effort to make sure that each season is even better than the last. Founded in 2003 as a sister company to Slipstream Global Marketing, the same partnership that brought D1 Grand Prix to the United States, Formula Drift Holdings has kept our automotive passion alive by...

As the sun was high in the sky over Las Vegas Motor Speedway, the IZOD IndyCar 300 went green sending out 34 drivers on a 300 mile journey to the checkered flag. Concerns circled throughout the paddocks as drivers debated the high bank of the Las Vegas Motor Speedway, yet the race continued, but only to end in dismay. Dan Wheldon (33) was an English born two time Indianapolis 500 winner who was a high spirited, inspiring individual to all who met and knew him. Wheldon started at the back of the pack for the Indy 300 and by the eleventh lap had already made his way up to 24th position and inching closer up the grid when tragedy struck. Two...
