Nurotag wasn’t done with their tour just yet! They came back to it’s beloved home, Miami. Bigger and better this time! Not only indoor but also outdoor and of course full of elegant taste. Everything was to be seen. From Classic, Import, Luxury and Stance was a part of each ride. There was something for everyone. Pretty much any car enthusiast’s paradise in paradise. It was nice to see new faces and new outstanding projects, though there were people who attended from the last shows. Even with being attendants before they brought a new look and taste of their projects this time around with newer and exciting features to...

SEMA 2012 Re-Kindled Enthusiasm Photography by Frank Leon & Michael Alvarado Specialty Equipment Market Association, or SEMA as the rest of the world knows it. Once again we attended SEMA and much to our surprise there was a resurgence of enthusiasm in the air. The past couple years at SEMA had been good, but it did not have that “WOW” factor, maybe it had something to do with a harsh economy or whatever. This year there were so many manufacture builds that they overflowed into the outside parking and show areas, and not just slapped together garage builds, we saw a lot of quality built vehicles. There was also a continued growth...

Nurotag Inaugural Event Photography by Viet Dang & Frank Leon After some hurricane related postponements, the Nurotag event went off without a hitch in the Miami design district. Filling not just the convention center with 100 hand selected cars, but flooding the streets in every direction with tuned cars as far as the eye can see. Nurotag is a new breed of events. Names like Hot Import Nights and Nopi have flooded the scene with nonsense that has nothing to do with our automotive culture or little to do with the cars we build. I mean, how does it make sense to clean and detail my car for an event and then showcase it in the...

I had the opportunity to cover this event along with Frank and the whole time all I could think about is how uncomfortable wet socks are. Even with soaked socks and wet shoes, the NSCRA staff and the girls from the Jessica Barton Model Lounge put forth a great effort to make the best of a wet situation.        Next time, I’m bringing an extra pair of socks and some swim trunks. I would suggest you all do the...

As most of you know the NSCRA is a South Florida based Sport Compact Drag Racing Sanction hosting all their events in Palm Beach; founded by two ex-racers committed to bringing life back into what once was the heart of our import automotive community. The downfall sometimes to always being in FL is that our summers are known for rainstorms to appear on clear sunny days; drenching everything in its path.             This Saturday at Palm Beach International Raceway was no different; what started out to be a great Saturday at the track, soon tuned into people taking cover in the nearest tent and hoping it didn’t blow away...
