With Driven in the books the 2013 show season is now “officially” underway in Calgary. Eager to get old man winter out the door this years driven took place a little earlier than last year which meant a few people had to scramble to get their cars ready for the show.
However 250+ cars ended up making it to the Calgary Oval even with the accelerated timeline and MikeĀ once againĀ did a great job of capturing the show in the artistic way only he can.

Mike previously took some photos of this Mazda at the dropsciles sideshow and it’s still one of most unique minitruck builds I have seen out of CalgaryThis one, which is more traditionally done, is also pretty rad. Timeless lookHats off to whoever built both of these

BMW
