Theme Tuesdays: When in doubt, BBS

DaveT -
Wasn't really sure what to run this week and I didn't have a whole lot of uniformity to the the cars living on my hard drive so I decided to go with a solution that normally always works: BBS wheels and a healthy drop. Classic BBS mesh wheels will never be played out in my eyes nor will LMs. However I did try and toss a few other BBS designs in there to mix things up a bit.

Event Coverage: Krown Lakeshore Show & Shine

DaveT -
Before Stretch and Poke I swung by the Krown Lake Shore Charity Show & Shine put on by a friend of mine and fellow Toronto Mazda 3 member. The show was family run and family focused so it had a real positive vibe to it, and it's always great to see automotive enthusiasts getting behind Sick Kids Hospital as they do incredible things (I am living proof).

Event Coverage: S&P May 29th 2011: Part 1

DaveT -
Yesterday was the first Stretch and Poke! meet of the year and even though leading up to the event the weather forecast looked terrible (to put it nicely) somehow the thunderstorms held out all day and the weather was fantastic which lead to around 150 cars coming out. The meet was my first chance to see a lot of local cars and familiar faces from last year and lots of people have stepped it up for 2011 so I am really looking forward to the rest of the year. Here are some of the Euros from S&P 2010 meet number 1.

WTF Friday: Too much?

DaveT -
One thing that always bugged me about the show Family Matters (aside from the obvious) was the fact that in the intro Eddie (the son) was working on a car that never once appeared in any episodes I watched. In fact the only cars that ever saw much screen time in my experience was Frank's PD cruiser and Urkel's Iseatta, talk about real bait and switch.

Fat and Flush: Triumphant

DaveT -
Triumph is synonymous with quite a few great things: a song, a Canadian rock brand, a motorcycle manufacturer and finally the most relevant to this blog a British car manufacturer. I've been looking for something to post in the fat and flush category for awhile and this TR6 is the perfect fit. This car looks like it was made to live in corners, both on the racetrack and on winding mountain roads.

How to Fully Insure a Modified Daily Driven Vehicle

DaveT -
Quite some time ago Miles from carinsurancecomparison.org contacted me about a writing a guest blog here on Stance Is Everything. Typically there isn't a lot of guest blogging that goes on around here but I decided in this case it might be good to hear from an insurance insider exactly how we can go about insuring our modified cars and still get proper coverage. I know a lot of us are on the 'they didn't ask so I didn't tell' type of policy.

Bus-ted

DaveT -
Not too long after I started this automotive blogging thing I made a few connections with other open minded car enthusiasts like myself. Noah at Hatch Life was one of these enthusiasts (along with Phil, Ant, Logan, and more). He is a car guy first and a Honda enthusiast second. His enthusiasm for all sorts of automobiles of a variety of different styles really knows no bounds (sound familiar?) and though other priorities took him away from blogging for a bit he's back up to his old tricks now and recently posted this bus that might be too good to be true.

Theme Tuesdays: Opels

DaveT -
I had thought about doing a favorites Theme Tuesday on cars from either the recent Eibach event or Hella Flush 8 in Venice Beach but I realized that you have probably all seen those same cars all weekend so I decided to go in a completely different route. I told Ollie I had this in mind last week and like always he came through with a bunch of awesome pics to go with the ones I had saved. So together we came up with this fairly robust collection of sick Opels (/Vauxhall).

Emotionally attatched

DaveT -
I saw this Mazda 3 on Work Emotion CR-Kai's a few weeks back and it really reminded me why I was so heavily considering these wheels along with RPF-1s. The look really suits the Mazda 3 and the color these have been powder coated really helps them stand out among the many black and white versions that are floating around.

WTF Friday: Back To The Future

DaveT - 4
On the silver screen DeLoreans (Doc Brown's anyway) are a mechanical marvel worth turning into a time machine powered by stolen plutonium. In reality by the time they finished jumping through all the hoops required to go from idea to production vehicle they ended up as stainless steel disappointments.

Theme Tuesdays: Putting In Work

The concept of theme Tuesdays here on Stance Is Everything is simple, every Tuesday I pick a theme and post a collection of vehicles with that theme that meet the stance criteria (modified suspension that fit the vehicles overall theme). This weeks theme Tuesday topic is: Putting In work.
