Drift Union: Night Moves

Saw this over at Full Lock and had to give it some love because not only did I like the teaser but, Logan and Shawn are great guys with awesome cars who have been making quite a name for themselves on the internet the past year or so with their driving ability. They are working on there 2010 year end video and this is their latest trailer, I have also included the previous trailers in this post as well.

Theme Tuesdays: MKI Golfs

After doing MKII Golf's last week it became pretty apparent that there are quite a few MKI fans that check out the site. So to follow up I decided a collection of MKI's was in order, the rest of the generations have been added to the to do list as well so don't fret MKIII and on drivers 🙂

Bagged e30 Touring

Today is a holiday (Thanksgiving) here in Canada so I figured I should make the best of it and double up on the posts, and since I already posted one bagged BMW today why not another? I spotted this bagged e30 touring on a forum a couple of months ago and was recently stumbled upon it again and remembered how much I liked it. Bagged e30s are still pretty uncommon so do see someone do this to a touring, and keep it clean, is a real treat.

Unavoidable

I told myself I wasn't going to write about the latest version of this car. Not because I don't like it, but because Speedhunters did it, Fatlace did it, and even Jalopnik did it. This post has sat as a draft for about two weeks while I tried to decide if my input was at all necessary. After reading a comment calling this car 'nothing more than a POS' in a thread titled 'How much time did this guy waste' I found myself coming back because while a lot of people love the car, a vast number of people hate it and while everyone is entitled to their own opinion many are missing the point.

WTF Friday: And the winner is….

Before I get into posting this weeks WTF Friday content as promised I have the results of the first ever Stance Is Everything reader appreciation sticker give away. First and foremost a big thanks to everyone who took the time to comment/enter the contest. I was blown away by the amount of people who commented, and the great things you guys and girls said about the blog even though a simple "do want" would have worked to enter.

Super clean 180sx

As the 2010 GTA event season comes to a close you are going to start seeing a lot of cars that have been on my hard drive for the past few months, today I've got a super clean Nissan 180sx. It's pretty rare to see one this clean since a great number of them end up in the hands of drifters, and while it's never bad to see a car used and abused on the track, it's also nice to see one that the owner has kept spit shined.

Sayonara Summer Video

Here's a quick video by Rough Draft / Backstage (same guys behind this video) of Stretch & Poke 3: Sayonara Summer. Be sure to watch all the way through for the teaser at the end. Chu is getting really good at this really fast!

Event Coverage: S&P 3 – Sayonara Summer

On Sunday October 3rd in odd, but appropriate, weather the GTA car community said Sayonara to Summer with an event put on by the good people at Stretch and Poke. When I showed up (late) some of cars had come and gone but from the coverage I have seen on the Scraped Crusaders and courtesy of Gawa on JDMR the event was a great success.

Theme Tuesday: MKII Golfs

I was over on Supermade last night looking at all the nice Volkswagens he posts when it hit my like a brick that I had yet do do a Theme Tuesday dedicated solely to the MKII Golf. I can't believe it's taken me this long, these cars a staple of the low lifestyle and are always at shows and meets.

Event Coverage CSCS 2011: Round III

After two back to back events with flawless weather the skies turned a troubling gray for Sundays round three CSCS festivities, Of course CSCS attendees are used to mother nature pulling these shenanigans and made the trek out to Toronto Motorsports Park anyway. Personally I had my doubts in the morning but thankfully as soon as I arrived the worst of the weather seemed to have pass which meant there was a lot for me to check out and shoot all day at TMP.

My friend and BMX rider Darcy Peters --mentioned in the last Rider Owned Theme Tuesday-- was just featured in a video by Red Van...

WTF Friday: Mixed Race

I can honestly say this isn't a swap I ever expected to come across. While I've seen a handful of Japanese power plants in American cars (and vice versa) I never expected to see one in a traditionally styled high boy roadster. However Solo from Go with Solo changed that with his blog post yesterday. He spotted this bright yellow American/Japanese union at the recent Nashville nationals and while incredibly unorthodox the motor actually seems right at home.

Every lowered car owners worst nightmare

I have been stuck on a few roads where the grades have suddenly changed (this morning for example) and have had to drive very slowly to avoid scraping but I have no clue what I would do in a situation like this. Every choice involves damage.

Mini Feature: Andrew’s Next Mod Genesis

Hyundai surprised a lot of people when they released the Genesis being a company with no prior sports car platform to speak of unless you make the stretch to include the Tiburon. In 2009 it was tough to say how the car would do in regards to initial sales and aftermarket acceptance/support, however about a year or so after initial release it's fairly safe to say that the Genesis has been well received.
