BMW

I love doing these 'Pictures with attitude' aka rad picture Theme Tuesdays because it gives me a chance to let my automotive A.D.D. run wild. The car hobby is a big one and there is no fun in only enjoying select parts of it all the time.

Don't you hate when you come across one image of a car and can't find anymore? Because that's the case with this e30 on Work Emotions (not CR Kai as explained here). No matter how much I search I keep coming across the same old ass picture. Maybe it's just me and perhaps I suck at using Google but I need more!

I've noticed quite a bit of user uploads to the Facebook fan page lately, in addition to new users in general, so I felt that a new readers rides post was in order. I always love seeing what you guys are up to as it gives me an idea of what kind of things I should post more and less of as well as gives me ideas for my own car.

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.

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.

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.

Even though this show was just last weekend with the way the weather has changed (and the amount of time it's taken me to post all of the parts) it seems like so long ago. Most of the cars in today's coverage are probably stored away by now or will soon be in winter mode so here is a look at one of the last show and shines of the season.

As I've mentioned the 2010 CSCS Finale was the first time I had been to Cayuga and the weather had fully cooperated which meant that the track saw a lot of fast action all day. Personally the track action is the main reason I make the drive out to CSCS as it's an added bonus on top of the show and shine that I can't take in at your average show.

Yesterday I mentioned that the 2010 CSCS finale had an absolutely stellar turnout, the best of any CSCS I had attended personally. There were cars everywhere, on the track, in the pits, and all over the visitor parking, it seemed like everyone and there mom was out at Cayuga. Today I have 30 plus photos of what I saw off the track and away from the show and shine, few unique/rarity's here.

Originally this Theme Tuesday was just going to be low cars having trouble getting over steep grades which lead to a wheel being hung in the air. However after looking at (and taking) photos of cars getting up on three wheels while cornering I decided to combine both ways of three wheeling into this Theme Tuesday.

In between the qualifying runs and the finals at DMCC I took some time to quickly pass through the show and shine/pit area so it only makes sense that the coverage of said show and shine appears between the qualifying coverage and finals coverage. In hindsight it was free to enter the show and shine so I should have thrown my car in for kicks, next year...
