Sunday’s Refined: Curated Sunday Special

I have no problem admitting that I’ve become a bit more guarded with my time. A lot of my recent event coverage reflects that. These...

Event Coverage: ’10 Maxbimmer Midnight Cruise

Keven and I headed out to the meeting spot for 2010 Maxbimmer midnight cruise on Friday night and while we didn't go on the cruise itself from what I read it went off without incident which is great because a whirly bird was floating above the meeting spot at about 11:30. There is always a great variety of cars at this spot (as it's a meeting spot for other clubs as well) so here are some of the photos I took while Keven got a chance to catch up with some old faces.

WTF Friday: Jet ski fail

Jet ski's are a lot of fun, provided you don't flip them in the middle of the lake and have to get towed by a fishing boat back in to fix it, but getting them to and from the lake can be a bit of a challenge. Getting it out of a lake becomes more of challenge if you don't have a proper trailer to do so. These two guys almost had a method worked out to but then mother nature, gravity, and common sense took over which resulted in a nice little fail.

Purpose built Miatas

As much as I love slammed Miatas today's collection of Mazda roadsters caught my eye because judging by the way these cars are set up it's safe to assume that they do a lot more than hard parking and actually take these cars out to the track. If your building a car to tear up your local track and the ride height you need for that leaves you with some fender gap that's alright by me. Just go fast to make up for it, real fast.

Featured Ride: Sams 350Z

Growing up one common rule among children is that they all have at least one toy car, next time you're around kids take a look around and you'll see at least one happy youngster taking their favorite toy car through its paces in their own little imaginary track. Those of us who grow to become car enthusiasts trade in our toy cars for one we can drive and our imaginary track becomes real world terrain. Sam, the owner of today’s featured ride, is an enthusiast who is no longer doing laps in his mind, these days Sam cruises the streets in his low, flush, 350z fittingly plated ‘JDM Toy’.

Theme Tuesdays: Classy Car Models Part 2

Last time I did a 'classy model' Theme Tuesday it went over a lot better than I thought it would. Really I shouldn't have been surprised. Guys like cars, and guys like girls it's natural. But girls also like cars, but they often do not like car show models. What girls do like (generally and in addition to cars) are clothes and style, thus classy car models give the female readers something to enjoy as well. This way everyone wins! Except me, the screening process for this is hell on my eyes 😛

F20/AE86 and SR20E30 drift builds are complete

The drift/track/fun season is well underway here in the Toronto area, so it only makes sense that both of the local heart transplant builds that I, and you by association, have been following are complete and running around burning up tires. Big props to Drift Posse/Cyrious Productions/Cyrious fab and Union Auto Club for seeing these builds through to the end and getting them running for this season.

WTF Friday: Want a truck? Make your own.

I'm sure we have all seen something like this before, someone takes a car with rear end damage and instead of getting it repaired traditionally (or just scraping the thing) the make some sort of El Camino bastard child. I can't really imagine how you go about getting these things insured since they would probably crumple like a ball of paper in an accident, and I doubt 2 of the 3 posted today go down the street straight, but hey its DIY?

IND Atlantis M3

I saw this beast of an M3 on bikeguide.org first and it really took me by surprise since normally I don't really feel much either way about this model m3. I was only further impressed by this car when I found the build on build-threads.com. Any company looking to do a big budget build should take inspiration from IND because this is how it's done right. None of that gaudy over the top chock full of decal nonsense, keep it clean.

Saab 9-2X Aero For Sale

I am a bad friend, I've been meaning to post contributing photographer, aspiring comedian, and good friend Keven Soldo's car for sale for awhile now and kept forgetting. He is selling his clean imported Saab 9-2x and if you don't know what this car is, it's basically a Subaru in Saab skin. Check the bottom of this post to see what it could look like with a drop and some wheels.
