Next Event

Safety first.

This broke while coming out of the sweeper at ESN. Thanks to NSP for letting me borrow a wheel off their show car. And to Chad for letting me use his extra Momo wheel until I can get a new one.
Note to self: Stop buying cheap shit!

UnF-ck The Gulf

BP’s oil spill has really f–ked up the gulf. Birds, fish, dolphins & sea turtles are f–ked. Whole communities are f–ked. Together we can hold big oil accountable. Together we can unf–k the Gulf.

Ken Block’s Gymkhana THREE drops tomorrow

Ken Block’s Gymkhana THREE drops tomorrow. There doesn’t seem to be as much hype around this one. Not sure if thats a good thing or not. I hope he has better luck with the video than he did in WRC Rally Germany this past weekend. …

Cody Wellons’ S13 For Sale in Atlanta

Cody is looking to sell or trade his S13 hatch and move on to a new project. I’d really like to trade for a 1J/2J swapped SC300 with a manual transmission, although I may be interested in other RWD cars as well (350Z, GS300, etc).

Ari Vatanen. A man of huge “rocks”

Posted 28 Sep 2008 in Videos

[link to vid]

This is by far one of my favorite rally videos.
Funny thing is, I’ve been planning on posting this vid for some time now, but during a none related search I found out that SpeedHunters posted the same video a couple of months ago. They took care of the details on the driver, etc. But make sure you pay attention at the 3:01 mark. Its a scene that separates the men from the boys.

I came across this video today. I remember seeing it years ago on a big screen and was amazing. Ari Vatanen is now a European Minister of Parliament, but back in the day he was (and still is) one of top World Rally drivers. World Champion in 1981 and Paris-Dakar winner, no less than four times!

Ari also took part in the Pike’s Peaks climb and this video called ‘Climb Dance’ focuses on his amazing drive up the climb in a Peugeot 405 T16. A truly amazing video showing Ari’s skill at balancing the car almost on the edge. My favourite part has to be when he ends up driving with one hand, while shielding the sun with his other hand.
