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).

Sisu stickers are here!!!!

Posted 24 May 2010 in designDestruction

sisu_stickers

FINALLY! After several weeks of designing and production, the much anticipated Sisu stickers are in stock. They only cost a dollar which means even the poorest of you can afford one or two. Plus for the first 25 orders I’ll be including a free Sisu Button. I don’t have very many of these things, so order up!

What the hell does “Sisu” mean, you ask? “Sisu” is a Finnish term loosely translated into English as strength of will, determination, perseverance, and acting rationally in the face of adversity. “Sisu” is best known within the rally racing community and the ever present need to ‘drive with guts‘.
