A Midnight Run: Mayday Mikeyy Turbocharges his Daily.

Some of you out there might know Mikeyy from his Gunmetal Kouki 240sx that has been on Hellaflush, Stanceworks, and a few other offset inspired websites. The car is clean, but is taking a break. Why, you ask? Well, the answer is in his new project, his hella quick turbo daily civic. Check the video below.

Clean, but nothing compared to the Beast that is his Daily.

A hustler for the street, Mikeyy is shooting for 450 – 500 whp. Good enough for a daily I suppose…

Monster!

Event Coverage: Fabricated Motorsports’ The Mexican Standoff.

A Mexican standoff is a slang term defined as a stalemate or impasse, a confrontation that neither side can forseeably win. In popular culture, the Mexican standoff is usually portrayed as three or more opponents with guns drawn and ready, creating a tense situation. Neither side is willing to shoot for fear of being shot in return, yet neither side wants to relinquish its weapons for fear that its opponents will shoot them. This situation forces the participants to resolve the situation either by diplomacy, surrender, or a pre-emptive strike.

Everything IS bigger in Texas. That includes Carbon wings.

Nostalgic Wednesdays: Initial D

Oh yes I did.  Initial D, the cartoon that literally introduced the ricers of the late 90’s and early 2000’s with the Japanese street past time of drifting by introducing us to Fujiwara Takumi and his bad ass Tofu carrying 4AG powered AE-86. Most will not admit that their first experience with drifting in the 90’s came from this cartoon, but in reality it was.  At the time of its release, most of us were worried about the axles that we were braking during a drag race and not about how to get our cars sideways, but man did this change as everyone started to move from drag to drift through the 2000’s.

Event Coverage Preview: The Mexican Standoff.

As I’m writing this on my way back from Mineral Wells, TX in DFan’s comfy 4 door civic, I can’t help but think how dedicated a lot of Texas Drifters are. I bitch and moan about a 5 hour drive to a sleepy town that nobody has heard of, but these guys not only make that same drive, but they also wrench on their cars all the way up to the last minute for these drift events held by Fabricated Motorsports. These guys are pretty serious when it comes to making these events, and this event was no different.
