OTWeb: Nom15 S15 Render Circa 2006

By
February 15, 2010

Well, after catching a glimpse of a particular Army Green S15 that has been floating around the internet for a stint, I couldn’t put my mind to what the car reminded me of. Army green, aggressive front…hmm..then sure enough it clicked. A few years ago I had found this bad ass rendering of a Silvia S15 on Deviant Art, pretty sweet job too if I say so myself. Army Green TE-37s, aggressive stance and awesome paint with some Falken Love. I think that this rendering was an inspiration for the 2nd car below, what do you think?

Random Snap: The Things We Do To Get a Good Shot.

By

Yeah.

So our buddy J.Evins came along with us to help shoot a car this past weekend, and as a photographer, he knows that when it comes to taking photos, sometimes you gotta get creative. Hell, I know this too. I didn’t want to run to my car and get a proper tripod to shoot with, instead, my lazy ass had a makeshift tripod.

Behold, the oil drum tripod!

This is me as a poor photographer.

Touche, J.Evins, touche.

If you guys don’t already know, there is a group of hardcore fitment kings named Swang ‘N’ Bang. If you are ever in Texas, and you see a group of super slammed, tucked, stretched and poking cars, you can bet your sweet ass it’s Swang ‘N’ Bang. I was on their blog site, and this picture just made me chuckle.

Event Coverage: N.S.T. 5th Anniversary Drift Competition & Car Show Part 1.

By
February 3, 2010

This past sunday, the good folks over at NonStopTuning, a.k.a. NST, celebrated their illustrious 5 year anniversary in La Marque, TX with over one thousand close friends and family! While some businesses celebrate with cheaply made cake and cheesy party hats, NST took it a few steps further by holding a drift competition and car show held at Gulf Greyhound Park just south of Houston. Despite the bitter forty degree weather, that didn’t seem to stop the hundreds of spectators from (as JohnP so eloquently put it) getting their drift fix. Luckily, there wasn’t any disappointment from the drifters as they put on their multiple layers of clothing and kept their heads warm in their helmets.
