Sometimes opportunities come by chance, and some come by knowing the right people. For Chris Basselgia, I’m not sure how he got the chance to compete in this year’s Scion FR-S Tuner Challenge, but for me, I had the opportunity to shoot this Minty FReSh beast by knowing the right people.

As the Texas guys are just now starting to roll into Wek’Fest TX in Austin this morning, I had just come back from an interesting day in Ocean City, MD, home of H2Oi, the nation’s largest VW/Audi meet. I’m just gonna post up a few photos to tide you guys over (story of my life, I know).
This guy seemed genuinely surprised I was taking his picture while standing in the middle of the street.
You're gonna see a lot of Japanese cars from my upcoming coverage btw.
Super clean and very sexy

So I grabbed Christopher with me and drove 6 hours away to VIR in Virginia yesterday to catch some ALMS racing. Just wanted to drop a few photos of what’s to come! (I’m seriously backed up, I know)
Oh geebus, I love the BMW Motorsports M's.
I found a MaydayGarage fan that works on the Patron Ferrari 458! SWEET
VIR has a beautiful venue

Last year, I attended the inaugural Baltimore Grand Prix in Baltimore, MD. It was my first time visiting Maryland, and one year later, here I am on the East coast. Unfortunately I wasn’t able to attend this year’s event in Downtown Baltimore, but I did get the chance to recruit a good friend and fellow blogger/photographer, Christopher Drinkuth of Primo-Lifestyle, a blog dedicated to things going on around Virginia and primarily focuses on the Euro tuning world. Thankfully, Chris isn’t such a bad shot, and the following photos are all Chris.
I don’t like making blog entries on an event I was not present at, so instead, we’ll let Chris’ photos do the storytelling.

It’s 2pm, and I just woke up from this weekend’s all nighters. I did a quick edit on a few photos and I’m going right back to sleep. zzZZzzzZZzzzz
I'm pretty sure this was one of the best cars there at Wek'Fest

I’m sitting around waiting for the time to pass, and even though the sun never came out, I got a few decent photos, but more importantly, I got a chance to catch up with a few friends! Here’s a couple of snaps to give you an idea.
I absolutely loved these two Luxury/Track inspired sedans
This F430 even had a system in the back! Right under the motor
