Blowing Shit Up with New MaydayGarage Stickers!
Today we are introducing our newest batch of one-off stickers!
First up is a sticker I hold dear to my heart, as I am a huge Back to the Future movie fan. 2010 marks the 25th anniversary of this epic movie, so to celebrate, we are debuting our BTTF MaydayGarage sticker in a run of only 50 stickers and will be available at the 512 Project this Saturday!
Speaking of the 512 Project, don't forget that we are hosting this year's Mayday Capital Run, a twin caravan leaving from both Dallas and Houston Saturday morning to the state's capital, Austin, TX. To commemorate this year's run, we have a limited edition Mayday Capital Run sticker for both our Dallas and Houston legs!
These stickers will be FREE for the FIRST 50 participants (cars) on each leg Saturday morning (after you fill out our waiver form), after that there will be no more!
We also have one more sticker.
I cannot show this sticker online as it is very controversial, and extremely limited. We will be handing out these prototype stickers to a select few at Project 512, so look out for them! I guaran-fucking-tee that these stickers will make you laugh, but I'm not going to spoil it here.
Stay tuned tomorrow as we will be doing some live blogging for those of you that couldn't make the event! Follow us also on Twitter @MaydayJohnP @MaydayDavidD and also on our Facebook Fan page!

Smoky Does Houston: Top Secret Dyno Tuning Day 3.

Gangster Stuff: Greddy 8-Piston BBK for Nissan 370Z from Top Secret Japan
So this past weekend I was rummaging about town and I came across this "top secret" tuner's house that was hidden in a nook on the west end of town. Well, I wouldn't say secret, but you get what I am saying. I love it when people build crazy ass rides out of the garage of their homes. This “location” in particular is owned by a Japanese gent who just so happens to be part of the Mayday Collective and an associate of our pals over at Planet Zero. When we stopped by the house this past weekend a few parts had just flown in from Japan, one of which was a set of Greddy 8 piston BBK for the 370z as well as the 6 piston rear from TOP SECRET Japan. Featured here is the front 8 piston with disk. Continue on for more pictures, it really doesn’t get much sexier than this.

Wek-Fest 2010: A Preview
This past weekend we ventured out to California to check out Wek-Fest in Japantown, San Francisco. When we heard that this show consisted of Nor-Cal’s finest, we really did not know what to expect, the anxiety was killing us the whole way to San Fran. With us being from Houston all we could hope for was what has come to us in blog features or what hits the magazine stands. We were sure in for a surprise though, not only were expectations met, but they were surpassed. These crews rolled out hard, and I sure as hell cannot remember the last time a tuner show I went to had that level of energy, it was damn impressive.
