Time Attack Motoring
The Super Lap Battle event has been the grand finale of the time attack season in the U.S. since its inauguration in 2004. Every year since then, Buttonwillow has played host to this fall classic that brings in some of the best time attackers from near and afar. This year was no different as 80+... Continue Reading →
Sometimes going to local meets can have its rewards and surprises, which was the case at the Inspire USA 7 Year Anniversary. At first I only decided to check out the meet because I wanted to get some better photos of the Route KS Madonna NSX that was being stored at the Inspire USA facility.... Continue Reading →
With social media in full fledge these days, it's gotten pretty easy to put names and faces to cars without even meeting the owner in person. This is the case with Michael Mao and his 1992 Route KS Madonna NSX. I remember he had an AP1 S2000 on CCW Classics which preceded the current Honda...... Continue Reading →
It's been a few months since I first saw the System Motorsports FRS at Wekfest SJ, so it was nice to see it again at the recent Bay Area Subaru Meet event held at the San Jose Municipal Stadium. One of the things that I love most about this car is its minimalistic approach on... Continue Reading →
Having lived in the Bay Area for a good 5 or so years now, there are builds that I've grown accustom to seeing over this period of time whether it's at local shows, at the track, or just roaming around on the streets. Some of these builds come and go, and some just stay relatively... Continue Reading →
I was browsing the parking lot of San Jose Municipal Stadium this past Sunday during the annual Bay Area Subaru Meet where I stumbled upon a little gem. When I saw this Nissan A31 Cefiro, I felt like I was transported to Japan because this is the stuff you see roaming the streets there. For... Continue Reading →
Technically, the Hoonigan M3 didn't compete in GTA Pro Am but rather the Speed District event that was held on the same days. But..... since Global Time Attack actually have a name to their event, I'm just gonna go with that for the title. Anyways, at first I didn't plan on doing a separate post... Continue Reading →
I can't believe it's been almost half a year since I've covered a time attack event, but it was absolutely refreshing to be out at Buttonwillow again for round 3 of the GTA Pro Am series. Actually, "refreshing" is probably bad word choice because it was anything but refreshing out there in triple digit weather........ Continue Reading →
Lately I've been making it a habit to shoot a few more photos of cars that really caught my eyes at shows like Wekfest to (sort of) showcase them on the site. If you've been following the site or my social media, then you would know that I had high praises for my last Wekfest... Continue Reading →
After going through all the photos from Wekfest Seattle, I realize I almost have a full on coverage instead of just my favorites from the show... this is definitely out of the norm but I guess I really enjoyed this show THAT much. One of the things that I loved most about the show was... Continue Reading →
I've always thought of Seattle as this gloomy and wet city, one that I'd probably never see myself living in, but last weekend kind of changed my mind a bit. I say this because I actually did some sight-seeing and grubbing with the girlfriend who tagged along with me on this trip, and let me... Continue Reading →
It's been a slow couple of months for me as far as attending automotive events are concerned, so that means the site has been pretty quiet as well. I did attend a little NorCal 86 gathering about a week ago, but there wasn't enough quality cars to justify a post about it... although I did... Continue Reading →
After visiting Pro Shop Fukuoh, I had originally decide to hop over to Kyoto to do a bit more exploring, but I realized at the last minute that I was pretty close to Suzuka, so I ended up hopping on the local train to pay a visit to the renown tuning house, Esprit. Situated within... Continue Reading →
Attack Tsukuba was the catalyst for my last visit to Japan but like with all my trips to Japan, shop visits also holds a great deal of importance. On my previous two visits, I've limited my checklist to shops surrounding the greater Tokyo area, but as I've grown accustomed to the Japanese public transportation system,... Continue Reading →
In the past year and a half or so, I've been making a checklist of car shops that I wanted to visit in Japan for every trip that I made there. Some are more well known than others but each have their unique sense of originality and aura. I've said in the past that I... Continue Reading →
For many years past, I've always gone down to Buttonwillow during November for the annual Super Lap Battle and the finale to the race season. This year, I've decided to cover as much time attack events as I physically can, so I made the decision to make the trek down for the season opener. One... Continue Reading →
I gotta be honest, it's been a long while since I've been excited to attend a North American time attack event, but there were a few cars that I was pretty eager to see compete at Buttonwillow for the GTA season opener. One of these was the Vibrant Performance, or PZ Tuning Honda Civic, or... Continue Reading →
