Sticker Design

I'm no expert in photo shop but I would like to generate a graphic design for the car using my sponsors logo's.

Here is a good side shot. Please let me know if you have any ideas!! :D

















Here is a car I think looks pretty awesome:


















Here is my old grafix package, which I didn't really like:


















The number placard is required on the door.

Official CoupesFAIL Wallpaper!

Here is a wallpaper I made from Sunday's Fun. Click the Image to bring up full size version then right click and "save as". Yes, I know a Mustang weaseled his way in but with 460hp and a kick ass owner I felt obligated :P

Enjoy!

Caught on Film?

It seem's I was caught on film a couple weekends ago when I took the X90 out to a local "practice" meet to give the car a good shake down and just figure her out and what she may need. Body roll, lack of power, heat soaking all became apparent. Although I did get some good entries keep in mind that this is my FIRST time drifting this car. The car is light years ahead of my last and yet so far behind at the same time. I can't wait to get her up to par as she will be a force to be reckoned with. Also check out Harry tearing it up. He's come along way. Shows you can teach an old dog new tricks ;) MUCH <3

Reflecting on Red Bull

With all the drifting season's coming to a close and Pro Qualifiers coming up quick I've been reflecting on Pro-Am Nationals @ Red Bull's World Drifting Championship in Long Beach. It was probably the most fun and intense experience I've ever had drifting. Surrounded by some of the best drifters in the world. Running a course set up to be one of the fastest and most dangerous ever imagined. Over all the whole experience was top notch. I had many very good friends and sponsors attend with me, even my father showed up. Despite the fact that it didn't pan out due to a very hard wall hit from faulty steering components, I still had the most fun, most exzillerating weekend of my life. To all those who qualified or will be trying again this year: Watch out I'll be back in full force and you'll see the entry speed and angle I was attempting at Red Bull will be repeated, this time not to be thwarted by mechanical failures.

Photoshoot

Big thanks to Malcolm for taking these pictures! Check out his MySpace page
And of course my lovely Gail, who did her thing :D I'm a lucky guy.

Right after the shoot I backed my car into a grassy spot that have a 2 ft deep hole hidden inside! After trying for an hour to get the car out I finally called J-Rat to help!

Solid is always better then flasid.

Got a full day in of working on the car and helping my buddy Krayton who took most of the snaps. Pretty good if I must say so. Thats his car in the background :D

Just finished up the test arms for the JZX90/81 chassis. 1x0.120 DOM w/ Forged/Carbon Kevlar lined rod ends! A full set goes for $600 if anyone else wants some!

Also Test fit my old 18x12's but decided I don't want to go that aggressive with this build. I'm trying for a cleaner look:

Don't mind the ride height, just got done working on the car and the suspension had not settled yet and it's very dirty from all the rains lately.

Also decided on aero:
