TweetMy second autocross wasn’t exactly the best day out for me, I had a hard time trying to be fast and just didn’t make it happen. June, however, was great to me! I somehow became competitive and was running times up there with people, not at the back of the pack the entire time… I [...]

My 2nd Autocross of 2011

June 14th, 2011 · 2 Comments · Car Event, Driving, My Cars, Racing, Video

TweetYup! I have finally entered the world of video… I got myself a GoPro camera for an early birthday present. My own GoPro wasn’t my first experience with the camera, though.

My Return to Racing!

TweetOne thing I missed terribly was racing. While I’ve never been fantastic at it, I also know I have potential… And I want to develop this potential. It’s important enough to me to work on it. Plus autocrossing isn’t terribly expensive, so I can easily afford to do it. (Especially with my job.) As long [...]

Me & the 350Z

July 29th, 2009 · 1 Comment · Driving

TweetSorry, but I’m somewhat excited here… I get to do my first (albeit amateur) car review! Also unofficial, because it’s a car we happen to be babysitting… A 2003 Nismo S-tune 350Z. Our friend got deployed, and we convinced him that it was better for us to take care of her and drive her every [...]
