The Strongest of All Wekfests | Los Angeles

By  | 

I’ve said it many times before, Wekfest LA is one of the best shows to be at in Southern California. This year’s event was one for the ages as the venue was completely filled with vendors and car enthusiasts. The lines to get into the event reached all the way to the Queen Mary and to think all of this started in a parking garage in San Francisco. It gives me hope as I am packing orders from the weekend and typing up this post in a broom closet.

Derek downing some enegry drinks before the event starts. We stupidly thought we were hardcore enough to only sleep for an hour before the show started. Check out that tee tho.

Jeremy rolling in with one of the sickest SC430s state side. Strange that the Lexus SC430 is rated as one of the gayest cars to own by the internet. Jeremy still loves it though.

Jeren’s KA-T S14 on Enkei RPF1 sporting a Rocket Bunny kit, not only does it look good, but it’s fucking fast. Jeren did a 700hp ricer fly by on me when we were on the freeway.

Another Wekfest for the books, thanks to everyone who came by the booth and supported us by buying some merch! Please stop asking for discounts, buy 2 get 1 free deals, 50% same race discounts and then not buying anything because you couldn’t get a deal. Thanks!

On the way back, Shavi’s Mazda tire debeaded. His Mazda hasn’t been on the road since last October, so it was surprising that this was the only problem.

DSC06991

Took the opportunity to take some photos on the freeway with a slow shutter speed so there would be some motion blur.
