  • Nemo’s Garage | Grand Opening

    Nemo’s Garage | Grand Opening

    It’s that time of the year in Southern California, where the blistering heat and car meets align. This weekend took us to the Nemo’s Garage grand opening in Ontario, California. And as you will see they are new, but veterans of experience and knowledge in the automotive realm; big with the Honda platforms.

  • Wheels N Meals 3: FoodElement

    Wheels N Meals 3: FoodElement

    I always told myself, that I would stop by and check out Wheels N Meals if it was going down when I was in town. Coincidentally, the first two times occurred when I was back home, but my lazy ass didn’t want to drive out two miles to attend. I guess the 3rd time’s the charm. I was home for Spring Break and saw that it was happening, so I decided to finally check it out.

    So basically, Wheels N Meals is just a Food Truck Meet in Milpitas, CA. The food trucks come and customers show up in their cars. It’s been awhile since I’ve been to a Bay Area car meet. Wish I had my car with me to take out for a cruise. All good though! I went to the meet to eat some good food, and also ran into a old friends.

    This clean Benz from SF Wekfest (sorry, it’s blurry), still clean though!

  • Visiting the Paddock

    Visiting the Paddock

    Our Wekfest weekend began on Thursday night. The roadtrip wasn’t too bad, well for me and Minh it wasn’t. We were basically KTFO the whole time, while “Roadtrip Warrior” Shavi chauffeured us all the way there to NorCal. The following day I hit up Andy @Fatlace, and told us to slide thru the Fatlace Paddock and he gladly showed us around. We got to see all the cool stuff going around the shop/warehouse. We also got to meet a lot of the Fatlace Crew members who were very nice and welcoming. We kicked it there for awhile, took some pictures of the nice shop cars  and they even fed us some awesome BBQ! Thanks to the Fatlace crew for the hospitality!

    Here’s the “Road Trip Warrior” getting ready to bounce

  • Visiting Rotiform

    Visiting Rotiform

    So I randomly dropped by Rotiform in Westminster, California to start on one of my newer projects and discuss some plans with them. And as always it was a treat visiting the facility and seeing what was laying around. Nothing but the best here.
