  • StanceWorks | Avila Invitational

    StanceWorks | Avila Invitational

    The boys & I went on a road trip to check out StanceWorks Avila Invitational. We wanted to see cars we usually don’t see and enjoy some scenery. The day started at 4:30A.M. with 5 hour energy drinks and hot cheetos.

    Gassing up before the longass 4-hour drive.

    I rode along with Derek; he drove this low with a packed car, which actually helped with the stiff ride. It was super bouncy, but I still managed to take a nap.

  • Days Before the Meet

    Days Before the Meet

    We couldn’t contain our excitement of going to Vegas and seeing our most favorite people in the world, so Jeff, David, Jennifer, and I decided to go a day earlier than the others to be able to bask in the Vegas morning. The route to Vegas was pretty shitty for slammed cars; everyone who rode in a lowered car could attest to this. Good thing we went late at night because Jennifer was swerving left and right when we hit the construction parts on the 15. Got to see a crew of modded cars rolling pass us, who also showed up at the meet! On the next morning, Friday, we went to go eat at Sushi Bomb; David always raves about this place and how amazing the Volcano Roll is.

    David and Jeff, the happy couple. Jeff only looks sad because he didn’t get his morning wood taken care of by David before going to Sushi Bomb.

  • Journey to Vegas

    Journey to Vegas

    For the Low Ballers x Royal Origin 2 Year Anniversary, the Royal Origin gang made a trip to Las Vegas, Nevada to hang out with our lovers, the Lowballers. We basically had three separate caravans going on. Some of us left Thursday evening, some left Friday morning (including myself), and the rest left Friday afternoon. I was pretty bummed out that I wasn’t able to bring my car; I had just gotten it back from the shop after some expensiveass electrical issues. I was trying to get it ready, but there wasn’t enough time to prepare. Oh well, enough of my venting and onto some pictures…

    Instagram noob. Follow him @jimmylieu.

  • 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

    Wekfest 2012 – San Francisco

    Sunday, February 19th, 2012 was the day of the highly anticipated Wekfest 4 by Weksos Industries. This Northern California Automotive Show did not disappoint one bit. People from all over the country came to the San Francisco Bay for this event.  There were just good vibes all around. The amount of spectators at Wekfest was just crazy. We got to catch up with some old pals and we also got to meet a lot of new people! There were just good vibes all around.

  • A Day in the Bay

    A Day in the Bay

    The day before Wekfest, we decided to venture around San Francisco city. We journeyed into the city looking for some good food. We also decided to act like tourist and take pictures of everything. Our initial plan was to get some Sushirrito (a sushi burrito) , unfortunately they are closed on the weekends. We were “hella” bummed out.

    We ended eating at a random Tri-tip joint, which was pretty good.
