So I was lucky enough to attend this taping. Big thanks to James for inviting me along, the StreetFire film crew had a blast, and shot some behind the scenes.
Of course those of you that have been following this blog know that my GT-R participated in one fo the shoot outs. I’m looking forward to that one being shown soon so I can really talk about the times.
I hate that I missed this race this year….oe of the sucky things about living in LA is being so far away from Road Atlanta.
Maybe next year I’ll be able to take some time off and go to the race again.
So in the course of my job I watch A LOT of drag race videos, so I think this is the one area I have some small shred of authority…..and I have to say this is the prettiest Drag Race video I’ve seen yet. Know of one better? Then please give me a link, I want to see it.
I had a ton of fun at this event (big thank you to Torque for organizing this), and it looks like Jonathan finally took the wraps off the teaser video as a prelude of what is to come. Of course they cut out the lovely Miss Torque, my personal favorite, to see more of her, check out the Gallery below.
Looks like the series is off to a good start…..surprised that the New M3 lost to the PDK 911S though.
I love these old second generation Trans Ams, but this one is a 147mph in the Qtr mile monster.
Graeme Wight Junior’s V10 Predator Fire at Doune
This car is insane, I would love to see this thing run in person.
Pretty impressive video made all the more compelling by the fact it was shot on a Canon HF10 consumer cam corder. Goes to show it’s 20% the tool and 80% the artist…but isn’t that allways the case?
I remember the very first Corvette I ever saw. It was a Forrest Green Corvette C3 parked in front of my elementary school. My teacher was dating some playboy with the car and asked me to get some papers out of it, and I recall I couldn’t figure out how to open the door with it’s Disco flush door handles. Well, now I have disco-flush door handles on my GT-R, but I still remember that first vette, I saw fondly. This Corvette is a bit more extreme than that, but the super wide fenders and 15″ 345 tires are so fucking metal, how can you not love this car?
