headin' up the coast

well with work cutting hours. and my car being down lately. its time to head out of this town for a little R & R. so me and silvia are heading up the coast today into tomorrow to visit our friends maddie and jesse in SLO. needless to say. tonight is gonna be epic. I'm eagerly awaiting also to see the scenery on the way up. its always quite a sight. So after I have my interview today at carmax which I hope I get so I can get my car back out on the track (more money). I'm out of this place. pics to come when I get back. good day.

been awhile since i've been on here. just got transfered to a closer vons so hopefully i'll be pocketing more moneys so I can get back out to the track. if my car doesn't keep breaking. but for now. with rain. i will keep doing this. just not to this extreme

a well deserved update

nothing really too exciting going on right now as I'm trying to find balance in finances and save the race compound IE the home/shop. my family is currently under going some hardships and i'm just praying we pull out of them. as for car life. 50 is still having carb issues. spits and sputters. dies occasionally. i'll have to tear into her one of these days. taco needs a well deserved brake upgrade. new front end LT kit due to my ball joints cracking and brakes. no money to do that. 240 is fine til my clutch desides to go out. but needs new tires all around due to my wheel change (pics below). I also took a trip recently with my passenger seat driver. it was good to get out of the same stuff to recharge my batteries. see some different scenery. it was exactly what I needed.







she made the trip all worth it

day offfff

= plan how to get this m45 I've been looking at in my life. decided prolly the best way is too dump the truck on the dealership. take a loss. hopefully get like 13,000 for it. then pick up the m45. and pay off some bills. but at least I'll be happy in the end. best case scenareo. lets just see if this all goes down

also picked up the most thug girl i've ever met from work. picked up some in n out. and ended up at the broooooocean. then went off to the wonderful land of yogurt. loved the weather/atmosphere of today, and the chill vibe of doing nothing but randomness felt so relaxing and perfect.

fun car life

has been slow lately. been barely scraping by with bills and such, here are the status of both the fun cars

240 is holding together. survived another track day. may need to be either replacing the clutch soon and or throwout bearing. but whenever I release the clutch pedal something is making noise down below, this is intermitently though so we'll wait til it happens everytime.





I also decided to bump up tire sizes to a 225 40. it sits super flush now and I can get a little more grip. I'd have to say I'm happy with the results. the fronts however are rubbing pretty bad against the fender wells whenever I hit large bumps. so I'll have to address that soon.



also new sticker acquired




as for my 50

its been sitting due to my gas tank leaking more. and me and my dad re did the exhaust system in it but it decided to break a hangar. so we'll have to address that soon also



the new exhaust location

WSIR

first time running balcony. it was ok. everyone who drove my car says my car is retarded. it understeers when it wants, gets stupid bumpsteer when it wants. thats my high maintanence drama queen for you though. chuck did get a handle of her though lol. thanks to j shea for filming. even though he didn't get my best runs.



pit pic

why i love the sport so much

everything, every aspect in this vid is just so rad.

drifting owns me

a morning cruise to breakfast before work

so me my dad and his girlfriend nicci decided to grab a bite to eat to spend some time together since I've been working so much lately on the weekends. I have to say this was nice since we hardly ever talk since are schedules never give us time to do so.

before we left



on the way there



the food was sooo good. I forgot to bring my camera when we sat down. bassically I just got two eggs with hashbrowns and toast. yeah I know. simple right? but they sure taste better at a restuarant rather then making them at home.

some pics before we left.



it would be so awsome to drift this

these bros

definately do it right

palm springs here we come

me and teddy went on a little adventure today to go see a possible trade for his hatch. needless to say. we were a bit dissapointed.

heat makes you stupid



onward... we saw a pretty crazy accident on the way



poor van driver. hoped he was alright

ran into some tuners as well. I didn't get any shots of the super ricey ones though. I think it was take your ricer out car day





that wagon was actually pretty cool. and somewhat flush


onward once again. we made it to the lovely palm springs. there is seriously nothing there. its so empty and dead





well it was about lunch time and we saw a sonic so we decided to hardpark it up. this bro is so cool.







teddys hatch is so clean and street style. I love it. but whenever I think of my car being like that I just can't get myself to do it. we'll see when its time to redo mine





so onward yet again. the dude who was supposed to show us the car. forgot the keys too it. so he picked us up. grabbed the keys. then went to his work where the car was stored

and here it is. the elegant royal presidente.... or so we thought









fail steering wheel lol



now. the car as a whole was in ok shape. the sketchy things were. it had a bad battery. but even so it would've still ran after getting jumped. alternator maybe? the interior had some trim fit issues. and some damage to the leather. now the bothersom parts.. the car is on an oem hydro system to raise and lower it. it wasn't working at first after the guy spent like five mins fiddling with it for god knows why. also the car wasn't driveable... thats right. the passenger front unit had a leak causing it not to be engaged which means no lift. how is teddy supposed to get around day to day with this problem. and onto the even funnier thing. teddy opened the sunroof and we though oh this is cool. when we go to shut it. it got stuck lol. so ultimately the car was not in a daily shape. it didn't even have the front end on it. so it would ultimately take some work and money to get it going. I think teddy has made the decision to keep his red beauty.

to home we go

ok. so I found this right now..

and I just had to post it up before I went to sleep

no bags here. just all drop. soo wicked

blah blah blah

chill day off from work. its weird. when I know I'm gonna be off. I feel like "dang i'm gonna get so much done. I'll do this this and that." of course.. that never really happens lol. it was a chill day today. woke up did the double S. not tripple as I didn't shave today. my dad made some bomb burritos as he decided to stay home as well. After that we took princess jessica to work at her second home nordstrom. Then from there we headed over to pegasus hobbies in montclair. that place is so sweet for the hobby enthusiest. I was going to pick up a model but this week blows cause I'm barely making my bills so i gotta chill out with the spending, even though I want a million things. After that we went and looked at some tools to buy in the future which include another angle grinder, a new jack, a welder, and much much more. everything is so cheap there. I love it. After that we headed back to the "race facility" as my dad calls it. and I decided why not get the 240 over here finally. since it has been stuck at my moms since the clutch went out. so I called up Jans towing. met them there. and here it is now. in my driveway. I guess I did get quite a few things accomplished today. no pictures though for all you picture viewers though. I did find this cool pic though. Goodnight all.

cycling life

got the purp' up and running. went on my first actual ride yesterday and it kicked my butt. I didn't realize how out of shape I really was lol. But with time I'll get better at it.

chill day off

lazy day off for me. I was gonna work on the 50 a little bit but I was just so beat. so I just ended up cleaning the rivi and the 50. bassically just wiped off all the water spots on them. after that jess called me up and wanted something to eat. so I met her and jamie and we went to red robin where we had some bomb food. then after a little target trip before we headed home. cruised the 50 a little bit since the weather was so beautiful. then this pinchadero showed up



pacific drift nick

not the best pic of him I know but me and nick are going over some plans that will sure be a good investment for the future. hope you all are having a good week so far.

God bless

paint it black
