Touge Factory BBQ

There is an annual tradition for TougeFactory, a JDM part supplier and shop, to through a huge bash and bbq at the end of each summer. So today, was this years huge meet. As I got to the location, put my lens onto my D40, I turned my camera on and… battery is dead. All I’m thinking to myself is how could have I not charge the battery last night. So without the camera, I was just trolling through the cars and shops today.
The food was great, the prices were awesome, and the cars and people were super dope.

Travis Pastrana Comes to Town

Today started off as any other early Saturday morning, waking up to an urgent call. A call originating from a good friend who just got word of a sweet Subaru meet.
I was down to go, as always. On our way to the show, a plethora of Subarus was on the streets. To our surprise, the so called meet would not begin until 6pm. Traveling such a long way only to come here six hours earlier influenced us just to see whats inside all of the setup tents. I walk up to a trailer and see a pretty dope dirtbike, right next to a picture of Travis Pastrana’s face. At that moment, we knew that this “pre-show” with only a few Subaru cars would be hella dope.

We were greated by the Itasca Police Impreza. This beast sounds incredible with the HKS cat-back.

WheelSTO Car Meet

Just a small car meet coupled with an open house an WheelSTO. Great atmosphere, shop, people, and most of all, cars.

Can’t wait until next time.
