VIDEO ROLL>> D1 DIVISIONAL IN MOBARA

EVENT>> D1GP 2009 – TOKYO DRIFT EXHIBITION – PT3

Before spending some time looking at the D1 Divisional Round in Mobara we were in the middle of last weekend's Tokyo Drift Exhibition coverage, held in Odaiba. To wrap things up I want to go back and check out some more action from this event, one that does a great job of promoting drifting to [...]

EVENT>>NURBURGRING 24 – LEXUS LF-A

The Porsches and the Audi were quicker but the honour of "Coolest Car" could only head one way at the Nurburgring, the real attention getter was the pair of Lexus LF-A run by Gazoo Racing. From the unusual and dramatic shape to the scream of the V10 engine they were undoubtedly the stars of the [...]

EVENT>> OLD/NOW CAR FESTIVAL – PT3

Looking back at it now I think the Old/Now Car Festival at Tsukuba is one of the most varied shows I've had the pleasure to attend. The mix of old and new worked beautifully giving show goers an impressive line up of cars to feast their eyes on. As always, events like these offer the true car [...]

CAR FEATURE>> QUATTRO RALLY REPLICA

Does a role model always need to be a car? Just like the Swede, Peter Bolnert in Rod’s retrospective on the IMSA Audi 90, Coen Donkers also was a fan of a certain Audi race car… As you probably have guessed by looking at the pictures, he build himself a replica of the famous Audi [...]

EVENT>> D1 DIVISIONAL MOBARA – PT2

The rain-soaked action from the D1 Divisional in Mobara continues with this opening shot from one of the tsuiso battles. Baby blue? For a drift car? Why not…this JZX100 was definitely getting the attention it deserved! I think this might have been the only time that Bomber Yamamoto wasn't on the mic! He literally keept [...]

DRIVERS BLOG: VAUGHN GITTIN JR>> MUSTANG 45TH ANNIVERSARY

We joined the "Mustang's Across America" tour after picking up this sweet 2010 GT500 at a local dealership in Oklahoma. The caravan of over 600 Mustangs was heading to the 45th Mustang Anniversary at Barber Motorsports Park. It was a great time and I will definately be doing the tour every five years as long as my schedule allows.  More of [...]

DESKTOPS>>SANTA MARIA ROADSTER

I just realized I haven't posted too many desktops for you guys this month, so here's some high res hot rod goodness from last weekend's Cruisin' Nationals in Santa Maria. I experimented a bit with black and white for this shot, and think it came out pretty cool. What do you think? Head over to [...]

EVENT>> OLD/NOW CAR FESTIVAL – PT2

The Speedhunting trip to Italy kind of put a delay on my regular posting, but there was no way I was not going to go back to the Old/New Car Festival at Tsukuba Circuit for some more coverage. Little did I know that a few days after I took these pictures I would be at the [...]

CAR SPOTLIGHT>>"HOOD RIDE" OVAL WINDOW BUG

Well, our VW-Audi month has pretty much come to an end, but there's one last Volkswagen that I want to share – and I think you'll agree that it's worth the wait. Last month at a local VW event here in Central California, there was one particular car that had a constant crowd of people [...]

RETROSPECTIVE>>AUDI UR-QUATTRO

We couldn’t possibly have a VW Group month without featuring one of the most important cars of all time, the Audi Ur-Quattro. The Ur-Quattro made its debut at the Geneva show in 1980, on sale to the European public a year later. Based on the cheaper Audi 80 coupe, visually, the Quattro had more aggressive styling with [...]

EVENT>>NURBURGRING 24 – VW & AUDI

May has been designated as VW Audi month here on SpeedHunters so as both of these brands had a factory presence at last week's Nurburgring 24 Hours it is appropriate to have a look at what they brung to run. Of course there were a few privateer cars too, so let's throw those into the [...]
