I have made a final selection of my favorite shots from 2009, a year that seemed to have flown by rather quickly. As the saying goes, when you are having fun time sure does fly! Here is to an even more exiting 2010!! Mooneyes Street Car Nationals, Odaiba, Tokyo. Spotted this beautiful orange 240ZG parked [...]
How's everyone doing? Enjoying the holiday time? Hiding away from the festive season? Taking time to recharge your batteries? Personally speaking, I've had one foot on the brake pedal for the past few days as I attempt to get some much needed rest. 2010 will be kicking off with a bang next week so I'm [...]
For my final review story of the year, I want to share some observations on the general automotive and tuning trends of 2009. The economy might be on it's way out of a giant hole, but people across the world are still finding ways to enjoy cars, and we've seen some bold new ideas popping [...]
What a year it has been, it seems that that the last few years are over before I even knew it. For Speedhunters I have been to several shows, but the Nürburgring travels were the most fun. I know I can't take photo's as good as Mike, Linhberg and Dino, but I'm getting there and [...]

It’s been an exciting year this one. I have covered tons of events and shows, shot some incredible cars and have pushed the boundaries of my car obsession further by beginning to appreciate styles and areas of car culture that I had previously not paid any attention to. So what better way to look at [...]
So 1995 saw a top ten finish at Le Mans for the NISMO run Nissan Skyline GT-R LM, how would it fare twelve months down the line? At first glance the car was largely unchanged, only the most observant would see the new rear wing, struts and endplates. However under the skin there were many [...]

I have to admit that my eyes tend to glass over whenever I see an ultra clean car. The car may be done up correctly with appropriate ride height, wheel fitment, clean body work and everything else we appreciate on Speedhunters but I find there’s something quite impersonal about being perfect. Owners of clean cars [...]
After the demise of Group C and IMSA GTP in 1992 it was clear to all that endurance racing would have to go back to its road car roots. And so it proved, in 1994 Stephane Ratel, Jurgen Barth and Patrick Peter formed an alliance and created the BPR Series. They ran a number of [...]

The crowded field was [...]
For my final Car Spotlight from the Mooneyes X-Mas Party, we'll be looking at a very unique custom. While hot rods might lend themselves well to over the top mechanical expression – the "led sleds" are typically a bit more traditional.
