Being involved in the creation of a Need for Speed racing game could be considered to be a bit of a double edged sword. On one hand, you get to design and detail out your wildest automotive dreams. If you can imagine all the details of a complete automotive racing experience, and have the skills [...]
Being a part of the circus that is Formula Drift for a few years now, I had the opportunity get to know quite a few people that run the show in the background. One of these many cogs in the clockwork that is FD is starting line up guy, Luke Crowell. During the breaks between [...]
During our Builds month, Speedhunters exposed Australian Nigel Petrie's Toyota Hilux drift build. A lot has happened to the Hilux since then, so here's an update from Nigel on what he's been working on in his Melbourne garage. Hey guys! I'm Nigel and here we are again, peeking into the one-car garage that I spend most [...]
You come across some pretty interesting street cars at your local meets. Like this K-powered EK I recently spotted in Queensland, Australia. Whilst waiting for Josh to turn up I could tell he wasn't too far away by the echoing sound of VTEC goodness rasping through the mountains. A few minutes later I was faced [...]
I thought I’d balance the Honda presence on the site this month with a bit of Nissan goodness. If you followed my Nagoya Exciting Car Showdown coverage you may remember seeing this particular 4-Door ER34 Skyline that I spotted in the parking lot. The owner was obviously disappointed that Autech never made an official 4-door [...]
Before I begin I know this car may not have the same impact on you as it does to me. To me something like this is truly amazing; a car that arrives straight across the ocean from Japan, something so authentic I couldn’t resist shooting. When I heard JDM Garage had a container arriving, I [...]
Hey Speedhunters what's up! Long time no talk. Happy to have the Formula Drift series back up and going again. I got a good chance at Long Beach to vent some built up aggression from doing nothing but working on my car for a month and a half. Bleeding the clutch at media day. We switched [...]
I always love visiting shops and car builders. You see customer cars, cars that are being built and cars that you don’t see at the car shows. While visiting JB Tuning in Nieuwegein, Holland, I was greeted by this Skyline R34 that was wrapped in matte white vinyl. The car behind it was a car I [...]
When we think of Time Attack, usually we think of four wheel drive, turbocharged and fire breathing monsters capable of smashing lap records everywhere they go. More often than not, these cars make up the Pro class. The only rules would appear to be the use of the control tyres and regulation safety devices and [...]
I've spent a bit of time hunting around the 'net for some more Hondas from Japan and for Part 3 of my posts I thought I'd focus on some of the more unusual Honda street cars. Browsing through hundreds of archives picking out some of the coolest Hondas wasn't easy! I know each and everyone [...]
On Friday I packed my camera and made the trip to Zandvoort for the Gran Turismo Events trackday. I was told there would be some special cars including Ferraris and Lamborghinis. On my way there I already saw some cars on the highway so I knew I wouldn't be disappointed. After arriving at the circuit [...]
Subaru Tecnica International seems to have really found a market for its new "Tuned by STI" tS limited edition models. Even if this Forester tS isn't quite as extreme as the Impreza we saw yesterday it certainly shows that enthusiasts are willing to spend a bit more to gain a more sporty feel from their [...]
Here in car-obsessed Southern California, there is NEVER a shortage of automotive things to do. Fords were the order of business last Sunday at Knott's Berry Farm, and this weekend it was time for the Mopar folks to step into the spotlight at Spring Fling XXV at Woodley Park in Van Nuys. After seeing the [...]

The first round of the UK Time Attack Series heralds the dawn of yet another season for this Speedhunter. The same event back in 2010 was my first assignment as a full time contributor to this site so I can hardly believe that twelve months have already past and what a twelve months they have [...]
