It’s pretty easy to get burned out when you make your hobby into your job. I remember working at a bike shop when i was young, and not wanting to ride bmx or fix my bike after work because of the constant exposure to products and media started to stunt my own creativity and opinions. Only way around it is sometimes to take a back seat for a bit. Last car that blew me away was probably that carbon kevlar BMW that you guys featured last year. Workmanship and finish never get tiring!

louisFCO That is true. And EVO magazine is best writing I ever read. And they have most epic photos.
Speedhunters,you do really good job too. I adore writings from Paddy,Larry, Dino and others,very nice.
But you can do very good story,but as I saw in comments, there are a lot of lazy people who are just lookin at photos like three years old.
I got mad on these type of ignorants. MF,someone put a lot of time to write something inspiring,great,epic,toughtfulll,how the hell you can ignore that.

D-Mac and his S1 Quattro is exciting me at the moment, can’t wait to see it in the metal!
Hopefully you can rekindle your love affair Paddy, would hate to see your top quality work overshadowed by an underlying struggle to find the next big impressionable build! Keep up the good work and as you said yourself, 2017 may have a few surprises up its sleeve

The builds that excite me the most are the builds that the owners are excited by.
I shot a Millington Diamond powered AE86 gravel car recently, a beautiful build and the product of some unfortunate circumstances. During the shoot myself and the owner had some pretty in depth conversation about the car, and the engineering of the car (largely self-built). I just couldn’t help but get enthused about it, after listening to the owner fizzing about his new build, the challenges involved and just how much he was amping to get out and give it some right foot action.
The build had purpose. It had direction. It had function. It didn’t come without it’s challenges.
Those three things alone are really what get me going. I’ve long tried to bring features to the table that are a product of a proper goal, and some good old fashioned blood sweat and tears in the shed. This is to me what being a car guy is all about, I grew up with it, and I still immerse myself in it to the utomst of my ability (time’s the biggest mitigating factor).
Without wanting to devalue someone’s build, the current crop of trending “brand name builds” (sorry I couldn’t figure out a more eloquent way to put that) don’t feel as driven or as single mindedly determined as a good old-fashioned built in the shed project. Dare I say cookie cutter? I don’t know… but I am well aware that there is a level of hard-graft put into raising the capital to do these builds all the same.
I’m sailing dangerously close to the “built not bought” attitude I know. But the saturation of these, and the way in which they’re presented with little to no information about how it all came about leaves them feeling a little impersonal, a little show-offy and ultimately a little more boring to me personally.
