passing of time

six years is an appropriate time between posts. these last three might have had global events.

K20A2
As a culmination of decades of working on cars, I am going to try to build a turbo K20A2 powered S14. I purchased a chassis from a friend and I hope to build a somewhat decent time attack car. No high power goals, no complex suspension setups. Like the S13, it will just be a track car I can consistently start and drive with minimal headache. The turbo is just there to satisfy obsession with the feeling of a spooling turbo.

As of today, I have no longer any excuse to start assembly for tolerance checking. The engine may need machine work and these measurements will be critical for proper assembly. If all goes well, I should have this engine in the car by the end of the year.

SR20DET S13

With the help of many, I’ve made significant progress to my own drifting journey. To my amazement, driving on a simulator has helped me immensely with hand-eye coordination and being able to anticipate corners and car control. I am in forever debt to all that have helped me get here.

This is undoubtedly the lowest quality images I have displayed on this website. It probably will happen again. I just hope it will not.

2016.
At the end of 2015, I made the decision a few career decisions. The slow start in 2016 meant I could dedicate a little more time to automotive photography. Thank you to the people that have allowed me to do so.

PAGANI @ LAGUNA SECA

After a week of strange events, I found myself at Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca. Pablo Pérez Companc and the Pagani crew were testing the Zonda Revolucion. Perez Companc calls this his "Black Minion". With the sound and stance of the all carbon Revolucion, it seems like a fitting name.

FD ORLANDO

Some more skids. First time shooting a Formula Drift event. All experiments and experience have culminated in this event. Leaps and bounds from now on. Refine the toolbox. Refine the vision.
