I love Thursdays, Part 2!

I for one, love Thursdays as well. Oft times, you can catch me saying, "I hate, not-Thursdays." If you didn't know, Thursday is Karaoke night over at TJ's Locker Room in Orange County. Master Bruce posted up some pictures he took from a previous Karaoke Night, so I thought I'd do the same and post up some shots I have from my little camera.

Here's a picture of some of the regulars, from left to right: Greg "the beez", "turbo" tim, and MasterBruce

This is our good buddy Ryan and his Designated Driver who wasn't designated to driver afterall

Anthony, aka "GoldMember" aka "DrunkMember"

TurboTim and I mean muggin it.

MasterBruce and I doing our best dirty sanchez impressions

ThoseGuys!

Clearly, DrunkMember is SoberMember here.

"Damn, check out that beautiful man over there"

The beer is usually flowin on Thursday nights, at TJ's, a pitcher goes for $7.50. There's also a Taco Bell in the same lot, so if you're hungry, they've got you covered.

Yeah, i get pretty mean when i'm drunk... Allegedly, i'm also pretty mean when im sober. Go figure, right?

This is from last Thursday, 05/07.

Alas, I didn't get to attend TJ's last night, as I came down with a mild case of the Swine Flu, but it's ok, I'll be back in full force next Thursday.
Until Next Time

DarkSideM3

This is a continuation of the previous teaser post I put up last week.


This Techno Violence M3 sedan belongs to my good friend Geoffrey Tunang. Geoff and I first became e-buddies through an e30 enthusiast forum some years ago. Fast forward a few years, we became real friends after he had long since gotten rid of his e30.



I first met Geoff when I met up with my friend JonPham in the OC to do some "ILLEGAL STREET DREEEEEFTING!" seriously, it was a fun night. At the time, Geoff drove a red e36 325i coupe if i'm not mistaken. It was dumped on some kosei k1's and had an open diff. We drove all around to random parking lots and slid around for a while before moving on to another. The last lot we went to, we drifted for about 5 minutes before a couple of guys came out of an adjacent building and asked what we were doing. I replied, "oh, just some drifting, care to watch?" to which they replied, "uhh well, we go to church here, so we'd appreciate it if you didn't do that here."
Anyway, Geoff's come a long way from then, and he's seriously a talented driver. He's recently become an instructor for the BMWCCA and did amazingly well at the el toro drift event reccently attended by our very own MasterBruce.
Geoff's setup is pretty legit. I won't get all technical, but if you want to know, you can check it out at his blog, PerfectFitment. He's lowered on Ground Control coilovers with a pretty stiff spring setup and some 18" forgelines in a width and offset to make your children weep with fury.
Geoff's a funny kid, I'm pretty grateful to be able to call him my friend, and happy that I was able to feature him on this blog.
but seriously, with a stance and fitment geometric equation like that, you'd be dumb not to jock that steeze.

here's a vid of geoff doing his thang. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JSr3MMnSIvg

anyway, this is karlotron2.0 saying,
keep it steezy, real easy

A little down time.

Thursdays. In my opinion they are almost better then Fridays. Every Thursday night you can usually find those guys at the bar, signing karaoke, and enjoying the company of good friends. So I thought I would let all of you see just what we do on Thursday nights.

The spot you can always find us at.

VIP parking.


Until next time, keep on pushing for greatness everyone.

Dai's School of Drift












El Toro, my first event.

This was my first drift event. I was so nervous I could barely sleep the night before. Anyways, all week I prepped the car to get it ready for the event. Change oil, installed a turn knob, took off the front bumper, took off the rear caps, and loaded up the truck.

This is how the car looked the night before.

I finally think I fell asleep at about 3:00, and woke up at 6:45 to get ready to leave. Geoff was outside right at 7:00 (time we all said we would meet up) with breakfast, it was amazing because I wasn't planning on eating anything. We took off at about 7:15, and got to the event by 7:45, just in time for teck at 8:00.

Geoff and I heading to the event.

We finish with teck at about 9:00, so we spent the rest of the time swapping out tires and getting ready to start drifting. 10:00 was there before you knew it, and all beginners had to go do circles around a cone for Dia to watch, once you passed you where able to go to the 2nd gear course.

My first try at it, took me 3 try's to finally get it down.

After I finally passed, I spent the rest of the day on the 2nd gear track, and I must say it was AMAZING. It has to be the coolest thing I have ever done in a car. But the part that topped it off was Quoc rode along with me for my last few runs, and helped me out a TON. I cant wait for my next event, talk to you all soon.


Quoc pushing me to lay down the smoke.


Then I wanted to see how close I could get to the tree's.

Thanks again everyone for checking out the blog. Sorry it takes a few days to get around to posting, I am trying to find time in my day to get on here and give everyone updates, so stick with me as we all work though this.
