Another Podcast? Yep, and it Combines a Few of My Favorite Things

by

If you’re reading this blog, you probably already know this, but if you’re new here, there are very few things that I love more in life than cars, sneakers, and content. Recently, with the help of my friends Jacques Slade and Erik Valdez, I was able to combine the three of these passions into an … Read more

24 Hours of Lemons

by

Since today was the 24 Hour of Lemons at Road Atlanta, I was reminiscing about the car my brother concepted (I know that’s not a word but I think it should be so it’s staying) and raced with his brother-in-law years ago. The idea behind the race is “a race for everyone” and with a … Read more

Van Life Is Calling Me

by

Van life is calling me! It has been for a number of years if I am being completely honest with myself. Camping has always been a part of my life, in fact at one point when life was most challenging as a kid, my family lived in a campground. As I grew older, I moved away from many of the things about my youth that I was frustrated about and relived many of the opportunities the I felt were missed from my family’s rules.

Urban Outlaw: The Perfect Name, The Perfect Passion

by

As cynical as it sounds, I rarely find anything inspiring on the Internet nowadays. There is plenty of great content out there but in my life experiences, the truly moving and inspiring creations require either a big screen and buttery popcorn, a lot of black and orange, or in-person conversation that cannot be felt through … Read more

My Morning Commute Sucks. Thanks, Patrick Long.

by

I’ve spent most of my adult life trying to figure out how to avoid the stereotypical “American Way” and its 9-5 work hours. I don’t function efficiently during those hours, no matter how much I am paid or how much I convince myself I can, it just doesn’t happen. Instead, my “commute” has been altered to fit my own ever-changing schedule and means of transportation, whether it be my skateboard or BMX bike.

Today, however, one of my favorite racecar drivers has completely ruined my idea of the perfect morning commute with this video. Never again will I be happy with lackadaisically meandering to the corner coffee spot …ok well, maybe sometimes, but Patrick Long, Porsche factory driver of my favorite race team, Flying Lizard Motor Sports has a pretty kick-ass “commute” to deal with, almost makes me jealous, even if the coffee gets cold. I’ll be making coffee at Laguna Seca this weekend, however, just like I have been for American Le Mans events for the last ten years or so, and the coffee… it won’t be cold. Go Lizards!

Formula 1 Circuit of the Americas – Austin Texas

by

My friends over at @whtcollarcrime just sent over this new Red Bull video of the Circuit of the Americas. I figured since the rest of Formula 1 seems to be bowing down to Sebastian Vettel and Red Bull Racing this season, I may as well tip my cap to them as well. Red Bull is one of … Read more
