Kaiserslautern Karting Center


Video from my trip to our local kart track, I was lapping in the low 48 seconds around the track. I have a  long way to go if I want to get close to the record of 44.4 seconds.

Sport Auto Tuner GP/Drift Part 1

I made my way over to the Hockenheimring last Saturday which is relatively a short drive from Ramstein, only about 1 hour or so depending on traffic. The track is interesting because it is right in the middle of Hockenheim proper. Most race tracks are located out in the sticks to that they are isolated from large population centers. The parking area for the track even had a kids daycare and city park incorporated into it.

FD in the Gunshine state Live

                   
Watch live video from driftstream on Justin.tv

Hell to the yeah

Selling out.

So I signed up for that google adsense crap. I know its a bit of a cop out since I just do this blog for fun but hey I get a decent amount of traffic here so I figure why not. There are ads all over the internet what difference is it going to make if I make a few bucks.

So heres a toast to being a corporate whore, Cheers!

NotHotlanta Part. 1

So after 2 years absence I was finally able to go to another FD event. I specifically chose my leave dates in order to go to FD Atlanta this year. This event means a lot to me and I was thrilled to be able to go before I made my flight out to Germany just a few short days later.

This first part will focus on some pro-am coverage. I love the more grassroots side of things, especially since I knew most of the drivers that were involved and I was having a blast hanging out with all my old friends.

There are things to be said about places that you have lived in your life but there really only can be one place you can call your "favorite". This place is special to you for certain reasons maybe you can't even describe what the reasons are but you just know they are there.

Soo... Germany

Quick little update. I have successfully made the move to ramstein and I will be doing a half-assed job covering whatever I feel like over here. Sometime this week I will be putting up some pictures and other vulgarness that I accrued while I was on vacation in the USA.

Korean driftin' an shiiii.....

So here are some of the pics I took from that korean Drift event I went to (The same one from the video). This was my first try at shooting stills and video for an event with a decent camera. Let me know what you think

DSC_0049
The event was 97% hyundai genesis's. There where only two other cars that were not of the korean variety. There was ONE S13 and one 350z. Such an odd thing when you are used to events in the states where 90% of the cars are nissans.

(really late post) New lenses!

*This post is really late since I bought these months ago but anyways*

I went ahead an Bought myself a few new lenses and I thought I'd share some pictures I took with them.

First off is my new Nikon Nikkor 35mm 1.8

This is a Prime lens so it has no zoom at all it is just 35mm focal length so it is very close to the natural view of the human eye on a nikon DX sensor camera like my D3100. I love this lens, it takes amazingly clear and sharp pictures even in really low light. Like this shot right here....

27 March 2011



A short video I made from last weekend. I had the chance to go up to a South Korean drift event. I didn't even know they had these plus I didn't even know this track existed. But anyways im not really happy with the video.

New years in Seoul

DSC_0094

Yeah I know this is late but you know what "they" say. So I went to Seoul to celebrate new years with my friends. New years to me isn't just "New Start" that it is to most people or simply another year gone by as it is also my Birthday. Yes I am a new years baby as much as I tired of being called that (Oooohh you're a new years baby!). So I decided to actually do this new years up right and make up for last year (I was in Afghanistan and had to work :Sad Face:)
