Filed under: , , , ,  
Speedhunters
It's that time of the year again. Next week the city of Las Vegas will be taken over by gearheads of all types as the SEMA Show rolls into the Convention Center. Although the economy is showing signs of a comeback, this year's show will still be toned down a bit compared to years past, with some companies skipping the event for financial reasons. Nonetheless, it's still SEMA - and there will still be miles of the latest and greatest machinery to check out. Here are just a few of things to look out for next week-...

MOTORSHOW>> TOKYO MOTORSHOW 2009 - PREVIEW
Filed under: , , , ,  
Speedhunters
It's been a very long day today. I headed out to the Makuhari Messe exhibition center in Chiba nice an early ready for a day of shooting at the 41st Tokyo Motorshow. It was a very strange show, the quietest one I've ever been to that's for sure, with only the Japanese manufacturers participating for 2009, along with a handful of a few other exhibitors like Lotus, Caterham and Alpina. Despite this however there was plenty of interesting cars to feast my eyes on, and there is no doubt Toyota...

It's only Tuesday, but preparation for the weekend's Formula Drift finale at Irwindale Speedway is already in full swing. It's been nearly two months since the last FD event in Sonoma, and the drivers are fired up to finish the season on a high note.

PREVIEW>> FORMULA ONE: TEAMS AND DRIVERS
Filed under: , , , , , , , , ,  
Speedhunters
The 2009 Formula 1 World Championship kicks off this weekend in Melbourne, Australia. This has the potential to be one of the most open seasons ever, with new rules and regulations. A number of rules have been brought in, giving a Formula 1 car a different look. From the side, most of the aerodynamic aids have disappeared and the cars look much cleaner.

Filed under: , , , , , , , ,  
Speedhunters
It honestly seems like it was just a few weeks ago that I was at Fuji Speedway covering the final round of the 2008 D1GP season, but it's already late March and the 2009 D1 Grand Prix season will begin this weekend at Ebisu Circuit. You can expect to see a lot of D1 coverage from Japan on Speedhunters this year, and we thought it would be a good idea to do a quick preview of the upcoming season before things get started....
