This is going to be a busy few days on Speedhunters.com. John Brooks is already in Birmingham, UK getting set for the Autosport show, Dino is gearing up for the Tokyo Auto Salon and a group of us have converged on Dubai to film and photograph the Dubai 24 hour race. Some of you will remember last year we had a Porsche entered in the race which took
Wow what a response we are getting to our Access Zero 42 coverage! Glad you lot like the photos, but the true testament has to go to the organizers of the show who brought a lot of fellow auto enthusiasts together for this meet. Linhbergh and I decided we were going to select 1 car from the event to shoot as the November "Slammed" theme calendar
We're in a bit of a video post production crunch right now as we have two videos to get completed in the next couple of days. They are going to be debuting next week at SEMA so we're putting a bit of pressure on ourselves to make these new films the hottest things ever.

Are any of you guys following the new F1 season? The shift in power is quite dramatic between teams. Suddenly, the front runners are mid grid and new powers have emerged to dominate the racing landscape. Perhaps there is a bit of this happening in Formula D too....Quite a few big buck builds had their competition debuts this weekend, but only some of
Man that Mike Garret guy is really fast!.... I'm just starting to write my Thursday report and he's already finished his.... well I have a good excuse, I was out at a film production meeting this evening. We're pulling out all the stops with a big HD video production this weekend, and have brought out some big guns to shoot the drifting
Every since last year’s Superlap event at Oran Park, Time Attack has been labelled the next best thing in Motorsport in Australia. Every local forum has seen threads titled “Superlap” and “time attack” with multiple pages of replies. Build threads have been popping up all over the place with people getting cars ready for
Exactly one week ago today was the drag racing portion of the 4&Rotary Nationals... unfortunately I couldn't be there but Gray Lynskey, the news editor of NZ Performance Car magazine kindly offered to do an event report for the Speedhunters audience.

One subject I find quite interesting, is to observe how an eastern based culture, like Japanese drifting, is digested and reinterpreted in westernized countries. I've been lucky enough to have attended Drift events in the UK, Germany, USA and Japan in the past year and enjoy chatting with event organizers, drivers and magazine writers about this
