Cars fucking suck, plain and simple. There’s no avoiding the maintenance costs, break downs or increasingly expensive fill ups. Lets paint a picture: it’s Tuesday. You have a full tank of gas, $50 to your name to get you through the next week and a half, and about 900 kilometers to commute between work, school […]

7th Annual FITTED
FITTED is Toronto’s unofficial car show season opener. Positioned early enough in the year for most to unveil the work that was completed over the winter months. There were a few builds I was keeping an eye on. Including Miro’s Camaro. I’ve seen the unfinished item on a few occasions but the fully finished unit […]
Money Gang BBQ
Devo and the Money Gang crew held their first BBQ a few weeks ago. Excellent people, excellent food not so excellent weather. All things considered it was a good way to spend a Sunday. Kristoff, Devo and Mike all parked their cars like the cool kids do. So I parked my poser car with theirs. […]
TwoYotas
“I’ll just grab some quick shots, and edit them as soon as I can.” Not entirely verbatim but I think that’s what I said while taking these photos. These are from the FITTED Lakeshore event. They were put on the back burner for……. some 6-7 months. Toronto has a lot of well represented car niches, […]
The New Beater?
About this time 2 years ago I swapped from the Subaru (which was only just recently towed away) to the current e34. Considering its price and condition, I had anticipated the car to be my “beater”. I had even considered a few track days for it. As time went on I grew more attached to […]
Daily Scraped #619
Mauncho Does The Strip
For the first time in the 4 years I’ve been going to H2Oi I finally have some of my own photos to show off. Although all these photos took all of 15 mintues to take while we waiting for our table to eat lunch I’d say they came out pretty good. This years show was […]
Pfaff Tuning Show and Shine BBQ
We finally got around to posting more photos from the Pfaff Tuning Show and Shine. It took place the week before H2Oi so we were all a tad pre-occupied. It was still a great show, with an array of different cars. Matt Berenz did a fantastic job of organizing the entire day. I’m certain next […]
H2Oi 2014 – BMW Meet
After last years pretty successful E30/early BMW meet, we decided to replicate the meet but on a smaller scale. It was now 5 series oriented, since Bron and I both drive one. We had only planned on having 10-15 cars as we were both just looking to meet other e34 owners. But it quickly grew […]
H2Oi 2014 – Arrival
The drive down was more eventful than I had hoped for. 2 hours in, Dan and I collectively obliterated a deer carcass. It was at that exact second I realized raising your car for the drive down is a damn good decision. I took the brunt of the deer as my bumper trim and oil […]
CSCS August 11th
CSCS, show and shine, time attack and drifting. There are no other events locally that combine these three things. As a person who’s attention span is very very limited ,the multiple aspects to the show are welcome. It’s hard not to be a fan of time attack and drifting when they are witnessed in person. […]
Man Amongst Boys
Nissan GT-R GT3 dicing through the field.
ADV.1 M3 | Pfaff Tuning
More of Jimmy’s M3. Deathlens’ video of course.
Unicorn.
Images of Eleanor’s junkyard scene flash before my eyes. Sad scene.
Intersquad Squabble Pt. 2
Team LADA is far from a good outfit. They manage to sign James Thompson. I don’t think he likes his team mate Aleksei Dudukalo much right now
Intersquad Squabble.
Not sure how I feel about this. It seems as though Vettel went against team orders to pass Webber. But I’m here to watch great racing. I think Webber would have done the same given the chance. It’s just drivers being drivers. And IMO, much better than Mercedes’ jog to the end. Edit* The FIA […]
Magnus Walker – Turbo Fever
All of the other Walker cars we’ve seen so far have been NA 911s. This is the first I’ve seen of his Turbo 930. The stance is damn near perfection. Meaty tires on Fuchs with lovely fitment.
Who Wore It Better?
Martini, worn by Brabham and Porsche.
