Aero break through or glorified JDM bug deflector?

The italians tried it in the 80s, although it’s said this was more about getting around US minimum bumper height requirements than aerodynamics.

A Closer Look

at Bob Boileau’s ass kicking 1974 Civic 1200. Six SCCA national championships and clocked at 146.69 MPH on just 1200 CCs. This is another one of those cars that should never be restored.

New Blog to Check Out

Posted in Uncategorized on November 6, 2009 by ekhatch

The crazy cats from Team Function asked if I would help them get a blog up and running and because I’m a hell of a guy I did. So your homework for tonight is to click on over there and tell me what you think. Basic layout, made a header, and added some pix they sent me from the Ohio Hondas post meet hangout and their coverage of Import Alliance fall ‘09. If you look real close you may even get a glimpse of my bucket. Can’t get the blogroll visible over there yet for some reason? They’re going to be spending the winter turning the grafitti hatch into a full time all out track car so follow along and see what they’re up to. Team Function Garage

Five Axis xB at SEMA

Posted in Uncategorized with tags , , , on November 5, 2009 by ekhatch

Five Axis has always impressed me with their craftsmanship and skill but not necessarily their style, until now! Red Sub WHAT!? Someone’s been paying attention to what James has been up to. I really like how the one off wheels capture the right look without being a direct copy of any one old school JDM wheel.

IFC showed Hero tonight, I had forgotten just how much I love this movie, I can’t believe I don’t own it. If you haven’t seen it do yourself a favor and check it out unless you just can’t stand subtitles. If you like it follow it up with House of Flying Daggers, actually I’m not sure which one I like more, both are absolutely beautiful films, feature some amazing wire work and are must see.
