2009 Nissan GTR Test Drive

This car is so magnificent, we weren't necessarily allowed to "fully" lay into the pedal, or so we promised its skeptical owner. Dieter spends most of the car ride, explaining systems, buttons, and all sorts of other gadgets. After being in the car, there is nothing else that would make me happier than waking up every morning to the GTR sitting in my garage. Originally coined "The Skyline" by Nissan's development team, the GTR comes from the R32, R33, and R34 bloodline. Some people say that the Skyline is the only Japanese contribution to the world of super cars and after the test drive with the 2009 GTR I'm convinced of this truth. From the control interface and the suede bucket seats, or the twin turbo v-6 under the hood, the Nissan GTR is the most raw, untamed Japanese sports car to ever cross the oceans. Bring your instructional manuals and go for a ride with Dieter and see how cool a Nissan can be.

Stay a car length ahead gents.

Audi R8 GT3

commissioned for GT3 class 2009

When I first saw this car, I almost fainted. It was by far the most aggressive, sporty, next level GT3 car I have ever seen. GT3 cars are even closer to their production counterparts and are very simply racetrack prepared with the essentials (rollcages for safety, stripped interiors, race spec fuel tanks, etc.). Prestigious motorsports makes such as Aston Martin, Chevrolet, Dodge, Lamborghini, Ascari and Maserati take part in FIA GT3 European Championship, a series in which some say is the most challenging circuit in the world. The R8 GT3 was constructed with a 6-speed sequential gear box and a 550 horsepower V-10.  

The GT3 class strictly prohibits the use of all-wheel drivetrains, so the R8 GT3 comes in the rear-wheel drive format. It will beat your car. Its projected to beat out the rest of the cars racing in the Nurburgring 24-hour Race. To have this vehicle in your collection separates you from the normal car connoisseur. You become elite. And you get a V10 that growls like Tom Ford at a gay strip club. Watch this car race on ESPN or Speedvision for the 2009 LAMS Season. Why doesn't a rapper write a song about cars like this?

Stay auto savvy Gents.

AirBull RedRaces..........What?

Grizz Transport Service

bad ass

infestation

see what I mean

hello

I am back from a 3 week break. It mainly consisted of playing golf with my dad, traveling a little bit and trying to keep my mental sanity (which is an on-going effort). I will have more blog content on that later, but first, my coverage of the Red Bull Air Races in San Diego. What do you want to hear first, how nasty the Hyatt's STD Jacuzzi was, or how annoying drunk people under 18 are. When Bollinger calls you with free tickets to the air races, you don't exactly want to refuse them. So naturally I selected the two most outlandish people I know as accomplices; Payam and Grizz. Payam refuses to dress normal or talk quietly pretty much 24/7 and demanded that he be able to wear a rabbit fur jacket that was stolen from a house in San Fransisco. He reminds me of a Binicio del Toro sketch cartoon from Fear and Loathing. But none the less my crew was somewhat coherent and we were on our way to the races. As soon as we got to the event it was 4pm. Not only had the races started at 1pm, but they ended at 5pm. So we watched one plane race and then finished our 60 minute stay with Jack and Cokes in the Lobby of Doug Manchester's Hyatt hotel. I took a couple photos, but this has to be the worst coverage of an event I have ever documented. I have no legitimate information about who raced or what planes were there, but I can tell you that the color of the pool was a dim yellow by the time we left and at least a thousand girls were impregnated by the time we got back home. Planes are pretty bad ass though. Probably thought my first entry back would be a good one? Expectations......

Stay std free gents.

SUV, Watch, On a Boat

ferrari has needed to step into the suv market, but is this photo a fake?

R.J. watches made from parts of the titanic, 100% legit.

               

                           

 This is just amazing and you know it. Thanks Grizz....

After settling back into my apartment, I was able to continue my daily routine of video editing, text messaging, and aimless searching of digg.com for stories about people dumber than I am. But somewhere in my vast and non-sensical net search I came across these two items. The first the photo of the ferrari "suv" which the more I look into it seems to be a fake, and the second, the r.j. watch from Romain Jerome. When The Albert Mason Group, gets its first big picture deal, R.J. watches for everyone. No, but seriously, who buys a watch like this? This week should heat up, hopefully making this page a bit more exciting. Or as my good friend Cameron Sikes says, "time to pump up the jams a bit.". Hopefully you're enjoying the blog thus far, remember I'm doing this for you, not me. I already know all of this amazing information.

Hope you received this well tonight.

Cheers.
