We finally made it to Los Angeles and Urbanracer snagged the wrap up story of our cross country mission in the Infiniti G37. This photo above I took at White Sands, New Mexico after a good 2,000 miles on the trip. She doesn’t looks so bad considering we never stopped to was her off. We swung by Phoenix and hung out with Jarod DeAnda and his family in Phoenix for the evening as well which was a super blast.
Let me start off with saying that this was my favorite place in Los Angeles to eat before I lived less than a half mile from this place. Since being that close I might be changing my mailing address to this location because my goal is to take every person I have ever met to dine here.
Last night was my best experience to date at this place as well. Ordered a four cheese penne and ate away. I don’t think one time my glass got less than 75% full and it was refilled by a worker. Even though the place was full my order was taken right away and food came out promptly. For a moment, my chest started to stick out a little bit and I got a bit big headed. Perhaps the staff has mistaken me for some D list celebrity or something of that nature? The dining spot is a low key Hollywood dine spot so surely this was the case. Then I looked around and realized everyone else was getting stunning service…….
Then it occurred to me that I wasn’t the King of Hollywood at all but I was being treated at a restaurant with a staff that actually cares about customer service and it’s customers. This is one of the most rare things you can find a dining spot in Hollywood. If you wanted to be treated properly and eat amazing food then this is your spot. I cannot comment on parking because I walk to this location but it doesn’t seem like too much of a hassle.
When it is raining you can do delivery until 3:00am and it’s the best late night post club dining you will find in Hollywood with a great location. If you haven’t been to this place yet the only question to ask yourself is why not?

I went to visit one of my favorite people I worked on the Slide America project this weekend before leaving for Vegas Drift. Our stop was at Livesockets Distribution to see Thuy as he held an open house for new his location in Santa Fe Springs. I picked up some videos while checking out the new operation including this WRC Final Stage DVD. I just finished watching this amazing DVD and got caught up on the end of the 2007 rally series. WRC is no longer aired on American television so this is the only way for rally fans to stay in tune with the series outside the Internet.
The DVD really got me pumpe about rally after watching the Japan stage which was just pure mayhem! Sebastian Loeb really put on a great show across all three stages until the end of Wales. Sadly WRC won’t be heading to Mexico in 2009 so I probably won’t be catching a round next year but I am pumped and cannot wait for Thuy’s 2008 DVD series to come out so I can stay in tune to everything going on in WRC.
The third of my more four installments is up over at UrbanRacer. We hit the Cadillac ranch in Texas, an abandoned hotel in New Mexico, and the open road. Don’t miss some great photos and memories I typed up in this article.
The latest PM Lifestyle project is called Luxury Vice where we feature and talk about cars over the $60,000 MSPR threshold. I am giving my personal blog readers an exclusive peak into the website. The homepage isn’t even live yet but we are building content daily so you can check it out and follow our progress here. Please throw any feedback to me in the blog comments or things you would like to see. Thanks for your support everybody!
Will Roegge flew out to Atlanta and came on the drive to Los Angeles and probably had no idea what he was getting himself into. Four days later we wound up in Los Angeles and I got moved into my new place already. He did a great job capturing some good memories of our travels except cut all the good stuff about aliens because he doesn’t believe in them…but Will is still good by me, he will believe one day. Check out the video and stay peeled to UrbanRacer as more of the story goes live soon.
For day two we rolled out of Mississippi and found this abandoned motel called the Journey Motel Court and did a mini photo shoot that is on Urbanracer.
This photo I snapped on a local highway in Arkansas as we detoured and explored around Little Rock, Arkansas.
Then in Oklahoma we caught the sunset right off I-40 and camped out for the night. Day 3 of the trip we really hit the open roads and have some fun in our G37 which is right around the corner. To read the full day two story just head on over to UrbanRacer.com or click this link: http://www.urbanracer.com/articles/anmviewer.asp?a=3568&z=2
The first day was a short one due to some horrible weather in Mississippi. Before leaving I had to have a last meal of just some southern food goodness which I scored at Daddy D’z, I recommend it to any Atlanta traveler.
After finally leaving Atlanta we headed east on I-20 until veering off at night on Alabama 78. Then quickly onto the future 22 and into Tunica, Mississippi. Here are some snaps from along the way.
Would love to hear any feedback on photos/story at Urban by comments on the blog. You can read my full story over at Urbanracer.com by going to this link:
Well I had been trying to hold off on making any announcements on the blog here until UrbanRacer got our story up and we figured out everything that was going on. In what is one of the most unplanned/unorganized cross country moves ever I am pretty much going to pack the Infiniti G37 and bring only what I can fit in it (nothing) for my initial trip to California. This is part of a phase to migrate PM Lifestyle x Wrecked Magazine out to the west coast but all that will be a slow boring process that we should spare details on.
Bob over at UrbanRacer.com was awesome enough to walk around with me at the LA Auto Show and I pitched him the idea to cover my cross country travels and document the whole experiment and he went for it. The story up right now is a starter to post showing where I will be traveling and my car preparation. I leave in about 48 hours and will be pumping stories out to UrbanRacer every night once we find a Starbucks (no hotels, living in the Infiniti) for three days.
Make sure you read the introduction story and keep your eyes peeled to the UrbanRacer website for all of our updates as I trek across America.
