My Videos from the Mobil 1 NASCAR All-Star Weekend in Charlotte

May 28th, 2010

Here is a video of a twin turbo Lamborghini Gallardo pulling out of Underground Racing in Charlotte, North Carolina. The car throws some revs that sound fantastic as it pulls out of the shop. This car ran 241mph at Texas Mile.

Here is a video from Michael Waltrip Racing in North Carolina. This was shot from the floor of the shop while we received and all access tour. They have quite an impressive operation over at MWR which run Toyota Camry’s in the Sprint Cup Series.

Here is a quick video of a race restart from our seats during the NASCAR All-Star race. Lowes Motor Speedway is not one of my favorite tracks but the shoot out style NASCAR race keeps the track entertaining. Enjoy the three videos uploaded and I have more content coming from the NASCAR All-Star weekend soon.

Updating My Toy Shelf in the Living Room

May 19th, 2010

Car

I bought a ton of new toys for my shelf recently and had to rearrange everything yesterday. With that being said I decided to document/blog about the upgrades to my living room shelf. I am going to add a new shelf soon to expand the collection. Soon, I am going to pick up all my old toy cars from when I was a little kid to add onto the shelf as well.

Mercedes-Benz CLK GTR Maisto Model Car
I bought a Assembly Line Mercedes-Benz CLK GTR from Maisto which was a blast to build. This is my favorite Mercedes made in history so it was great to add to the shelf with gold wheels.

Kyle Busch - Cup Garage - Toy Shelf

Here is my Kyle Busch cup garage collection. My three large die cast cars are his #18 M&M car, Snickers Car (First Toyota to win NASCAR cup race), and the Vote M&M car. I am working on getting some more #18 car stuff for this section.

Kyle Busch - Toy Shelf

This is my other Kyle Busch garage for non cup die cast cars. The Doosan #20 Nationwide car won the Corona, Mexico event back in April 2008 with Kyle Busch behind the wheel. The #51 Electric Sunglasses car is Kyle Busch’s Prelude of a Dream car. The #30 NOS Energy Drink car in the middle is actually Stanton Barrett’s old Nationwide car from 2008 signed by him on the roof.

Falken Tire - Drifting Pits

Here is my Falken Tire Pit that I mocked up with some products I have collected over the years. I just got this sweet Falken Tire rig thanks to my friends over at Falken Tire recently! You can actually buy the Calvin Wan Infiniti G35 or Vaughn Gittin Jr. Ford Mustang die cast in our store.

Hot Wheels Cars

Here are some small Hot Wheels cars I have including a Nissan GT-R, Flat Black Lamborghini Gallardo, Tesla Roadster, a Hummer H2 that Toyo Tires gave us at MPMC, and Sam Hubinette’s Dodge Charger you can score in our Wrecked Magazine store as well.

Mazda 787B

The 1991 Le Mans winner was the Mazda 787B seen here that won the 24 Hours of Le Mans back in 1991. This was the last Japanese car to win the 24 Hour Le Mans race to this date in history. Bob Hernandez actually gave me this car at my Photo Gallery back in March and I jut love it.

Automotive Magazines

Here are some of my car magazines including some Super Street issues back from 2002. A full collection of C-16 Magazine, and a bunch of random Japanese magazines like StyleWagon and VIP Style.

Living Room - Toy Shekf

Here is the first shelf all together and complete for now. I am going to get a second shelf going soon and I need some more magazines! Let me know what you think.

NASCAR this weekend: Race to the Chase

September 12th, 2009

So tonight is Richmond International Raceway which is the final race before the chase and “playoffs.” Richmond is a 3/4 mile D shaped track made of asphalt. The stadium fits just over 112,000 people and people will be glued to the television to see who will make the chase.

With Monza this weekend in Formula 1 and the Richmond race tonight it’s a weekend full of some great racing we cannot wait to come on television. My favorite NASCAR driver and the most hated man on the track Kyle Busch currently sits in 14th place. By my numbers it would appear he must finish in front of Brian Vickers by 3 positions and Matt Kenseth by 7 positions. This is going to be a great race weekend for fans so stay tuned to your television.

2009 MATS show with Mobil DELVAC

March 27th, 2009

MATS stands for the Mid America Truck Show which is essentially the SEMA for truckers. We flew into Louisville, Kentucky for a four day shoot at the conference with Mobil 1 Delvac. Mobil 1 had one of the best looking and busiest booths at the whole show. They had Sam Hornish Jr’s #77 Penske/Mobil 1 Dodge inside the booth with a NASCAR simulator as well.

I met a trucker with over 4,000,000 miles on his rig who was an owner/operator. He has a business card that says “Professional Clown” and he was making little balloons for people. We put in a request for a more adult focused project and we got this! Some amazing skill in this design right here. I watched him do it and have no idea what he did to have these come together.

To close out the festivites Mobil Delvac threw a huge concert and invited thousands of people to come and enjoy the show. Krista Marie opened the show and then Halfway to Hazard kept the energy going inside the stadium. After a quick intermissions Aaron Tippin came out and headlined the show playing some of his most well known hits.

Here is a photograph of Aaron Tippin and myself before the concert backstage. I wish I took more pictures in Kentucky but I really dropped the ball while out of town. I did do a couple Yelp reviews you can check out:

NASCAR Craftsman Truck E-Z-Go 200 – Ready to get Rowdy!

October 24th, 2008

While I need a minute break from SEMA preparations the NASCAR series has rolled into our home here in Atlanta, Georgia for the weekend. I decided to buck the trend of normal NASCAR zealotry and attend the truck race only for the weekend. As all of our NASCAR pals roll into the city for the weekend we are pumped to entertain all our guests here in Atlanta. With the rain pouring down currently at AMS it looks to be a busy weekend at the PM Lifestyle office in the city since no one will have much to do. We are pumped tomorrow to watch Kyle drive his way to another victory at Atlanta Motor Speedway!

The Monster Mile takes another one!

September 22nd, 2008

The fall race at Dover ended up being a very different song from the Spring race for the few Kyle Busch fans in the world. With the worst start for him since the Chase began in Loudin I just cannot even bring myself to admit what has happened. Our empire on top since Atlanta was whipped clean two weeks ago and it appears Jack Rousch has been feeding lady luck. The only enjoyment really from the whole Dover race was when Kyle’s motor blew he radio’d his spotter Jeff in a comical fashion and just started yelling “were on fire….we are on fire, WOOOOOOOOOO.” They tried to ride the damaged piston out but shortly after the car was pulled into th garage and Busch finds himself 12th in the Chase.

This has to be a frustrating time for everyone at Joe Gibbs and KBM as the perfect season has quickly become anything but that. I will admit watching the whole Rouch team battling at the end was some of the best racing I have seen out of NASCAR in a long long time, it’s just a shame they all didn’t crash on the last lap in a blaze of glory taking out the whole field allowing Michael Waltrip to take home a win, that would of been the most amazing evening in NASCAR history for sure. Hopefully Kyle can change the karma up for Kansas this weekend and start gaining ground back in the Chase!
