Goodies from Import Bible! I love cars, but I’m not massive about wearing cars on my chest (hey I love cats too but I don’t own any crazy cat jumpers!), but I like Import Bible gear. Smart concepts for those who know, that kinda thing.

Love the heart breaker T, especially the subtle front print. Love the Gentleman’s Agreement T as it’s one of the first things you learn about the BNR32 when you’re on the hunt to know more about them.

In 2013 I test drove the first widebody Vorsteiner GTRS for Motor Magazine. Ramspeed built the car (they also built my Supercharged R32 Golf). The first time I went to test drive it, the car wasn’t set up right; it was scrubbing so bad in corners that we had to postpone the test until they sorted the alignment out, a week later Sydney based Photographer Matthew Everingham and I were out at Ramspeed again and this time we took the car out for a VERY long shoot and drive, on everyday roads, highways and twisties too (we even tested the widebody in a McDonalds drive through!).

The concept was for Motor Magazine to start opening up their pages to modified car culture. Unfortunately the new editor at the time ended up losing his job, and thew new editor who replaced him hasn’t been in touch with us to do more collaborative work.

Pretty stoked to confirm that we’ve secured the huge Sydney Dragway carpark for EOMM again for every month in 2016!!!!!!!!!!

Such a huge relief! Massive thanks to all at Sydney Dragway for the space, and understanding the importance of having a safe place for car enthusiasts to meet and hang out in (love you guys lots, but if we can make entry free, or half price, that would be even better!!!). Massive thanks goes out to the Motorculture team for much of the EOMM behind the scenes and making my dreams a reality. Here’s to a huge year of massive car meets!

And it’s a wrap!!! The car was finished late Friday night. 5am Saturday I was up and ready to pick up the car from Concept Garage out West, then on to the big reveal at End Of Year Festival. The car got a lot of praise! The wrap design polarises people, but that was to be expected!

EA had their 360 film crew at EOYF so look out for a wrap up video soon! In the meantime, check out more photos (taken by Sam Law of 300-CPO at EOYF) of the car here.
