The FC3S RX7 is featured in the August issue of Modified magazine. It should be hitting the news-stands now and those with subscriptions should already have it.

Photos were taken by Tracy of Prozak & Tonic. Check out his site and look, my car made into his portfolio - hooray!

Special thanks to all those that helped and the people that are really pissed off that I parted it out. Means I did half the job right. Hopefully this makes room for smaller and better things in the future.

For all those that purchased parts, thanks and someone buy my Eurolines… jeeeesh!

For those that don’t know Logan of Hngloose and OG Made, this is his car - he is the originator of the dookie colored drift mobile.

His updated look with DMax Roof Wing, GP Hatch Wing and tucked 18’s makes me go ga-ga. The best part is - he drifts it.

Many things that are great are green… the Celtics, cash money, trees and this car. Not as cool as his previous green, but still alright.

It reminds of something from a Mythbusters episode and it makes me want to say, “They’re always after me lucky charms.”

The wheels are looking fresh-to-death but, why even bother masking the tires when you are just going to burn them up anyways?

The green is so radical that it makes cameras lose focus. Might work on those speed tramps… try it for me will ya?

It’s a nice temporary fix… temporary… fix.

On a side note, please bid on my Work Euroline DH’s now on Ebay.

It’s resting at a junkyard in Rockford, IL in case anyone wanted to salvage any of the glass. I also included a passenger seat, junk turbo and manifold, irons, and a rotor. Good pickings!

Yesterday morning as I was leaving for work, I noticed a bird harassing my neighbor’s car. Not dropping white bombs, but looking at itself in the reflection. Luckily I was able to get a shot - not a great one but still.

That got me to wondering if anyone has every put a two way mirror with a camera behind it and sat it out in nature with a motion sensor. Sort of like the trunk cam.

So, I recently was reviewing the Toyota website and suprisingly in their concept vehicles section was the Crown Concept.

Does it mean it will get produced… it probably will since they already have the line in asia. Will it actually come to the U.S.? Hopefully.

D1 kicked off this season at the repaved Ebisu course.

Some new machines were debuted and some had their final showing.

A few things that stood out was that the footage is now in 16:9 widescreen format.

The one car that really got my attention was the Toyota Crown by Bee*R driven by Tokita.

Some additional footage of “Smokey” Nagata’s V12 Supra was amazing and look forward to the next video.

Taniguchi will be returning with his HKS Altezza and many new machines will be debuting.

I have listed many parts for sale from the ‘poop mobile’. I appreciate everyone’s interest but please, remember I am in central time so getting messages at 2:30 a.m. made me shut off my im forwarding.

 Ugh.

I moved to the Chicago area about two years ago but up till now, have never really been to the city. So, I had an opportunity to tag along as a tourist, so to speak.

I live in the northwest suburbs so we took the Metra. Cost was $4.30 but be prepared to add $2 to that if you pay for the ticket on the train and not before hand.

First stop was the Sear’s Tower. Going to the observation deck is fast and well, it is a great way to see the city. The picture above includes the John Hancock Center and the new Trump International Hotel & Tower.

Next stop was Millenium Park to visit the “Cloud Gate“, but everyone I know calls it “The Bean”.

Also part of the park is Jay Pritzker Pavillion.

Ended the evening eating some Indian food from the India House.

Still a lot of places to go.
