Q's New Era Hachiroku Ryan's SW11

Past Projects

In the fall of 2001 Ryan and I started assembling and modifying cars together.  All started in different forms, some from scratch, others from near full build requiring only tweaking and tuning.  Nevertheless, all of these cars have been ours… we have a tendency to go through a lot:  lots that never even made mention here, and some that I spent hours writing and thinking about.  It is some form of A.D.D…. really.  In the first few years after we teamed up, neither of us managed to make it through a single season with one car.  They came and went. Mostly it was because we liked to dream, but it was also partly because there was always someone willing to buy.  Cash just looks so good.

Note: These charts are for fun.  Don’t confuse them for us being hard core and bad ass.  Check it out.

One more year has ended… or close to it. This Saturday, September 2nd, marks the last D-sport competition of the year, and the Monday following is the last CSCC auto-x of the year. At least that’s the official stuff, but following are numerous fun events that benefit from fall weather, or at lest that’s how I think. Either way, my […]

2006 Season End?

I will keep driving AE86. This week was a thoughtful week. Thought one was buying a third AE86, one that is for sale locally and equipped with an AE111 20V, as well as a good selection of footwork parts. The price was fair, and this is a purchase I would recommend to anyone looking for a moderate tune AE86, however, […]

Fickle like a …

When I started driving AE86, over 8 years ago now, I would have said the best part about AE86 life, was the strong sense of community and family among other AE86 owners. Back then, there were maybe 5 or 6 guys in Calgary who drove and loved AE86. Club4ag was tiny, and almost everyone knew everyone else by name. Mind […]

FOR SALE

Sunday was a special day. I may end up celebrating with a long drive through the mountains… I’ll say more later. Recent auto-x results have shown me something… all this improving I thought I’d done, really didn’t happen. My 2nd overall PAX at my first event back was a fluke. I’ve been DFL… or at least close to it, at […]

My Future Wife

I was ready to buy a GTR on Wednesday… but it never happened. I think… (at least I feel this way today) that I’m going to keep driving AE86. A GTR is amazing… but here’s the thing with AE86. I’ve been driving AE86 over the past 8 years, believing the car was superior to all others. There were times I […]

BNR32 Bail

Everything is a blur. The monstrosities of life have overwhelmed me. Stay cool and keep your wits. My camera died. Vancouver was difficult. I drove like shit. I did nothing except embarrass myself, and I let the difficult parts of life destroy what could have been good. Nevertheless, stronger friendships have been formed. I have new goals in driving, and […]
