Whats up guys/gals. We are starting a blog/mothly online magazine. All exclusive coverage. Yours truly, Armando (Dittoz7), Brad from NICO, and couple of my buddies from the Eastcoast are collaborating on this. Every picture, and article is ours. You wont find it anywhere else online. Just putting the word out there. Ill be doing some advertising on NICO and also repping NICO on our site. Its going to be great. Site isnt completely done yet but Im working on it. First issue will be released in a couple weeks. Follow it, let me know what you think wheather you like it or not. Suggestions are always welcome. I havent been on much lately, been really busy. Its going to be great when we get it rolling.

Check it out GarageSpec.net

And yes, Im well aware that it isnt 100% complete yet. So dont bash it and tell me that becasue I know already. Greg, Ill give you a hollar this weekend man. Sorry I havent gotten back to you as of yet. Just working and working, you know how that is I imagine.

Thanks

-Rich

With the car show/event season coming to an end wouldn't it be smarter to wait until towards the end of the winter to start on this? What are you going to blog about during the winter months?

We've got stuff from this season, enough to do a few issues. Ive wanted to do this for a while, just came into contact with some people that have made it much easier. Ive got interviews stacked up, Itll be fine. Its not for car shows only. I was going to start it at some point and knew of the typical season slump at the end of the year. There is enough stuff going on between the half a dozen guys involved to do and see plenty of things going on around the country. I do track days till November and am always at the track somewhere. So is my buddy in New England. I think it will be good.

My outlook is this, if I worry about the off season lull I would never ben able to do it becasue its always going to be there. The reason something like this is nearly impossible to do is the lack of people on a team that are dedicated. We have that, thats why it will be awesome when we get rolling. And its a good way for us to push our photography careers as welll. A fun way to gain exposure and such. At least I think so.

Fair enough, I might be able to hook you up with some of the guys who do the club loose drift events and and some of the amateur drifters up her in the Philly area. Send me a friend request on Facebook and I'll send you recommendations.

winter in Miami, lol

Brad, just snap away bro. Id like to have that for sure. We will work something out buddy, no worries.

Chaotic, thats sounds awesome man. I will give you credit for what ever you bring to the table man. Ive got a few guys from Chicago on board thus far, and all the guys in Indianapolis. If Philly wants in, thats great too. I like more of the grassroots drifting stuff more anyways. D1 and FD are rad, but the little guys are way more fun to watch if they half way know what they are doing. I appreciate the suggestions bro. Ill get with you on FB.

Thanks again guys

Not sure if you can count that one Brother. He looks like a guy that would put a sticker of the Salad Shooter on his car if you sent it to him. And with that in mind, I'd say try it.

lmfao

He is prepping to do a cross country rally in that car. We are doing a feature in the first issue on it. Its a cool car. Lots of power, its a drift car up in Jersey. If he ends up with a "Slap Chap" sticker on it, Id prefer him take my logo off of it. lol
