Bon Voyage

Bill’s “Coral Killer” is on it’s way to Japan. It got loaded into a spacious container with just the Lightning Bug and a Custom Motorcycle, no double stacking on this trip! As you can see from the photo’s, The real BRM’s are on with a set of sweet cheater slicks and beautifully polished. A couple of shots show Bill in the process of hermetically sealing the wheels in an attempt to keep the sea air away from the Mags.  Scott snuck in the spy cam to get a couple of shots (before his next mission we’ll teach him how to hold it steady). For those of you wishing to attend the 21st YOKOHAMA HOT ROD Custom Show 2012, Advance tickets are on sale for a cool 3300 Yen. Details at http://yokohamahotrodcustomshow.com/en/

Drag Day Report… sort of?

Stephan, Scott and myself showed up early for Drag day at our usual breakfast spot where we were joined by Original Members, Dennis DeMarco and Mike Mahaffey (Mike was sporting his new toy, a late model Ghia) for the cruise to Irwindale. Once at the track, we ran into Bill, Fabien and Russell. Scott Bakken was also spotted peddling parts, rather than racing for a change. Those of us that did show up, witnessed a less than spectacular day of swapping and racing in the late October heat. But as usual, we all had a good time and it was a good excuse to get together, eat, drink and laugh.

Here’s the poor excuse of a photo report,  the first 5 shots are from the Thursday Night Test-N-Tune, the last is a video tease from Sunday:

 

October surprise…

The monthly DKP business meeting conducted from a super secret location was going as planned, on schedule when Hector Bonilla arrived carrying a bag of DKP loot!
In the spirit of showing appreciation for the support and friendship of his DKP brothers during recent hard times, he had these bitchen key chains made up for all the members. A very cool gesture from a very cool dude! Thanks again Hector from all of us!


Here’s a short video of the usual suspects leaving super secret meeting place for the short blast to Nick’s:
