New Tools for the Shop

Mastercraft just sent their shipment of a ton of new tools to the shop. Perfect timing, the Beamer is going to need them!

Crashed my 528i!!

After an unfortunate series of events on some side streets in Toronto, I managed to run my BMW 528i off the road and into a hedge row. Luckily, no one was hurt, but the Beamer was scraped up real bad. Ill have to take it back to the shop and see if I can straighten out some of the damaged body work. From the looks of it, the frame was fine; I missed that tree by a whisker!! The mailbox wasnt so lucky though. Police came and I had to take a breathalizer test just to make sure, but I dont drink and drive! Just an unfortunate turn of events that ended in a chipped concrete curb and a battered up Beamer.

A day at the track

The Civic ZC came out to play this week for the Canadian Tire Parking Lot Dash 2012. Held down at the Queensway Canadian Tire, this year there was a great turn out. Lots of Honda’s, Nissans and a few Muscle cars showed up for the event. I had a great time whipping around the the little Hatchback!

Rally Sponsorship with Marino’s Fine Motors

Today is a great day to be Rally Racing here in Ontario. Our friends over at Marino’s Fine Motors has signed a sponsorship agreement with us for the next 2 seasons, and in doing so, has opened a whole new world of opportunities. With fund lacking in recent months due to aggressive driving on Eric Vanderwals part, we have had to replace many parts, setting us back a new thousand dollars. No matter, the stellar driving has paid off in the form of a cooperative partnership with Marino’s Fine Motor’s. Expect a new paint job with even more badass decals in the near future!

Eric, Sven and the Boys over at Marino’s Fine Motors!
