Mini Chevrolet V8 Engine

Mini Chevy V8

This is so cool except for the front mounted distributor which to my knowledge was never on Chevrolets. It is on the Buicks, and Oldmobiles. As a car nut and gear head you can't deny the coolness of little engine.

Crown Works Garage - SEMA 2011

On my trip to Las Vegas last month which was the week before SEMA, I found out that my homie Tony P. of Crown Works Garage in California was on his way in to Las Vegas for the SEMA show. He drove in the day I was leaving Las Vegas for Hawaii and with destiny and luck in the works. I was able to see my homie for a bit before my flight back. He previously told me about his wagon that he was showcasing in SEMA and I wanted to see it and off course him before I leave. Though it seemed that it was slim that I would be able to see my homie before I leave, luck would have it that I and my family was able to see him even for an hour.

So to make a long story short. I got to see my homie and his sick ride. I know he wouldn't disappoint 'cus I know he does quality work. Sure enough I see the ride and I was blown away... DHAYM!... see for yourself below.

You really gotta know us to know our history. We go deep in the game.

Side profile.

Rear shot. Peep the graphics and the mint interior.

Graphics continues to the dashboard.

Airbags w/ Accuair components...

He kept the stock 283 engine with his custom touches on it.

This roof is where you get to see his masterpiece.

One of the few coverages he got and the final look with all the necessary touches and the sick stance.

Discover DJ – new toy

This right here is Ion’s Discover DJ Computer DJ System that retails for about $110. I’ve had my eyes set on these since last year and thought it would be something good for my arsenal. I know what y’all are thinking, yes it looks like a toy and yes its not really that accurate, and yes its for minor/newbie DJs. I don’t disagree with you, but then again I do not call myself a DJ nor even dream of becoming one. I for one just needed something that can do the job that I needed it to do, simply just blend and a little bit of scratching, looping, droppin mixes. This is one that will definitely come in handy with a lot of visual projects that will be coming in the near future. But I did not want to fork out $100 for it only to be disappointed. So I kind of forgot about it…

Until yesterday while shopping at Toys R Us and I bumped in to this stack with an awesome price tag.

Do you see the price of this thing? Now tell me how in hell could you pass up on this deal? So I took it home, and immediately tried to play with it. I also started to reflect on my research on this from last year. I started to do more research on it and checked the YouTube vids and seen people’s comments on it. Yes, I agree with a lot of them vids and at the same time amazed at what some people or DJs can do with it.

Here’s an example of one and this happens to be the best one that I’ve seen so far.

Real talk, for the price compared to its capability… I say its worth it.

Pedal power

temporary paint job. be on the look for this one.

pimp status.

Here's some pics of my Pedal Car project. I haven't touched this since I got it. Decided to finally do something with this. Right now its on a temporary state. Will definitely lather this with candy purple or something.

So keep an eye out for this one...

As we all now by now that Japan is now needing our help more than ever. With the massive earthquake then the devestating tsunami and now the on-going radioactive problem that they are now going through. Let us keep in mind that these events are affecting us as well. If you haven't felt or seen the affects yet you will soon. You will soon with the electronics and food goods. Its already starting with some of Japan foods and now the Japanese cars and electronics.

So you want to do something about it? There are many ways. Straight up is donations to the many organizations but the main one that sticks is the Red Cross. Second is purchasing the many T-shirts that has been generated where all profits or portions are being donated to the Red Cross. Even donating blankets, pillows, clothes, etc...

One great and unique way to help out and even knock it all in one location is at the Helluvarides.com / Podium Raceway Car Show & Race on April 17th at Podium Raceway parking lot and track. Go to helluvarides.com for more information.


My team members and I, Team SliDeways Hawaii will be there helping out. We will be hosting the open track for RC Drifting. We will also be hosting a competition to win a hpi.racing Switch Scion xB kit (details soon). Thank you to Marshall L. for the kit and hpi.racing. We are still deciding on either a Random Drawing, Tandem Drift, or Body Comp to win the kit. Check out our Team SliDeways Hawaii facebook page for updates.

Bad Boys II - The Date Scene

This scene right here is f'n timeless. I know most of my peeps that have daughters knows about this scene. I know I will definitely do this when its my turn. But instead of a .45 piece, I will be showing em a 50 cal. bullet and engraver. So that I can engrave the dude's name on the bullet in front of em. Some of my boys already know this scene by heart.

I know I'm not the only father that takes this scene to heart. Its funny but hits home for most dads.

The Great White Project

DMF's - Great White

Yokomo S13 Shell and Rays/Volks wheels.

Here's my 1st replica project for the year. I was suppose to do this last year but haven't had the time to do it. I had much more important projects to do first.

I'd like to thank DMF Drift for providing me the livery files. Also Jason of Team Saiko for trading with me for the shell and for holding the light buckets for me. Last but certainly not the least is my fellow Slideways teammate, RC Jay for getting the wheels for me.

I don't really have much about this build right now so be on the look out for this build.

Check out DMF Drift for more info. and also their DMF's facebook page.

First of, I would like to thank AndyH and hpi.racing for this really generous gift. I was so honored and blessed to be one of few to have the opportunity to custom paint this shell. I don't know what I did to deserve this honor but I am taking it... thank you once again AndyH.

Now on to the Camaro.

Here's the real Chevy Camaro Hankook Tire Drift car.

And here is my 1/10 scale replica of it. Video of it in action will be done soon on my hpi.racing fully customized E10 Countersteer chassis.

Thank You .... Up-Grade RC

I would like to thank my sponsor Up-Grade RC for these great products that I am starting off with. I'll be sure to get more products to use and promote as they are great products and I love how you can customize them. As you can see on my controller and charger with my name "Felgood" on them. I also requested to add my favorite brands on them too... HPI and Hot Bodies. They were easy to apply and they looked great and feels really durable. So again thank you for the sponsorship and I hope to make you guys proud...
