One of my good friends, Jason Hopkins, just blind-sided me (here) with some of the kindest, most flattering words I’ve heard in a minute. I go wayyy back with this dude. Jason is currently residing in Texas rocking out as Creative Director at Dallas’ Slingshot. I’m hella proud of him. Not only is he a super-creative… the guy can also lay down impeccable beats and could scratch his way off the island of Alcatraz during a zombie tsunami. His skill is that sharp, that precise, and THAT DEADLY.
Rumor has it he is starting to dive into the realms of video and compositing?!
I for one… cannot wait.

Rod asked me if I would like to write a ‘Guest Blog’ on Speedhunters, which is now live on the site!
Carlos “Panda” Richard and Cody “Coco” Wellons helped me immensely with the photography for the feature. We shot the car inside the walls of Oakland Cemetary, which is as visually stunning as it is historically significant.
Big thanks to Carlos and Cody for the snaps, and to Rod for the opportunity!
I got underneath the car this evening, and with the help of David Jones… we got the diff assemble pulled from the rear-subframe. I can’t find my drain pan anywhere to relieve the pumpkin of it’s gear oil… so I will have to wait to crack the diff cover off and see what kind of carnage awaits inside. From the sounds of it… I don’t think it will be very pretty.
I can’t believe that 3 years ago I met you for the first time. I also can’t believe that you agreed to get in my car for a victory burnout – when I didn’t have a passenger seat! You’re an amazing girl, and I’m SO glad you’re a part of my life… and that I’m a part of yours!
