Who Run It.


Well, it's show season again and every trip up is nothing less than an adventure. This one was no different as it was scheduled right in the middle of a winter snowstorm that was hitting East PA. I was hesitant to make the mission albeit solo with no place to stay. However, I just got jumped into a new team: http://t-emotion.com/ They are nothing short of car scene royalty and I'm hyped to rep.

Well, the drive started out uneventful, but slowly turned into a nightmare. Halfway into the trip, I was informed that the main road I was supposed to drive on, had been closed for the past few days with black iced roads, many many accidents and numerous people stranded in their cars. Some shit straight out of the weather channel. What was supposed to be a 3 hour drive took about 8 hours as I had to drive down towards Philly then back NorthWest to Harrisburg. Holla.

But the show made it all worth it as I got to meet a grip of new heads & bitches, copped a trophy, and saw some craze. The car show was a small part of a big event that hosted an indoor dirt RC track the size of a high schol gym, a paved shifter car track, and a Supercross track! Straight bananas. While most shows we are bored out of out minds, here there was so much to do. We would just grab a Cheezsteak, a BUD, and do our best Redneck impression and blended right in. It was surreal to have some of the most impressive JDM tuned cars and triple jumping moto heads all in the same complex.
