Hey blasterfans! As you may have noticed, the pages of LB have been devoid of my journalistic stylings since
my retrospective 2011 post back in December.
Did you miss me? I've been working hard for the past few months on my
real job, drift event promotion, but last weekend I made a road-trip to Salt Lake City, Utah, for the Krishna festival of colors, and I'm coming back to grace the pages…

While digging through thousands (okay, hundreds maybe) of my photos from this year, I came upon this conclusion: I need to either take way more photos or stop altogether. That being said, here is a compilation of not the greatest photos, but rather the greatest moments of 2011 that I happened to capture with my picture taking device. Shown above is an upset Chinese toddler whose stupid mother purchased the wrong flavor instant soup.…

Last Saturday night, a friend of mine told me that there was going to be a zombie crawl in Alameda that night.
Of course I was down, but for starters what the hell is a zombie crawl?

Every few months Frank Siharath from Garage Boso comes up to Performance Options in Oakland to do some ECU tuning on NorCal cars. This time, Pat Mordaunt drove up with Frank and took a few moments from his busy day to let me interview him. Thanks Pat!

AYALA - Yeah! Drift Evolution starts again! This is the 4th round out of 6 this year. The event seems to bring more and more interest with every event, bringing drivers from all along the west coast. Justin wasn't taking any chances driving his unregistered and uninsured car to this event as he had in the past. So he had it towed by the Tandem of Die support vehicle, Joseph Shreeve's Chevy Luv.

So after our little escapade down in Portland, Justin, Geoff and I woke up at the crack of noon, very hungover, packed our shit in Geoff's S14 (no homo) and jammed up for Seattle for the driftings! It was as uncomfortable as you think.

Geoff was a very busy man this event. On top of his regular spotting duties…

After a last minute engine-out job on my S14 at Luke Lonberger's shop, Blu808, I was ready for the trip to FD Evergreen. I started the voyage by picking up my blaster pal Joe Ayala at his swanky apartment in San Francisco at 6:00am on Tuesday.

This post contains the results of me shooting a roll of my
favorite film, cheap-ass Fuji 800, and a roll of expired Kodak Gold 400 over the past week. Saturday night Drew and I got a call from our friend Chloe who had just aced an important test for her major. She wanted us to meet her at a spot
really far from Hayward for drinks. "They have a polar bear!"…

Happy Holidays from everyone here at LifeBlasters! You might be spending this three day weekend kicking back and enjoying some BBQ, and time with family & friends, but here at LifeBlasters and Lab17 the work never stops. Today Drew and I put up drywall in the garage of his newly purchased home in Hayward, and now we're at the Lab working our butts off before tomorrow's TD ProAm Round 3. We've made windshield banners, number plates, hard cards, LB…

Drew and I first shot Jimi Hendrix at The Bistro in Hayward. We had just left Buffalo Bill's and were skateboarding around looking for stuff to blast [
and a place that served something besides beer and wine --Bohan], and we heard music playing. We said to each other "Hmm, that sounds like Jimi Hendrix." As we skated closer and peeked inside the venue we were in shock. "Holy shit! It actually
is Jimi!"
