Feature: Fatlace II

Allow me to quickly refresh your memory, about a month ago I had the opportunity to tour the Fatlace headquarters in San Francisco. However, we have been so busy around here lately that I haven’t been able to get to this.

WWW: Building Character

Lately, I have been taking more pictures than I can keep up with. I mostly fear that I won’t be able to keep up with what I am shooting and that the posts will suffer. What I really mean is that I recently got to shoot some things that I have always wanted to shoot but I have been so busy that I haven’t been able to share them.

WWW: Nothing Wacky About This

The internet pretty much shows us just how small our world is. That statement is especially true in the world of cars. With a few clicks of our pointing device we can visit Japan and see what’s up. Another click can show us the latest emerging trends coming from the West coast or the immaculate street styles from the East Coast. Every so often a hidden gem gets pushed into the lime light and the internet lights up.

Speedlace?

I came across this article a while ago.  It pertains to two things that I am a fan of, the first being Speedhunters and the second  being the good people over at Fatlace.  Mark Arcenal from Fatlace has recently starting organizing the “Word Up” events.  “Word up” is a sweet little grassroots event that provides a drift venue to drivers of almost every skill level.  Anyway, Speedhunters sent Linhbergh Nguyen to cover the event and in the true spirit of “Word up,”  he got behind the wheel to drift for the first time ever.

Random Find: Good read…

So this month Speedhunters has been doing interviews with individuals in the automotive world. I was pumped when I saw that they had done one with Mark Arcenal. For those of you who are not familiar with Mark, he is the owner of Fatlace and creator of the Hellaflush blog amongst many other things. This interview gives a great deal of insight into the often misrepresented movement while adding a sense of legitimacy.
