Quoc Ly.
Our friend Quoc Ly has been building his personal race car for 2010 and until the last minute the car is finally finished. This is his second black s13 coupe, and it use to be his daily. Quoc's car are always built well, run great, and always feels like he has the most powerful naturally aspirated KA24DE Engine in the world. His S13s gives me the most amazing feelings, I know its because he puts a lot of heart into his cars. There is never one thing lacking, no matter what it is.
Today is the first time I actually saw pictures of his car from driftfotos.com. It is the first time I've seen him put an S13 Silvia front end on his own car haha. And I must say it's almost nostalgic. It is so cool seeing something like this. I totally love the things he has done to the car, the PINK wheels, non projectors are amazing! But check out his JDM Zenki turnsignals! WHEN HAVE YOU EVER SEEN THIS! He has always told me that he wanted to run those turnsignals. I know these are small details but I don't know why I am getting so into it LOL.
Today was also qualifying for the Xtreme Drift Circuit. Our hometown drift hero, Quoc Ly qualified FIRST! HOLLLLER! (federal, nankang, nexen, yokohama, toyo, falken, maxxis, yes holler!)
So please go out and support him at Irwindale today. You are my hero :)

Hometown Hero
As kids there were a few ways of transportation, your bicycle, your feet, or your skateboard. Bikes were still pretty expensive, walking was way too slow hahaha. It seemed like skateboards were most used by the kids in my neighborhood. I grew up riding skateboards with all my friends. It was big, it was cool, we skated everywhere. Parking lots, our famous local high schools, where ever we could. If we got kicked out there were other places to go.
Well, growing up in Garden Grove, our hometown hero was none other than Pat Channita. Our parents knew each other and we hung out with the Channita family all the time. I remember hella kids would show up on Jackson street to see Pat skate on these spray painted benches and boxes, while DJ Thicks was on the turntables hahah. I think the best part was when he gave us his old skateboards, bomb ass stickers, and making fun of us. HAHAHA.
Paying homage to one of the Greats of Garden Grove, CA. Pat Channita. This is the 411VM issue 34. Check out his new video on YouTube! He still doing intricate flips on ya.
