Well we made it through Day 1 at SEMA. After a 6 A.M. direct flight from Newark to Las Vegas we headed directly to the Las Vegas Convention Center. Now, the first day trek into the show is always the worst. Why? Because we could not just simply cut through the show. So, we were all forced to walk all the way around the outside of the Convention Center and the chaos was definitely out there! After all that was said and done we got our badges and did a quick run through the show. Check out the photos and commentary after the jump!
I’m not sure how I let this one slip by but here it is. Our 2008 Formula 1 Champ!

Well SEMA is only two days away and while we really don’t do anything special to prepare for SEMA, we do think about how the show will turn out. Especially during the troubled times we are in today, consumers tighten up on spending and Companies tighten up on overhead costs. I just checked out www.Speedhunters.com and saw a post from my man Antonio about www.Riceboytv.com coming to end due to insufficient project funding. This is sad news indeed, I hope we don’t hear anymore bad news during the week. Stay tuned for my daily blogs at the 2008 SEMA Show!
God Bless Jalopnik for putting this picture up and it appears that the rumors were true about the shape. It has more of the old Datsun feel to it, which I like. If you are on the West Coast, you can check the car out in person at the LA Auto Show on Nov. 19th

By the looks of the graphics it seems like Tanner Foust retired the 350z for a Scion TC. As you all know the TC is a FF car but in japan there is a car with the same chassis code that is rear wheel drive. The RS*R team was the first team to use the Scion TC which is piloted by Kenshiro Gushi and the Rockstar TC will be using the same mechanics as Kenshiro car. For more click here
Sorry for the delay on this one, this one went under the radar due to our track day. So last Thursday we got invited to the 10 year anniversary of the game that goes hand in hand with the term “driving simulator.” If you don’t know the name of the game shame on you! It’s Grand Turismo… The event was hosted by Grand Turismo and Staple (a high fashion clothing company) at the Classic Car Club of Manhattan in NYC. Continue reading ‘Downshift Sessions 2008′
