SEMA and Sandy

Well that was a crazy storm i am very stoked knowing all my people back east are ok, and the ones that made it to SEMA in time were safe and I hope returning home does not present any substantial damage to their homes or places of work. Storms like sandy are really a sobering event for all people, like earth quakes, they do not care your race or financial status, if you live in the hood or in a penthouse, they come through tearing everything up that they can. The photos I have seen of damage along the north east seaboard is simply put, breathtaking, not in the beauty sense of the word but they sincerely left me at a loss for words, hundreds of millions of dollars of damage, homes and cars gone forever, and people just left in shock and awe. I would like to commend all the fire and police personnel that kept things in line. Ok, back to my reality, after receiving late notice that I'll be at SEMA on Thursday it has turned this week into a full blown shit show in both mine and Kyle's garage, his car is way close to being finished than mine will probably ever be it seems, we had an amazing road test a few weeks ago but it was done in vain as we were running it straight piped at about 3500ft above sea level, so once he is ready to try and register this thing we will have to re-tune it and all that. My m20 is coming a long nicely, but for some reason in the back of my little head I hear a voice saying 3.1, 3.1....over and over again, and I am so tempted to build that engine I have lusted after for so very long, but is it worth pushing the entire completion of the car back several months to accommodate the price and getting all the parts necessary for the build, but how does 300 reliable hp sound. Other than that I have no complaints other than ridiculous traffic lately in Los Angeles but the weather is perfect....

I can't remember to forget

about everything in my past and everything I had and lost.

I miss my buddy.

TAKE THAT WORLD

I figure a year is enough time to let things simmer, to let things come and go and to build one of the best things that has ever happened to me. This past year has been tough but amazing, new friends, new experiences,a new job and the same old dreams of being happy. Still hunting for the apex, building an amazing e21 but now I have someone, someone to bounce ideas off of that won't tear me down when I hiccup, someone who wants me to be the best version of myself possible. I have been working hard on getting a car rolling, and it's looking good, I'm going to take a page from my buddy Ryan and try hard to stay positive, surrounding myself with people who want the best for themselves and me. I want to be the man she deserves and the man I want to be. Take that world, I'm back.
