Import ShowCase 2012
February 16th, 2012 by RobertAnother wonderful day in Southern California and this time it we head to Torrance California, the site was K1 Kart Racing for Import Showcase 2012 brought to you by Import Fashion.
When we arrived we noticed the ghetto bird flying around and the Piggy’s blocking traffic, we thought for a min that the event would be cancelled. After scoping out the scene we noticed that the parking lot was opened. So we made our way in, the lot was packed and was lucky to get a parking spot.
Import Fashion staff were dressed in burgundy t-shirts and not hard to find! The event went smoothly cars and females a plenty.
My team was unable to hit the Kart Racing track due to availability issues but next time we shall make it out to the track and I will show all who is the king of the ring!
Props to Import Fashion for putting this thing together!

Red Bull Butter Cup: Drinkys Easton, PA
February 12th, 2012 by Elusive MediaLast year Red Bull helped sponsor a local event called Rail Jam, which Drinky’s created. Because of the success of last years event, Red Bull added Easton, PA as one of it’s stops on the Butter Cup Series. Unlike last year, which allowed skiers to be involved, this event was for snowboarders only with women, men, and kids broken into different heats. As Red Bull says it, “more flow and smoother than ever before”; This let the riders have more freedom to show of their style. Despite the warmer weather all season, organizers brought in over 40 tons of snow which was needed for the 16ft high ramp and 180ft area w/ a mix of rails and jumps.
Winners: Under 13 – Thomas Melchiore Women – Jess Kurman Best Trick – Kyle Luza Pro – Peter Pape
