Lone Star Drift : Round 1 – COMING SOON!
Just got granted media access for this great event! It’s been years since I was able to shoot a round on this event, and although I was fortunate enough to head up to a Drift Clinic hosted by the same great people, this will definitely be some awesome coverage. Check out the event page to get some more info, and hopefully plan on making the trip! Even if you wont be participating on the track, this is definitely a great spectator sport as well. Hope to see you guys out there- Thanks again Mr Aaron Losey for granting us access. Cheers everyone! -
LOT1320 : “The Undertaker”
American Muscle Cars and the drag strip go hand in hand, and in the stands you’ll see spectators of all ages and all walks of life. You don’t have to be a car guy to appreciate the sound coming from the burnout box, leading up to staging, and ultimately lining up and dropping the hammer split seconds before that last green light comes on. I started Gear-Trends with the mindset to photograph cars, talk about them a bit, their story and just inspire people with what some locally have done. Up to this point it’s primarily been street cars, although most of the cars we’ve featured can hold their own on the track. This year we’re starting a new series that will be separate from our standard features, and we’re calling this series “The Lords Of The 1320”!

Lone Star Drift Clinic : Practice Makes Perfect
Can I start off by saying I have the best “job” running this blog? Ok I wouldn’t call this a job, I don’t get paid, we make no money…I need to really work on that. But seriously, I don’t know that many people that get to jump around and get a close up look on the different aspects of the automotive world- being a photographer definitely has its perks. I’ve seen guys put together some amazing cars and use them for completely different forms of racing compared the car feature we put up previously. From the quarter mile racers, auto-x track guys, and even here in the valley we have the drift community starting to make some waves – and I get to see it all close up and be a part of it, even for just a weekend.
