I haven’t had much shop time lately. It was nice to make a little progress today. Engine bay paint coming soon. Then I can see if I remember how to put it all back together.
I’ve been slowly chipping away at the s14 lately and felt a little bit creative this morning. Today’s task was to give the engine bay a deep clean before paint prep starts. One step closer to driving this car again.
I messed up big time on the settings for the outdoor shots and lost a lot of footage. Normally I’d just throw the whole thing away but oh well. Letting it ride today.

A nice little cruise through the hills of @ptcdriving was just what I needed last weekend. Thanks @chasebays for putting on another great event. Even with the rain on Saturday we still had a good time. Just a solid weekend overall.

What a fun weekend down in Texas at Motorsport Ranch. I went down to assist the @griproyal boys with the drift segment of this event and got some much needed seat time in too. @144.phrs , @apexhpde , and @rapscallion.motorsports were amazing hosts over the weekend and made us all feel right at home at a track that was totally new for us. Good vibes all weekend. Shout out to @scott_allinder for being a “bad influence” and convincing me to load the Mustang up and bring it with me also. I would’ve been sick if I came to this track and didn’t drift it.
Randoms from the summer. It was a busy one. Work trips, some drifting, weddings, traveling, and one big vacation to finish it off. I didn’t take nearly enough photos of course. It was nice to finally check Japan off of the bucket list too. I’m already thinking about going again.
Yesterday someone asked me how long I have been drifting and in answering the question I realized it’s been about 20yrs on and off. Pretty wild to think that the sport has been around that long in this part of the country. This picture is from our first official Traction Optional drift day back in 2005. It was such a struggle to make that event happen. So many places said no to drifting and finally a small airport in Walnut Ridge, AR gave us a chance. I don’t think that me or my friends that helped put this event together had any idea that we would still be doing this stuff 20yrs later. Many of them still are and have done a lot for the sport over the years. I’ll probably say the same thing in another 20yrs.
This @g2carbon shifter bezel is perfect! The broken shift boot retainer in my s14 has been annoying me for quite some time and finding an oem piece that wasn’t broken has been quite a challenge. I’m glad I stumbled across this company that is reproducing and improving on some of these commonly broken interior pieces. It not only looks oem but it’s actually made better than the oem piece…that @griproyal shift knob is still holding up well too of course.
Realized I still had a few unposted clips from @itrackmotorsports ExciteGp 💀 saw this gem hiding in my camera roll and its got me missing that day all over again.

Not the prettiest lap, but it’s one that got recorded 🤷🏾♂️. This was just about the point of the day where I started to feel more comfortable in the mustang on Saturday. I was hoping to really get the track dialed today but unfortunately the electric power steering decided it didn’t want to work this morning 👎🏾. Regardless of that @itrackmotorsports event at @ptcdriving was lots of fun.
