THE LAST BAD IDEA
Where this bad idea came from…. ?
Twin brothers Iliya and Nikita Bridan have possibly crafted one of the most remarkable cars in recent years: the “Half11.” This unique vehicle features the front half of a 1966 Porsche 911 seamlessly melded with an imaginatively designed rear half. Packing over 650 horsepower, the Half11 embodies innovation and craftsmanship, showcasing the Bridan brothers’ exceptional talent. The genesis of this project can be traced back to a casual conversation over drinks, a typical scene where great ideas often take root. Invited to a prestigious car show in the Hamptons, surrounded by millionaires flaunting their expensive rides transported in trucks, the Bridan’s brothers felt compelled to challenge the norm. Their philosophy dictated that cars are meant to be driven, not just displayed. Thus, the decision was made: embark on a cross-country journey from Los Angeles to New York in their unconventional masterpiece. This film talk about the adventure of a group of friends dedicated to move forward and push the boundaries. No matter what we need to move on. Thanks to the whole crew that make this adventure possible.

Something a little bit different... When @flywithowen asked if I wanted to shoot some Air to Air with his beautiful Bonanza, I obviously said yes, and it was magical. We flew for over an hour all over the San Francisco bay and had fun with the clouds, making for some truly epic shots and memories.

After 5 days of driving 12 hours a day, we finally made it to New York City.... 3000 miles after we left Los Angeles and countless stories later... While it might seem crazy to drive a hand built 1970's le mans race car resembling automobile, actually it is, I am so happy that @oilstainlab decided to do it. It was such a cool experience to see these geniuses at work and solving every issue that were thrown at them. Next time you have a crazy or stupid idea in mind, do it...

The Porsche 962... Seeing one of those up close and on the road is just a truly unbelievable experience. Built to conquer endurance races, this legendary machine featured groundbreaking advancements that set new standards in motorsport engineering. Powered by a turbocharged flat-six, the 962 generated up to 600 horsepower, propelling it to incredible speeds on the track.
But it wasn't just raw power that defined the 962; it was also its aerodynamic prowess. With a sleek, low-slung body and advanced aerodynamic, including a distinctive rear wing and ground effects, the 962 sliced through the air with unparalleled efficiency, maximizing speed and cornering grip.
The Porsche 962 holds the record for the most wins at the prestigious 24 Hours of Le Mans by a single model with 7 total wins. Its dominance at Le Mans in the 1980s solidified its status as one of the greatest endurance racers of all time.
962 is successfully added to the dream car garage.•

When @oilstainlab has an idea, just say yes and ask questions later… they were crazy enough to drive their hand-built Half11 from Los Angeles to New York City… and that didn’t come without it’s own curveballs. Go to the last slide to figure out what happened

@mirejah x @bevhillscr collaboration to showcase their Maybach S580. Unpopular opinion but I prefer and would choose the Maybach over a Rolls Royce...

Imagine taking your 1 of 50 MC12 to the beach.... @caretakerscollection just does it. What an incredible day shooting the most beautiful car ever made in my opinion. Did you know that the MC12 was not supposed to feature these 3 fins on the hood that are now one of the most recognizable part of the car. These fins were added later in the design in order to meet a safety regulation stating that not opening should be big enough for a baby's head to get stuck in... Sometimes regulations create some magic

It is crazy to think that this car was unveiled 6 years ago and still looks this good... There's a lot to learn here. It is the second fastest car I have ever driven, only topped by @lamboman37 's supercharged Huracan with a meth injection kit... I guess the color yellow makes any car fast huh.

I have yet to drive a Purosangue, but until then the Urus will be one of the most impressive car I have ever been behind the wheel of. Between the extreme comfort for everyday driving, the road presence, the power and sound, and the track performance, Lamborghini did an incredible job at packaging everything into one car... We took one of the track during Goldrush last summer and it was keeping up with almost every car... Dear Santa... Thanks to @bevhillscr for trusting me with their content creation and their cars

Plot twist: we filmed this video because the car had broken down so we had to be creative 😂 my original idea with this was a lot of driving shots and some high energy filming, but after the Ferrari decided to show her Italian side and refused to move we had to change the whole shooting schedule in order to colis with something. Thanks to @bevhillscr for their continued trust in working together
