Well Well Well..

So... I see that it has been a rather long time since I've posted anything here. It probably seems as if I went cold turkey and stopped writing altogether eh? Nah. I've just had my hands tied with several other projects.

Here is one of them:

One of our weekly meetings when we first started back in the winter!

I decided to get together with a few great friends and build something.  Create a new type of lifestyle which has our core values - racing - at the center.



But to incorporate every other aspect of life. I wanted to have a community. A place where you're inspired to push past your limits and to goof off without fear of anything or anyone.

This is, the 酒 Saké Clan-

Sadiq + Nick's S13's make me miss my many old hatchies!

A collaboration of Men and Women from all walks of life.

We started out with nothing. Originally a group of goofy guys building our cars and daydreaming. Now... we've made a name. Locals are talking. Race teams are enjoying our energy.

We've made great connections- and it's only the start.

A great friend of mine - Jon L. and his shop AkiiTire

I got me some 991 sweg. #Bauce

The website will be up soon (as that is where i'm spending all of my free time ... and my money lol) however, it is also my goal to continue this blog.

Not for anyone else, but myself. I love a good story. I also love being a part of something special. In the future I can look back on these posts (plus feel some serious nostalgia from the music I have playing here haha) and feel wonderful knowing that I followed my passion. Lived life on the edge. Drank some antifreeze. Nomsayin? Ok, maybe not coolant.. but close enough haha.

All the links will be provided if you're ever curious to see more but can't wait for me to upload - check out our various feeds! (We post daily on instagram).

And remember - keep on tuning!

Jeff Zwart Pikes Peak International Hill Climb 2014

Pikes Peak x GT3

Superb driving by Jeff Zwart during the climb, regardless of one failed fuel pump. 

I'm really a fan of well done rolling action shots, but when you add in a 911 GT3, hillclimb, and remove all other unnecessary noises such as BGM and lame commenting, I'm hooked.

I'm still however, not too sure about how I feel in regards to 4k resolution as probably 3% of the world actually acquire monitors that can handle such display capabilities (something like 5,000$ for a 20 inch 4k monitor), but eh. Nice marketing touch.

Fun Fact:

Jeff Zwart (pictured above) is an American commercial film director, racer, photographer, cameraman and author. He is best known for shooting commercial campaigns in collaboration with Porsche, BMW, Cadillac, General Motors, Hyundai, Ford and more.

Zwart is known for his camera philosophy of “full immersion” perspective, an expertise consulted by “Rush” director Ron Howard. He works globally and has shot in over 30 countries throughout his career working on a range of international advertising campaigns and TV series work. On September 20, 2013, working with San Francisco based advertising agency twofifteenmccan, Zwart revealed the world’s fastest Zoetrope in the form of a two-minute film entitled “Forza/Filmspeed” The film uses high resolution still images from the Xbox game Forza Motorsport 5 which were printed onto panels and staged at key intervals around a race track to recreate the illusion of movement known as the persistence of vision.

In addition to his work as a director, Zwart has published three books in collaboration with David Bull Publishing, he is a highly sought-after speaker and panel lecturer, and a monthly contributor to the Porsche Club of America’s “Panorama” magazine, and others.



Zwart is especially noted for his wins at the Pikes Peak International Hill Climb in Colorado. In 1994, he entered the event with a Porsche and won the Open Class Championship. This success led to a number of programs; driving 10 different Porsches resulting in 7 different class championships over a period of 14 years. One of his most notable achievements at Pikes Peak was highlighted in 2010 by winning the Time Attack Class and setting a new record driving a Porsche GT3 Cup car. In 2011, he competed in what was essentially a production street car, a Porsche 911 GT2 RS. The accomplishment of driving the Porsche from Southern California to the famous hill climb in Colorado and successfully racing at Pikes Peak was highlighted in the short film “Porsche, the Road to Pikes Peak,” directed by Will Roegge. View More Here
