a day at the races
Some places in eastern germany make you feel like time stood still. On some weekends you even think, hell is it me or is time actually running backwards around here? As the smell of a rainy day mixes...

This wasn't taken in the morning but I dig cheesy alliterations.
Some magazines out there feature a section called letter of the month. If LOWTECH had a section like that, this would be the letter of the month. I received it this morning via my facebook account an...
Who would have thought back in 1949 that a former russian airfield somewhere in eastern germany will be the place to go to if you want to experience authentic 1/8 mile hot rod races in the year 2012?...
Goran Lassell's 1948 Mercury was a fresh breath of air in the custom world. Time will tell if it's gonna develop into another iconic kustom but for now we actually don't care and rather admire the be...
Last night, Social Distortion played in Zurich, Switzerland. Thanks to some clever moves and important contacts, we managed to get a good spot to park. And it was great to see that Tom is taking good...
Monday ain't no funday. So let's start the new week with something tried and tested. The Schaub three window model A coupe. Another outtake from my FUEL photoshoot.
BBQs are a big thing at this time of year. There's always something to celebrate even if it's just about having fun with our rides. This past friday we had another nice little party with a great rang...
Finding a good location for a photoshoot is no easy task around here. But this is one of my favorite spots. It's one of the last cool places in our town that hasn't been torn down yet and replaced wi...
Do all roads lead to Bonneville? Maybe, but believe me or not, there are more exciting ways to get there than logging on to your computer, booking a plane, renting a rental and then motoring down the...
This looks like a relaxed saturday afternoon to me. The concert was held right in front of my buddy Gilbert Robles' barber shop on 9th street in Guadalupe. I've been there two times when there was no...
Judging by the photos, the Mad Bomberz threw a great party in Nipomo, California. Big thanks to my buddy Mark Garza for the cool shots.
A couple of weeks ago, I got an e-mail from Cal Thorley. He's the man behind Hot Rod Revue, a quality online video magazine from New Zealand. The latest issue features a fantastic model a roadster bu...
Yesterday was Switzerland's national holiday and we had a little BBQ with the usual suspects. As you can see, I had some time to kill with my camera until the steaks were ready.
To get the new week started, just a tad more action from Switzerland's 100 years old race track. Click here for the slideshow.
Take a long look at this beauty. And tell me, sir: Ain't this one of the most bitchinest model a coupes in a long time? Sinister as hell. With a stance to scare the shit outta school girls. But still...
There should be more tuesdays like this: take a 100 year old race track and throw in some vintage sprint and indy cars, a couple of motorcycles and enough beer and bratwurst for everyone. Only once a...
It was not the largest hot rod event, but it was one of the coolest evenings this summer: the Road Devils Road Trip BBQ. Great people, nice cars and a fantastic location. A little bit late, but with ...
Another outtake from my photoshoot for FUEL issue ten. Have a nice weekend.
Dirt track racing is still going strong in Germany. One of the most popular events is the annual Rust'n Dust Jalopy, held on the historic race track of Teterow. And while most people keep complaining...
Goran Lassell's 1948 Mercury leadsled. Outtake from my photoshoot for Powerglide magazine #22.
It was one of those magic el mirage moments. I was just strolling around, the sun was high and so was I when that roadster on deuce rails turned up, driven by a gentleman smoking a cigar. He parked t...
A photoshoot usually ends up with a whole lotta pictures. But only a small amount of them is worth being published. A lot are junk for various reasons. And then there are the in betweens. This is one...
This is not your average car show. Actually it isn't really a car show at all. The annual Hangar Rockin' right in the middle of the swiss alps is more like a music festival with an exceptionally well...
