Finally available to the public-

 Urban Outlaw | Magnus Walker

URBAN OUTLAW is a portrait of Magnus Walker, the rebel Porsche customizer who turned a hobby into an obsession, and an obsession into a successful business. From a workshop in downtown Los Angeles, Magnus obsessively harvests fragments from donor 911s, grafting them onto vintage frames to create one-off automobiles with the spirit of Ferdinand Porsche but an ethos entirely his own.

Climb Dance

While talking about Walter Rohrl's return to Pikes Peak in the post below, I got reminded of Jean Louis Mourey's award winning video from 1990, where you see Ari Vatanen attack the famous Pikes Peak mountain in Colorado. It doesn't get much better than this one. We've all seen it a million times, and we all can't get enough of it...

El Mirage dry lakes racing

Always a good time to see these ultra dedicated guys go at it to set a new record. If you're ever out there, make sure to go take a look. It's about a 2 hour drive from L.A... If you're a real car guy, you'll never forget this experience.

Blu Max 1 - Murray Fowler

While visiting the open house day at the Auto Kennel in Costa Mesa, during the last L.A. Porsche weekend, I accidently ran into 83 year old local boy Murray Fowler. He told me about his 1969 BMW 2800CS E9, which had travelled 420.450 miles to be exact at the moment I met him. Amazing. I was lost for words.....
