Event Coverage: 7Stock Coverage

September 19, 2010

On Saturday, I had to cover 2 events and a photoshoot for my blog and juststance.com. Really long day, but I had a lot of fun. As you guys know, 7stock was going on at Irvine and it was huge! Most of the shows that are dedicated for a certain company has a good turnout. For the Scion event that happend at Longo, more than 300 cars showed up and the result for 7stock was pretty much the same. The whole parking lot of Mazda North America Corporate HQ Center was full of Mazda's. Almost all the rotaries in SoCal showed up. Even people from out of states came as well.

I took photos of rotaries that were modded to my liking because there were too many cars and half of them were just stock. I took a different step when editing the photos for this event. I added a lot of vibrance and it came out ... pretty bad :) but hope you guys like it.

A lot of side events were going on. What you guys see are people watching a tech teaching "how to build an engine." I didn't watch it, but heard it was pretty awesome.

Anyways, to the cars that were displayed in front of the entrance.

Never seen those rims but the overall look was dam sick..

Because there are too many pics of cars, I might just skip without a description.

9.18.10 -15

Mad concave rims. 5Zigens if I remember correctly.

9.18.10 -25

Best RX8 of the show and he's from Lowballers.

9.18.10 -26

Nicely painted RX8. Liking it a lot.

9.18.10 -27

I don't know why, but I'm not a fan of the matching color strip of the rim.

9.18.10 -30

9.18.10 -32

9.18.10 -33

That's what I'm talking about. BBS's on a RX7.

9.18.10 -129

The RX-7 I did a coverage on couple of days ago. He just got this hood from Japan. Trust me..you can't find this in the U.S. or anywhere else.

Red RX-7's are sooo nice...

9.18.10 -65

9.18.10 -66

Now you guys know I'm a fan of BBS's and I own a set as well, but this car does not look good with BBS RS's at all. Very different..but not a fan..

9.18.10 -67

Work Meisters. I saw A LOT of them.

9.18.10 -70

The owner should've gotten lower offset Enkei's.

9.18.10 -72

I think this car had BBS style 5's. Not a fan as well...

9.18.10 -74
