For the first time ever, Irwindale Speedway hosted the Global RallyCross event, partially renovating the track with hills, jumps, etc. Today's event was basically a practice round for all the drivers who participated to get a feel of the course and master it for today's championship round.

One of the reasons why I like going to meets is because of talking and meeting new people in the automotive scene. This meet was hosted by the same people (Prestige Marketing) who created the Mitsubishi meet a few weeks ago. Compared to the last meet, the turnout was much better; more people, cars, and great food.
Even known models, Nikita Esco and Natalia Marie, came to support the meet.

As we all know, Japan is the hometown of VIP cars and has been inspiring many luxurious car owners and automotive enthusiasts in general. We've seen VIP rides from many different countries, but not too much from Japan's closest country, South Korea.
I've been doing some thorough research during this past month and came across some beautiful rides in S. Korea, one of them being featured today on our site.
