Turbocharger key chain…
While surfing the net, I stumbled across an awesome key chain. It's a mini turbo literally. They've even hooked up a boost meter to it. It has actual turbo parts (backplate, impeller, chrome steel twin shielded ball bearing, and housing). It also comes with a compressor performance specification card! Check this thing out.. I already have one coming in the mail!

Pen spinning tricks from Japan…
I remember back in high school, Tanker and I use to spin our pens when we were bored in our classes, but never to this level! This is crazy, don't try this at home... LOL what am I talking about, try this everywhere! Enjoy!

Go kart drifting for kids?
I had just gotten home from work when I decided to do what most people do when they get home from work, relax on the couch and watch tv. Right when I turned on the tube this commercial came on.
It's a new go-kart style toy called Ground Force Drifter. To say the least I was kind of suprised. I know drifting, after being introduced in Japan so long ago, became pretty popular in the states, but I never expected this. I have to admit, I'm a little jealous, oh to be a kid again! One of the great things that will come out of the release of this new toy is a whole new generation of drifters, or a whole bunch of bad drivers... oh well I guess we will have to wait and see ... HA HA!

For the Android Die Hards
Do you wish you could have a little Android to put in your pocket and bring it where ever you go? Well, Android fanboys, now you can! With Google's permission, Designer Andrew Bell has created a line of vinyl toys based on the little green Android mascot. There will be 12 different Androids in the first set and they stand about 3" tall. They will be available at DYZPlastic.com starting February 10th and should be at select retailers still to be announced. Keep in mind, these little guys run $7.25 each and come in sealed boxes...meaning you never know what you got till you purchased it. Good luck Android friends!
MindFlex from Mattel…. the shopping season is right around the corner
I think Professor X from the X-Men is secretly trying to find some more students... Enjoy!

Since you can’t afford the real thing …
Since I can't afford the real thing (yet!) here is the next best thing to keeping your hope alive. Hot Wheels came out with a 2009 Nissan GT-R R35 toy model. I was one of the lucky few to come across this little diamond in the ruff at my local department store. Now if I can only find one of those "Honey, I blew up the kids rays" it would be perfect.

Hot Wheels Designer’s Challenge
So at this year's SEMA, Hot Wheels held a design contest for designers to join in hopes of having their creations made into little die-cast toy. Couple of neat little designs, but I think my favorites have to be the over-the-top Honda and Mitsubishi entries. I'll be perusing the toy aisles at TRU when these come out in Spring 2008...
Honda's Honda Racer
As you can see this little puppy takes much inspiration from Honda's F1 heritage. Using the Honda logo as a basis for the car, they planted an oversized version of Honda's V10 engine from F1. This should be on every Honda fanboys list...lol.
Mitsubishi's Mitsubishi Double Shot
This entry from Mitsubishi takes it's inspiration from the Evo and runs with it. Then goes and sticks a 4G63 engine up front and in back, just for good measure...can you imagine the nightmare this car would be?
Need Wallpaper?
So in an effort to make this laptop my own, I was on a search for wallpaper. As of this moment, I still have the default HP wallpaper...which was fine by me, until people started making fun of the fact that I hadn't changed it. Did some Google searching and came across this site from Japan and was quite impressed by the detailed modeling. I'm sure you'll be too...
If you continue on to the link there are more classic JDM as well as European cars on the site. Not fluent in Japanese, but hey I'm guessing this guy, Satoru Kato, has a passion for cars just as much as we do. In fact the wallpapers are only a part of the site. Seems like there's shadowbox stuff, photoshopped stuff, as well as papercrafts!!! Hooray papercrafts! Something to kill the boredom while my leg is still broken. Awesome site just to look through...
