Back In Black
________________________________
Apparently 2016 was a good year for me. I went out to more events back then, and I was starting to shoot something I had just started getting into- drifting. I guess if you want to get technical late 2015 is when it started, but I hate odd numbers so we’ll kinda just yaknow, round up. The Lone Star Drift event in Houston was one of the first places I got to shoot anything like this- and at the 2016 Round 1 event, I saw Joshs’ S14 for the first time. I know – I know, “you still dont’ know anything, this car isn’t even a S14” – obviously. But as some of us know, some cars don’t stick around forever, and sometimes a good deal comes along that you just can’t pass up – no matter how many long nights might be in store for you.

So here we are, Gear-Trends “3.0” if you will.
You’ll notice several small changes once you navigate around
The biggest, and literal, change is larger resolution photos!
It’s been a long time coming and thankfully it’s finally here.
We’ve also decided to go with a minimalist design as not to take away
From the amazing cars we’ll be featuring here in the near future.We still have some great links you can find by clicking on the
Three line side bar on the far left, and you can also quickly get to
Specific content from Features to Event coverage much quicker.
That little “F” on the bottom right of each article will allow you
To share it directly to your facebook page!When you’re done looking at all the awesome cars and maybe reading
Some of the articles, feel free to check out our “About Us” section –
There you may notice that we’ve added a new member to Gear-Trends!
With Ernest on board, we will finally be able to bring you some great
Video content for events and features in the future!Thank you to everyone that’s stuck around since the beginning,
And to everyone new we’ve met over the years who continues to support us.
This revamp is because of you, and because you all aren’t done yet
Neither are we.
Cheers,

Club Loose Texas : Memorial Moves
I hadn’t been out to a drift event for almost a year now, seriously I hate that I’m not even over exaggerating – the “Drift Wars” coverage I got went up July 2017…I suck. But sometimes things happen, plans change, life ends up going a different way; but if you get lucky the things you love that have to get put on hold end up knocking at your door at 2am possibly drunk asking for another chance- wait what? I almost didn’t answer that door, I almost decided to actually end this once and for all – for real this time. But I started realizing how much I would miss it, and around the time I decided to finally go at this full force I get a message from my buddy Carlos with a video of his 240 looking crazy clean followed by, “SA Gear-Trends feature? I’m heading up there the 27th” – let’s call this fate.
