I need a driveway like this.

The Hsu family just got back from a pretty amazing road trip to Utah. Everything was great, but now I’m back at work so I’ll have to post some more details later.

My friends are getting pretty deep into HD video with their DSLRs, so this video by Depth of Speed interested me because it has cool cars and was filmed on a DSLR! This guy Eric at JDM Legends gets to work on some really sweet cars and it looks like he takes a lot of pride in his work and does a great job. Thumbs up! The world would be a much better place if we all had a passion and took pride in the things that we do.

BMW 1M

No comments

This is a pretty cool video of the BMW 1M burning some rubber.  I wonder how much of it is real and what those walls are made of?

I think the video was filmed at the Mojave Airport.  I did some drifting for a video shoot quite a few years back. Here’s a small snippet of that video shoot with me and Ken-chan doing some donuts at sunset.

Another interesting fact about this airport (actually called Mojave Air and Space Port) is that it houses Space-X’s SpaceShipOne and also contains an airplane boneyard where lots of movies are filmed.

Integrity

Integrity (noun) – adherence to moral and ethical principles; soundness of moral character; honesty.

Integrity is one of my favorite words. It’s a single word with so much meaning. It’s also the top value that I always strive for.

I strive to have integrity in all that I do… friendships, relationships, work, play… to say that somebody has integrity, I think, is the best compliment you can give somebody. It means that person has gained your trust. That you believe he/she is a good person. And that person stands for so many things special when it is so easy today to stand for nothing.
