Spocom 2010 Long Beach Coverage…Part 2…


Okay, back for part 2…this is the section that is a little more car intensive because at this point I actually went around and tried to take pics. We ate of course and this is where we start…

So we decided to head to Island’s again like last year because we were too lazy to walk far and it was still kinda warm out. Of course we had like almost 20 people with us so we had to get separate tables, otherwise we’d be waiting all day to eat…

Everybody decided to wear the same shirts… =P

David took these pics…

Island’s “Rincon” burger…

Food was eaten, shit was talked, etc… The waitress seemed to be irked that Sheepey kept calling her “madam”…but who cares…Anyways, as we were finishing our food, we saw this Lincoln on hydraulics trying to show off as he made a left turn, hopping his shit up and down…

..unfortunately, his rear end was so high he didn’t see the cop that was following him. If you didn’t know, you can’t be hopping your shit while you drive, it’s illegal and this fool got caught up right in front of Island’s for everyone to see…

After we finished, we walked back to the show and I finally decided to start walking around the show and taking pictures of cars…

Tony from itsjdmyo snapping pics…make sure to check out his coverage of the show once it finally goes up…

Billy’s IS300 that eventually won 1st place Lexus class…congrats…

Arnel…

Ejay decided to blow his motor so the H23 w/ITB set-up is gone while he borrowed a B-series swap. Only in the Honda community can you easily borrow motors from people to get your car to a show…haha…

Dancar and HeyMikeyyyy…

Always manage to run into this Phoenix Yellow coupe. Not sure who owns it but it’s super clean…Mugen everything and yellow Recaros too. Very nice…

There were a bunch of nice G35/37s on hand…

Always see this Civic at events too…this one and the one with the crazy valve cover that’s a similar color…

Such a nice EF I took TWO pics of it…

The definition of “DUB”…

Redline Time Attack cars…

Pair of HKS demo cars…

One of the best looking U.S. drift cars…

LOVED this RSX from Florida. I had seen pictures of it a couple times online but had no idea it would be in the west coast for Spocom. It’s a little over the top with the wild color and all but it’s an excellent example of a complete show car. Paint, Mugen everything, boost, it’s the complete package and it was deserving of winning 1st place Acura…

Endless brakes x Mugen wheels = $$$…

Ahh..someday…

Passed by the Turbonetics booth and saw Bisi’s Shuttle in their booth. There were so many people there that you couldn’t really see shit though. Maybe they should put the car in front of the table or some shit…

Next to them was Sheepey and the Skunk2 booth. Big Mike and Sheepey were there talking and Sheepey told me to get a specific picture of these new bolts on his valve cover but of course I suck and the picture didn’t come out so next time you see this car make sure to look at the valve cover…

…you can kinda make it out in this picture. Notice it’s not a conventional nut on stud set-up…

That’s all for today…tomorrow will be the conclusion of the Spocom coverage. A little bit of cars, more models, and random debauchery…stay tuned…

  1. more info on those head bolts?

    • Skunk2 will be releasing information on those bolt setups very soon. They won’t just be head bolts as they are M6x1.0, you can use them all over your engine bays from fenders to valve covers. Skunk2 is on top of it and will have them available for the public soon.
