2008 Dodge Challenger SRT8

This was a pretty cool car, I'm not overly into muscle cars, I have a few classics that I like, and the Challenger is one of them. This car was a blast to drive, and the shoot was awesome. I think the video came out pretty cool too.

New Challenger SRT8

now, i was never much into the muscle cars, but after getting my hands on this one, I might be converted. The full video is waiting for approval, and will be up soon.

2008 Lexus IS F - First Drive - Lake Powell/Las Vegas



I shot and edited this video for Myride.com outside Las Vegas in Jan 08 (2 weeks ago). Editorial writer Thom Blackett explored the capabilities of the Lexus IS F. A vehicle that Lexus hopes will launch them into the competitive high performance luxury sedan market. I like the car, but I'm not overly excited about the looks, performance is excellent, the interior is OK, but I think I like the looks of the base IS better. take a look and see for yourself.

2008 Lamborghini Reventon - LA auto show



The Reventon...well I most likely will never even see one of these again. Simply amazing. Freakishly exotic.

2006 Porsche Carrera GT



We got the GT for a day, wow it was amazing. I really don't have the words. The car is dangerous and elegant all in one package!

2008 Ferrari 430 Scuderia - LA auto show



The F430 is already insane, but to make it exclusive, Ferrari made it the Scuderia. simply amazing. I hope someday to get to drive one.

2008 Cadillac CTS - First Drive - Laguna Seca/Monerey



This was the first time I got to shoot a car at a manufacturer first drive event. Companies invite press people to check out their cars before the official launch. The do a bit of a wine and dine kind of thing and this one was in Monterey California at Laguna Seca. What a thrill to take hot laps with the professional driver and to shoot at a track I first saw as a kid on TV. The car was great and I think Thom the editorial writer I was with really like the car. This video is our one day with the car.

SEMA: 2007 Highlights with Fireball Tim



Our trip to Las Vegas was packed, but this video gives some of the highlights. Fireball is a NUT! It was my job to shoot with him for 4 days, constant laughter! You can find the rest of the 50 or so videos we produced at www.myride.com

Concept - Audi R8 V12 TDI - Detroit auto show


Like the R8 isn't cool enough. I hope they make this thing, and I don't think people realize how much torque would be created.....serious whiplash potential!!!

Concept - Hummer HX - Detroit auto show

The only Hummer vehicle I've ever wanted to own.

Suzuki X-Head concept - Detroit auto show


Detroit is the daddy of Auto shows, but Suzuki is nobodies daddy, unless you talk motorcycles.
This thing looks like a blast, I think we need to create a summer camp for dudes, and they get to drive things like this!

Cadillac CTS coupe - Detroit auto show



I got to witness the un-leaked debut of the CTS coupe at the Detroit auto show. This a a breath of fresh air. Caddy has been pretty lame in recent years, and unless your a member of the Shriners club, or a hip-hop artist, you just don't see it. But the new CTS is changing that, and if Caddy makes the coupe, it will for sure change their image. This car looks great, I can't wait to see one on the road!

Mitsubishi EVO X - First Drive Firebird Raceway

So the EVO is already legendary. Yet I'd never had my hands on one, other than a photo shoot. This car RAWKS! It is so fun to drive and I wish I lived in an area where I could use the awesome AWD system to get up to the mountain. It seems a bit pricey, but what an impressive car.

2008 Audi S5 - First Drive - Napa/Infineon Raceway

If I could afford a luxury daily driver, this would be it. This was shot over the same couple of days as the R8, and although its a bit rough to be lumped in with that car, the S5 was a jem. Fast, comfortable and incredible looking, the S5 is tops on my list of favorite cars.

The Amazing Audi R8 - Napa/Infineon Raceway

So here it is, the dream car Audi R8. This video was shot up in The Napa valley and also at Infinion Raceway just north of the San Francisco bay. This was one of the most enjoyable shoots I've ever been on. The R8 was delivered early to my hotel and I got the keys at about 6am. I had already scouted out the location for the shoot so I had about 30 minutes until sun up . So what do you do with an R8 and an extra 30 min? you go get coffee of course! What a thrill!
