All-Around Automotive Weekend

Loud engines, walls of smoke that wreak of burning rubber, and a massive frenzied crowd means we were among friends at a Formula Drift Championship in Irwindale. Believe it or not that was not the only automotive enthusiast activity we took part in on Saturday. We started the day off nice and early at K1 Go Kart racing track in Santa Ana.

We then decided to see what the Off-road expo was about in Pamona and had an interesting time reaching out to a different demographic from our usuals but we saw plenty of friendly faces.

We admired some of the art work and discovered a secret hidden passion for this stuff along the way.

After we exercised growing in unfamiliar territory, we headed to Irwindale to see some friends.

DAI!

Needless to say, we have a thing for motorsports. We had a great time Saturday and would like to congratulate Dai Yoshihara on his victory this weekend.

About Fatlace

Born in 1999, Fatlace initially started as a blog about the elements of hip-hop, with roots in music, break dancing, and graffiti. In addition to the hip-hop lifestyle we grew up on, cars is a collective interest among the Fatlace family and inevitably was incorporated into our web site. Fast forward and Fatlace has evolved to what you see now, still continuing to grow.

At first, Fatlace in San Francisco's historic Japantown seems like your typical shop with dope beats, comfy sneaks and kids up to no good, but stay a while and you'll discover there's more to us than what is on the surface. You'll soon find out the diverseness within our team and the details that set us apart from the usual street boutique. Be sure to also check out Illest, our Los Angeles shop and if you can't make it out to either, there's always our online store where we carry all of our latest products.
