WHO WE THINK vs WHO WE ARE
May 7, 2009 – 12:12 pm | 3 Comments | submitted by Al "Mofo" Lagura

there’s always that feeling that you’re not cut out for some of the stuff that you do. i’m sure there are people out there that wakes up everyday feeling confident that the rest of the world wants to see their shit, but i’m not one of those people. we have that voice inside our head called LITTLE HATER that always tells us that our shit is not good enough, then you try extra hard to be creative but it isn’t enough. so you sit there with 10 million windows open hoping to catch that moment in your head then hours and days later you still have nothing.

i think or i know or maybe i figured it out of how to get things done by not giving a shit but you have to give a shit in order to create that creativity or maybe, no? ok im still lost but what i’m trying to say is that i need to beat the little hater inside my head and just do the things that i want to do. example, i got millions of video but knowing iphilms and other friends that produces video, my shit is nowhere good as theres so i sit here trying to think how i can make it like theres or trying to make it better but also knowing that i just started editing video like days ago so i know for a fact that i’m nowhere good. but the little hater inside me is telling me that don’t produce the video because your shit sucks. in order to beat that little hater inside me? i’m just going to roll with it of how i really feel so if im feeling editing and making videos, that’s what i’m going to do and i just happen to stop playing COD4 last night and started editing the FD trip… and i came up with this. no explanation needed, i just needed to beat the little hater for the night.

some of the things we talk about because it’s what’s in our mind but not who we are… we always think highly of ourselves but we are no where that high. or maybe we shoot that high and hoping we can reach that…?

the little hater inside me is already blabbing away. lets see if i can do another one?

NINEOUTOF10 & KW USA
May 2, 2009 – 12:02 am | Comments Off | submitted by Al "Mofo" Lagura

back in late 90’s when i started getting heavily into AE86 and drifting i’ve meet this guy Johnson that also had an 86. if you thought you’ve been into corolla’s and drifting, this dude has been there since day one. we’ve keep in touch throughout the years and i found out that he started his own company called nineoutof10. and today i got a big ass package of shirts and hat from Johnson out of nowhere! this stuff really makes me humble and appreciate shit. thanks johnson!

I just want to add something, throughout my life I never like to ask for anything (not even my parents). I’ve always been contempt and I always do my own thing which I try not to concern other people when I need anything. So when I ask for something its something that I really need or want and all I really want is a straight answer. I hate getting the run around. No one will hate you for being honest.

after looking at my archive i found this foto of my car back in 2000 at some track events. more story on this later oh why its colorful…

saw this on THE BIG PICTURE… fucking awesome. click below to see more.

The 2009 Formula One World Championship season has held only 4 rounds so far (of a scheduled 17), and has experienced extremes of dry and wet weather already – heavy downpours in Malaysia and China, followed by dry desert heat of over 37 degrees C (100 F) in Bahrain. Brawn GP team driver Jenson Button currently leads the standings, winning 3 of the first four rounds. The next round will be the Gran Premio de España in Barcelona Spain on may 10th. Collected here are photographs from the most recent three races. (31 photos total)

TRIP TO LALALAND
April 28, 2009 – 8:56 pm | 6 Comments | submitted by Al "Mofo" Lagura

I follow drifting nowadays as much as I follow Miss American Pageant but there is no doubt that I still have that special place on my heart with drifting. As some of you know I’m a hasbeen I was a driver in Formula D and its been a few years since I’ve drove at their events but they still treat me as one of their own. If you know how much FD have changed in the recent years you would think Dirty Panda Andy these guys ego would be over there head but they are still the humble people that I know back in 2002 when they first hosted the D1 event. That is right, Ryan & Jim hosted the very first professional D1 event at Irwindale but that relationship went shit, thats another story for another day.

Pro-Drifting in US wouldn’t be anywhere they are if it wasn’t for Formula D. FD has taken this ice-skating sport to a whole another level. I’ve always wondered if FD will have that crazy fan following just like D1, and I think they do in certain level. I don’t want to take anything away from these guys but I really believed D1 has better following when it comes to fans all over the world. I ask myself of why and how I got into drifting in the first place, I truly believed its because how much Option Videos put into the drivers characters. If you pick your favorite driver in D1, you know exactly how they are and their character, this is what I think FD needs to take the next step is to market and build the drivers profile. I really hope this shit blows up like XGAMES style but if it does, you won’t be seeing corolla’s anymore…

I’m going to go ahead and stop blabbering, click below for the fotos. No drifting fotos here, you can find that elsewhere. shot out to my boy jpiz0 for taking all the fotos so if they suck, tell him.

this is the security line…

update…i got the go ahead from the boss.

as some of you know Nike x FTLC will be hosting FAN HEADQUARTERS for Manny Paquiao in the celebration of the highly-anticipated bouts coming up on May 2nd. and if you didn’t know FTLC got 20 pairs of the Manny Paquiao x Nike Trainers that will be releasing on may 2nd at their store, make sure to read the rules if you want one of these super comfortable kicks.

this is probably the most comfortable shoes that i have ever worn in my life. i don’t even know if i should wear ‘em or put them behind a glass but that’s not what i’m all about. you’ll be seeing me rocking them on my neck

here’s a little behind the scene how it all came about which if you visit the store now you’ll see the photo gallery. jay graphtech and calvin wan was the one wrapping the whole store and we were there helping bullshitting with blurry & jaypiz0.

GRADE A MORON
April 23, 2009 – 11:42 am | One Comment | submitted by Al "Mofo" Lagura

when it comes to politics, i try to leave that shit out of my life. i hate politics.

but i couldn’t turn away from this. this fucking senate is GRADE A FUCKING MORON. seriously. watch the video.

you know what so ironing on this whole thing? he posted this on his twitter and uploaded the video…

I seemed to have baffled the Energy Sec with basic question – Where does oil come from? Check out the video: http://bit.ly/O4m0p #tcot

“Rep. Joe Barton (R – Texas) posted this exchange with Energy Secretary Chu on his own channel. He characterizes Secretary Chu as being “puzzled” by the question. As the derisive comments started rolling in, the YouTube account holder quickly deleted them, then turned comments off entirely. Here for your amazement — and open commenting — is Joe Barton.”

If you don’t know who Steven Chu is, he is a nobel prize winning scientist and no Al Gore didn’t win one of those.

and you know what’s so damn sad about this whole thing? he’ll probably get re-elected.

HAPPY EARTH DAY

SHOGUN RUA
April 22, 2009 – 10:58 am | 2 Comments | submitted by Al "Mofo" Lagura

with the recent win he just had with liddell, i felt compelled to post this. there was a lot of talk that he was roiding because when he came to UFC he had a lot of gassing issue.  the dude had 2 knee surgery within 2 years with the UFC. this isn’t exactly an overnight healing so i’m sure his training was affected. but this is the RUA that everyone knows… in PRIDE.

he is only in his mid 20’s and i can’t wait to see more of this dude dominating the UFC.
