Blackmarkers.ca visit Golden Gardens!

Went down to Golden Gardens in Seattle for the NW-Built/Stancewars spring meet! Here's some highlights of the day!

Ran into Art of Stance on the highway!









Met up with Umbrella Auto Design to roll to the meet together!


Had to give this guy a little nudge to get out of the parking lot...




















A couple people saw us coming...

The quality of cars you rolled in with was much better than what we saw!

there were a lot of beaters, and I've never seen so many XXR wheels in one meet. Here's our photos

GG has gone downhill. It used to be a Nissan meet and now people with whatever show up. Too many boring ass stock cars with wheels. A few years back I went and it was great... lots of actual built cars rather than the stupid herrafrush fad going on.

Thats why Northwest Nissans has move the GG event and renamed it to NissanFest. They are still allowing other manufactures to show up, but it will be better run now that its on private property.

If you guys liked the NW-Built event, you should come out to NissanFest down at Evergreen Speed way in a couple weeks. Car shows/ big car meet, drifting, vendors, man its going to be insane!



Home - NissanFest March 25 2012 at Evergreen Speedway!

Vancouver, BC to Evergreen State Fairgrounds - Google Maps

{Mods if you have any problem with me linking to another local car site, lmk and ill take it down}

You can shoot most of the event with out one, but its hard to get shots like this from the stands



There is going to be 3/8th's (smaller bank) and 5/8th's (formula d/pro-am) bank competitions along with 2 sponsorship packages handed out to 2 lucky drivers.
There is nothing like watching two drivers coming off the 5/8th bank and 100+kph into power alley. Just be careful, you might get addicted to the action and start coming down every weekend like me
