Long time no post!
Some of you may remember my car, which has been sleeping in storage for many years while I was finishing law school/my LLM in Taxation. Now that it has its own garage, the process of getting it back up and running properly has begun (it runs great but there are some...
After a very long hiatus, I finally have updated the SpdKilz.com site with over THIRTY NEW ZR1 videos (all downloadable), an update about the SpdKilz Custom TT C5 Z06, and a few more never before seen pictures of SpdKilz TT Z06.
Here are a few of the better new ZR1 Videos:

Only had my cell phone (damn). Doesn't look like he takes a ton of care of it...dirty as all getup and also he had messed up that chin spoiler quite a bit (easier to see in person). He followed me into a parking lot that is notorious for bottoming out and he just zipped right up there. Oh...
First of all, I apologize in advance for the HORRIBLE picture quality. I ran into these guys and only have my junky camera phone.
Anyway, does anyone know what type of BMW’s these are? They were masked off (no BMW logo’s) and both the car and SUV look like the back is different from the...
Got this a while ago buy my computer has been down and out with internet again (comcast is on their way...and of course it starts working again now that they are coming).
Have no idea what is says...but it's still cool :) Thanks to Will and James for passing this information along to me a...
Here is a couple pictures showing how I messed with a photograph I took a couple years ago can really enhance the final outcome.
The past few weeks I have been messing around with HDR and figured out how to incorporate “fake hdr” within some of my pictures (like the one I am about to show...
Hey guys...there are a few videos I want to rip from the aforementioned websites so I can host them for download on my site. Any programs that are easy to use and recommended?
Thanks in advance,

So...decided to go spur of the moment up to the track yesterday. My buddy Vogz with a TT 350z called me late Friday night and said his car was good to go and he was heading up to the track. I told him I would sleep on it and when I woke up decided might as well go.
Was sunny going there, but...
My first try at HDR…”purchased” Photoshop CS2 last night and gave it a whirl. Briefly read an overview (much to learn still) but this kind of shows you the difference between normal photographs and my ghetto version of HDR photographs.
Enjoy! Pointers are welcome!

Cleaned up the engine bay on the TT Z06 today. I am getting the car shot for Corvette Enthusiast next week (weather permitting). Anyway, thought you might enjoy a few of these pictures.
Also, a quick video of the car idling with the dumps on them (only through 2.5” not the 3”…will have it...
Went to Road America this weekend with some friends from my car club Shocker Racing ( www.shockerracing.com ). Had a blast (didn’t race but was a spectator) however a few nice cars crashed when we were there. There was a mean sounding C5 coupe that crashed on the first run of the day. One of...

A quick video of my TT Z06 racing my buddies Awais’ modified Porsche 996 Turbo, Mike’s Head/Cam Z28 (auto), Mike vs. Will’s cammed Z06, etc.
I put down 548rwhp at .3 bar and the Turbo is said to...
The car is FINALLY in running condition. After ten long months, my quest for turboing the Z06 is finally nearing an end.
I went to Sound Performance today to get the car tuned. They spent quite some time (Jerry was great) tuning the Z06 to give it a nice, CONSERVATIVE tune. I am stock...
Ultima GTR:
Specs stated it weighed in at 2360 pounds and put down 1003rwhp at 17psi via what appeared to be a twin turboed LS2. Very sick car. Had 40,000 miles on it so you know it was driven!
What appeared to be a brushed aluminum Cobra. Also very nice looking –...
What I have been doing...SpdKilz Custom TT Z06 (UPDATE! New Pics)
Ok guys, here it is. I have held out as long as I could but as summer slowly passes me by I thought I might at least give an update on why there have been a lack of videos.
This is just a TEASER video…I am not going into many...
Ok…
So I bought a used camera off of e-bay a few weeks ago. I used it to shoot some racing footage of my buddies and then last weekend at a party we were watching some of the tape from the cruise nights. By mistake I let it rewind the entire way not knowing there was a beginning to the...

My niece Addison :D Before some of you people get on here and actually believe I gave her some, use your heads and realize of course I did not. I just got my new D50 and my sister was in town so I decided to be a bit mischievous and was just going to get my niece in the same picture as the...

Hey everyone! Last Friday night I (and the car club I am in – Shocker Racing) was able to cruise around with a Mercedes McLaren SLR. The owner was not able to stay out for a long while so we only got a quick race in. All in all, he pulled me about a car and my friends twin turbo 350Z about...
