Happy Birthday Soichiro Honda

Happy Birthday to Soichiro Honda.

November 17, 2012 We regularly note significant historical milestones and today is the 107th anniversary of the birth of a significant technological achiever. Soichiro Honda, the founder of the Honda Motor Company was born this day, November 17, 1906. The son of a blacksmith and a weaver, Soichiro was fascinated by machines and how they worked. One of his earliest memories was being enthralled by the first motor car he had ever seen. He later said: “As the car rolled through our small village I turned and chased after that car for all I was worth.” The young Soichiro may not have been able to catch the car, but it signalled the chasing of his dream: to build his own cars and motorcycles and win world championships with them. Without formal education, Honda forged an empire encompassing road cars, All-Terrain Vehicles, engines, generators, outboard motors, personal watercraft, water pumps, scooters, snowblowers, robots and more recently jet aircraft.

Garage Star day

Me and Private Runner took a small drive up to my friends Kenjo's Shop a lot of you know him as Garage Star. I have to say the feel and look of this shop just makes you want to work on cars for hours on hours. Any ways let me stop talking and upload these pictures for you all to enjoy!

Hip Hop drop

Been so busy with school almost done with this semester but for now enjoy some good old hip hop. I will have some picture updates coming up here for this month so be on the look out for that.
