iM: Weekly 403 Honda/Beyond.ca Chinook Meet – April 20,…

Despite being somewhat still chilly out, last Wednesdays 403 Honda/Beyond.ca Meet was surprisingly busy. There was an awesome turnout, it was great to see lots of cool cars out, and tons people wondering around. I unfortunately was inside eating when (from what I’ve heard) a bunch of cops showed up. Apparently someone reported a big fight going on, but after some clarification that there was no fight that occurred, they left. With that, comes a reminder/public service announcement: We are fortunate enough that Chinook Centre security is cool with us being up there, please don’t ruin it for us by showing off. Please drive slowly through the parkades (especially up and down the ramp), no loud music, no burnouts, no erratic behaviour.

I tried to get as many pics as I could of all the rides, but can only fit so many on this post, so there are more here: MORE PICS

Hope you enjoy the pics, and if you’re in the Calgary area, we’d love to see you out next week! As usual, weather pending, these meets happen every Wednesday from 7-9:30 at the upper rear parkade of Chinook Centre.

iM HIghlight: Jeroen’s Honda Civic EJ2

Once again, our homies from the Netherlands show their definition of cleanliness and simplicity.

Jeroen has gotten in touch with us and sent us some pics of his super clean EJ2 coupe.
It’s nice to see a ’92 with mint paint kept in super awesome condition, especially with all the tasteful mods Jeroen has done, this is something we can definitely appreciate. From his 1968 Recaros to his JDM accents, I think this is one clean Civic.

iM Flashback

iM Flashback: Aldrich’s (Old) 2006 Toyota Tacoma X-Runner

I was diggin’ through a bunch of my pictures from a few years back, and ran across pics of my old X-Runner. I figured I’d share a few pics I have from 2008 since I miss her from time to time. But I’m glad I don’t have her at this point, she ate through gas like crazy. She looked good doing it though with the 2″ drop and 18 x 9.5 +15 wheels. Enjoy the pics!

iM: Revscene Spring meet 2011

I apologize for the near one month delay on this post. I was tied down at school with term papers and final projects Sorry. None the less, I must share this event with you viewers! So without further ado..







The spring meet happens every year at around March. Rain or Shine the turn out is always amazing. This years turn out was about 200 some cars. It’s great to see all the support the locals give to these meets. Automotive enthusiast or not, everyone enjoys the event.





From classics, to drift missiles, to show cars, to track bred beasts and even your parents daily. Evey one shows up and are welcomed.




The spring meet is one of two meets that revscene hosts within the year. To the locals car guys, the spring meet is only a sample showcase. So stay tune!!! The 2011 summer meet is only a few months away!

iM Random Snaps: Track Day Reminiscing

With the first Track Day of 2011 only 10 days away it’s a good time to look back at some of the cars we saw on the track last year. 2010 was a great year with plenty of track time available to everyone.

I’m sure 2011 will be a bigger and better year for the track as we will be saying good-bye to ‘Race City’ pretty soon. So if you can, make your way out to track and see what your car is made of or just come and watch some sick machines rip around. Either way it’ll be fun!

DETO: Matt Lomazoff’s Daily Drifter

My good friend Matt Lomazoff recently revamped his DD(daily drifter,not daily driver). I thought it would be a perfect opportunity to shoot his car at one of my favorite secrete locations…

Matt’s car isn’t your typical hella flush, trailer-ed, pristine show car. The car was built to drift and that’s exactly what Matt does with it everyday, and has the battle scars to show!

Below is some video of Matt doing what he does, in such close quarters! 😉

iM: Weekly 403 Honda/Beyond.ca Chinook Meet – April 6,…

Another nice weather Wednesday equals another 403 Honda/Beyond.ca Chinook meet. Hopefully the weather keeps getting better. If you try to make it out, then we promise try our best to get out there each week to take pics. Who knows, maybe we’ll find cars that are worthy to be featured on the site!

Donation

iM: #PrayForJapan Donation

On March 11th 2011, Japan was struck with an 8.9-magnitude Earthquake which was immediately followed by a monstrous Tsunami. Thousands of homes and businesses were taken away, as well as the lives of many, many people.

Being heavily influenced by the Japanese, the crew here at illmotion felt that it was only right to raise money for those in Japan who are in desperate need of our help.

From March 12th to March 31st, 100% of all illmotion decals sold were to be donated to the Canadian Red Cross, who is currently in Japan providing relief and aid to those who are greatly affected by this disaster.

Today, we would like to share with all of you the amount that we will be donating to the Canadian Red Cross. None of this would be possible without all of your support. For this, we send our deepest appreciation and thanks.

Because of you guys, illmotion managed to raise $800.00 to the Canadian Red Cross! We cannot thank you guys enough for your continuous support!

Along with our efforts to help Japan, Our homies over at Beyond.Ca graciously offered to match dollar for dollar the amount we raised (and then some) to the Canadian Red Cross. Thanks guys!

Last but not least, the boys over at Lithium Autosport also supported the cause by exclusively selling our “Made You Look” bumper stickers at their shop. Sales from these decals also went to the Canadian Red Cross.

With the support of Beyond.Ca, Lithium Autosport and most importantly all of you, we collectively managed to raise $1810.00!

Well done everyone!

Our deepest thoughts and prayers are still with the people of Japan.

If you would like to donate to the Canadian Red Cross click HERE.

Another way to donate is to text ASIA to 30333. $5.00 will be sent to the Canadian Red Cross for Earthquake Relief in Japan with every text.

Thanks again for your support!
