He was wrong.Instead, he saw police arrest a man they said was under the influence of the drug PCP at the GameStop in College Park Shopping Center at […]

MDSS (myself and //GT) traveled to Las Vegas last week to cover the SEMA Show. SEMA is the largest automotive specialty equipment industry gathering. Reserved for industry leaders and media, SEMA is a dream event to attend if you are into modified automobiles. There was SO much to see. If you couldn’t tell from our nearly 600 pictures, it was an overwhelmingly awesome […]

Once again, John opened his doors to MDStreetScene and friends for a great afternoon (and evening) of gearhead talk and race fuel burning dyno runs. There was plenty of food and drinks on hand to keep everyone going. One of the highlights of the afternoon was definitely Mark’s hand-built Ultima making a few pulls on the dyno. That machine turns heads. We’re looking […]

First things first, this was my favorite local car show that I’ve been to. Though, I must admit, part of that may have been because I got to fly an airplane. Regardless, that was an attraction at the show so it’s a valid point. The location, an active local airport (in case you didn’t get the hint), was convenient and unique […]

Every Ocean City Car Show that I’ve attended has been a blast. It’s the perfect location, the perfect time of the year, and the perfect content: cars, lots of cars.

The Extreme Makeover: Home Edition television production is in Northeast Baltimore for the next week building a new home for girls (the boys already have a house). This will be the biggest build yet — a group home. They are mixing it up a bit. Airing in September on ABC.

Aside from some logistical mixups with ticketing, drifting, gymkhana, and awards, HIN/NOPI was a nice weekend gathering of different automotive enthusiasts. However, it was nothing like it used to be years ago. While I don’t remember drifting at HIN in DC, the show was top notch with a real ‘exclusive’ vibe. This show seemed to just be ‘bring whatever you […]
