Donny Is Back With Mod Gods! - Wednesday, 20th of August 2008 |
|
|
From our friends at FastCar HQ:
"Doncaster gets ready to rumble as Fast Car unveils the modified car scene’s grand finale - the inaugural Mod Gods Awards.
After a two-year break, the UK’s biggest show for petrol-heads and tuning enthusiasts is back at Donny.
The Fast Car Mod Gods Awards rumbles into Doncaster Race Course on 27th and 28th September, and is set to be the hottest automotive experience of the year and the grand finale of the 08 season.
Stacked with heritage, The Donny Show began over 30-years ago, and grew into the UK’s biggest show for petrol-heads and tuning enthusiasts.
Two years ago the multi-million pound renovation of the Doncaster Racecourse forced Donny to move.
But with the facelift complete, Donny is back.
And this time, with the full weight of the UK’s biggest selling tuning magazine behind it, as Fast Car Magazine host their Mod Gods Awards to celebrate the achievements of the enthusiasts who’ve spent the year building groundbreaking and scene moulding modified cars.
Those that enter the Mod Gods @ Donny will battle it out for a share of the £25,000 cash prize pool, and the honour of being awarded some of the industry’s highest accolades.
With help from partners Monster and Cream, the Fast Car Mod Gods @ Donny will be a celebration remembered for years to come." http://www.fastcar.co.uk

 The Best Tints By Far
Redline Magazine Out Now - Tuesday, 19th of August 2008 |
|
|
The latest edition of Redline is out now and it's a cracker!
Full disclosure on Phil Morrison's DriftWorks S15 with build up photos and the finished article taking centre stage plus the low down on ECU chipping, does it work, how much does it cost and what's the best bet for your motor.
And last but not least, Davy sticks it right up the arse of those "model photographers" that we've all come to know and hate at cruises and car shows. Yup, the middle aged blokes with the digital SLR cameras get both barrels in Dav's Rant of the month 
A really decent issue from the Redline guys this month and a worthy addition to your collection. http://www.redlinemag.com

So How Busy Is Strathycruise? - Monday, 18th of August 2008 |
|
|
For a lot of people this website is the first thing they look at in the morning and the last thing they check before going to sleep. The message forum has always been a popular feature and there are over 500 new posts made every day and that’s just the people who have registered and decided to contribute. Over and above that are the amount of people who just read through the forums, and looking at the latest figures from Google (who do our stats) over the course of the last month we've had more than 1 million page views for the first time which is unbelievable! That works out to over 30,000 different pages, photos and forum threads being read every day - not bad for a "wee cruise" website Compared to other sites that makes us just as popular as FastCar.co.uk and we pull just under 10% of the amount of visits that S1Jobs gets!
Where the scene itself is said to be in decline, due to the hard work and extra effort put in by everyone involved with the site it just keeps growing - and long may it continue! With the plans we've got up our sleeves for the coming year, we hope to offer even more content to visitors than ever before including more videos and other interactive features.

Strathycruise DVD Annual 2008 - Friday, 15th of August 2008 |
|
|
Last year we'd hoped to put together a DVD with footage from shows, events and cruises but due to lack of time towards the end of the year it never happened, so this time arond we're starting early!
The plan is to include most of the good stuff from last year along with this year's footage and have over an hours worth of video on the disc. Having mastered everything since the start of 2008 in high definition, the quality is first class when put on to normal DVD discs so it will be well worth the wait!
If you're interested in getting a hold of the DVD then drop us a quick email and we'll reply back to everyone when it's ready. Drop us a line to : infoBADGER@strathycruise.com - due to spam bots you will need to remove the BADGER part of the email address
