Understanding Hoonigan. I’ve known about Hoonigan Racing, Ken Block’s motorsport team that competes in FIA World Rallycross as a Ford factory backed team. I even saw them compete at Lydden Hill last month. But I never really understood just Hoonigan, which is separate from Ken and Ford and is based out of Long Beach, California. I assumed that Hoonigan was a T- shirt company for Ken Block and the drifters. Every time I see cars destroying their tires, there are people wearing Hoonigan shirts.

It made sense.(Editors note: We interrupt your regularly scheduled programming to bring you a special bout of insanity from friend of the site and crapcan racer hero, Bill Caswell, who is taking over for us this weekend.) You would think I might know more about Hoonigan as I went to their launch party back in 2. It was incredible. Hoonigan throws the best parties in the automotive world.

The second year we partied at the Global Rallycross Track complete with drifting, burnouts and kegs of PBR: So you could see how I thought Hoonigan just threw parties and sold apparel. Plus I wasn’t really into drifting. I have huge respect for drift, but I never identified with past Hoonigan drivers like Chris Forsberg and Ryan Teurck. They’re outstanding drivers, but I don’t wear skinny jeans, black hats, and my cars aren’t powered by Ferrari.

I love it all, I just never identified with their racers other than Block. Then I got a text from Brian Scotto asking if I wanted to come by and work on a car at their shop. I was confused. Hoonigan is building cars? Naturally I said yes.

As their surrounding community has taken a turn for the worse, the crew at Calvin's Barbershop come together to bring some much needed change to their neighborhood.

If they’re going to build cars, I want to be a part of it. I really had no idea all this was going on at Hoonigan. If you’re like me and skip directions, just start watching below. Be careful though. They’ve uploaded a video every day since March and they have their regular series like The Unprofessionals (my personal favorite), Field Trip, and A Beer With as well. It’s only been 5 months and they have put more content online than seasons of traditional car shows.

You need to start watching Hoonigan. So here’s me and the Sh! A $3. 50 E3. 6 that never leaves the parking lot. Just watch and it will make more sense. Here’s part 2. They left me alone with a camera for few hours and I managed to capture some of my weirdness as I build things.

Like talking to my steel. You have to talk to it before you cut it. That’s Darnell with the Donut Garage hat below. He’s awesome and a proper mechanic/ fabricator. Darnell’s hands are dirty.

He’s worked on tons of different race cars including desert racing trucks and we immediately became friends. He’s also the reason why a lot their cars run. Except Scotto. His cars never run.

So now that you’ve seen the Hoonigan garage, what do you think? I was blown away. I had no idea that a majority of their space was set up for car projects, building, and shooting video. Now let’s walk through the rest of the garage or video series.

Daily Transmission. This covers all the unusual stuff around the shop every day. People stop by with 1,0. There are mini drag races.

This is the series I was a part of with the $3. Sh! t Car. Occasionally they play Dukes of Hazard with a Miata: The Unprofessionals. This is Hert and Rob’s personal little fun house.

It’s my favorite series of the group but I think Im just a huge fan of Hert and Rob, Aka Chairslayer. Watch the first 3. It opens with a crash! Field Trip. This video series is cool because the Hoonigan’s spend so much time in their garage. I could care less about the Jay Leno tour episodes, but the last one was about the guys hitting Laguna Seca for a track day. My kind of fun. A Beer With.

This is a great concept. Have your friends over to drink beers and tell stories. I had a beer or seven with Hoonigan as well, just waiting on the edit which might take a while because I drank a lot and told a lot of stories. The camera ran out of battery I told so many stories. See what I mean? Hoonigan isn’t whatever I thought it was. Look at the gasser on the lift behind Farah. Look at the lift!

You don’t need that for T shirts. Something has changed at Hoonigan and its now my favorite You. Tube channel. I occasionally find myself watching the latest episode a few minutes after it comes out. I also bought a Hoonigan t- shirt last month, so maybe the whole things really does work. Their hands are dirty and they’re having fun with their friends while playing with cars.

Who wouldn’t want to be a part of that?

Things Google Needs to Do to Make The Pixel 2 Great. Now that Apple has officially announced its new i.

Phone 8 and i. Phone X, it’s Google’s turn to try to wow the world with what it thinks is the future of smartphones. And even though last year’s Pixel was a success in many ways, there are still a number of improvements I’d like to see on the Pixel 2 (or whatever Google calls it) when it’s expected to be announced on October 4. Get the design right. One of the biggest knocks against the first Pixel (and rightly so), was that it looked like a tech- y version of Frankenstein’s monster. On the back, Google attempted to cover up a last- minute lobotomy that was used to fit the Pixel’s camera and fingerprint sensor with big hunk of glass. The end result was kind of amateurish.

On the front, the Pixel’s big bezels made it look bloated and dated from day one, and all that extra space begged to be put to better use on features like front- facing speakers or simply a bigger screen. And the Pixel’s lack of any sort of water- resistance was a cardinal sin; no phone that costs over $6. IP rating. The next Pixel needs to be just as pretty as it is functional, and anything less won’t be flagship quality. Don’t forget standard flagship features. I know there’s basically no chance Google puts a micro. SD card slot on the next Pixel, but if there aren’t features like wireless charging or a headphone jack, Google is fucking up.

With rumors swirling about Google’s upcoming “Bisto” wireless headphones, the odds of the Pixel 2 including a 3. But as much as I want to live in a wireless future, we aren’t there yet, and ditching the headphone jack will be bad for most people. I would also like to see Google bring back the dual front- facing speakers from the Nexus 6. P. There are even rumors that the Pixel 2 might have squeezable sides similar to the HTC U1. Make the Pixel’s Camera Even Better.

This one kind of goes without the saying, but the Pixel’s camera, especially its HDR+ mode, was a revelation. Google needs to continue that sort of excellence while enhancing the overall photo experience by adding manual settings and more controls to the camera app, while improving on low- light image quality. I’m not even sure if the Pixel 2 needs to have dual cameras, but now that Samsung, Apple, LG, Huawei, and others are all doing it, that would be nice, too. Watch Step Dogs Online Facebook. Keep the price reasonable. As Apple’s i. Phone X pushes the starting price of mainstream phones higher than ever before, I think it would be a mistake for Google to stray into the $8. A standard model starting at $6. Galaxy Note 8 and the $9.

Phone X. Remember your motto, Google: “Don’t be Evil.”5) Make sure people can actually buy one. One of the biggest issues with last year’s Pixel is that, try as they might, most people couldn’t actually buy one. Google’s supply chain was in such shambles that even six months after its release, the wait time for Pixels was still months- long. Add in the fact that many people thought the phone was a Verizon exclusive thanks to misleading ads, and it’s likely there were thousands of folks who may have considered buying a Pixel but ended up not even trying.

What good is a phone that no one can actually get?
