Appreciating The Culture: DB On The Quay

Another show we made our way to in 2019, just before we left for Japan, was DB on the quay.

What I liked about this event was the dockside location and the varied mix of cars. Usually, our BBQ is primarily bringing Japanese machinery through the friends we have met over the years. I’ve always wanted to include more variety, but we seem to have a nack in creating bonds with people with the same interest, more specifically Japanese cars.

Ireland has a very diverse car culture, and sometimes it’s hard to bring a mixed bag of enthusiasts together as they tend to stay in their groups. We have a show called Japfest which promotes Japanese cars, and we have VW and old Ford events with a similar style, again usually bringing people from the same crowds together.

Photos Unboxed: Fast Fords at Bolands.

I love the other side of the Irish car culture, the lads that came before us, before the influx of Japanese cars on the Emerald Isle.
I always try to make sure I make my way to New Ross every July to check out Bolands Ford gathering. Long before the black hole of Japanese cars, I was obsessed with Sierra and Escort Cosworths; these cars will always have a special place in my heart.

White Noise: An Angry 500 BHP RX7

I originally shot this FD back in 2013 before moving to Canada; it hasn’t hanged much since then visually, and that’s a good thing. I’ve always loved the look of this car, and PJ shares the same opinion. He has retained its original style, only tweaking the aesthetics slightly to make it more usable.

No Name Heroes

It’s rare to see street skids these days, drifting in this area used to be quite common not too many years ago. We took for granted as various mates got acquainted with two of the most famous street corners in Ireland, it was a go-to spot for many years, a meeting place in the night, we’ve shot numerous videos down here, and I’ve made many friends on this stretch of road.

VTEC Porn at Honda Day

I’m not going to say a lot here, the images speak for themselves, here are the photos to accompany the Honda day from 2019 when we had the EK4 out on the track. It’s hard to put into words just how fun these noisy little Hondas are until you’ve driven one, and when you drive a proper sorted one the track on the limit, it only amplifies the pleasure in these Econo small cars. You can punish them, and they keep coming back for more! 

The noise makes you feel like you are doing ten times the speed, the oversteer, the bang of Vtec lad! Honda knew what they were doing with the first twenty years of simplistic Vtec machines; anyways, ill leave it here. Hope you enjoy these pics.
