So apon my return I have been bust my ass to get my S2k show-ready for this first weekend coming events. This weeks progress include the Install of the new Wheel/Tire combo, Lugs, Megan Track Coilovers, The Mugen Rep Hardtop, Caron Side Diffusers, and a bit of work on getting everything straight and cleaned up.

Over 6 months have passed since my last S2000 meet. This one turned out great with 11 cars showing and a nice dinner at 810!
I am now once again back in the swing of things! One of the most common events that I shoot is the KC Trends Fast Fridays car meet. A great showing at this meet, followed by a nice collection of some of the local exotics! A Great showing and a great time as always! Enjoy the shots below!
After much anticipation and a 6 month hiatus, TheChazz.com is back in motion. Only a small set to start, Stacey Acevero was a welcoming shoot to reclaim my position in the auto photography industry. Sporting the ACR SRT4 is something Stacey is proud of as a self-proclaimed Dodge girl. A fair upgrade from her prior Nissan Sentra, Stacey has many plans in the cars future. Be sure to look for Stacey at your major US car shows and in popular Modified Magazines!
I realised recently I have not done a single feature on my old car. Before the S2000 some of you might remeber my Z24 Cavalier. Sure its a Domestic Econobox, but I still had to ride clean. There is a LONG story behind this car, along with many of the problems I dealt with. But these images were from its prime.

S2kTop < Video report by Marcus Moore!
Well it was a LONG time coming. My first work to be printed in forever, and the start of my inspired efforts to get printed all the more. The April 2011 Issue of Honda Tuning features one of my shots of Joey Butel’s 550+HP S/C and Ethanol fueled Honda S2000. Cant wait on my copy to get here!
Its not often I get to shoot with foreign models from European countries, however that’s exactly what I got with Anna C pictured here! Born in Ukraine, Anna came to the United States and became a resident of Myrtle Beach, SC. A strong accent and flowing body produced this fantastic shoot. A very fun girl to shoot with, hopefully we will see her here again! Enjoy!
