Xtreme Tuning Show

Currently I work as a graphic designer for the car magazine Xtreme Tuning. Sunday 18th March 2007 was our big event The Xtreme Tuning Show, held at the Autodromo di Franciacorta near Brescia. During this event I managed to fulfill one of my boyhood fantasies (see the photos below). It was a lovely, warm sunny day (the next day it hailstoned!!). Enjoy the day in pictures.


Let the fun begin



A Mini Mike

Betty who organised everyone)



What a day!

The boy Power has had a hectic month!!!!!

I was also pretty upset to see a red mini. I think Mike knows how I miss my old 'Italian Job'. Boo Hoo :(

I could make some funny comments about cows driving cars, but I wouldn’t want the wife to take offence!

Mike used to wash his families old Vauxhall Chevette in the same way actually!? I can’t believe you still drive a pink car too!

That layout you did, that was one heck of a hill you took the photo on!

The Graffiti car eh? Another one of your boyhood hobbies exposed! Was that your own work? No wonder you went into graphic design work!

Boyhood fantasy? I thought you wanted to be a successful Physicist like your old mentor Gregson?

Sounds like you have a fab job.

I am not jealous.

I would much prefer to be stuck in schools than travel about looking at fast cars, men and women washing cars, driving farmyard animals, crazy motorbike stunts, er... London buses, well..... I think you know how I feel.

Boo hoo :(
