Holy
Sh**! It’s March, sorry
guys, things have been out
of hand and the 28 day month
has taken its toll. Show
season is already out of
control. I don’t even
know what’s up to down. We’ve
been busy around here, getting
new great gauge-store deals,
packing our show schedule
full and bringing you the
hottest issue to date.
On
the cover this month staff
photographer Toby Mosholder
captures Rob Robertson’s
2005 Lowrider World Champion
Dancer and Gauge Magazines
own Matt Petro’s Project
S10 Air Dancer. They
are awesome, never have we
witnessed two vehicles collide
with one another and make
so much since. We have
a special encore article; “What
Makes You Fly”, you
don’t want to miss
this; it is a side by side
comparison of a hydraulic
dancer to an air hopper.
Accenting
our radical cover is the
beautiful Taylan, she is
based in Dayton, OH. Although
Taylan has been modeling
for years this cover shot
was a bone chilling experience. The
photo shoot happened just
two weeks ago in 2 degree
weather, 25 mph winds and
below zero wind chills, but
through it all Taylan kept
her professionalism and made
it hot enough to forget it
is winter. To see more
of Taylan, please check out www.taylankiss.com .
Staff
photographer Jason Peckovitch
is bringing it to the plate
again this month with Adrian
Fuentecilla’s 2001
Honda SI. A radical
night time photo shoot really
allows you to see this one
of a kind Honda in its true
environment. Be sure
not to miss this one of a
kind feature.
To
follow up this awesome feature
Jason also had the pleasure
of covering the Crème
de la Chrome Custom Car Show
on the weekend of November
25-27, 2005. Crème
de la Chrome is the largest
indoor custom car show in
Colorado. Make sure to visit
the official web site for
the show at www.greybeardpromotions.com
On
the weekend Feb. 3rd – 5th we
had the pleasure of hosting
the 2nd Annual
Gauge Lifestyle Hall at the
Indianapolis World of Wheels. The
hall has been created to
integrate our lifestyle to
the next level of the automotive
industry. Over 50 dedicated
Gauge readers brought their
vehicles out to support the
revolution and compete for
top honors. Thank you
to all that attended!! Stay
up to date on the 2007 event
by visiting www.worldofwheels.com .
Over
the past few months you may
have noticed the addition
of 4x4 trucks and 4x4 events. We
have started covering these
events to expand the pages
of Gauge Magazine and continually
striving to be the ultimate
online experience. September
23-25, 2005 Toby Mosholder
had the pleasure of attending
the 24th Annual
Indy 4X4 Jamboree. These
boys sure do know how to
have a good time, air horns
were going off every 5 minutes,
Monster trucks were flipping
over and crowd was roaring. Be
sure to set you favorites
to www.familyevents.com so
you don’t miss out
on these one of a kind event.
The
next event to hit the pages
this month is the one and
only Blood Drag. Over the
past few years Blood Drag
has grown from a club show
to a must attend event. Eddie
and his crew have located
the show at the Suwannee
County Air Port in Live Oak,
FL. Make sure to check out
the exclusive photos that
staff photographer Smalls
captured from a fly by of
the show. Stay up on all

Last
but definitely not least
for the month we stay in
Florida and spend the weekend
of October 1-2, 2005 with
staff photographer Jason
Swinford at the world famous
Slamfest. Slamfest is one
of the largest custom shows
in Florida and is produced
by the car club Mini Madness.
With indoor and outdoor show
spots available this show
offers entry for every level
of the sport. Make sure to

As
soon as I told artist Don
Pace that we were running
an Air/Hydro issue of Gauge
he did not hesitate to send
the perfect art work for
this months pin up. This
month’s pin up features
lowrider super model Dazza.
Make sure to check out more
of don’s work at www.don-pace.com
As
you can tell this month is
a great issue. Make sure
to spend some extra time
looking over the photos and
gather some ideas for the
upcoming show season. It
is going to be intense.-DB donnieb@gaugemagazine.com
