Well Nikon couldn’t let Canon getting away with all the press at PMA. So today Nikon announced D60! As the predecessor to the Nikon D40x, the Nikon D60 is much the same. It shares the same body, and many of the specs are the same. The major difference is Nikon D60 has 2 ways to fight dust. The dust reduction system previously seen on the Nikon D300 DSLR has been adopted for the D60, and Nikon has coupled this with what it is calling the “Airflow Control System”.

Well who would have thought that one of the founders of DC shoes would be a rally car driver in his latter years. As a DC founder Ken Block, is a rally car driver competing in Rally America.

This time in the loacation is New Zealand, and the jump one HUGE KICKER! Remember he’s also the same guy that jump 171 foot jump! Just plain fearless!!!

Toyo R1R update!!!!!!!!!!!!

18 01 2008

imagebam.com

Well folks the R1R’s are out of the bag and many ppl are starting to get them ready for the Dixie Tour. From the pix you can see how much wider the R1R are to the RE-01R’s. And i mean alot wider. From the 1st pic the tires are as follows:

RE-01R 205/45/16(16×7) vs R1R 195/50/15(15×7) vs RE-01R 205/45/16(16×7.5)

Looks like the RE-01R have to be stretched on 7.5 to match up to 195 on the R1R’s. That means really good news when the 225/45/15 comes out! And at the current moment i’m trying to find out how much these tires are in my local area.

I’ll update again soon as there is feed back after the Dixie Tour. Enjoy the pix for now!
