Karlton and the Karlton Flares @ 2011 SCCA Solo Nationals

Quick little set of photos of the Karlton Flares in action at the 2011 Tire Rack SCCA Solo Nationals this past week.

Karlton placed 6th overall in SM after both days!! I can’t wait to see how Karlton does next year with some more tire and some more fine tuning. Maybe it’ll be time for t3hclap.com to take a road trip. 🙂

Adam’s Aspen White Time Attack 2004.7 STi

Adam has once again stepped up to the plate and blasted it out of the park. The first things that caught my eye on these photos were the Enkei RPF1s. I may be a little biased towards the Enkei RPF1, but the SBC color is a perfect match for Aspen White without question. Your eyes aren’t playing tricks on you, Adam is rocking the huge Karlton fender flares, a huge front splitter, and a massive Kognition wing. Adam opt’d for all that extra grip and downforce to help him get an edge in the Limited GT AWD class for the upcoming Global Time Attack at Willow Springs this weekend (5/20/2011).

Work Emotion CR Kiwami

Work has tweaked their classic Work Emotion CR once again with a new model called the Work Emotion CR Kiwami. They changed the spoke design and made it more concave, this wheel is looking awesome. I’m not sure when they’ll be available for sale stateside but I’ll keep everyone posted.

Work has added Matte-Black to the new Work Emotion CR Kiwami color lineup. I really like the little detail they did on the spokes to differentiate the new CE Kiwami from previous Emotion CR models.

Matt’s OG 2004 STi

2004 Subaru Impreza WRX STi done right. Matt has been in this game for along time, Matt has had his Subaru Impreza WRX STi for over 7 years now. The list of guys who bought their 04’s new and still have them and still modify them is slim. Matt is currently on his 4th wheel/tire/suspension combo.  With only 31k miles on Matt’s Subaru you probably guessed it isn’t his daily driver. It’s one of the lower mileage 04 STi’s I’ve come across in quiet awhile.

How To: Pocket Style Fender Flares STI

So, you want to cover up your 285s or you want to squeeze your 315s off your vette on to your STI? Karlton has your solution. He got flares built to his specs and now he’s written a nice little how to for us all. I’ll leave the rest to Karlton.

I had these flares produced as I had a need for fitting wider tires for autocross. I thought about doing a widebody, but the cost of install kind of scared me away, as often times the cost of the install and paintwork is more than the cost of the widebody kit LOL. So I went for the next best thing, I had some fender  flares made for my car. Relatively simple to install, and a whole lot cheaper than the widebody route. So I basically can have a widebody to fit my tire needs without the crazy cost 🙂 So how do you install these you ask? Well let’s start with the front since it’s the easiest to do.
