Westward bound for Voiceover, MC and good times….

By Jarod DeAnda, June 28, 2010

I sound like a broken record right?
I’m on the road and feel blessed to be doing what I love and getting compensated for doing what I love, it’s not work, it’s making my contribution to the world with the skills that I have…

So I headed West last week Orange County and LA to be exact, Wednesday through Sunday… Here’s what went down…

Ryan Sage Co-Founder of Formula Drift, co-host on Formula Drift TV and co-guests of the ducks here at Brueggers bagels in Irvine…

Ryan and I share many laughs, stories and drinks together over the years…

We hit the studio in Burbank our new haunts for VO…

Across the street is Porto’s, I’ve never had it but lemme tell you it’s a good ting, fattening and cheap, but banging!

Check out the NOS Energy Drink BLOG for some exclusive pics of me and Th Forsbergs and some Voiceover pics….

City of Angels…

To infinity and beyond… words to live by if you think about it…
No where does this billboard say “Toy Story”…

Rolled to the Formula Drift office…

Andy “Ol Dirty Panda” is a Star Wars junky if you didn’t know…
He hit up the Vader Project and I’m jealous as it’s closed now…

Andy hooked my son up with a poster signed by the director and voice actors of the Clone Wars TV show and movie… DOPE!!!!! Thanks ODP!

Headed to lunch with Ryan and Bryan… Little siesta on a Wednesday at an LBC locale…
Spotted this dude working for GOOGLE taking pics for “Street view” inside and outside of a store, crazy!


Ohmmmmm

Party at The Forsbergs with the Gittin’s well Gittin & Baker but the couple from Maryland…

Back to Burbank on Friday for more Voiceover, down the street from WB…
Wonder if Animaniacs still live in the water tower…?

Voiceover done, now head to Irvine and OC aka The Orange Curtain to hook up with Vaughn Gittin Jr. and the “Smoke Show” crew for drift demo’s for 3 days 10-5 every day Fri-Sun, that’s a lot of tires….
We burn tires but this thing burns trash and doesn’t need roads where it’s going… Boom!

Barrett Jackson Orange County for the 1st year, 1st day on Friday….

Like the color combo and what not on these…
Clean…

“The Block”…

Ray from Electric Visuals shows up fresh from a. Funeral b. court c. his honeymooning job at Nordstrom or d. all of the above…????

We support each other in the drift world, The Forsberg’s showed up too…

cool…

Turbo Trans Am, I love this car for some reason!

Ray from Electric supplying the liquid not the food!!!!
Shot’s with the fellas, Ray, Forsberg, Gittin and I…

Wait 2 different DeLorean’s check, one stock and one BTTF status but this one is ELECTRIC???? Notice the plug???

This is my boy Sean Smith…. He has a company called SEAN SMITH DESIGNS and ummm he’s wicked talented you heard it first…. unless you heard it from somebody else… this dude can draw whatever!!!
Hence me ooking up Sean with an INCIPIO Kickstand case for his iPad

Peep Sean’s work and his tee’s he graced me with…


BTW, Chip Foose came by and spoke with him and gave him the “thumbs up” in short….

Here’s the front of one….

and back…

Vaughn Gittin Jr. doing his drift demo thang at the Ford Drift Experience at Barrett Jackson, he usually drives the white and black car and Justin Pawlak drives the Mustang RTR but….

Sometimes he drove the Mustang RTR and this time he had 3 lil monkeys with him at once….

Burnt rubber….

Ford Mustang dyno challenge…

Cruise the show…
SLED….

SICK!

Vaughn, Courtney Day, myself and the whole “Smoke Show” crew were asked to join the Ford Team and DUB Magazine to garnish some attention for the auctioning of this DUB Edition 2011 Ford Mustang where all proceeds go to Juvenille Diabetes Foundation, you might have seen me LIVE on SPEED with the gang, it was a good time…

The Block…

Me and MM, he coordiantes a lot of stuff….

Mr. DeAnda and Mr. Foose…

Good night Orange County Saturday night!

Sunday, yes we drifted, ripped some asphalt created applause, but the best thing was ATE HUGE sausages…
BOOM! That’s a wrap but is it….????

Day in the life of “Chowddaaaaaaaaaaaaa” aka Ryan Tuerck…

By Jarod DeAnda, June 23, 2010

Ryan Tuerck driver of the Gardella Racing Mobil 1 Pontiac Solstice GXP is a great dude!
Fun loving, talented driver and I’ve shared MANY laughs with him….
Send It Productions (NO I’m NOT affiliated at all, Chaboing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!) created this Day in the life piece that I like alot…
I think showing the drift fans what’s up with the drivers not behind the wheel is solid…
Seriously though check out the NY spot, the view and how many shirtless dudes he has at his place…haha

BTW Notice Ryan using the INCIPIO NGP case on his iPhone… BOOM!
Enjoy…
