Speed Matsuri My blog covers automotive related events in the Boise, Idaho, area as well as my love for motorsport Speed Matsuri (Festival of Speed) is my automotive blog.

I feature on my blog local area automotive events that I find interesting. In addition to the the local area events I also try to cover events from Japan that I follow including Idlers Games, Super GT and various
interesting car shows.

Here's to another that see's me leaving for the rest of the week. Though I'll be closer to home this time as I'll be hitting up Sun Valley for the weekend for the SVTdF Car show and maybe the drive I don't know. Guess I'll see when I get there. Rest of the weekend I don't know yet. But for today I'm sharing another cool Audi Avant on some cool wheels. Enjoy.

Happy i know I completely forgot to schedule a TGIF race queen post on Friday before leaving on the road trip my bad. It was a good time. Drove out Friday morning made it there a little after 1pm had lunch at Gracie's Sea Hag and rumors were true it was some dang good food. We saw a hug heard of Coastal Elk grazing just a few hundred feet from us. Met up with family on the beach and we spread mom's ashes at sea. Saturday we left and did some stopping at places along the way which meant we got home at just after 8pm. I am thankful for Idaho roads a bit more after driving though some places in Oregon but dang that drive would be epic in a sports car and lite traffic. Also very thankful with how nice our local public restrooms are compared to some of the places we stopped at. Had to be careful what you bought at gas stations saw stuff laced with THC and mushrooms along with all the Kratom and other stuff. No we didn't stop at any dispensary either. Saw them everywhere though. But really we had a great time and it was good to get out of Boise for the weekend. This week I'll be headed to Sun Valley for a day so again taking Thursday and Friday off for that.

There is a new chapter out for Kanojo no Carrera so go read that.

Leaving for the coast tomorrow for the weekend so wanted to get one project done before I left. That project of course was the Brezelcross Videos. Finished them last night and dipped into work for 30 minutes to upload them. Here's the complete playlist

Summer Brezelcross 2026 -- Took place in June at the Motorplex at the Mill in Emmett, ID.

Happy today is the last work day for me this week as I'll be taking the next two days off. I'll be doing a mini (and I do mean mini) vacation this weekend to the Oregon Coast. I'll have a thing posted for that on Friday. Today will be a short day at work which I'm happy about. Thursday will be packing and running errands and finishing some other stuff. I've gotten a big chunk of Brezelcross videos uploaded but not sharing until I'm finished with them and hopefully I'll have that done on Thursday. Here is a cool Audi Avant from WagonFreaks which looks like they are getting ready for their next big event.

Happy no new chapter this week of course but it sure was a busy weekend. I started working on the Brezelcross videos this weekend and got a good number of them done and uploaded. I'll share when I get them all done. Saturday of course I did the Coffee and Porsches drive followed that afternoon with the 60th Anniversary party for the Porsche club. Had an oops moment there when I forgot a SD card for the camera so had to do some hustling to get that fixed. I need to get my little bio story written up to publish in the quarterly Club magazine as well. Sunday was an editing day and a MONAC meet up where we watched Kiki's Delivery Service. And that was the weekend. I still haven't seen anything new for what's to come for the new adventures of Kanojo no Carrera yet. I hope we see something soon.

Holy hell folks it's going to be a scorching hot weekend so if you're out and about enjoying some car culture events stay cool wear the sun screen and keep hydrated. I'll be hitting up an open house for a new niche car dealer tonight after work. Then on Saturday while there is what seems like a hundred car things going on I'll be doing the Porsche Club events Coffee and Porsches in the morning and the 60th Anniversary Party for the Porsche club. Sunday will then be a day full of editing pictures and videos.

Uh yeah that's just effing cool.
