Exclamation SharkWerks & Blakt-out Featured on Cover of Excellence Magazine

Hey fellas (and girls?) just a heads up to let you know that Blakt-out's 997S SuperCharged monster (what a car) and the SharkWerks Cayman S RS350 (right before Fred got it!) made the cover of the April issue of Excellence.


Both cars were pitted against a modified 997TT (scargo) in a shoot-out with a difference. All three cars were driven back to back hundreds of miles through some of NorCal's best roads and it's an interesting read what with all the different perspectives with all three cars being such polar opposites in terms of their respective platforms.


There's a sneak preview here:
Excellence Magazine
Again, congrats to 6speeder Blakt-out on building a wicked, wicked 997 (and Synergy).

Awesome!!! Congrats Alex & Jared... this is hilarious:

“The first thing you need to know about me is I’m a redneck,” chuckles Jared."

Wow! I don't even have it yet!

I'm stoked. Can't wait. I also didn't know it was the cover shot. Front 'n' center!

Woo hoo! Thanks much Alex. There's a TON of praise from me to you in that article too. That white car was amazing.

Thanks everyone. I can't wait to see it myself in print. This was one of the best experiences I have EVER had. Truly something that I want to remember every aspect of forever. From driving PCH up from GMG in LA to Excellence HQ in NorCal... to meeting Sharky at Pete's house while we were washing the cars... it was totally a week to remember. I made some lifetime friends out there too.

Pete really thinks I'm a redneck though.
