Born-Free 9

We appreciate George Hart taking the time to cover Born-Free 9 for us. Grab a cold one and click here to check out his thoughts and photos!

Event Coverage: The Stampede

The Born-Free show has always been about bringing like-minded enthusiasts together. This year was no different, but there was a unique attraction that brought fellow racers together for the love of slamming bars and going fast for a couple of hot laps called The Stampede. The Stampede took place at the historic Costa Mesa Speedway in Costa Mesa, California, which has provided racers a safe environment for them to hone their craft since 1969. Mike Davis and Grant Peterson worked hand-and-hand with the Speedway staff and created a night to remember.

Check out the full feature here.

Win a custom Lane Splitter Helmet during Born-Free 9

It's awesome when a plan comes together. I recently asked Biltwell for a Lane Splitter Helmet to giveaway during Born-Free 9. They said yes (thank you again) and shipped it out to Jeremy Pedersen at Relic Kustoms. Jeremy is a very talented painter, and I gave him free range to do his thing. I just received the finished product, and someone is going to be one happy camper. How do you enter? Just swing by the ChopCult booth during Born-Free and grab a free ticket. I'll draw the winner on Sunday (still working on the time). Big thanks to Biltwell and Jeremy for your help and time! -Lisa.
