It's been pretty busy behind the scenes here at StreetSeen.
Duttyman is on dispatch to South Florida on a secret mission.
But here on St Croix, we're getting ready to leave for Japan today.
<!--more-->
Our bags are packed. Batteries and extra batteries are charged. We're trying not to think about the 20 hours of flying that awaits. Today (Saturday) we fly STX-MIA-LAX. Then Sunday our plane leaves Los Angeles at noon (3pm St Croix time). We should be settled in Tokyo by 8pm or so.... but that's 7am Monday morning St Croix time. Umm Yeah...
Although the next day is dedicated to recovering, you might find me online at strange hours: the current time in Japan is St Croix time- advanced to pm or am- plus 1 hour. (So if its 1pm on St Croix it's 2am the next day in Japan)
The day after, Wednesday, Tokyo Motor Show coverage begins. TMS officials have approved the entire crew for exclusive press access to the show, so we'll be there bright and early for the intros- everything from Toyota/Lexus in the morning to you-know-what at 1:50pm Japan time. We've been told wireless internet will be available so look out for updates on location.
If you have any requests, fire away.
We'll be returning for a second day to get more shots and answer any questions you all might have. Speaking of which, it's a pleasure for me to announce that StreetSeen will also be providing coverage for the Lexus enthusiast website <a href="http://www.thepassionatepursuit.com">The Passionate Pursuit</a>. This website is actually one of the leading Lexus-enthusiast websites and has been a source of Lexus news for a number of major online automotive publications.
In addition to The Passionate Pursuit, StreetSeen will also be providing coverage for the <a href="http://www.nagtroc.com">North American Nissan GT-R Owners Club</a>, to which I am an OG member and moderator. Without giving away anything from the upcoming couple weeks, I will say that we have a lot in store.
On the domestic side, StreetSeen will continue to provide the latest news and happenings. If anyone has anything from the track tonight or any other local content they'd like featured on the main page, don't hesitate to private message Duttyman. He'll be running the show while we're traveling.

Oh and if you were wondering, I'm not sure why exactly I chose that pic for this article.
