Asbo

Another year has gone by! Burnout is celebrating our 2 year anniversary, and we thought we’d do something special for one of our posts. We’ve met a lot of people and done a lot of events and collabs, so we reached out to some of our closest friends to voice their feelings and opinions on Burnout! Brody King: I miss the days of us playing hide and seek in Mirror Park. Maybe we can do this again sometime!? Paulo Witherfork: Since December 2020, Burnout Nation has maintained a strong lasting Relationship with Assured Services. Over the last two years, both organizations have continuously provided support to one another and been witness to each other's growth and prosperity! Since the foundation of Assured, Burnout Nation has contributed $375,000 towards community events, attended over 15 gatherings and collaborated on 3 joint events. These statistics help to quantify continued devotion between our two like-minded factions. It goes without saying that Burnout Nation has been one of our longest confidants and a crucial friend to our faction over the last two years! We hope to maintain our robust amity for many more years to come. Lola DeValera: I’ve watched this faction evolve into what it has become and its members never fail to provide to the community from the very beginning. It is clear that they’ve worked hard and the group that makes up this faction is simply some of the loveliest people on the server to be around. Thank you, Burnout, for two years of your dedication! James Eriksen: Been fun watching the club grow into what it's become today! I, James Eriksen, hope we can continue our great relationship into the future! Much love from James kiss kiss James Famingo - even tho asbo is a genuine pain in the ass, it’s been nice seeing him have something to hold on to and build. I’ve seen burnout come a long way since it’s inception and I’m sure it will go to even greater lengths in the future. Larry Wrzosek: Burnout has done so much for the car community. From the events, the articles, and the car meets. They have paved a path for many people to drive & express themselves on their journey. Aside from all of the car stuff. Burnout has always been open armed to anyone. Personally, I have made a lot of friends through Burnout. So early on into my friendship with the club they were so willing to collaborate with my restaurant at one of their drag events. Eoghan Macc: I once watched the people of burnout nation fish for an entire 10 hours so they could put money together for a property the first week they made the organization. Since then it's almost like we were growing up alongside each other as factions and individuals and to this day I admire all the original members and I am proud to see what a success this faction has become. But that Asbo Smith guys is a smelly weirdo. Ava Raven: It's been amazing to watch you guys grow, welcome to the two year club! I hope we can keep the strong friendship going and can’t wait to see more epic events and I hope we can collaborate again! Tyrone Cox: I cant believe it has been 2 years already! It only seems like yesterday that you were all together fishing, and with Asbo with his… Asbo! I thoroughly enjoyed my time in the faction and maybe one day I should return! Time has certainly flew past. Really happy to see how this faction has developed, forming friendships that I am sure that will last a lifetime. Congratulations for 2 years, here is to two more years and more! Thank you to everyone for the 2 years of friendship, laughter and hardship. A few of the people writing on this post are from our friends/sister faction in Daichead Gadai, recently reformed as Mob Na hÈireann! Also thank you to Amarillo Aces, Los Santos Drift. Los Santos Motorcycle Club, Assured Services, Larry Wrzosek and James Eriksen & Tyrone Cox! And also a special thank you to our faction guides led by Aldarine for always giving us ideas and constructive criticism on how we can improve!

Burnout and Mirror Park Tuning got it aswell?

Asbjorn’s brainchild of a le man style rally race on the F1 Zancudo track, he wanted to re-do it, but instead of just inviting people to race cars Burnout picked, he decided to open up the track for the public, to race their cars as they saw fit, not only would this be a little less painful, it would be downright easy to let the public know to come race whatever they wanted to. However, some preparations were required! The SAAA was well on their way to shut down Fort Zancudo for anyone but the military personnel, Asbjorn made sure to ask Lewis for clearance to open up the track on the 12th, which he agreed with as he said it sounded like a good idea! Next came the Los Santos Police Department and the Sheriffs Department, Asbjorn reached out to Elena Blake, who forwarded the email to the media department, and even gave permission for the media department to bring cruisers down to race in the event, which was a huge success, Peter Johnston who is a beloved member of Burnout and the Media Department decided to show up and race, against the Sheriff's Media team, lead by Paulo Witherfork. Asbjorn also reached out to DOC, who didn’t need to use the track either! An email was also sent out to Conrad from Los Santos Customs, and Tyrone Cox from Bayview, who both replied they’d be more than happy to lend hands and vehicles to the event. To Asbo’s surprise, Conrad had forwarded the email to DCC, who contacted him and said they’d happily offer 50 % off to anyone going to the race, and also partake in the race themselves, which was a absolute delight to hear. Asbjorn also reached out to Marco Davis from Heavyflow to hear if he could borrow a few Lé Mans vehicles to let rip on the track, which were approved by him! But no-one from Burnout could expect what Track Day would bring. As the day and time arrived, the Burnouts began to meet up around the city in small groups and headed to Zancudo to watch the construction company put up the track. They were expecting to run the event during the day but unfortunately the timing led to the event running at night. Thankfully, the construction crew had prepared for this, and put up some track lights in the start/pit area so everyone could see. Heavyflow delivered a couple of exotic track cars, and Bayview brought in an F1 car. After Bayview and LSC got setup, people began to roll into the track. Shortly after people met and got situated with how the races would go, people began to line up and start running races. After a few races, LSMC did a small initiation for one of their new members during a pause in the race, and all of the attendees watched it. Once a few more races happened, day time began to come and the larger crowd began to disperse and go back to their jobs and houses to unwind after a long night of races. Once the racers finally left, a couple of the Burnouts ran a couple laps on their own before the construction crew arrived to tear down the track.

Asbjorn now had a beat up, old Jester Classic rusting up in his backyard, and he didn’t know who to go to to source original parts, but he quickly figured out who might have an idea, maybe the owner of Mirror Park Tuning could help him. After a brief talk, Elias gave a name and a number for Asbjorn to contact, a japanese number and a name, ‘’Oshiro’’ Asbjorn shrugs, and shoots his shot and texts the number. He waited a few minutes, until he heard a pling in his pocket. A few weeks went by, and he heard another pling. Asbjorn panicked and grabbed his Shinobi, and made his way down to the docks. He drove around a few times, until he found a grounded container and a man standing in front of it beckoning him over. The man asked if he was looking for Chuck, Asbjorn responded, ‘’Yes, I didn’t expect you to be so… thin.’’ he smiles and hands over an envelope to the mechanic, in exchange, he is given a code to the container. He opens it up and nods, seeing a few crates, he goes in and looks over. An original flat six engine, a six speed transmission, paint, new bumpers, a spoiler and wheels. He nods. ‘’I’ll have to get someone to help me, thank you.’’ Chuck leaves, and a day goes by before Asbjorn asks Don to help him, using his Caracara and his own Kamacho. Asbjorn borrows a forklift from one of the sleezy workers, and begins to load up his Kamacho and Don’s Caracara with the crates. After they were done, they moved to Mirror Park to drop off the parts, now they needed to get the vehicle to Mirror Park Tuning, luckily a helpful mechanic answered the call and helped move the vehicle Using the engine hoist in the shop, he cracks open the crate to find the beautiful engine, hooking it up and guides it down with the lift, lowering it into the engine bay where it’s fitted. Now came the real job, he straps on a mechanic outfit and begins to install the transmission, two new bumpers, spoiler, skirt and a brand new hood. He straps on a mask and grabs a spray gun, and begins to coat it in the gunmetal silver, he waits for it to dry, and then drives it out. The Jester Classic, was now restored.

A few days had gone by, and Asbo just couldn’t let the image of the banged up, rusty vehicle sitting in the scrapyard, it’s almost like it called to him whenever he tried to think about something else, he had to talk to someone about it, and who else than his best friend, and Chairman of Burnout Nation, Don Mozzarella? After explaining what he had seen, Don wanted to go take a look at the vehicle, Don was shocked to see such a legendary vehicle, rusting away in the sandy environment, and that’s when they heard a bang, and a ‘’elló, esse?’’ A sweaty, greasy mechanic with a heavy spanish accent approached Don and Asbo in the scrapyard back lot, noticing they were looking at the white vehicle, ‘’It’s a classic esé, but nobody of us has time or money to restore it puta, it’s just too much!’’ Asbo reached into his back pocket, taking out a stack of money he made from DJing at the legendary PINK SANDWICH, he held it over to the mechanic. ‘’I take it, no questions asked.’’ The mechanic didn’t hesitate to take the money in exchange for the car, which was basically just a chassis and four wheels. Now came the question, how to get the car to a safe spot? He thought of a few names, but none of them seemed to be right for the project, that’s when he reached out to a friend of Burnout and himself, Conrad McMount of LSC. Asbo told him about the project, and Conrad was more than down to help him, they met up at LSC and were bound for Sandy for Operation Rescue JDM Conrad had brought out the new Mule Flatbeds LSC had installed, which made the operation more official and flashy, Once they arrived, Conrad backed up to the vehicle and attached the car to the flatbed, before hitching it up With the vehicle secured, they headed towards Los Santos once more, with no idea where to place his newly purchased junk pile, He decided it would be best to just park it behind his house until he could figure out what to do with it next.

A summer breeze hit Asbo’s cheek once he stepped out of his house, he looked up in the skies to see a sunset, he smiled to himself and hopped on his BMX, trailing towards city parking where he had his favorite street car parked, The Sultan Classic, he parked BMX and switched out for his Sultan, he turned on the ignition and felt a rush once he heard the flat-four, twin turbo engine hiss! He adjusted the mirrors and drove off towards Vinewood, he parked and hopped out to take a quick snap of his ride. He hopped in again and began to drive towards Sandy, where he noticed the gas indicator popped, it was reaching zero, he sighs and pulls over into the nearest gas station. He hops out and prays to the various oil barons that there’s enough gas in this beat up station to make it to another gas station, he tilts his head and looks at the abandoned, run down building in the middle of Sandy, the decades of neglect has taken its toll on the old station. Curiosity got the best of him, and he went to have a look at the back of the shop, noticing a few, beat up cars and vans. There wasn’t anything impressive in the pile of junk cars, he went to leave the scrapyard but suddenly, something caught his attention at the corner of his eye, he gasp and mutters, ‘’holy shit, isn’t that a-’’ To be continued.

The idea of a Pop Culture Car Meet has been brewing in Asbo’s head for a while, afterall a lot of people modify their car to look like their favorite cars from anime, movies or series. The most popular one is ofcourse The Fast and the Furious series, which has inspired countless people to mod their Elegys, ZR350s and Jester Classics! Asbo contacted a good friend of his and local legend, James Eriksen to inquire about sponsoring a Elegy Retro Custom, he of course wanted to help out Burnout, so he handed of keys to a brand new imported Annis Elegy Retro Custom, Don and Asbo modified it to look like Paul Walker’s Skyline from 2 Fast 2 Furious. Modified with a twin turbo, RB26DETT 2.6-liter, DOHC, 24-valve straight six! It was raffled off to the public via a raffle, where tickets were 2.000 dollars each, and the winner was declared to be Jennifer Sinclair! Congratulations. Here’s a few of the vehicles that were at the car meet! Dominic Toretto, The Fate Of The Furious. Paul Walker, The Fast And The Furious. Takeshi Nakazato, Initial D. Doc Brown, Back 2 The Futurue Bruce Wayne/Batman. The Batman Series. James Bond, Goldfinger

Asbjorn Schmidt - Bid Withdrawn.

It is.

Just make it 1:1 for full immersion!! I jest, 6:1 sounds good.

Bump!!

When Asbjorn was a fresh-faced and had just stepped off the bus to the great city of Los Santos, he knew he needed a vehicle, and he knew it needed to be a hot hatchback, he didn’t know which one yet, but it was something he never forgot. Getting gifted a Zombie Bobber by a kind soul, Asbjorn had set his sights on a vehicle that was just being imported by all the major dealerships, the Maxwell Asbo. Asbjorn spent hours upon hours fishing in various locations around the state, some he got robbed at, some he made friends at, once he had sold enough he headed straight to Auto Services to purchase his hot hatch, brand new, fresh off the truck he rolls it out and takes a good look at it, and he starts to add improvements. A double exhaust system, race transmission, and even a cheeky turbo to fit. He grabbed a pair of bitching rims and slapped it on his little ricer car. Soon the Maxwell Asbo became synonymous with Asbjorn, and now Asbjorn was dubbed ‘’Asbo’’ By Maccy Kentworth, his closest friend. When the idea of Burnout Nation started to form, they needed a mascot car, something to base their idea on, and they all chose Asbo’s Asbo. While Asbo doesn’t drive his Asbo that often, it’s still a vehicle close to his heart, and when he needs a #sadboycruise, he slaps on some tunes on his gladen sound system and cruises around.

Asbjorn Schmidt. 10.000.000

After Yuki Nakamura finished up building Burnout’s club in The Lot, Asbjorn decided it time to complete a dream of his, building his own brewery and make the best brew pub Los Santos has ever seen, getting a lot of inspiration with the interior design of Steamboat Beers, a favorite of the city, before it closed down. Asbjorn is a skilled alchemist when it comes to cocktails, however, the beer is truly where the creative talent shines, brewing everything himself and serving up the freshest of beers to his customers. Asbjorn decided to open up the pub randomly, inviting a Los Santos Motorcycle Club and Amarillo Aces, as well as sending out adverts and a blip. With his brewpub menu, both the food and beers started to fly off the shelf, making it a successful opening night! Asbjorn doesn’t aim to serve huge crowds, but to create a place where people can sit down, relax, and talk to each other. A dartboard was set up by Don, and now they needed someone to play, and that’s where ‘’The Bet Of The Century'’ was set. Don and Asbjorn were gonna play each other, the loser had to get the winner's hair.. And after losing by ONE point, Asbjorn had to rock a ponytail for a week. Asbjorn decided to open up the pub the next week, it was a very quiet Friday but that didn’t mean no fun were gonna be had. Jose Dyer challenged Bruce Hensley for a game of darts. If Jose won, Bruce had to lose the cowboy hat for a week, and if Bruce won, Jose had to get a cowboy hat for a week. Jose beat Bruce with a beautiful 2-1 victory, and that means no cowboy hat for a week. The Brewery got a few visitors, Harvey Xing and Darragh Curtins paid a visit, and after watching the game of dart, they were gonna have a game, Harvey Versus Darragh, winner will decide the losers haircut for a week, a common theme at the pub. Harvey annihilated Curtins, who now has to rock pink dreads for a week.
