The Big Trends in Car Modding



Manny Bojorquez is an Orange County, California resident with over a decade of sales experience in the healthcare, food, and automotive sectors. Manny Bojorquez owns and operates several businesses including Hypercar, a custom tuning company focusing on McLaren vehicles and trophy trucks.

Modding is a lot like fashion, it goes through trends fairly regularly. One of the big trends right now is wrapping overpainting. More and more people are choosing a full-car wrap primarily due to the price but it’s also easier to change more frequently.

Using polished wheels is another trend that has been going strong for some years. For many, wheels are the defining factor of a car’s overall appearance and increasingly, people are choosing fully polished wheels on their cars.

Mostly reserved for drifting, the camber angle is starting to take root everywhere. The look of splayed-out wheels seems to be attractive to many modders even if they do not need camber adjustment from a performance standpoint.

How PEA Works to Reduce the Need for Opioids


With an extensive entrepreneurial background, Manny Bojorquez leads companies in areas such as high-end performance vehicles and California legal and medical assistance. Among Manny Bojorquez’s current ventures is peaCURE, which emphasizes a natural supplementation approach through the anti-inflammatory palmitoylethanolamide (PEA).

One of the vital uses of PEA is in helping alleviate the opioid crisis by offering a natural alternative that is safe and effective for managing chronic pain. A major issue for people who use opioids is persistent mast cell activation, which serves to sensitize nociceptors and jumpstart inflammatory processes in the central nervous system.

At the cellular level, this involves sensitization of somatosensory neurons in the spine and microglial cell activation. With opioids highly effective in activating non-neuronal immune cell populations, the end result is that pro-inflammatory and pro-nociceptive processes are promoted, which increases tolerance to the dangerous drugs.

PEA plays a critical role in mediating inflammatory process resolution and helping maintain cellular homeostasis. It down-modulates the activation of microglia and mast cells and reduces the neuropathic pain and inflammation associated with acute stimuli. These analgesic and anti-inflammatory effects target the pathophysiologic mechanisms associated with chronic pain and can thus reduce opioid dependence.

International Mile Racing Association Sanctions Mile-Long Races


Orange County, California-based entrepreneur Manny Bojorquez leads a diverse array of businesses, including companies that provide customized parts for high-end performance vehicles. Possessing an interest in a variety of racing events, Manny Bojorquez is a member of the International Mile Racing Association (IMRA).

IMRA is not a race organizer, but a sanctioning body for the sport of mile automotive racing that ensures adherence to safety protocols and competition rules across various venues. IMRA sanctions specific types of auto races, including a “Standing Mile” race, where vehicles begin from a stopped position and rapidly accelerate throughout the whole mile race. The winner is the driver with the highest mile-per-hour (MPH) reading at the end of the race.

Other IMRA-sanctioned races include the “Flying Mile,” where vehicles have a 300-foot head start to begin accelerating before reaching the start line, and the “ET Mile,” which differs from the others because the elapsed time, rather than the final MPH reading, is used to determine the winner. Additionally, the association sanctions half-mile, quarter-mile, and 1.75 “Flying Mile” races.

IMRA is also responsible for inspecting the vehicles and courses for safety. Sanctioned race tracks must be at least 45-feet wide and 9,000-feet long for mile-long racing events.
