Thanks to everyone who came out to make it a great meet! What a great turnout, there were so many cars and I hope everyone had as much fun as I did. I kind of regret not taking more photos and spending more time looking at all the cars, but that was because I spent more time talking to more people and in the end that was what made the day great for me. The community is what makes this great. That and the prizes, and the drive. :thumbsup:

Big thanks to JR and his lady Cheryl for organizing this event and handling registration.

Thanks to the vendors and prize donors for some great stuff! :thumbup:

And another big thanks to Jonah (finch1750) and gf Crystal and Jonah's aunt for handling the food/cooking responsibilities, and the other volunteers who helped out with the cooking.

some of the master chefs at work (L to R): Eric (mkiisupra), Rick (crouchingpinoy), Jonah (finch1750) and Jessie (MyRx)

I remember when we use to "oohh" and "ahhh" license plate holder, sharkfin antenna and exhaust mods...now, sky's the limit!

Shout out to Kimi @MizzKiMi for helping me number the cars. There were too many for one person to handle lol. 86 cars, wow!

Rick

wow great pics! load them videos!

Youtube is taking a long time to process the videos but as soon as it gets around to it I'll throw mine up here.

Also for all the lucky winners of the raffle, post what you won so we can document it.

Thanks!

Blox silver shift knob

Meng gift certificate for $40 off BC Racing Coilovers.

I won the Raceseng crank pulley.

not sure what it was called but it's the 2 red cover thingies.

$100 off Openflash Tablet.

20% off labor from WORKS

Private Label MFG Track Pipe

I honestly thought I won an oil change and have no immediate plans for coilovers. So if anyone would like to take this deal, let me know. It's good til the end of the year. I don't want it to go to waste. PM me if interested.

Oil change from works.

I'll give a big thanks to FT86-Speedfactory for the awesome shirt!

No pictures from me really since I was busy cooking, but nice looking shots from others :w00t:

Big shout out to JR for organizing all of this yet again and Cheryl for helping out with reg/raffle/whatever else JR needed. Thanks to Plato for organizing the drive yet again.

Big thanks to Sam, Scott, Eric, Rick, Jesse, and Qui for helping me make sure the food got done in a timely fashion (sorry about the BBQ beans everyone!). And thanks to Derek for his quick cameo as well and manning some time on the grill. Huge thanks to Crystal and my Aunt for getting everything set up and moving the lines along and in general helping with everything I needed. I could not have done it without you guys.

Sadly, my gopro video from the front was mostly an epic fail... I didn't tighten the screw on the mount pivot enough and as soon as I picked up speed (which was pretty darn early haha) the camera swung down and just shot my rear window. :(


Here's the first minute or so of the drive:

I might see if I can reprocess the video to invert and zoom in on the reflections and see if anything else can be salvaged, but that is going to take some time to crunch. :iono:

I got a t-shirt

Won meng Motorsport hid kit!!!

Don't forget to apply a desphering filter to it and then

Hello everyone, this is JC the "useless photographer"

Here is my short video of the meetup, Shot with Nex5N+PZ lens, with crappy stabilizer and homemade slider.XDD
[ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UkSW_SHF5Mc"][video]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UkSW_SHF5Mc[/ame]

Not useless at all JC, that was an incredible video. Not the least because I can see myself in there at least 4-5 times LOL.



So! I was able to do some Blade Runner/McGuyver/CSI style image reprocessing and get some useful footage from the drive after all. :)
