After I was done with Vishnu I thought that I saw a bunch of cars leaving for the drive so I just drove out to the Junction to find it empty. We waited around a bit but figured we were way ahead of you guys so I continued on to Mt. Ham with @JakeFromStateFarm (nice driving btw, I could see you smiling on some of those turns and smell your tires as well) and @Hiros86.

In the end I guess it was good I left early though, cause I had to meet my bro at 5pm in SJ and just barely made it there. Livermore to SJ through Mt. Ham is a seriously long drive. Not sure I'll be doing that again.
We had our driver's meeting at 2:45 and rolled out shortly after 3PM.
Yeah there was definitely some confusion because I announced the drivers meeting around 2:30 and we saw several cars line up and leave the area. I wasn't sure what was going on until someone mentioned it was the Vishnu buyers going to complete the transactions. I don't know if anyone else followed them thinking it was the drive. Anyways we had our meeting and rolled out to the first photo stop outside the park, where there were a few more cars already waiting.

Yeah it's a long drive, but one of my favorites. You do need to have plenty of time to enjoy it and stop for breaks etc.

Hey Guys and Gals:

First of all, we had a blast at the 86 Fiesta this weekend. Sweet rides, Nice people, and overall a great turnout. We are very happy deliver a solid tune to this market and your guys's enthusiasm makes us want to work even harder on bringing you the best Vishnu has to offer. It was great to personally meet some of you, and even more of a privilege to install the tune on your cars. Apologies to any who wanted to pickup a Tablet but were unable to as we sold out! Luckly we still have OpenFlash Tablets in stock at Vishnu HQ, so if you are still interested, give us a call and mention the meet for a discount on your order. Huge shoutout to @86_ZN6 and hes crew for organizing and hosting the event. We can't wait for next year!!!



Pictures coming soon!

Yup, saw you leaving the lake while rc51ed was on my tail. Woulda' waved, honked, flashed or something if I wasn't so focused on Ed's dire need to get to the lake haha.

Saw a red one too, with what looked like female arms, sticking out of both windows. Woulda waved too but *see response above*

Overall, a great experience and a shocker to see so many cars and people. Where do you all hide out at?

Lol, I was only trying to keep up. The sc was making a run for it as I was taking advantage of the draft you were creating. But you can blame your heavy foot on my excitement for the meet...👍👍👍👍🚜
