Thanks for all of you who came out. We had a nice variety today, and a very good turnout... hahah I guess I do have some planning skills .

Anyways, for those of you who took pics, post them when you get the time. I guess I'll see you all at the next meet... Eibach's? Maybe we could plan another one or something...

O btw... whos paying the 10 bucks? I'd rather not...

Angry fukk gas stations!

fun. thansk. glad we took so many pix. hope there are lots of mine. i fugged my car up on they way home. i almost want to give up on it now. feels like some one smacked me in the face with a shovel and hit me in the chest with a sledgehammer. ugh. it's not really that bad. i'm ok. it just hurts everytime i look at it. you'll see it at eibach's cuz i'll never be able to afford to fix it. at least not with a $2500 deductible. i'll just wait until i have to renew my ins in a few months and drop my deductible down to $100. if anything i'll just finish all my mods to it anyways and then ask just below the price of a brand new base manual for it right before the new model comes out. maybe i'll use this as my excuse to get me that 08 cbr600rr that i initially wanted instead...

Wow...what happened dave? Is that why you and anthony didn't catch up to me cuz i was driving 65-70 mph on the highway so you guys could catch up...but i never saw you before i had to exit.

edit: nm my post just lagged, so that is why it took you so long even when duy blasted away, i kept on driving like a grandma waiting...sorry i didn't wait for you at the gas station. i thought you guys would have caught up to me.

I was actually thinking of doing that and just doing a double post in here referring to the ones in that thread.
I am currently working on about 4.5k photos that I need to go through and/or edit this week so I might be a little slow.

It was great meeting all of you...some for the first time and some for the second.
I might be able to identify some people in the "fit sighting thread" now

And los_creeper sure glad it was not worse! You had me goin there for a minute...I thought you had like a collision! odd that we had that conversation with Squirtle about the door skins(haahaa I forgot her name... sorry)
@#$% I forgot your name too!
I think I can figure it out...we have the technology
I gotta hear you HFP exhaust from inside and a comparable driveby. I completely forgot BTW that HFP was way bigger than I thought it would be

saiko's exhaust had a nice deep sexy note, yet was not obtrusive and it looked pretty good too!

I have about 20 done and probably at least 2-3x that to go. I work on one once about every 10-30 mins. I use it as a break from my other editing which is a bit more monotonous. They should start going up soon in the pics and vids thread.
Just remember that it was nightime and I never got to use the tripod (k I did use it once but when I took the pic one of the Fits drove away...hahaa, so I didnt bother again) and everytime I started taking pics we had to leave! HAAHAAAHAHAAAAAA it became quite comical actually ... I didnt get a ton of solid shots....hmmm...lemme see.... I just checked and I only took about 160pics which is surprisingly more than I said and thought i did yet way, way less than I would normaly... hmmm go figure...
With all the shuffling we did its funny that the meeting place was
In-n-Out which became the theme for the night .....gosh I am so funny...

I know what you mean. During drift events and major car events, I would come home with up to 1500 photos. Then for the next 2-3 days i'd be sifting through, choosing, labeling, making sure all the information about a given car is matched up with the right photos.....that was a lot of work back then. And then I'd send it off to our production editor to be cropped and sent off to the lab to be color corrected. lol

btw, i'm a new father to a 20D. woohoo. And somehow I ended up with a bastard child, 10D. Two of them actually. Once I recondition them, I'll turn around and sell them.
