No we didnt make plans to meet before hand. But, Matt and I (whoever got there first) were going to reserve the next two spots so all the FD's could be lined up together.
I will be at the show tonight but, since my Tee time got moved back to 2:00, I wont be there untill 6:30 - almost 7:00.

I took some pictures tonight so those who didnt get a chance to make it out still get to see the show. It was nice to have some great FD's out tonight, and it was even better finally getting a chance to put a face to a screename! The show was ok, but, as I promised here are pics of the best 3 cars at the show!

There wasn't really anything overly impressive, a two Sti's a sweet S2k, and a **** load of Scion's. I saw some Honda trying to do a burnout but rather burned his clutch really bad, that was funny. I don't know I really didnt find anything else to take pictures of myself.

I'm sorry wha?
Hawt...Garret's car is a monster. It sounds sooo mean when he starts it up. The RXforspeed you've got a real nice clean red FD as well. I liek the black wheels. BTW..your girl friend looks really familiar...I could be mistaken though.

I totally would have stayed longer, hell Adam almost had me convinced to put my broke *** FC in, but the girlfriend wouldn't let me. She didn't want to stay that long.
Great cars guys!

As long as you don't kill my wallet 
I would love to get the car painted, I just don't have the money to right now. I'm planning on needing a new motor and a FMIC and Rtek 2.0 within the next 6 mo.
Plus I'm paying off the car so I can get a freakin better credit score. Not to mention I just bought new struts, springs, engine & tranny mounts, pilot & throw out bearings, pads and rotors, and still want to do a complete tune up all within the last month. So money is fairly tied up.
I really do need a respray because the dumbass who fixed the front end before couldn't paint the side of a barn. The WHOLE CAR has overspray, the front bumper skin has no flex agent so when the previous owner nudged the front end the causee the whole thing to start flaking off.
Not to mention I just took off my mirrors to paint so rusty weather stripping, yeah the PAINT ON MY DOOR CAME OFF because it wasn't masked properly.
some people cant even jack the car up right, VISIBLY crushed the side of the car!
AHHH! [/rant

After you toasted the Saleen, I pulled up along side of him. The look on his face was priceless, it was like, "WTF, not another Rx-7!" I was going to see if he wanted to go again, he just hit the brakes and hid a few cars behind me. I think you hurt is feelings!

I swear I'm just going to quit working on my car....
Took me 5 hours to install tranny bushings. Snapped one of the mounting bolts IN my tranny for the cross member. Just great. They weren't kidding when they said it vibrate considerably more.
