I guess I'll just leave this here

Just got back from Irvine...I miss the weather there. Omaha is cold and rainy. I got there around 1pm and managed take lots of pics while I was there for a few hours. Amazing cars guys! Wish I could have had my 7 out there with them all. Expensive show for me though since I couldn't find a damn ride...60 bucks round trip for being 7 miles away...ugh thanks guys

Orange County has a fine public transit system. Just a buck fifty a ride.

When you live somewhere you tend to learn these things. The trip was short notice and didn't have much time to plan. Meh, I just cabbed it from the hotel. No biggie

I figured it out and I'm from Houston. That's in Texas. If it wasn't a biggie why'd you mention it.

I'm just razzing you... I'm hopped up on Sugar Babies and Cherry Kool-aid so I need an outlet.

Cuz 60 bucks is a rip off lol. I figured it'd be 15 at most to get there and another 15 back. The hotel would have shuttled me 5 miles out. I suppose I could have had them drop me off and walked the rest of the way lmao. I just had them call me a cab...I asked them about public transportation but they didn't suggest the bus

Next time stay at the Doubletree. .25 miles from the event and the party is onsite.

Ep1c **** happens at the Doubletree and best of all what happens at the Doubletree stays at the Doubletree.

Prob wont be a next time unless I drive the FC up. This was a business trip that I rebooked and paid for an extra night stay and rebooking fees. Technically it cost me probably 300 bucks to go to the event. What's an extra 60 haha

You need some homies. Sevenstock can be very affordable if you plan in advance and share a room, etc.

holy crap 60 for 7 miles?

Damn it was 120 for 400 miles for me! Lol

It was my first time out and I had a blast, thanks to everyone who talked with me and shared your ideas and thoughts and of course, passion.

We along with quite a few other AZ people made it out there late friday evening and we are definetly glad we made it

Nah, it was 60 all in all for 14 miles round trip with tip. About 25 per trip. Taxis are a huge rip off anyway...would have been half that price where I live.

Like I said there was no advance planning to be had as I rebooked the flight the week before. I didn't even know sevenstock was happening the same weekend I was going to be flying in on that sunday and when I found out figured **** it I'll pay to check it out. Had a good time regardless...would have been awesome to be there with friends but I took lots of pics for them to enjoy

Great pictures. After reviewing the all, the best are on the first page.

If my CSUF Titans make it to the college world series again, perhaps we can connect while I'm there so I can check out your mid west RX7 represent.

Yeah the courtyard pics were some of the nicer ones. I was loving the r100s though, especially the yellow one. Ah yes, the CWS...yeah let me know if you make it out. We have a pretty good rx7 community out here. Plenty of us who get together when we can to shoot the **** and cruise.

Epic indeed, although with a live streaming webcam this year it didn't exactly stay there.
