On a positive note I was able to meet some really cool guys from the 7club. I was the blue turbo FB guys. I am looking forward to coming out to a few other meets so let me know what's going down.
Thanks for coming guys! Sorry it WAS understaffed. Live and learn though. oh and just fyi, Fun run refunds were given back...where else...where they were sold at!

It was the first of it's kind....last year was only a garage sale at Greddy's office. Again, it was understaffed, but for being the first time something like this was done, it was decent.

I figured it would be there, but wasn't worth standing in another line. Consider it a donation. Next year you guys should have more Greddy models as well, I only saw one.

cool, glad you had a good time. A lot of the clubs expressed how it was cool to meet w/ each other and hang out--something i had hoped would happen when i had invited all of you. =)

I had a good time. Saw some Rx7 friends, Took some pics of some cool cars. I thought the portable Dyno was a pretty cool idea. also the fun runs and the auto x thing was neat to watch for a while. All in all, AWESOME event for the price Maybe Next year i can get my car up on the dyno and see what it puts down

btw, i think i saw two models. But i wasnt allowed to look at them with the GF by my side

Thanks for holding this festival for us. i look forward to it next year.

They are considering it.... Maybe if there is more pressure from the public it would help convince them.
