Is there any plan rotor folk? Are we gonna meet up and smash in force or is everyone just gonna trickle in on their own?

It was alright this year. A lot of nice cars but I had more fun last year when I entered my car with some friends.
Evos are becoming the new civics, everyone has one. I still like the Integras with Type R front ends though. Seems like the VIP style is starting to catch on.
I did get in the background of a bunch of model pictures making funny poses and faces, bet they'll blur me out though

93'roadwarrior, saw your car and it looked sick. I even saw you in your car with your lady. So I decided to move on since it looked like you didn't want to be bothered.

You left to early, I ended up pulling 2nd best in show overall. Sucks that they made you park outside, we needed some more rotaries in there.

Oh, and that extremely hot girl, you know, the hottest one at the show, that was Misa Campo. Apparently she is quite the famous car show model.

All in all, it was a fun show. Alot of nice cars out there. Seeing all those Lexus, Infinity, and even the Nissan 240 VIP style cars gave me that bug again. One of these days, I am going to have to do one of those.

93'roadwarrior, saw your car there, but didn't get a chance to meet you. First time I have seen that spoiler, very nice.

Of course I forgot to bring my camera so didn't get any pictures but someone grabbed some nice shots of me on the road in the morning, dew still all over the car.

Congrats on the win neoseven...

That green turbo RX-8 and the White 2006 WRX next to it are customers of mine. Its a clean RX-8, but I don't think its was 4th place worthy.

Jeremy helped to correct some of the problems related to poor quality work done by Cork Sport. He was also very helpful when my battery went out on the way down to 7stock, picking up a temporary battery to get me back on the road.
