Hey Tony, look on the bright side, at least you got a detail as a parting gift. I didn't get squat. SUCKED hard. Everyone got something except me. Drow me a bone or something. I'll get them next time.

yeah, it was great to see y'all. Linh, Lisa, Tony, and of course James. Great times, great times.

Damn, I never thought I'd be so depressed after a meet. My car is so damn ordinary compared to a lot of your cars. Guess that means I'm gonna have to catch up.
Hah you shoulda parked your car next to mine... it felt naked compared to all the stuff the other cars had

Hahaha...No, I know I don't stand a chance against the Persian Delight. I saw his photos circulating around the internet and he definitely puts all import models to shame. Was the Persian Delight there? I think I saw him and wanted to ask him to take a photograph with me (as all guys ask import models to photograph with them) so I can carry the photo and tell everyone I actually know the hot and sultry P.Diddy...

I put up that picture to taunt FrankW because I won the model car.

The Riverside Caravan came out of the raffle 3 for 3. We all won something.

Obviously the Raffle was rigged. I was gonna have a mod, but no carlos is a *****. :p


The Persian Delight was there, he was the clown with the Helmet on, and also the butt of all jokes.

This was an awesome meet. Big thumbs up to the organizers. This was my first Benz meet and it was cool meeting you guys. I didn't get a chance get everyone's names and introduce myself to more members though.

Hey Tony... thanks again for the water bottle. It's a trip how we know each other from high school. Small world huh?

Also thanks to John and Peter for chilling with a newbie like me. I'm looking forward to the next meeting.

I can't wait to start modding.
