and James, yeah he likes to rack up the miles =)
Yes i do!
The clown can bring his own helmet.
Funny is that after the run and pulling up to the parking lot he was still wearing the hellmet? :p
I can't make it the first week of November either, I'll be at SEMA and a wedding in Vegas.
You'll be at SEMA too? Dang! Sounds like another MB meet is about to happen! lol :p So are you driving down there lisa or flying? I'll be there and i think Carlos as well. Let me know.
Guess I missed out on quite a meet...oh well not like my car is anything to look at compared to some of you all...Look foward to the next meet...
No worries mang. There's always next time. I think the next one is going to be in January or February. Oh btw Jay was lookin for ya. Hit me up on IM later when you're available.
my GF decided to come w/me so it didn't leave me any time to go around and chill
Wait your GF? Wtf? You said she was your espousa? Guess you bought both of them huh? :p
Well, I probably should of kept my mouth shut, but were would the fun be in that.
Good point! :p

Actually, it does work, but you need to have your front license plate on so they can take your car's picture and correlate with the FasTrak holders....

lol Actually we weren't on that "fast group". We didn't even do the "run". Heck Vic called me in the morning and he said he can't make the Glendale caravan because of some belt issue so he headed down to Evo and caravaned with them. So it was me, tyson, danny, dan and narek for the glendale caravan. Then met up with Rowland H/Diamond B crew. That caravan was awsome! Except for FrankW's last second exit notification. But nonetheless great caravan!

He rode with you and you didn't ask him or ask for his info? I saw him too and he kept on video taping pretty much all the cars there and asking them to rev their engines. Not exactly sure what he's trying to compile on that video but it'd be interesting to see.

i have tracked down most of the random picture taken at the event. I WOULD LIKE ALL OF THE PHOTOS. this way all you have to do is go to one place. notice some of these photos at the meet gallery have almost 200 views. that is AWESOME!!!

if you have a gallery somewhere on the net pls post the link here. i can transfer the pics to the benz group gallery via hylerlink uploading.

also on the photogallery you can add comments.

well i did ask his name but i am a moron and dont remember names for crap.

so i admit i am a complete goof ball for not taking down his info.

maybe we should offer a prize for getting his contact info.

on a side note i think i have gotten at least 10-15 requests for his video footage.

Wow, this place looks so neat, I might have to go check it out before we even have a meet.

What? Lisa, you have tickets to the SEMA show? Need an escort?
