Thanks for the great pics Fred! Those pics #12 ,13 and entering the freeway was pretty crazy! I remember from the stop i just punched it and damn! Had to let off the juice a little bit because i wasn't getting too much traction. But definitely crazy entering the fwy. I loved it! Should do that again.

Sorry it took so long to post - just now recovering. The meet came together well. Thanks to Angela for bringing the free burgers and beer, and everyone else who brought chicken, drinks, chips, plates, utensils and condiments. And the sponsors who showed up. And Brad for cooking his brains out. And those who showed up early and stayed late cleaning. Everyone was great. Again, it all came together very nicely. Good Job Angela Glad you got to go out with the boys after and relax

First 5 out of a billion. On the way there with the DB9 that tried to get away after we merged and things opened up on the 134, but we reeled him back in And seeing a new CL65 - 3-4 mos old - with some kid with a backward hat on drivin it, then we found out it was Lexani! These are just the drive there. Start of a fun day!

Benzoboi - Okay, I did see your ride, the stock wheels thru me off. CONGRATS on the award.

Alex - You missed a good one! I seriously expect Usman, and you to show up. He was to give each of us a test drive on his supercharged Bimmer. In fact there was couple of guys on the list I was hoping to finally meet; Robert (AMGSC), Darrick (BrabusCLK04), Mikey (The Godfather) was a no show....and oh yeah, the himself - Sean (Thericker aka BlownS500)!

Yeah make sure you say hi next time. I don't plan on holding anymore meets for a while. It's tons of work, and I didn't even get to bring my Benz. I had fun checking out all the cool cars though. Nothing like hanging with my friends. I can't believe I have known some of you guys for a couple of years now. Time flies.

For those of you that know Carlos aka Saprissa I just got done chatting with him online for the first time in a couple of months. He just got to his military base after leaving Afghanistan on Saturday. I was worried about him and happy to hear that he is safe. I'm sure he will post on this thread after he gets some sleep. He doesn't plan on returning until summer so a meet is out of the question until the end of summer. Someone else will have to take over in the meantime. I paid for a year at the Rose Bowl so if someone would like to take it over let me know.

Thank you for coming guys that was fun. The lady at the Rose Bowl told me next time we could set up a strip for some test runs. If she only knew what we consider test runs. We cleaned up the trash and made them happy.

I want another one soon as well!

Alex, I don't know if I read from one of your other posts, but I could have sworn that I heard that you live in the SouthBay. I know over at E46fanatics, they had a "mini-meet" at the In-N-Out at Torrance Crossroads, maybe we can schedule one there. Or, even at one of Ling's VIP Buffets!

I live pretty close to you, in Torrance.

I go by Torrance Crossroads a lot to get to Costco or the gym, that's why I thought the meets there would actually be cool...
