Calling all SoCal car owners and beyond for this meet!!!

Ladies and gents,

This is a very special event for a very special person. I hope you can all come out and support Nick and his family in this dire time of need. Remember that we are all car fanatics, as Nick is, and that our love for cars can bring us all together for this event. I hope to see you all there. Add your name at the end of the post if you plan on attending. Thank you,



Recently, Nick Reed, a fellow enthusiast and friend was diagnosed with Acute Lymphocytic Leukemia pre-B and Acute Respiratory Distress Syndrome. He began his road to recovery in the ICU of St. Joseph’s Hospital in Orange, CA and has recently been transported to UCI Medical Center. To combat the A.R.D.S, they have kept Nick heavily sedated and on a ventilator. He has also been undergoing a heavy regimen of chemotherapy for the Leukemia, and is slowly moving down the road to improvement. Nick’s family has setup a blog to keep his friends and family members up-to-date on his treatment and overall condition: http://www.caringbridge.org/visit/nicholasreed/journal and http://nicksninjas.com/joomla.

WHEN: Feb 6th, 2010 11:0am -4:00pm

WHERE: Race Technologies LLC 1590 Sunland Ln. Costa Mesa, CA 92626


WHAT to expect: Music by local Dj's, some of the best exotics and street cars, raffle giveaways, and you can take a tour through the Race Technologies facility and find out how Brembo brakes are made and assembled.

WHO is hosting: Forgestar Wheels, GIAC tuning, Brembo (Race Technologies), K&N, AE Performance, Surfside Detail, Oakley, and many more.

WHY: Because a fellow enthusiast needs our help in a very trying time. We will be taking donations and all proceeds go to Nick Reed and his family. Please try to come out and enjoy the California weather rain or shine. There will be tons of cars and a good time. Please drive safe and post this in every So Cal forum possible if not already posted. Thank you and we hope to see everyone there.

Thanks for the support!

Unfortunately, I won't be able to make it, because it's my Goddaughter's first birthday on that day :/
