I like meets that are further away... makes the drive down there much more fun. Just meet up with a group of people and cruise down there with a train of 6-10 bad ass imports.

STIBungy

05-03-2004, 12:28 PM

I'll prolly head down there. Hopefully, I'll have a stereo system installed by then too.

I do too, half the fun (or more) of a meet is driving there in a caravan.

If the weather is nice that day, I'll roll down there in the 2 wheeler.

I was hoping to have the STI's stereo system installed/tuned by then to enter into the car show. Maybe next time.

Storm Girl

05-10-2004, 09:56 AM

Anyone who's interested in doing a caravan from the south, let me know. The meeting location will be in Parker, off Parker Rd & E-470. I have an idea of where we're going.

Sweet Austin, you will be there. I want you to snap a few good shots of my car for me.

Storm Girl

05-14-2004, 05:58 PM

Ok...so any southerner wanna caravan, call me at my home number. We're having some serious alien-like issues with our communication connections. Cell phones not yet re-activated, and no, NO access to the internet!! I had to come to my honey's work to get on! Anyways...contact Alex (bluebyu) and he'll tell you how you can reach me!

See ya'll on Sunday!

Lots of hotties, of course. I liked the russian girl in the black top and white skirt that was sitting in the red porsche.

Thanks all for coming out for the show today!! We had people come from as north as Laramie and as far south as Colo. Springs. Hope all of ya had a good time!

Thanks to Matt & Sean at Demon Tuning for co-sponsoring the event!

Thanks to the judges! I think it was very important for the judges to be unbiased and they did a great job, knew some of the choices were really tough.

Winners for the show were: (Pictures coming soon)
Best Domestic: '71 Stang
Best Import: Mike B's Rx-7
People's Choice: DC's Supra
Overall: Mike B's RX-7

I had alot of people ask when we are going to do this again. I would definately like to do it again and would like the feedback of those who attended to try n make it better in the future (assuming property management and insurance company is cool with it)

Thanks!

Thanks for have the car show, Mike. It was also great to meet you as well.

With the weather being as nice as it was today, your shop will get even more business by having these types of events.

05-16-2004, 09:27 PM

I don't think we were introduced! I was the girl with the camera if you saw one of those, wearing shorts and a pony tail. I hung out with everyone. Should let me know when you're at another meet...I'd love to meet someone more my age than all the kids! LOL...J/K kiddos!

:D I am one of those kid's... I'm about 12 years younger than you. :king: Wait... did you have a tang top on? If so, I was the one floatin with Alex in the button up blue shirt. :)

As we were on the way there everyone was already leaving, so we just went to Paul's house and missed the entire show. I wanted to go too.

Mario

05-16-2004, 09:33 PM

OH! The little kid? I know who you are now. Yes, I had a tank top on. For some reason I was thinking you were older. Oh well...anyways, nice to know who you are finally! LOL We'll talk more next time we meet!

Yea, the lil kid. ;NutKick;

Stu! Paul told me you were heading out, but I had to leave at 3.

Storm Girl

05-16-2004, 09:37 PM

Ok...so for those that stayed to the end...did you agree or disagree with the winners? I think one of the Team Underground guys should've gotten one. Didn't seem quite fair....

BluByU

05-16-2004, 10:53 PM

I just decided to break my rear tire loose leaving the parking lot, MAN I'm sick of that. Good show though, was good to catch up with Kyle and meet Albert with the mazdaspeed. I will get a ride in that one day! Would have stayed but the canyon gods were beckoning with their promise of a curvy ride, too bad the gods were pissed and put slow people in front of us that can't read "STAY RIGHT EXCEPT TO PASS"

Storm Girl

05-16-2004, 10:59 PM

So that's why you guys left....and you didn't even say goodbye. :sniff:

great show, definately worth the drive and a great day for a show. Thanks to Mike and Matt and everyone who helped put this show together, It was a great time and I, along with the rest of the team would definately be glad to come down again for another show in the future. Overall There were alot of real quality cars at this one and a whole bunch of great people. Great to see everyone and talk to ya in person instead of on the pc's.

05-17-2004, 08:40 AM
