This was a real cool event (people & cars) and hopefully next year will be even bigger! It was great to meet everyone and check out all the solara's. I'll have to book a hotel next year & kick it with you guys - sounded like sat night was a lot of fun. I got a ton of pics & will post them in the other thread later tonight.


LOL - :oops: I forgot about you and your friend Jeff. I feel like so many folks came and I didn't get to spend time talking to everyone. Akora and his GF were another one I hardly got to speak to.

Good times! Can't wait to see the pics.

Haha, thanks. Interiors are a (little) bit different than suits...

Once I finish my interior I'll see if I will ever be up to that challenge again.

Ha, I too was hurt that I didn't get included in your recap list Brian...j/k!

There were a few of you that I didn't get to talk with much or even meet, but there's still the future. Nonetheless, I had a great time and was impressed how cool everyone was. I'm ready for next year!

Chris - I'll do ya one better and let you drive my car next time we meet. It will have to wait until the stage 2 clutch goes in, but that will be next week at the latest.

We'll have to hit Damon up and do that mini-meet soon. It was great meeting you.

James. good lookin suit.

You and I may be similar then.

Aside from working on cars, I am usually and often dressed in suits and my wardrobe contains actually 70% suits, dressshoes, and I have a very nifty penchant for silk ties.

I have no idea if you wear suits just for the heck of it or if it's your normal wear and/or if it's for work, but..

mine is all of the above :).

Great meeting you man, hope you get accustomed to the SG family.

Brian , great to finally meet you, thanks for being concerned when I got a lil tipsy back at Giordano's, hope to see you again soon.


---
Tacti, Reggie, Mike
You all are 1st winners to me.
Your cars have come a long way since last year and I'm glad to see you guys take it home! And great talking to you guys

John (philos)
No sunburn eh this time? I did.. and slight tan lines around where my sunglasses were haha.


---

Soloarange (keep forgetting your damn name)

Great seeing you man, finally got to see that sweet ride in person

---

Akora (forgot your name too. I thikn both of you guys gave it to me when I was drunk)

Great meeting you and tellt he gf I said happy late bday, blame it on the martini.

---

Damon
Great seeing you man, you still owe me a ride, and not that kind either. :drinking:

---
To everyone in general:

It was great seeing you all for that brief time I was there, and for you guys to meet some friends of mine, both car guys and a few model friends. Stay tuned for a few months while I go back to Taiwan for family issues, and I come back with something new up my sleeve.

love you guys.

It was a real pleasure.
where many hate, few will love,
But for those who love,
they'll see what it's like to live.

Great to meet you as well.

Unless I'm working on the car I rarely go out without a sportcoat on - at the very least.

For me, before it was cars it was clothes - My collection of dress shoes is probably worth more than my car (when it was new).

Belated props and thanks on the 15 minute detail job Tact and Michael T did on Sailara last Sunday. My theory was that they just didn't want some dirty nasty ride messing up the Solara section.

I rolled into a new neighbor's driveway yesterday to meet and greet and half way through the conversation he says "Nice car by the way, is that new?" That's all you guys. Mind you this is a guy with some fine rides in his garage who just spent $400K tearing down and building the new house last year. Didn't believe it was a Toyota.
