2006 Nopi Nationals Atlanta Georgia Pictures

...just got back to Charlotte from the Nopi Nationals Motorsports Supershow at the Atlanta Motor speedway.

I've been every year since 2001 and this time was the coolest. The TL got all kinds of compliments and I met lots of people. My friends coerced me into parking the TL near all of the JDM styled cars and low and behold in doing so I was able to come across Clint Davis(professional photographer)! He did a photoshoot of the TL in front of an airplane hanger and took probably 200 pictures! I'm too anxious to see how they turn out...i know theyre going to be awesome.

Here are some of the pictures of cars that caught my attention...Acura's posted first!...

Ron Jon booth








3rd gen silver/black on 22s

Finally, someone with their head on straight!! Missing a few days of school (or work) is no big deal...life > school/work.

How the hell did I miss that M5? I could've sworn I had walked ALL OVER trying to find everyone! LMAO I found the Ron Jon booth, Eric and Henryk, but I couldn't find ptk681's Kumho booth.

If I hadn't forgotten my digicam, I would've posted the NSXs, lambo, and S2Ks.

if the show wasnt so far away maybe or if I had a trailor and a truck and someone could take my car down and I could fly in to atlanta maybe. however being school in ny and having a 4 hour drive home to pa and then its about a 13 hours drive to atlanta I can really take 2 weeks off one before and one after to do the driving.

You've got to be a trooper Jason!...that green integra with the red TE37s from Ontario was there. Another guy from Arizona drove his Legend all the way to Atlanta. There were PA and NJ license plates all over the place.

Man, see'in your 5% tint makes me want to do it again. I use to have it on my 1st gen TL and it was soo nice not to have anyone even attempt to stare into your car, haha. Those TL's are pretty insane.

Have any more pics of the black TL's sound system that you showed a lil slip of with the W7/W8 in it?

It must've been on the South end and I must've overlooked it when I was there looking for Eric and Henryk's TLs.

And congrats for placing, Henryk! That's awesome considering I didn't see that many 3G TLs there.

John from Cropwell, Alabama won 1st place in the class with his 05 Acura TL.

The blue 2nd gen with black wheels won 2nd in the class.

Guess what place my TL came in?!?
