Back in LA. The meet was awesome. Glad to hear everyone there had fun. I hope the drag-along girlfriends weren't too upset. 
I'm glad to see all the ABP's up in there.
Star of today's show: shiny(dirty)bluecls and his broke ass headlamp cover.
Definitely a good turnout, and it looks like we'll be undergoing getting some acurazine.com So-cal t-shirts.
Almost everyone said yes they would be interested 
Fun day y'all. Good seeing everyone.

Now for those who heard about the Rosemead pre-meet drama... here it is frame by frame.
some notes:
-Shiny's car was pulled out by a couple of very courteous moving truck guys (neither of which spoke english); while one extremely courteous gentleman stood in the middle of the freaking on ramp and stopped traffic.
-All you need to do to move a 3500 entry level luxury coupe is a large semi-truck, and some moving rope
Who knew

Although it seemed to be the joke of the day, we're all very glad Shiny came out of it unscathed. Shaken up I'm sure, but unscathed.

Hey guys, just uploaded the pics. There's 57 out of 66, I don't know which're missing but eh. The pics are not in order, sorry about that. And if I missed your car, sorry about that again. It'll probably be showing in the video I got of the walk around.

first of all, everyone give thanks to the Huys(and Jon). this meet was pretty damned great. great location, weather, cars, attendance and vibes. it was cool meeting you guys and seeing so many prettiful cars. we even attracted passer-bys. some unwanted or otherwise. i have to say i really loved this location. now we have to find somewhere to go for a drive so that we can get some sweet video footage. cars are meant to go/move. we'll work on that for the next time around(rumors of a meet?). we could've had an even bigger number of cars if it hadn't rained but that's cool.

It was fun to see everyone and their hot cars. I was skeptical about the weather initially but it ended up being perfect. Looking forward to seeing everyone's pics.

Heres my pics =D 73 of em *CLICK THE LINK!* Sorry for the multi-shots of the same thing. Just making sure my pics weren't blurry, so basically I took more than one for a lotta them. I think I got everyone's car unless you barely showed up, and parked away from the main crowd. Enjoy!

We should get a semi-high quality version of this vid, and put it on bittorrent or something, and download it that way. It'd be more efficient? If some of ya guys got some fast lines, we could transport the huge file easily The current quality is kinda on the low side haha =(. Maybe go directly from the video to a compressed avi format? divx, xvid, etc?
