I'd like to thank all those involved for getting this meet setup. You guys did a great job. The location was excellent....tons of room and wideopen spaces, plus easy to get into and out. I was equally impressed by the attitude and deamenor shown by many of the attendees.
After 7 1/2 years of owning my TL, I was finally able to take it to another meet.
I'm glad I was able to meet a few of you guys today, and I look forward to seeing more of you in the future.
I've got more pics that can be found HERE .

Maybe go directly from the video to a compressed avi format? divx, xvid, etc?

some notes:

-All you need to do to move a 3500 entry level luxury coupe is a large semi-truck, and some moving rope

great meet peeps 
some of you cheated and washed your cars. mine wasn't which is why i parked further away 
i'll wash next time, rain or not. and probably have a new mod since it's tax return time 
hope i'll have enough for the aero kit, rotors and pads, and a CAI 
and yes salut, you still win the "gun metalist" (doubt that's a word) rims for 3rd gen
and someone needs to bring a portable potty next time

I pledge now that if I go to another meet I WILL get the "gun metalist"??? award again... hehe
about the outhouse... It was nice to have such a huge parking lot to ourselves... but the toilet would be an issue to contend with...

GREETINGS to all my brothers from another Mother.
I am so Pissed that I couldn't make this meet. I wanted to go so bad!
Man Win sorry I flaked man but I woke up feeling like
and after I talked to you I pretty much slept the whole day away.
I am still not 100% so its good I didn't go or I woulda just been spreading my sickness around.
I am glad the meet turned out good.
Win: I am looking into a spot where we can have a meet, if you guys are willing to fork out a little Cash we can even reserve an area and BBQ there. We can hold a super meet there, BBQ, playball , bring a DJ... the sky is the limit!
I will give you more details later. (It even has restrooms)
But it has to be in Spring when no rain is in the forecast.

woooo!!
Hey guys, sorry I havent posted my pictures yet... been really busy. Looks like others have covered pretty much everything though Will def try to get them up tomorrow night (prepare for full 8mp of our group shot 
)
Big thanks to everyone who helped out with the organization/prep before and at the meet. I apologize if I was being a bit rude and affronted while trying to get everyone in place for the group photo... it's tough with so many cars/people and no megaphone!
Also gotta check out that 900mb video soon.
Had a GREAT time, stayed tuned for some of my shots...

I was thinking of PCH drive, but don't really know how long we should drive and where to find a parking place enough for large # of cars without paying parking fee. It seems that not much people would like to cruise on that day so I never brought it up.
Like Sccpu3d said, we might plan to have 2 meet location, one for the main meets, then cruising to 2nd location for pics, but the problem is that not many place can accomodate large # of cars after a short "exciting" cruise on the weekend. Anybody knows a good place beside Angeles Crest? and um, BBQ at the park sound good
