Same here. I drove up last year and only knew some of the Fresno guys. I spent most of the time wandering by myself but it was still fun.

If anyone is looking for me, I'm in the black TL with the big crack in the windshield and probably the only BBK under stock rims.

Yea I'd know no one probably haha. I kind of want to go just so someone could tell me what this noise I get under acceleration is. I THINK it's the heat shield from that service brief but I'd want someone knowledgable to hear it haha (and it doesn't bug me enough to go to a dealer).

Anyways, I'll think about going still. It's just a long drive and I wouldn't know anyone. I know I'd probably still have fun seeing all the cars mine would be like if I had more money haha

Drive on down. What area are you coming from? If you can't find me, call or text. 661-201-2308. I'll introduce you to the two or three people I know.

I'd be coming from either Davis or Manteca. Depending on if I want to visit my parents first.

I'm about 70% on coming even without friends so I'll probably text you and we can meet up. It'd be cool to get some of your knowledge

Bleak man - you gotta come out man!

If you're worried about meeting people I'll PM you my cell phone and you can hit me up @ Acurafest.

Seriously, I have so much fun meeting & greeting with these guys/girls.

How cool is it to meet up with a bunch of people who have similar cars like yourself and shoot the shit about cars and not worry that you're boring some one! lol

That's how I look at it. You gotta go though!

And on that note...I gotta go to the bar.

WongITR, i'm sorry if you or any of the new members were offended. I was simply looking at post count and referring to new members signing up to attend Acurafest. There just seemed to be a lot at one time. I am just referring to the newbie status of your membership here on Acurazine and not to your love of cars, nor the length of time you have been modding cars or your knowledge of cars. I look foward to seeing everyone that signed up and will be joining me and my friends at this awesome event.

I dont ever personally attack anyone on here because I love my car and anyone that shares such an interest in their own Acura (or cars in general), I consider part of my Acura family.

I will say you did sound a little hostile towards my post but if there was a misunderstanding, I totally understand.

Thanks for the members that stuck up for me. Those that know me know Im a pretty chill guy and would love to talk about anything Acura or about my car at anytime. Hope this clears it up and looking foward to seeing your integra at the meet
i aint even mad..i forgot about it as soon as i felt like i said enough responding to your post..but i guess more misunderstanding happened and ur homie came in and back you up. I respect that fully. My hostility sounds just as hostile as urs and Murky (cant remember the exact name) cus we don't know each other at all to be talking all that mess to each other cus that's how you start funk. People tend to evaluate things in their own ways when two strangers are saying "stuff".

Honestly, i have no intention to pick fights/arguments at an event i personally signed myself up to. Non taken from you, cus thats all i wanted from you anyways, knowing exactly what you meant.

my integra aint all that clean, but i just want to enjoy the rest of my time before I get sent out (military).

sorry to post so much, but im not sure how to work this forum just yet so im not sure how to incorporate two quotes in a single response. D90, 16mm-85mm f3.5-5.6 for first pic (but even a cheapo 18mm-whatever kit lens will get that shot done easy with the right post processing. 2nd shot was shot with a 80mm - 200mm f/2.8.

Equipments dont mean a thing, its all about knowing how to use ur equipment, some of my favorite photos are taken by iphones for god sakes.

Shit, pilot is really competitive, their accepting rates has been lower and lower everytime..hopefully 2011 will demand more pilots and go well for him. Tell your friend don't be discourage if he doesn't get it..it is not an easy job to get into! as long as his AFOQT score is solid, he can always reapply each time a rated-board opens (this may sound like gibberish to you but your boi will understand) yah ill see you at acura fest.. just look for an white integra with an asian guy..wait..lol thats really typical hahahha

Use the little box in the lower right side for multiple quotes. It took me two years to figure it out.

One of my best friends is a photographer. Kadenphoto... At one time he was begging for work, doing shoots for free just to get his name out there. Now he has a 6 month backlog.

For all of you that are riding solo, don't worry about it and just come out. We're all friendly peoples here.

I remember when I rode out last year. I met a handful of people, who I hung out with the rest of the day. Noah is a great guy ( I kinda cheated because I met him prior to the meet. He sold me his old rims). So is everyone else I met.

Come say hi to me bro, my name is Anthony. My number is 408-603-4905. I drive an ABP Acura TL-S modded with a 6-speed tranny. My old exhausts went out, and currently I'm running with no resonators, so my car may be obnoxiously loud. But hey, at least you'll know who I am when I roll up to Coffee Lovers.

BTW, What are you doing up in Davis? I just graduated from there last month.

werd thanks for the tip. yeah...that's how most photographers get their work recognized. We usually offer to do work for free as a jump starter of our career; like a self employed internship kinda. I am a little diff, I usually shoot what I like, i hate getting paid to please clients..I rejected a paid wedding job this weekend to go acura fest.. fudge itttt
