it's a fantastic wide angle lens for full frame cameras. just...be super careful with it since you cant use filters with it. for cropped sensors, i'd recommend a Nikon 10-24mm or 12-24mm f/4. If you're on a budget, get a Tokina 12-24mm instead.

lol, looking at this picture I was expecting the following few pictures to be zoomed in even more, and then back to the original with everyone's face being Marcus.

Quick recap of some memorable events.

RC track - Can anyone drive, without crashing multiple times into the track itself? Or maybe we made the track too hard? Either way, good times besides Steve ruining my NSX "custom" spoiler lol.

Mike w/ the 4G TL - Missed his own award ceremony lol. We even called and left you a message bro! And you called back saying "I'm eating at the buffet right now, what's up." Haha! I guess the food was calling your name.

Neel with the crazy Audio setup - The only thing you're missing is your TL turning into a transformer and doing the dougie. You have a year till the next event, get to it.

After party lounge - Again, without the sponsors, raffle tickets, and t-shirt sales this wouldn't have been as smooth. For legal reasons we obviously couldn't provide "free" drinks, but we took care of the tax. As you noticed, there was none.

Center bar - To the few survivors that made it past the pool bar and stayed for cigars and more shots, you know who you are.

My8thGen Room - Dank.

Dirtbag & TSX room - Continuance of good times. Watching Johny edit at the wee hours of the morning, although my inhibition was blurry at this point still had a good time. Departed there to a yet more private party with Damien also joining the fun.

The After-AFTER party - Could possibly be dubbed the "Fresno Cougar Den". Definitely an experience unexpected. Maybe it's better of elaborated by Mike J. himself.

Caravan Cruise en route LA - For the most part safe, easy going, except for a few sprints, and a run in with a d-bag truck.

Also, while I have everyone's attention. If there are any potential venues, please feel free to PM Roger or I and we can definitely check them out .

Lastly, I'll probably be setting up a smaller post-fest GTG.

Till next year!
