Well it seems the good people and police of Missouri don't appreciate the fact that we were in a hurry.

I am the first one home....not because I drive the fastest.

Great Job Steven!



THE WINNERS!

Yea. Jim got home 1st because the half the chicago crew had a run in with missouri state police. And then after that tinteduptls had rim/wheel stud issues. But we all finally made it home safely and that's all that matters

I agree Tyler-you are kind of like THE Kansas City Chapter photographer! You're always at the local meets and obviously at the National Meet-taking pictures at all events. Keep up the great work!

We still need rolling shots of my car too.....

nope. he didnt hit anything, out of no where it just started smoking and he pulled over right away.

we were going about 75-80 and we were pulled over in the left lane, there was no shoulder but a cop came and blocked off traffic.

Thank you to everyone who set this up and volunteered, it was a great time! Big props to Steven for all your work, thanks brother!

Great meeting you guys for sure! And glad to hear everybody made it back OK. It was worth the trip...planning on trekking out next year. 9 hr drive back across KS & 1/3 of CO wasn't so awesome though :bleh: Absolutely ZERO scenery lol! KC bbq was definitely a redeeming factor, OK Joe's & Jack's Stack are both ridiculous. Worth the hype.

By the way, anybody have any more pics of my ride? Just curious. Tyler, those rolling shots are SICK!

I'll have something new on there this week that will be worth showing off too... So pics of the new mod(s) will come later this week as well.

If any of you guys pick up any Bullet Polish products, let me know what ya think!

Time to do laundry hahaha!!

I have some more I need to get off my phone still but here are from my Nikon.I do have pictures from my aquarium and short visit to down town KC on my facebook, send me a PM if you're interested.

During the trip the coolant level raised higher than it ever has twice on Saturday and once on Sunday when turning the A/C on.Blasted the heat and she cooled down. I've been unable to reproduce the temperature raise. Think I'm going to replace my thermostat anyways because I just turned 99,xxx and coolant was exchanged recently.

Saturday on the way downtown I started hearing some woooving sounds from my tires on the highway, figured it's one of two things. Going from 17's to 18's on a lower profile and different highways than I'm used to with construction. When getting into the city I hear terrible squeaking and clank,"oh no my brakes" I thought. Took a look at the right front and from experience I grabbed my tire iron and tightened down all lugs on that wheel. Every other wheel was fine. Problem solved and plan on getting things check overed and aligned this week.

For the meet before Saturday cruise maybe next year we should meet across the street or need to buy liquor first to tell the manger we're your customers so he doesn't make us move. It reminded me of old school gangs having some authority figure tell them to get away from their store.

At the speedway the service was so low. After asking for water about 3 times I went downstairs and got free soda from the casino and brought it back to the table. My chicken sandwhich took so long the manger came over to apologize. Regardless my dinner was free and they forgot to charge for my drink.

































































































Defiantly had fun and think the meet keeps getting better every year.

Super thanks to Steven Bell,Budda, and Jay Wolfe Acura for organizing this. Big thanks to Swoosh for giving me coolant!
