    Well,
    thanks to all who showed up and made i tinto what I would call a success.. I apologise if not everything was gotten too as far as installs.. it kinda got crazy...

    I was a little bummed I never got to spend more time meeting people but I was running around like a blue arsed fly all night...

    Didnt even get to take many pics... I think it was Dynapar's lovely girl who used the video camera for me... unfortunately she clicked photos with it.. so I am not sure if there is even any video footage... really bummed about not getting any of FUJI breaking his car doing donuts.... Thanks all the same for just taking the camera when I walked up and handed it to you without explaining it or anything.... he he

    Did anyone get any footage of that?? if so email it into my inbox or tell me how to get a copy...

    Wow I feel way better now I got home and tooka 20min hot shower... first thing of the night I drop the gear oil out of a transmission and somehow it all hits me inthe side of the head... dang it.. gear oil stinks and it was all through my hair.... I am really tired and stiff from being in the heat of the shop for 16.5 hrs today... er yesterday technically...

    You guys have some sweet rides... next MOD I do is that smoking the headlights look.. man that is da bom...

    so anyhoooos I am gonna go to bed shortly.. got to haves me a coffee to wind down...

    Hope to make a trip to Firestone soon in the future...

    By the way Fong.. sorry for the crap I gave you for your Les mobile online I take it all back.. it is pretty sweet looking ride... I would have one but my wife hates wagons and she has pretty good taste.. ha ha ha but yeah she dont like wagons..

    Nathan - THANK YOU for hosting a kickass meet. Your hard work getting everything flowing made the evening a huge success, in my estimation. Your willingness to jump in and help everyone out was above and beyond as well... sorry you had to work so much but I also understand why.
    Next time could you turn on the external a/c please? :p
    Cheers mate.

    No hard feelings, Nate. I was out to have a good time, and I did. Really! :D OPUS visit wasn't too bad either! ;)

    I seem to be missing my Craftsman 3/8" socket wrench with a 3" extension at the install day. I looked everywhere. It was last seen on the floor of one of the stalls when Tbone was done with it. If anyone has it or finds it in their car, please return it to me. OR ELSE!!! :evil:

    Awesome doughnuts Fong :)
    It was great! I hope everyone got as much done if not all done on installs. This was actually a GREAT turnout. There were some ups and downs with installs like things breaking, but I hope that those things get fixed soon.

    Now I just need to swap back the rear diff.

    Nathan,

    Thank you for putting this together. Today was totally awesome. Hopefully I'll be able to build up next time instead of tear down. My old exhaust sounds totally awesome on Paul's(lilred) car and the leak issue got resolved so I think today went pretty well.

    Thanks again!

    THANK YOU!!!!!

    awesome turnout, I've never seen that many subarus in one place!

    btw....that was MY girl you handed the camera too...and I guess she never figured out how to take video...but in all reality, there wasn't much to take video of, I got a few good exhaust vids, people backing out of stalls and such. AND I took video of Fuji's donut from the roof of my car, and it looks AWESOME!!! (justin...pm me your email, and I'll send it from the gf's high-speed tomorrow)


    did I mention....THANKS!!! had an awesome time...I think I came out with more food than I started, but I was virtually the last one to leave when I grabbed the cooler, so it's goin campin with me tomorrow!!!!

    Today was AWSOME! from what i have heard in the past this meet had probably 20x the turnout. Thanks again to Nathan for allowing us the use of your shop and you priceless skills.

    as chux stated previously it wasnt my girl with the vid camera. however i did get three vids tonight. one of petes car running w/ just a stock midpipe, another of some fuji-donuts (sorry to say he started before i could hit record), and one more from the ring. i got t-bone, pete, and justin cruising down the striaght.

    granted i did not get everything i wanted done, i got my pipe bent; however i didnt get aligned. which is no big deal since i got tons of cool pictures of scoobies. i look forward to another meet like this!

    on a different note i am missing one (1) needle nose pliers, they have red handles which say hucky on them and have blackish pincery things.

    I found the ratchet hiding in my toolbox. I think when fuji gave me my tools back I didn't realize fong's ratchet was in that pile too. I don't have his extension though, so that's still out there somewhere.

    Sorry about that Fong, I'll get it back to you. I hope your extension turns up.

    What a great evening. I had fun maning the grill, lending a hand where needed, and lending tools when required. I don't think my impact wrench has seen so much action in one night! :lol:

    Thanks for hosting this event and I hope it's success will mean more in the future!

    I had a great time hanging out with everyone, but next time could we all get in a circle and introduce ourselves. I dont know have the people in the club anymore. LOL


    I want to thank everyone for coming, the cook was very sexy, the food was delicious, and the owner was supreme. Nate you looked like you were running a marathone! Looks like we have a great club with lots of experiences and team work.

    Thanks,

    You people are pussies... anyone think you grew up in a snowy area...

    where I am from it is always that hot 95% of the year... except dry... ha ha ha

    And I spent over 16 hrs in it yesterday... I slept for like 3 hrs solid this afternoon... wife had to make me wake up.. threw my boy on the bed and he just giggles and crawls over you so you wake up...

    we shall do another one day but may not be this year... maybe in January... then it may only be -95F and everyone can do donuts afterwards.. he he he

    Well it looks like I get honors for posting the latest, and staying the shortest amount of time, so much stuff I would've liked to see there too... Sounds like I missed a pretty good night.

    Big thanks to Nathan for hosting this, that was way cool :D
