Default a day at buttonwillow with nwp members

In tribute to Juan. It was a gorgeous day with perfect weather , even when it was raining five hours before.
FF squad . if you don't know you better take a history lesson.
Just smashing in our machines on this memorial day weekend.

my hands hurt from fighting the steering wheel so much through riverside , my back hurts from being worthless. lol

I would say this was the best event I have personally been to , we had a great group of people , for all the new people I met , it was great to finally put a face to a handle.
Jared , you came through for me man and I really appreciate that. Sorry for being such a moocher. =D
FF squad heads . Always great to be around you guys , the most laid back down to earth people you can ever meet.
Lee , your helmet visor along with the way your car looks is ****in insane.
Jason , thanks for all the help with the video information and setting things up!
Sean and Tomny , thanks for busting out the brakes, and tommy " muscle man " em1 , you're the man.
Damien , you hooked me up with the go pro and I am really thankful for that. thanks again man ! it was nice meeting you , laguna seca sounds game.
T , you came through hard with the food and drinks and it was pretty bombin. Thanks again !
Ryan , good to see you again ! I want to steal your del sol. =D
Greg , always good to see you again and catch up.
Golseth , you have been bitten by the bug. There is no turning back now! ahahaha
good talking to you bro!
Kyle , you always come through ! thanks for the coverage on everyone's cars and handling the camera work!

when I was driving up at 3am last night and the rain started near buttonwillow , I seriously thought to myself " we are going out here in tribute for juan and it's going to be a gloomy and wet day ". Instead the skies were blue and the clouds almost looked surreal , as if they were perfectly painted onto a blue canvas , it turned out to be a beautiful day in honor of a great person..


enjoy the pics

It's been back for weeks... at least. LOL.

You probably just have the old link bookmarked like I did.

Nice shots Reza. You and Jason's cars are looking sick.

Interesting to see none of these cars have superJdMpartsY000 aero parts or useless crap on them.

Great to see people actually driving out there.

mine has aero . I actually had to throw a few self tapping screws into the bottom because a rivet backed out. due to the vtecdownforcesteez. A splitter up front will reduce the pressure the canards take in. Last event I ran a 2:09 with the same tires , a little more tread last time. first time out at this event on the same tires but with the canards , 2:07.

I have no problem with people putting them on and USE them....you must be misinterpreting my post.

I look down on those who pride themselves on putting those "race" parts on and have no idea what a ****ing apex is which is sadly over 90% of the users on this site.

i am having problems converting my files, since they are in the .mov format and i am on a PC. also, the camera that was mounted on my trunk fell off, and when it was recovered, the memory card was missing.

once again, good times reza, can't wait til the next one. July 31/August 1?
