I am truly sorry about not attending the event I feel *somewhat* responsible for happening in the first place.

To make a long story short...I got screwed over by my friend (aka GTSnut). I got a house and he was supposed to move in. My other roommate bailed a month early to buy a house...so I offered my other friend to move in early. He ended up ditching me and then basically ruined our friendship with that and some other things...well this all happened at the same time I financed my engine swap for the Civic...also the same time the bar (my part time job) CUT my hours.

Basically...I was fvcked...I've been struggling the last 3 months and I just got a new roommate at my house. I got hail damage on my Civic and I have a little extra $$ for that too, but still not enough to get me there and back. I have to get the Civic fixed because I have a loan against the titles. I'm using the extra $$ I do have to buy an alarm and tires for my ITR. My RE10's are done for.

I said I would just ride with White Dragon, but he ended up bailing this past week due to work reasons (new job = boss giving his trouble for needing time off).

Everything combined...financial reasons AND the lack of support for the EXPO has affected me negatively.

I feel bad that White Dragon and I got the ball rolling, but now won't be attending. This is unlike me. I'm not a shady or flaky person. I've met a number of people from the board here in person already. Hopefully I can still meet more of you in the future.

Please accept my apology. I hope you all understand.
