well.. here they are, finally I got to editing and naming all of the pics.. My GF took some with a disposable camera of me autox'ing and some of the mugen car, I still have to scan those.. ANYWAY:

The expo was a BLAST.. I wasn't expecting it to be so well coordinated or as fun as it turned out to be. I'm really glad I threw out all of the second doubts I had about going and commited to the 14 hours of driving (altogether).. I met alot of people but I wish there was more time because I simply didn't get to say hi to everyone I wanted to..

Thanks Christian for the helmet (hope cyl #3 is getting better), thanks Rob for letting me park next to you, introducing me to the R speed crew, and for busting me out of jail/court.. well almost (evil... very evil cop)... you da man!!!, Thanks TREY for organizing the whole shabang, thanks Cobalt for the $25 gift certificate, thanks Mike (black type R, mugen wing, 5pt harness that I didn't figure out how to plug in until we were out on the track) for letting me ride in your LOUD R during the last Advanced run, thanks Budman for ditching me haha, thanks Edwin for hitting on my girl just kidding, but biggest thanks of all is to all of the organizers and the sponsors that contributed prizes.. the banquet/raffle was crazy.

Also thank you to EagleR's mother for coming out and making that speach during the banquet. Her words really touched me and I think it was great she was able to make it out there.

WHERE ARE THE POTATOES?

here are the pics... if your car is in these and you don't want it to be, let me know.. I think i've edited out all of the visible plates in every pic.

you might have noticed some kid by the track with a tripod as you were starting to line up.. yep that was me.. here you go.. in sequence:

Great pics! I wish I went but maybe next year. What did Rob get stopped for? He needs to come in and explain the story. I know that picture though, a cop with a PY ITR pulled over.

 

Nice Pics Alex. I forgot to ask where you were from&gt;

How did your suspension setup (koni yellow/ H&R OE) fare on the track?

Frosty who is getting owned by school work and has been in the library for the past week

Unfortunately, I didn't drive my car on the track.. it would just be an obstacle for everyone anyway!!

For AUTO-X however, the setup felt really good.. although I have nothing to compare it to, I had the rears on full firm and the fronts on 1 and 1/4, and the car felt pretty neutral to me. I gotta scan those pics asap to show ya.

Cool thanks!
