Default To all of the EXPO "NO SHOWS"............

Yup, I got back Tuesday eve, a little later than planned but Vegas and Hoover Dam were "must stops".

Esteban- your pops and mum can grill like a ****!! I really enjoyed it.

Chris- Thank you sir for all the tools,jacks,etc......sorry I didn't have room for the tyres

Kelly- you tall **** white boy, I will never forget all you did, Thanks for the sleeping area and everything else..........I owe you $5!

Ross,Fais, Yosh, anyone else I missed- thanks for all the hard work.

Jeff S.- for the shade and places to put my junk, thanks.

Wes- I hope to talk to you soon, when ever you get back. Car looks nice and your damn fast! Hope us east coaster didn't scare you too much.

Everyone else who's name I forgot- I hope to catch you next year......

The expo subject has been beat to death so I'll let it rest, but in closing, Everyone was as nice as I could ever imagine, the trip out was well worth it...........


2560 miles one way, 35ish hours...........Who needs a plane?

Jack,

I was wondering when you were gonna get back! Dont sweat the tires.

You dont have to thank me for the tools and such, like i said, I brought it for that reason, and we were there to share....that is what the EXPO was about.

I am real glad I met you...

Now get some rest!

I talked to Wes (aka White Dragon) today for an hour or so about the EXPO. Sounds like I missed some real fun. Once again, I really apologize. I would MUCH rather have gone than sitting here in Omaha unemployed...job hunting. BELIEVE ME.

It is very good to hear that the EXPO was a success. I will *MOST DEFINATELY* attend an EXPO #2 if there is one. I promise.

My sentiments exactly!
Though I stopped a few times on the way back (i.e., lunch at the Rio Grill in Carmel).

Hey guys, I got back Tuesday night also, but have been really busy with work and getting ready to go racing AGAIN. Man, this stuff is wearing me out!

Many, many, many, many thanks goes to the event organizers: Ross, Yoshi, Faisal, Kelly, etc. You guys did a good job!!!

Kelly - Thanks for giving me a place to crash Thursday night, and a place to wash my car and get cleaned up.

Jack and Doug - You guys are very kewl and you crack me up. It was fun hangin withcha and I learned a lot from riding with you Jack. Sorry I couldn't make it to LV. Thanks for the compliment. Damn, for a skinny dude, you can sure eat a lot! I am looking forward to seeing the both of you at the next Expo!

Lanceh and Cheese - It was nice to finally meet you guys.

Ross - Thanks for organizing the canyon runs, that was one helluv an experience - we don't have those kind of roads here in Nebraska

Ed - Damn you are crazy...

Chris - Thanks for letting me use your jack and funnel. I think I had your jack more than you did

Esteban - It was nice talking with you, it was a true pleasure. Your car is absolutely beautiful and it is set up very nice. Thanks for the ride on track. Also, tell your parents that the food was awesome. In fact, I am craving it now If you come to the next Expo, your car may have a twin... Take care of that beauty.

Andrew - I think my stomach has recovered finally after riding with you, hehe You are definately very fast, the car handles beautifully and it was nice to finally meet you. You need to bring that badass car of yours to Gingerman next year. Thanks for the advice on the tires, they work out great.

Paul - Sorry about your car over-heating, I guess that is one of the downfalls of having that much power at your disposal. I was really looking forward to riding in the JUNmobile. It was nice to finally meet you. Good luck with getting that problem solved.

Trey - I am going to #$%^#$#$ #$%$%#$% @$^ #%%@%#$. Hehe... just messin with ya. I'll get her cleaned up one of these days. Jeff offered to help out. I think you need to post that pic here... It was nice talking with you about all of the different things.

RBoosted - I didn't get to talk to you much, but the car looks good. I was the white car behind the two JUN cars during our little bumper to bumper racing. If I ever get it converted to digital, I will post it. It is pretty fun to watch.

Gary - It was nice to meet you finally. Tell you pops thanks for shooting so many pics! We are very lucky to have had the both of you!
To the others that I met, it was a true pleasure, and I hope to see you all at the next EXPO!

So to explian what Wes is talking about here is my only off course excursion. Wes being the neatest person I have ever met was not terribly thrilled with the latest interior treatment I showed him ;-)






Here we are where I managed to spend $6 on vacuuming $0.50 at a time.




Really sorry Wes. Jeff will help me out! and I hope the Combine-R gets fixed soon!

Hey Albino Dragon, that isn't funny

There are actually four:

YD - Todd
WD - Wes
Albino Dragon - Nate
Black Dragon - Jeff

Jeff doesn't post much.

And I thought that my car was dirty after my little excursion into the dirt...it took me forever to clean the interior, and I'm still finding places that dirt unded up in.

Ed - Damn you are crazy...
Whatever do you mean?
Please also consider that I STILL have all of the original bodywork on the car (including the front lip).
Though that Mugen body kit is really looking good and the hood venting will help cool the turbo plumbing.

Can't wait till next time. ed
