Default Expo 3, it's over.

The event went off without a problem. Only one incident with vehicle damage occured but the vehicle was repaired to trackable (and drivehomeable) condition the sunday morning. No injuries to report or any theft that I know of. Track was nice, weather was a bit chilly but overall very nice. The sponsors really kicked *** with LOTS of donations. Big 's to all of them!

From what I heard, everyone enjoyed themselves.. so we all owe a huge thanks and many many many 's to Trey who donated tons of his free time for his, and your, passion with the ITR.

Until Expo4.. have fun and drive safe guys.

The Expo was truly incredible. Again, we cannot thank Trey, George, the sponsors and many many others that were 'behind the scenes' enough.

to everyone that attended that made it such a great/friendly/safe event.

A very big thanks from me to all of the staff and all of the sponsors for putting on such a great event! I had a GREAT time, even though I don't own an R and I don't know the first thing about driving on a track. I got some cool stuff, took some sweet pics, met some great people, and learned a lot about track driving - I hope to put that knowledge to use some day when I finally do get into HPDEs. I look forward to coming to future events, especially if I happen to pick up an R some day.

Again, thanks so much!

wish i could've been there, my buddy was there with his 97 turbo-r. He said they took a photo from the air of all the type-r's. He said there were 110 total and the pic was going to be in the guiness book of world records.

The event.... is a Total Blast.... (what else can I say?)

My 1st time on Track..(feels good)
Met so many people (wish there's more time to know each one of u)

To Organizer, Sponsors, Instructors, basically everyone..

I can't express how I felt after the EXPO..
it's a mixture of:
1.a little Tired..
2.so Excited everytime my group is called..
3.Scared(a little, esp. everytime the R with Orange wing passed by)
4.Happy to be able to see most H-Techers...
5.Feels Human (since everyone seemed to be driving a Type R)

Basically.. I got home Smiling and a little SunBurned..

To those who missed the EXPO.. hope you'll make it next time.

Edit: I feel like a superman with the R..

Oh well, I left at 10pm 'cuz I had to drive home, and my ticket had already won, as did the two tickets that cal_ripcurl and his wife gave me ;-)

I wound up with a Spoon radiator cap, a Spoon magnetic drain plug set, and a Racing short shifter! ;-)

this was my first expo and it definitly wont be my last, i had a super time even though i didnt get a chance to race my car around the track. trey,george(sorry i dont know everyone ) and everyone that put this together you guys did an awesome job,i think this was the most organized event i been to.im met a lot of cool people despite not knowing alot of people from this forum(im usually in forced induction,but aleph set my priorities straight at the banquet ). id like to also thank the Mugen guys for letting us borrow a few tools to fix a minor engineering flaw . everyone take care till next time.

Default EXPO kicked @$$!

just returned home from the expo.(4hr drive)

i had absolutely the best time.

thanks to trey, all the sponsors, and others involved.

man, do i have alot of footage to post up.

once i get everything organized and uploaded, it will all be posted.(i might even have to start my own thread )

huhu, you guys have to see the clips i made of the Honda-Tech Expo 3 After-Party at the Beaver Falls Holiday-Inn.
and pictures of the unofficial Miss ITR Expo 3 of Beaver Run.(no, not because she served us alcohol at the banquet... )

it was great meeting all of you at the Expo.

stay tuned for the premium footage.

Huge, huge, huge to Trey, George, Zyg, and everyone else who set that up, that was amazing. Without a doubt, the most fun I've ever had. And nice meeting everyone (Les, Jim, Ralph, Bryan, dude with the WRX [Rob?], and thanks to those same ones for letting me borrow a helmet, I was a dumbass for forgetting mine.)
Yet again to Trey and co., you all kick ***.

Bye the way, Victor and crew, you guys just disappeared after you passed the gas station, we never saw you again. Cool rolling with the Florida crowd for a bit, whoever that was.
