SUNNY! You had a flame come out of the exhaust that went over your WING! I wish I had a camera.

That really sucks. At least that annoying SRT4 got smoked.

I had NO IDEA what was going on....thank God you guys had some tools. I was like WTF, then I called Sarah.

Sarah, I thought that guy in the Eclipse was going to hit you like a dozen times..... Although I almost hit you on lower Wacker!

ALL I am saying is we better have meets like this in the summer!

Very nice to roll out with 15-20 Evos on the freeway. Once again I was the only one representing the LY Evos. I think the coolest part is seeing Evos at all angles. Zooming up in the rearview and then flying ahead. Now I know what other people see when they are looking at me!

Hector, you were a couple carlengths ahead when everybody pulled over to the left. I was in the R lane and I had to go to the next exit and circle around to see what happened. I left while the repairs were still in progress. Got some gas and then I saw a Minuteman on the scene when I passed on my way home. Was he any help or did he just make everybody leave?

I really like that repair picture now that I can see it on my computer. I used the night setting to capture all available light. I set the camera on the center median and I used the self timer so I could keep the camera still. You can do the same with your camera if you know how to use it!

Really, now this i wouldve loved to see ..... I saw a couple of flames comming out of Leo's exhaust too. The guys in the srt4 were pretty cool, but i just had to mess around with them on the highway. Yea i guess the t-bolt clamps couldnt hold my ic pipes on when i went all out....i managed to get the car home safely. Meet was great....Maybe we should have a meet like this every week

I am really pissed off at my parents for not letting me go to the meet. They said it was too far, as Sunny knows. I could've made it too with my evo but nooooooooo you can't go Syed, it's too far!! Yea, so now the next meet I will be there and me and a friend (Derek....Black STI) are going to the Evo vs. Sti shootout in Ohio. PS. Sarah will make me feel horrible the next time I talk to her because I didn't go to the meet!
