I have 200 pics I'm currently uploading...I had a good time but got severely sunburned, I'm cursed with fair skin

met some customers and didn't find the others next year all have a booth setup and maybe have a drawing for a free tune, t-shirt, stickers etc...a few people from the MOD committee contacted me about a week prior to the meet asking me if I wanted to do a booth but it was such short notice and I was ill prepared. I'd rather do nothing than do it poorly so I figured I'd just get a feel for it this year.

I had a nice conversation over lunch with Dick Rinehimer which is the SR. Vice President over Operations and Quality Control...very pleasant fella to talk to if you get the chance to meet him

^gotta agree with you. how many times have we seen this happen. it is really hard to disect what a person really wants to impart by simply reading his posts. try not to be overly sensitive. again he is entitled to his opinions as you guys are but come on no need to bash the guy here over and over and over and .........

all that matters is if you guys really had fun and if you did then it was well worth it then if it was not like kins then sorry for him. he is the one who wasted his time and money anyways.

oh and btw if you know who won those 16" wheels pls let me know as i am interested in buying them.

too funny, oh well we'll be back next year for MOD with a booth I'm pretty sure so I'll be much easier to find.

I'm re-uploading my pics, the photo album didn't work last time for some reason.

Kins, I am never going to MOD again all because of YOU! Stupid Evo driver.


Seriously people? He didn't like it, why is everyone so butt hurt over his experience. I went last year and it was boring as hell, I wont drive down there again. The tour is lame, they don't show you anything that is actually interesting to see. The only thing decent is some of the free **** they give away. The funny thing is,last year I got an OZ wing that was painted and ready to install. I couldn't sell it for 20 bucks. Its no wonder they were giving away all that junk.

Flame suit off, who's got pics?

I do wish they had some sort of autox event or something to do with the cars, that would be fun.

Chris - Nice meeting you, your family and Turbo. I look forward to working closely with you as I start on my tune. I emailed you some EGR CEL Fix threads. I hope to have the car running in a week. I will push the map you sent me for the low trims and send it back sooner as it can still run sitting on stands....ha ha
