Hey guys, it was really nice meeting all of you today, next time I'll bring the Bullitt. I am kinda glad I didn't drive though because I got a few great shots that I wouldn't have been able to shoot if I was driving.

Everyone who came today and took pics, throw them up in here so we don't have a billion threads going.

Enjoy!!

Can everyone see Jonbeast in the left lane slowing down and blocking traffic so rolla49 could take pictures.. so funny to watch.. gave everyone a big :thefinger:

Wish I lived closer and could have come!!

This was such a great time...It was a little hot, as you can see my huge sweat stain on the back of my shirt in STPprorolla's shots ha ha. I should of worn shorts but ohwell. N8legarda and I might get something similar set up in Maryland if anyone is interested and maybe we can do it in the fall. We have a lot of back country driving roads over here, great scenery and such, but no mountains. Such a nice view up there it was gorgeous. Jonbeast, you my friend are crazy, once we turned around and went back thru the Nest you were bookin, I was following but just couldnt help to think "this could get really bad", there is no room for error on that road. All in all it was a blast

AWESOME PICS!!!

I'm super happy I got to meet everyone, all of you are very cool people.

The shots are SWEET! I feel bad for driving like an asshat so shifty couldn't get shots that weren't blurry lol...

Jon, thanks very much for the mirrors, one of mine are scratched so the set you gave me will likely be painted or something... And we are DEFINITELY doing another one of these once it gets a bit colder, I got burned to a crisp with the top down.

It was funny that Vlad made the ENTIRE cruise on my 17" baller status donut.

I am also very happy that you guys liked my cruise, even if the actual "best part" of it is only like 1/2 mile long haha.

Hey man it was the adventure getting to the Hawks Nest that was great. That half a mile stretch on the mountain was a amazing, but having all of us cruise through the small towns and the country side was such a great experience...all we did was piss people off and turn heads ha ha. LOL I cant believe Vlad made it the whole way through with no problems. It was hillarious when I was driving behind u and shifty, poor guy, every time he got up to take a shot you would dive into a corner and I could just see his knuckles turn white grasping that camera for dear life. I have a feeling that if he thought the camera would fall he would go with it lol. Did anyone take any video?

CompOrangeSN95 · Aug 9, 2010

this needs to happen again SOOOOON! Next time I won't be at a family reunion haha awesome pictures guys :thumbsup:

Shifty Powers · Aug 9, 2010

LOL it was deffinately a great time.. was a new experiance facing backwards in a vert and all the sudden hitting a turn! But all in all it wasnt too bad the way i had myself planted in the seat. And Scoobie, you werent driving like an asshat man. You could have pushed harder,but i wouldnt of been taking pics if you did. Plus we had an actual asshat in front of us!

It was a great time meeting everyone for sure. And cant wait to do it again. I think it might only be fair to the MD guys we go down there at least once.

Jon, 335s thats sick! You might wanna roll the fenders first dude! and get new lifters(might as well cam it at that point and PI it) hahaha..

And my car is destroyed(body wise anyways), i dont have the money to get it back on the road in time. Ill be lucky if i get it done by next year

and you guys got sunburnt? I didnt get any sunburn at all... And the next 5 weekends are crazy and some ones i dont really wanna miss so i dunno if ima get outa work. Got AMA,ARCA, Rally America(ken block and travis pastrana, along with dave mirra), then a national CCS AMRA event, and A karting event where gokarts hit 150+ mph lol.. crazy stuff

greenscobie86 · Aug 9, 2010

YEA! keep the pics coming! I think you jumped out faster than a speeding bullet to take those shots lol... I don't think you realized that you were on the ledge of 300ft sheer drop as you were snapping those pics hahaha...

Plenty of cameras around and I think CW Cobra had an HD video cam so lets start posting these pics up folks

Oh and all the cars were sweet, it was very nice to finally see them in person, and to of course be able to put a face with a screen-name/car as well.
