Joe, I have just recieved a confirmation email. We should arrive sometime between 9am-10am. Since we are registered in the show, it is required that we stay until after the awards ceremony. It said something about choosing Group A or Group B upon entrance, but idk what that means. I will try to arrive there at 8am, would you like to meet up first so that we can park by each other? I'm not sure if there is even going to be a class for us anymore. From the looks of it, there are only 2 Celicas making an appearance (you and I). Alone, we no longer meet the 5 car requirement for a Toyota Class. Hopefully other Toyotas have entered (hopefully crappy ones too so we can win something). But I hope we have fun. I'm somewhat excited for it, but I'm not really jumping for joy. As if I ever do. what happened to marco? i'm guessing his car won't be done in time. anywho, i got my email too. i'm in group b. but yeah, it says we should arrive together if we wanna park together. so we should meet up before. what freeway will you be exiting? -------------------- ss-iii splitters and 404 skirts are on. which means i need to update my sig. |

Alright Joe, looks as though Marco and I will be meeting at your house in the morning and then crusing to the meet from there.
Christina, you are the only member on the attending only list. I think it would be most convenient for you to find us at the meet later on. Reason being is because Marco, Joe and I will be entering the show at 8am-9am. The show does not start until 11am, and we will have to stay there until the awards ceremony is over (the show ends at 6pm) so we will be stuck there for ass long time. But if you would really like to enter in the morning with us, then that's no problem at all. You can go to the spectator parking lot that they mentioned and then we can pick you up so that you can enter the show early with us. I know I know, that would mean you would have to leave Alexi unattended. I wouldn't want him to feel left out, especially because he just left me a myspace comment. But it's up to you if you'd like to wake up early or sleep in. (I personally would choose to sleep in because I am a fan of sleep). Wow that was a long paragraph. Everybody meet there! I didn't realize the show was so long. Ugh, I hope the awards ceremony is about halfway through the meet because I really don't want to walk around in the sun for 10+ hours.. It's like I'm at work!

I'll probably get there around 10 or 11, since my brother said spectator parking sucks ass at events there. we'll have to leave early though, because Allu's favorite band is doing a meet-and-greet in Lakewood at 3 |

so what time you guys gonna be at my place? my email says i'm in group b and have to come in between 9-10. you think they'd let me in before then? Sure they will. Just roll in with Marco and I. We are both part of group A, so if they have a problem, then I will kick their butts ok? As long as we roll in together, it's fine. Just remember to print your email thing out and bring it with you. Oh and we should be at your house around 8am. "should be". You can go to the spectator parking lot that they mentioned and then we can pick you up so that you can enter the show early with us. I know I know, that would mean you would have to leave Alexi unattended. I wouldn't want him to feel left out, especially because he just left me a myspace comment.

I've never been to a meet here, so I am not sure how the spectator parking is, but I will take your brother's word for it and believe that it sucks ass. It can't be as bad as the parking for Chinatown Showoff though... I will have to see and compare the 2. -------------------- |

Dude, you have nothing to worry about. Marco and I ran out of time and were not able to finish up our cars on time. My paint still looks like poop, and I still have electrical tape on the side of my car. I wish I could have gotten everything finished, but I guess there's always next week. I would have gotten my Celica painted by now, but I haven't decided on the color for sure yet. -------------------- |

THE 411 on STREET MACHINE BATTLE:
First off I want to deeply thank everyone who came out in the hot weather. There were LOTS of very nice cars--- A++ Nice rides everyone! Now secondly to let you all know i was DEEPLY DISAPOINTED in the organization and judging at the show, and with the lack of gratitude (they didn’t even acknowledge my support when they were saying their “thanks”). Thirdly: Keep in Mind I was A CO-HOST; I did not make a dime off of this show nor would I want to. I’m just in it for meeting great people and seeing some nice cars. However, I was frustrated at how things were looking at the show; it wasn’t horrible, but it wasn’t good either. The entertainment was on a big low which ticked me off because I gave them dj contacts and supposedly there was going to be a lot of happenings. so I’m in the same boat as all of you. Congrats on the wins Also, thanks for supporting me and street machine battle. NOW I WILL HOST MY OWN SHOW NO CO-HOST BS NO BS AT ALL AND ANYONE WHO WAS AT THIS SHOW WILL GET IN WITH A HUGE DISCOUNT TO SHOW IM SORRY SO STAY TUNED AND KEEP POSTED THANKS EVERYONE |

i wonder if maskedman is feeling this yet... Yes, I felt it when I woke up this morning. On top of my neck already hurting, this is like the extra kick while I'm down . Hope you had fun Joe and Marco, It was sure a long wait in the sun. My car should be painted in the next few weeks so If we can squeeze just 1 more show/meet in, then that would be great. I'm going to talk to my paint guy tomorrow and if the total comes out to <$2500 to fix the rear damage and to paint my car in Lexus IG0 Smokey Granite Mica, then I will for sure go for it and then also install the TRD rear extentions. If it costs over $2500, I will either wait, or I will get it painted in good old Toyota 202 black once again . -------------------- |

no... you can't just settle for any color. you gotta get the dark charcoal grey that everyone's getting... including me. and don't forget the hardtop targa conversion.

Oh yeah! Thanks blue for the Co-Hosting, we don't hold anything against you. Did you atleast see us or our cars at the meet? The meet wasn't bad at all, just a little hot and long with nothing to do, so it kind of felt like jail . And we didn't win anything which made my Celica sad .
On the other hand, Marco, your hood looks very reflective in that picture . All in all it wasn't a bad day. It could have been better if the restaurant had better chicken strips too . OH! And they need to give away more free stuff and have better looking models. Although, some models weren't bad looking and I did see some topless action going on, I would still like to suggest better models . -------------------- |
