Hey thanks guys 
. I have always enjoyed this meet. But for the first time I got to enjoy my friends. I was able to walk around and meet some new faces . I wanna say thank you to each and everyone of you, from the members that have attended the 1st to 4th and new attendees that made long long drives down. VK meet is about CLFL and is for CLFL members and their families. In past events I did go beyond our forum to reach out to a larger audience SF, MY IS and even local shops. I did neither this year.. So for those who were wondering and concerned , there's no need to be . The members / people whom attended, are exactly the one I wanted there. Cor members, their friends and family Thanks again everyone, we'll keep having them as long as you keep attended them

Thanks everyone it's means a lot . I too look forward to this meet every year. It's meant to bring us together and unified our community. We here in south Florida and Florida members thru out , came together to form what we call CLFL. Now it seems in our own community that vendors are creating Teams 
. It's all good and all. But when team members or leaders take things to personal, it will eventually cause a rift in our community. By no means am I a saint or a pliiaier of the community. I have my scares. But never have I said nor rejected any members because of which model Lexus they drive or worst of all which wheels they buy. . 
. ..
As for the turnout which was good, and not as big as last years. There is no disputing that. I believe the main reason for this slight decrease was, there was no free food or drinks .

Sadly I had to catch a flight that Saturday as I would have been at the event and we are spread all over due to travel, the World Tour Asia etc. Even if we cannot attend, please contact me and we will be happy to support the event.
Having thrown Lexus meets for over 10 years I know how much time, energy and effort it takes to throw and organize free meets and we have to commend all the organizers and we also have to commend attendees who make the effort to come.
I am always available to talk too and I am quite easy to find as I am always at a meet or event so please PM me, email me, text me or chat in person.
Keep up the great work.

Speaking of SC's Lex where did all the members disappear to. Usually it's at least 20 or more SCs at the shows at almost every in the past 5 years I've been around and this show I think maybe 10 if that much and when we got to the meet at 12 by 2:00 pretty much all of them were gone!!

Well im the one who filmed and edited the video and i can understand a little bit of why your upset. Its obvious you guys have a passion and love for these cars and i gotta be honest i really don't know much about Lexus or this forum.. im more a chevy guy but that's why i joined recently to learn more about this community. It wasn't intentional to leave the SC's out i do remember seeing a decent row of them all the way to the right. I did have a couple shots specifically of a white one with gold rims but what it comes down to is the work flow and hours that go into videos like this i really do my best to flow with the music and have it make sense in a timeline manner i could of sworn the white SC was in there but again making videos especially covering a car show by myself and constantly moving around and moving clips in post production you do forget stuff...especially since i didn't know how important/influential these SC's are to this forum. SO don't take it personal it wasn't on purpose i now know not to forget the SC's hope you guys still enjoy the video and future videos to come.
