Default 2-24-07 Joker Bash Car Show write up and pics

Well, the day started off to a slow start but the "Asian Mafia" as we like to call ourselves in the SELOC chapter eventually got together and met at Dave & Buster’s of Gwinnett before our arrival at the Joker Bash 07’ at Hooter’s of Canton. The intention was to roll in 3 deep. Patrick (Matrix), Shin (IS300), and myself (GS300). At D&B was supposedly a bike photo shoot. Let’s just say we soon found ourselves doing a photo shoot. Bing (GSX-R 750) and Omar (GSX-R 600) arrived shortly after we did in true tribal fashion. These are a few shots we took before we were informed of the new location for the shoot.








We rode over to the other side of the parking lot to get Bing and Omar squared away with the models. Wow, I couldn’t even take pics because of some of the “positions” that were entailed during their shoot. I’ll leave it up to your imagination to figure out what that means. These guys still have reputations to uphold. So, during that process we, being the three that drove cars, piled into the IS300 and made our way to the closest fine dining restaurant, McDonald’s!!! lol. On the way there we saw a HONDI! Oh yes you heard me right! A HONDI. “What exactly is a HONDI?” you might ask. Well, a HONDI is a late 90’s Civic with an Audi emblem on the grille! Such a pity that I left the camera in my car during this food drive. On the way back we nearly got hit by an Audi who was reversing into onward traffic. Wow! Just Wow!

Well, after chomping down on the goods we got back in our cars and bikes and took the hour long drive up to Canton’s Hooter’s to attend the show! Here are my pics from the event. I believe that there were only two classes. Show Import and Show Domestic. From what the other members tell me I took home 1st place Import! YES!!! I had to leave early due to a fine date with my special lady! Bing, Shin, and Patrick were all team players and troopers since they stayed behind and made sure that all was taken care of. Thanks Guys! I owe you one! (An XL-Bowl of Pho)!!! Until next time enjoy the following pics.

Thanks again to all of those who came out to represent us at the show!
1. Bing-Veritek
2. Patrick-HappyHooder
3. Shin-Carbon_IS
4. Mike-1SickLex
5. DSouth (a member here on clublexus) who almost hit my car can't remember his name to save my life, sorry bro!

and me-Carbon_GS (well, I'm not thanking myself but you get the picture)
