went to nopi. started on the tour. ended up there at the nopi nats. car we brought, which is my gf's car, was in the hankook booth. i tried to introduce myself, carbongs, in alabama at banana joes but you were a bit cocky. not cool at all. i was the asian guy with the mowhawk slicked back. props to mark though, thanks for stoppin by the hankook booth and showing some love to my girl and gettin a few pics of the car. also wanna thanks to ron and mark for the invitation of being an honary member of your team at the show. thank you both for the warm welcome!

gotparts, sorry that I came across as cocky bro. not intentional at all. it was just a really long day for me. had a final that night before arriving at banana joes and scratched the heck out of my rear bumper getting into that parrg lot. and anyoe who really knows me knows I hate e club scene. it just isn't me. I just wanted to sleep lol. plus I was a bit irritated that when I got outside there were girls on my carbon hood. they had left some minute scratches. just bad timing bro. I hope to redeem myself. never good to be thought of as cocky. cwas looking great man. I got several pics of it as well and look for it on the writeup.
again-sorry bro...

thanks gs300rich. the team was really excited. many of us have not recovered from the yelling and screaming of celebration.

again gotparts, so sorry. I now remember talking to you. good to finally be able to put a screen name to a face. I still can't get over that I came across as cocky. I guess we all have bad days. anywho, your girl's ride is HOT HOT HOT!!! many of the team members were awed by the cleanliness and execution of the mods on the car.
