Thanks again guys for all the support.
Believe me when I say that these meets won't happen without a lot of volunteers supporting me. Even a small meet like this does take a lot more effort than people think.
Just to give props once again, let me not miss anyone this time, and in no particular order:
AL7EZZA
Teeman
xxxAlwayspeedinxxx
redgs4
Solo
lightwave76
flipside909
lex400sc
If any of these guys were not helping, I guarantee one aspect or another would not have been covered and I know that ALL of them affected your meet experience one way or another.
I'm open to suggestions for the next meet coming up on July 23. That will include a free lunch & more raffle prizes.
It is tentatively scheduled to run from 11am to 4pm. There's still room after for cruising or another activity afterwards, plus dinner for those who just can't have enough !
Suggestions?

Here are 5 pics I posted in my gallery:

A special thanks to Rominl and Flipside for directions to locales.
Another special thanks to Lightwave76 for talking to me so I could stay awake on my drive home.
And thanks to Solo for the cool PINK sticker to keep forever......
**On a side note, I have to post this because I am still stinging from rejection!!!!!!
I stayed at Hotel Vitale in SF. I see that asian actor, JOHN CHO, from "American Pie", "Better Luck Tomorrow", and "Harold and Kumar Go To White Castle". I see him checking in, but I froze up and don't say anything. Then I see him again later that night, but I still freeze up. So I'm thinking to myself I have to tell him I'm a fan of his work and ask to take a photo. So the next day I see him a third time and this time I say "Excuse me....aren't you that guy in Harold and Kumar?". The guy looks over at me, but keeps walking and says "Maybe I am and maybe I'm not!". .....hahaha I wasn't in his face nor was I following him, at first I was polite, but geeze, without fans a celebrity is nothing. Here's the best part: I see him a fourth time and he sees me, but I totally ignored him. What a jerk. **
Now that I vented, I love the group photo of all of us with our cars!

Elizabeth,
Man, that is a total bummer that John Cho dissed you. And he seemed like a cool dude on screen. He should be more appreciative of his fans, esp. since there are hardly any asians on tv or the big screen. Since there aren't that many roles for asians, he should be lucky he's had some fairly decent roles (not stereotypical ones).

...at least, that's the vibe I got from him. Maybe he was just embarrassed that you associated him with the "Harold and Kumar" movie?

Thanks for the correction on his name. Not to jack this thread, but I've seen him at my local Baja Fresh and I usually just leave celebrities alone. Harold and Kumar was a kick *** movie, I'd be happy to be recognized for that! In any case I've been posting my experience all over the internet 'cos I'm still seething at being dissed! Hell hath no fury......LOL.

hrm... looks like liz was one of the many people i didn't get to meet. with all these others talkin bout her, got me curious. 
anyways, was a great meet., learned some stuff from the seminar and quite a lot about my car on the rack from Kevin. My dad was impressed by the work they offer and in some of the portions of the seminar got him remembering the old days when he used to do this. Hopefully, i'll be able to have my rims on by the next meet.
