I was the only SC there at Zens. Catch up with everyone tomorrow. They were extremely sick looking imports there. Thousands among thousands spent on some of these cars. Unbelievable motor and trans builds. The owner had a pretty good turn out and he is a very nice person. We all thanked him for allowing CL members to come and hang out.
hey thanks for coming out! wish there was a better Lexus turnout though. and there was one other SC that came out. you might have missed him, its a 1jz-gte gt35r that we did. he should be meeting us up in the morning for the roll down to IA.

Thanks to Dan/Zen, Bing, Bo/Tilted Kilt and Mark for setting today's meet up and for those that came today. I can't say enough about how appreciated it is. Sorry I could not get there early but I ensured I stopped by to support the effort of this meet. A lot of beautiful Lexus out there, Infiniti, FDs, and other vehicles.
What was absolutely shocking and disheartening was there were more Lexus owners from OUT OF TOWN here then people from Atlanta at a meet in Atlanta. Its getting to be pretty pathetic, a beautiful day out, a Lexus owner has a shop supporting us, another Lexus owner saves us an area outside and inside with a discount on food at his restaurant and we are outnumbered by every other brand but Lexus.
I pray the turnout tomorrow is 100 times better than today. Kudos to all the out of towners who came to Atlanta and came out today. Shame on us Atlanta.

Sorry I didn't get to see any of the Lex crew today. I did see all the Lexi though. Most of you guys were gone to eat by the time I made it over there. I didn't stay too long bc my 6 yr old was not feelin all 4 banger exhaust reving today. I had a good time though. Got to see an old Legend crew buddy of mine so it was a good time.
Did anyone see the white Soarer?

I was still very impressed with the turn out. Much better than last years nashville meet. Imo. Wanted to say thanks again to the boyz at Zens place for the support. We convoyed together and enjoyed the small talk and just hanging out. Sorry to hear about devons SC. At least he got it back to the shop. If you are out there and reading this, I enjoyed the talk this morning. Keep me and the SC community updated on the progress of the rebuild and the upcoming interior redo. I hope my interior was some sort of inspiration. Until next time...........

I saw the white Soarer. Pretty cool. I was kind of shocked. Overall, there were a LOT more people and cars than I ever imagined. I was surprised at the high volume of crappy beat up cars that seemed to be in limp mode. I thought there would be more exotics as well. I guess not... Was anyone else annoyed by the bikers revving nonstop? I thought the Lexus owners put on a pretty good show. The GSs, SCs and ISs had some sick setups. I even saw a couple VIPed LS460s (drool). I thought the M3s and 300/350/370 Zs had an equally impressive turn out as well. I only saw a couple Supras. Did I miss some?

I was very annoyed at the revving going on also. I seemed to be shouting to everyone I talked to.

the white soarer was parked near one of the lower levels. i believe that he posts on here cause someone from AL was talking about coming over in a soarer and it had an AL tag. i was glad to see all of the lexus owners showing up, i met a few cool sc owners from surrounding states. its great to know we have a basis out there yet still elite enough to be unique.
