Wow what a day. Nice pictures sharif, nice one with me, sandy and craig. Congrats on the award.

It was a pleasure to meet you and sandy. Thanks for making my car feel 100x slower after sitting in it for that ride. Its definately time to build, you have great marketing strategies. It's truely a work of art man. The rain kind of dampend our after hours fun, but still made the best of it.

I have some footage of sharif's car I'll take a look at it and see whats good. I know Craig (Taurran) took some nice pictures of our cars that he'll post in time.

Man you guys are crazy. There were tornado warnings and everything. I thought for sure it would be to wet do go do anything. It was nasty out. As soon as heard about the warnings I went to bed. I guess I missed out. I'll see you guys @ the BBQ in a little bit.

Just got back to the shop. It was really great finally meeting many of you for the first time, and a few of you the second time.

Yeah, we had some GREAT races lined up..and them BAM....massive thunderstorm. But once the rain stopped, we did go out and play. I even found a gas station with leaded 110 octane so I could use my nasty mapping. I had a blast....raced an R1 with mods, and kept him to two cars. Also raced an S14 with a GT35 and a claimed 600whp+, and beat him too..even though he got a really big jump...couldnt hear his horn!! We were going to race again, but he ruptured his radiator hose, and there was smoke and coolant everywhere.

Someone dropped the camera during the S14 race...LOL...and since we only did one race, there was no opportunity for a repeat.

Maximum sport should have some footage of a nasty pull away that I did in downtown orlando.

Haha, that car sounds so sweet and pulls like a mule.

It was a pleasure to finally meet you Sharif. I hope you had a great time in Orlando and hope you got the best out of it. Looking forward to see you in the future.

BTW: Here is my thread on Z FEST 2006!!!

Rons' car is sick looking. Can't believe how clean. The two Skylines were hawt!

Orlando Zs had some sick rides.

Rain? Bleh, I should have stayed. Sure would have been better than the storm of Love Bugs I ran into on the way back to Tampa!

Look forward to next years....
Thanks! That was an awesome show with an awesome display of Z cars both old and new. The Skylines and G35s were also very impressive.

Sharif, it was great to see you again and talk extensively about our plan. As you know, I have the utmost confidence in you and your shop and am excited to get my early Xmas present.

Sandy, it was great to meet you and talk with you. As the saying goes "behind every great man is a great woman".....certainly seems to apply with you and Sharif. Look forward to seeing you both again in Dec.

I wish I could've made it to "the corner" on Sat nite for the "real fun."

Ron

LOL...it was a great time.

Too bad I couldnt get the Skyline to play. The guy said he just recieved it 3 days ago, and it was completely stock. His WOT throttle pass in front of the crowd, definately confirmed that. Still would have made a great vid.
