Yup, the electronics start to flip out as soon as the tach needle swings up to 7200 rpm. What's that little Nissan motor rev to again?

Big thanks Kelly and his family for hosting, Mike for all the sweet meguiar's stuff, Bob for helping everyone along. Also Kelly I was really hoping for a bigger and louder TV set to cool off to. I could barely see the screen and with the volume all the way up, my ear didn't ring enough. It was a great turnout...and a great way to waste away a sunday evening.

Hey thanks again Kelly for having me even though I was just supposed to stop by and drop off my PC to you guys. It was a very good chance for me to get to know everybody.

Mike thanks again for introducing me to everybody and for the great Meguiars products. I do use Zaino on the Z but I frequently use Meguiars on my other cars and my motorcycle.

Bob, thanks for the lessons you gave, I know alot of the folks here needed it. Hmmm...Juan.

Hope to see you guys again soon.

Hey, Juan was in control of the volume...File all wrongful hearing loss law-suits against him!!!! As for bigger TV, there is a movie theater right up the road from my house!

I'm sorry about the difficulty finding the place. Next time, you'll be here in a Jiffy.

Absolutely man. I'm glad you got a chance to hang out. I'd like to keep your PC just long enough to get ready for HIN, then I'll arrange to get it back to you, is that OK, or do you need it before then?

That TV if you even want to call it that is freaking sweet.

Next time, it will probably take about 10 minutes to get to your place. Again thanks to everyone who made it possible.

Huge THANKS goes out to Mike, Bob, Kelly, and your family for putting together a very informative and fun day! It was cool seeing everyone work together to detail eachother's cars. The end results were amazing.

Kelly, I don't see how yesterday could be improved much. There was plenty of food and beverages, plenty of parking (thanks to your neighbors), and plenty of giveaways for everyone (thanks again Mike). Now if more cars showed up wanting to detail their cars, a bigger and better sun-blocking tent would allow 2 cars to be detailed at once. Just a thought for next time.

Oh, I think I forgot my leftover claybar .

No problem bro, when ever you can get it back to me is fine. Hopefully I will be able to meet up with you guys to drive to HIN, but I might have some wedding business to take care of that weekend. It sucks I've been waiting for HIN every since I heard it was coming to the Chantilly Expo Center, but we only have a couple months before the wedding and we have a few things to finalize.
