Heh, RX-7 meets were way worse in that regard. Loved the FD, but dependable they were not.

Thanks Andy for organizing this whole shindig. Had a great time despite the heat. And thanks to everyone that posted pictures, they really came out great.

Rob T · 06-28-2009, 09:37 PM

That Silver Exige S is sweet!

mikehall · 06-28-2009, 10:38 PM

Had fun today. Thanks for organising it all Andy.

Sorry I had to bail so early but time caught up with me.

Thanks Andy for organizing this meet. It was a great turn out. Let's do it again IN THE WINTER.

agirls · 06-29-2009, 08:38 AM

Thanks Andy for your hard work! It was nice to meet everyone that made it. Food and company was great. You'll never leave BJ's hungry! I always like to see the different people that own these cars! The white collection was pretty cool, but we were melting at that point. The GMR drive was great! No cars to hinder us and motorcycles chasing.

Glad I was able to attend this one.

Randy Chase · 06-29-2009, 09:29 AM

Hey all.

I had a good time. Thanks Trendy Exige for organizing and scheduling the soccer game on the plasmas while we ate.

The Pizookies were off the hook. I used to eat those all the time and now I am not allowed to, so if my doctor asks, you saw nothing.

Sorry for the hassle on getting into that gated community in Azusa. At least I arranged the police escort. She was hot. I bet she was sweating under the uniform...

HEAT. Holy Crap. By the times you guys left for the run, I was actually cooked. Jacob and I went and got some liquids. Then we headed over to the concert in Playa de Vista, where it actually got too cold. But it was a welcome change.

The car guy had half his collection in a warehouse, apologies for there not being more. I will take you to Leno's to make up for that. Burbank is a little cooler.

It was good seeing everyone. Next time I hope I can make the run too. But I had to do business. We were leaving to meet up with Frankie Munoz (Malcolm in the Middle dude) but now it looks like I am heading back up to Marina Del Rey to meet Frankie.

Sweet Adrenaline · 06-29-2009, 09:49 AM

I really enjoyed looking at all the pics! Wish I could have joined everyone, even though I heard it was ridiculously hot - yikes!

erics75218 · 06-29-2009, 01:36 PM

i'll post up some of my pics later on tonight! It was great fun meeting everyone and seeing all the cars. My wallet is pissed because now it's been opened up, I can't run a stock exhaust and show my face among all these amazing Lotusesiesimeniem's can I?

I'll post some pics later on!!!

BTW, the Marina was downright CHILLY when I got home...brr.

erics75218 · 06-29-2009, 03:16 PM

Ok here are some pics....this gets 1st place in the "Coolest Car In My Profesional Visual Effects Artist Opinion" award...so congratulations Randy!!! :-D

Sweet Adrenaline · 06-29-2009, 03:42 PM

I love the pictures of the Rossion! Beautiful

erics75218 · 06-29-2009, 04:49 PM

but..back to LOTUS....here are some pics of some of the interesting bits I saw out there today!

Sweet Adrenaline · 06-29-2009, 05:03 PM

Props to the Lotus pics too!

knucklehead · 06-29-2009, 05:17 PM

Awesome pics Eric.

BTW my browser is having a hard time loading your website.

erics75218 · 06-29-2009, 06:11 PM

DOH..what do you mean "My website" my visual effects portfolio, or the Picassa web album that contains those pics?

I wish I had more good pics, still re-learning how to use an "SLR".....aperture priority setting let me down this time. :-(

Murix · 06-29-2009, 06:16 PM

Nice. I think I am taking a real shine to the Rossion myself.

Me too. Following around Randy all day. I loved the sound. I have his car at my place right now, so I've really had an opportunity to look at it next to the Lotus. Even though the Rossion is only a little bit longer, the proportions seem better. I'm so glad they got rid of that giant duck tail.

I'll be around tomorrow if you want to stop by. I didn't really get permission to drive it, but you're more than welcome to come by to check it out.
