Mike, your car looked great and I know it's a hoot to drive. You might stop smiling...eventually.

Alvin, GREAT WRITEUP and PICS. You got the essence of the show; it's the best show around for JDM goodness.
Thanks for capturing me and my little Subie. Now I can prove where I was yesterday.

Cool write-up Alvin, kiddie activities had me missing this year again. HOTT I am sure, said 103 over near Seal Beach.
There seems to be pics here too, although I haven't figured out why my system here at home won't let me view them.

12 pages of pictures and only 3 of Roadsters (one repeated). I counted at least 9 roadsters there, nice showing!
