I bought a registration on their site, but there was no real registration form, so I hope I am signed up. Planning on spending the night somewhere around SJ, so I will plan on joining the caravan

quick update:
I am not leading the caravan from the shop but please feel free to meet there. It's a ~40minute drive to the show and if you want to register there instead of online you must be at the gate before 9am, so plan accordingly.

Unless other chime in that they plan to meet and leave earlier, I will see you guys there. I plan to leave my place at about 7ish which would put me there about 8am, then to the show by 9am.

The Silvia was painfully beautiful… There was just nothing I would have done different with that car… The green showed beautifully, the interior was amazing, the wheels, wheel color and size, and stance were spot on, engine was beautiful, it sounded good driving in, just yum…

Anyway, pics or it didn't happen? Dial up warning… Your data plan just took a hit..

Beautiful setting…

Pretty Skyline

Nice Corolla

Lots of Celicas..

Is fender art the new nose art?

Rocky Auto is known for swaps, so it's no surprise that swaps were so prominent. I was surprised at some of the swaps that were chosen, however..

Best of show went to this Honda wagon with a VTEC turbo swap

It was accompanied by this CVCC with a supercharged VTEC swap and towing a CVCC trailer

Anyway, great show.. Had a great time!
