**PHOTOS** December 8th - Seattle/Vancouver BC meet **PHOTOS!**
Hey All,
I just got back from the Seattle/Vancouver BC meet, and I gotta tell ya, it was a BLAST! It was the biggest turn-out so far for the Seattle area members (according to Jerry, and he's been to 'em ALL!) It was great meeting everybody, and we definately need to do it more often! Here's a few pics from the get-together:
Makes ya proud, doesn't it? All of you who didn't attend missed out on getting some very cool what looks to be brushed aluminum S2000 lapel pins handed out by, God help me I can't remember his name (sorry, can somebody help me out? All I know is he was driving a brand-new -two days off the lot- 2002 Red S2000). Here's a pic:
Hey that was awesome, I'm glad I finally made it to one of these meets. Yep talk about nervous excitement, 2nd day driving the S2000 and first time driving it in the rain. Thoughts that kept running through my head were those posts I've recently read here "Just driving 15 mph and my car does a 180" and "Just cruising on the freeway, hit some water and I hydroplane, glad the airbags worked". You know real confidence inspiring stuff. To top it off, I'm sort of behind Ray and I constantly see him doing his power slides.
Couple of observations, when it's raining hard and you have the top down, I guess you're suppose to roll up the windows. I finally figured that one out after getting about a gallon of water from the wipers down the driver's side door panel. I still haven't figured out how you look out the back when you're reversing with the top up. I can't see crap out the rear "glass" window and if I try poking my head out the side, I keep hitting the convertible top. Do I have a big head or something???
Ted/Daryl, you guys split before I got the pins out and I was sitting right next you. I'll save one for you.
Thanks all for your hospitality! I had an enjoyable time at my first gathering. Looking at some of your cars, makes me know what to aspire to. Hey, I had to split before you guys hit the Burgermeister (I took off up 405 North right when you guys were getting off at Bellevue) Scooby, will you save me one of those cool pins?
Hehe. Sorry guys just back from snowboarding. No I didn't drive to Steven's using the s2k.
Anyhoo, the Red Hardtop looks an awful lot like an IS300 doesn't it? We also had a pair of Type R Integras tag along. One of which was Bannanie's new car. In total, there were 21 cars, 17 of them S2000's. A few of the guys stopped by my place to check out the video and all that. Andrew, thank you for the pin. I snapped it to my lapel for the MS Chrismas Party and everyone commented on it. Yeah, i qualify as something of a fanatic...
Everyone who made it to the meet and all of those who didn't, please don't forget to PM me your mailing addresses for the so I can send you all copies of the video.
