Awesome turnout, it's looking like! I'll be there (no racecar this time -- it's sleeping) with my camera!

HA! You've just gotta get your priorities straight, lol. There were (I am pretty sure) 19 Subies, blue was the dominant color. It was about half Impreza, half STI. There was also a tricked-out Toyota mini truck with hydraulics, and me in my Miata. There were 23 people, and one baby. I've only been to one other meet, but this was definitely a good one. I'll post pics for you guys as soon as I touch them up. I know I missed at least two of you, but don't worry -- surely there will be many more. I'm only going to post the best ones, so don't get upset if your car isn't up. We really need to meet at around 11AM to get the best photo op. It was fun folks, thanks for having me!

hahaha
nice meeting you bonnie

I love the idea about the lights, though. If we can 'outshine' the perimeter lights, and avoid the 'stars' in the pics, this would be AWESOME. I am merely an amateur shutterbug . . . used to be much better, but out of practice. I might even bring my (non-digital) SLR next time . . . but it won't probably be for a few weeks. I've got to go and instruct in So-Cal for a couple of weekends.

I really admire your spirit and your ability to mod a vehicle. I got some good shots, though somewhat shaded, and look forward to modifying them to make your truck look as nice as it did tonight. See you in a few weeks???BW
