Man, this was such an AWESOME meet! 
We got a good turn out of Evos, total about 16 car (14 at Venice, 2 caught up later in the canyons), it's great to meet up with so many Evo owners and see the new faces at the meet. The convoy was drawing so much attention, everybody was looking at us, reving at us, some lady sitting at a bus stop on Lincoln even pull out her camcorder and started filming us.
The canyon run was insane
, with so many tight turns, and truely shows how well balanced and awesome our Evos are on the twisties. So sorry for Rich, Roy and Josh, hey if you guys need any help just let us know.
Mad props and thanks go to Rich for planning out such an awesome route, and Rob for organizing the event
Stupid me, brought my camera but forgot to put in the memory card, so I didn't get any pics. Hope to see somebody post pics and video soon

GO MAYA!!! She's gonna be a better driver than we will ever be!!! Unbelievable turnout for such short planning!! Couple of hickups, sucks to get a speeding ticket when you aren't "trying" to go fast. But the ticket was almost worth it to see all the EVO's parked on the side of the road waiting for us three pieces of "roadkill". Blown tires ROCK!!! I guess it's a good thing I had tires lined up before the meet, hehehe. Thanks to Noel and Chris for lending me their spares, you guys saved my ***. Thanks to Jeff for speeding things up by jumping in and popping the lugs off! (I turned away for a sec, then turned back to the tire and there he was unscrewing the lugs!) And thanks to the other Jeff, for stopping by and keeping me company while Ponch was taking my part of his monthly collection. I wish that we could have gone a little faster through there, but as it turned out that with close to 15 EVO's on Latigo with no incidents, other than 3 tickets, AMAZING!! Sorry for the ****ty planning, I'm surprised that with "MY" luck it turned out so well. I'll post up the across the street pics in a sec. Deffinately looking forward to next month's meet when we have more planning...let's shoot for over 20 EVO's guys, and get on our way to being the largest EVO group in the country. SoCalEvo

Rich,
Awesome job! Turnout was great and it was nice to see so many enthusiasts... We got to do a harass the dealer day at an uncooperative dealer like, say... SANTA MONICA! Have that for our start place to meet and block all the service area with about 20 evos till they give it up...
Sorry bout ponch. What happened with the tires?
Anyway awesome effort -SoCalEvo rocks
- pick up your pics...

Awesome meet!!! I think that's the first time I've seen one cop pull three people over at once 
I'm betting it's some kinda personal record for him too. Good thing there weren't more of us glued to Rich's bumper
Oh, and don't forget the Leno sighting
This is the hardest part of each meet - going home and waiting a month to go back out there and do it all over again...
