He means from the night before. My wife is throwing a party for my birthday and Chet is probably going to crash on the couch to avoid a DUI and driving all the way back the next day.

You can bring a maxima if you want to... It is more of a 240sx thing, but last year some pretty cool cars showed up that weren't 240's. The 280zx show car should end up there again this weekend.

why bring the maxima when I have a 240? Look for the one with 3 different color body panels on it!

Ok, so as the guy that put this together, I thought that the weather had something to do with the lack of attendance this year. I am going to hazard a guess at about 30 to 35 cars showed up throughout the day and 50 or so people. There were some uncommon cars that showed up as well, the full blown true JDM S14 that was vin'ed out of washington state and the s14 rb26dett swapped car that was very clean. Only problem that we had was the rb26dett driver (didn't catch his name) was the ONLY fool this year that spun his tires, other than that he was a nice guy. Everyone else knew better or acted their age or better. There were alot of rattle traps and a lot of stockers there as well. One of the highlights of the day was seeing Russ and Chad show from the 240s_over_Atlanta crew with a trailered Sil-80 that was completly sick looking (in a good way). I have to say, that was the highlight of the cars for me. As well as the Titan it was being pulled behind. The Titan had some massive black 5 spokes on it with Stoptech big brakes. Very cool. Chet and Justin had slept in my den the night before. I woke their sorry a5535 up around 6:30 AM when I was putting on coffee and making breakfast. We were all out by 7:20 washing the cars and getting ready for the day. Torrey (ezcheese from NICO) showed up about 9:00. We were at the dam at 9:40 to make sure we had a pavilion for the day. Mike Sims from Tophat Performance showed up soon after that with a couple of folks from his shop to cook for us and provide us with information on his shop and all of their many services (his shop sponsored the meet this year). The rest of the day went the same as last year, people came and went most of the day. I had a good time and others had a good time, but if you were out there last year, you know it wasn't the same. Thanks to all for coming out and making it what it was, a dam good day.

do you only get together once a year? I go to church so I wasn't able to make it till late in the day (I was the one with the white S14 with the black fender and sand colored hood) but I had a good time once I found people to talk to. If there is anyone planning another meet some time soon, I'd love to hear about it.

ps I think if I had an rb26 I would find it pretty hard to resist the temptation to burn out too but I wouldn't do it, don't worry

this was the 2nd year it happened, as far as i know it will stay on a yearly basis unless camel decides to make it happen more often, because he is the one who organizes it (big thanks man for doing all that work!).
