Thumbs up LA Invasion was a blast!!!

Lots of fast cars and so many great looking hot rods. It was an honor to have the Hawk parked next to so many great looking cars. Congrats Chris on best F-Body you deserve it. Tha Anniv. SS was looking just phenomenal. Louis, I know you had to be a close second. ALL in all I had a great time. Wish I had made the Dyno comp. Can't wait until next year. My replacement at work gets here in Sept which means that I should make every event after Sept. thru Aug of 2010 which is when I move back to Fl. Hopefully, I can spend some time with SoCal Muscle. Anyhow enough said. BTW 10 Sec Honda's and a 14:30 2010 camaro SS, WTF.

Sorry about that. In hindsight I would have done it different, but the problem was that we did not get the preregistrations and things like trophies have to be ordered a week or more in advance.

With all the late sign ups it made for a successful event but it forced a lot of the preplanning to change to accomodate what looked like low numbers.

I had 67 people for the ROTW cruise and by the time the day came we had 95 cars i have no idea how many people. So that threw the T-shirt order way out of wack and why we did not have any today.

We learn from each year and make improvements for the next year.

Main thing is I hope you all had fun.

the hawk had my vote!Congrats to George and chris very well deserved. I wasent expenting much since i showed up with a ding on a fender. Quite frankly i would have been pissed if someone with a ding wins over a clean car.Oh well, I had fun and the SOm will get painted next week.Nice to see everyone again. Lots of great looking cars, George's,Chris,Sommer,6lE, Joser's, and I finally got to see that mineral grey SS.

Had a blast with the GTA on the ROTW cruise. Thanks to everyone who complimented us on the paint work and especially on the hood bird.

Thanks for hosting a great event again this year, we can't wait for next year and a chance to roll in with even more cars from AZ.

Twisties? Nobody told me about that. Thats all my car does! Straights its a dog but show it a nice set of twists and, "Hello Sunshine!"
