well that was shitty
cops blocked off every street in (never mind that that's really bad for businesses...dumbasses) and swarmed everywhere the whole night...parking lot was 2/3 empty
I would have made it in but I blew a tire around the corner from the parking lot
saw an orange ss and an orange z28 and a couple zl1s stashed off in a corner
it was fun anyway! too bad it wasnt like last year and this was the last one

They were just trying to make sure people didn't do anything stupid. It's not their fault people do burnouts and drive like idiots at events, but they are just trying to keep it from getting out of control.
I would say it's just Honda kids but stupidity has no prejudice.

i thought it was funny that no less than ten news vans with live anchors showed up to cover the nonexistent "action" and ended up interviewing cops all night.

the host of the meet said the same thing last year because of all of the burnouts. he was somewhat upset about the turnout because of all the closures so im pretty sure there will be another meet but at a different location.time will tell....

IMHO cops were way over their heads. They tried to shut down the meet by closing off the Shopping Center but In reality instead of people parking etc they were just driving all over the place. And it quickly over flowed into surrounding places the cops then chased people around all night kicking them out.

Meet itself wasn't huge but there was ALOT of cars just running around Burbank filling up any parking lot they found.

they're blinded by a blood lust for people who like cars.

Yeah don't get me wrong I think them blocking entrances was dumb, but yeah I have been talking with a few Honda guys and a lot of the kids at Honda meets are smoking weed and drinking then doing burnouts and revving their ****. Also a couple fights have broken out and they are trying to keep those incidents down...
The car scene is changing for the worse.. It's not like the old hot rod shows anymore they are becoming places for retards to show off and screw up.

clearly our law enforcement friends need to take a course in telling the difference between a rice gathering and an actual car meet.
the one car i saw speeding in the parking lot on tuesday was an infiniti... and it didn't even get pulled over. other than that, some bikes were making noise and some kid in a mach 1 got pulled over for revving in front of a cop and having no plates... lmao
if they had just kept it down to a police presence in the parking lot, they really wouldn't have had a problem and it wouldn't have been that big of a deal for the participants.
i didn't see the few cops who were in the parking lot unduly harassing anyone either, not even the bagged minitrucks laying frame or the people without front plates.
