71DIMER Posted March 21, 2010 Report Share Posted March 21, 2010 What a meet! A huge amount of cars showed up, the Ratsun crowd was very well represented as well as the Toyota crowd. Great weather, not totally clear skies but very warm indeed. I took my camera but forgot to charge my batteries so I only managed to take pics of most if not all the Datsuns, and some of the what I thought were cool Toyota rides. I'll post them as soon as I get some rest. I busted ass getting ready for this meet all day Friday. I had to clean up my grill and coolers. After a while we were getting hungry so I busted out my propane bbq grill and cooked about 3-4 dozen hot dogs guys brought out (with no ketchup!!??..haha), then busted out the marinated carne asada and chicken/pork brought by others along with key condiments like cilantro, onion, mexican fresh cheese, limes, and fresh homemade (hot) salsa. All of a sudden riathe back of my wagon became a taqueria. There was so much food that we didn't even get to the other 2 meats I took with me. Man those tacos were pretty damn good if I do say so myself. Guys brought brownies, chips, and added thier drinks to the other cooler full of drinks I brought. It sure helps to have a goon for all this. Ok screw the resting, here's the the pics. First we had a little caravan of about 13 or so on the way over there. Then lots of cool rides.

Hey Allen it was nice to meet you, your wife, and your sister and thank you guys for the chicken, I think you gave us half of what you brought! haha :P I had some last night after getting home, since I only had about 2 tacos while I was there. Thank your wife and sister for helping us finish cooking the last of our carne asada after our grill ran out of propane. Next time (I'm sure they'll be another after this sucessful gathering) I'll bring the steak and you can bring more of that chicken. :) Quote Link to comment
jsvteck Posted March 22, 2010 Author Report Share Posted March 22, 2010 I would like to thank everyone that came out to the meet if I dint thank you personally and if I did thank you personally I would like to thank you again. I'm glad we have good support in out car community cause it turned out a lot better than I expected it to. :mrgreen: By the way things turned out i will most likely plan another one not sure when but I will.

Right on, you did a great job on letting the word out and that's the key. The folks I talked to all agree another one is wanted at some point especially now that the weather is warming up.

You just have to have the pictures hosted on some other site like photobucket or anything similiar then to post them on here you just have to get the pictures URL (you can get this by right clicking the picture and clicking properties and the URL will show up (hope this helps): then you just have to [ IMG ] yourURLlinkHERE [ /IMG ] with no spaces between anything.
