PLATINUM VIP @ Extreme AutoFest San Diego 2009

Sorry for the lateness, been pretty busy lately, and I've had many things going on lately. You guys probably know about the fire in Glendale earlier yesterday. I hope everyone is safe and doing fine!!!


Here's the pics I took of our excursion to San Diego and the cars. We ended up going on Saturday, and arrived in SD around 9PM. The drive was a bit scary, especially when you're driving other people's cars. We did our best to be very careful in driving our friends cars. Kennedy drove the RV, Mike drove Javi's GS, Henry drove Kennedy's Aristo (Might I add that it doesn't have AC :P), and I drove Jay's 300C (Jay calls it the death trap), and Ed drove Keith's 6 Series. It took us around 3 hours to drive, and we were turning heads everywhere... we managed to almost cause a few near-accidents because of drivers not paying attention to the road!! We stayed over, heading into the roll in on Sunday. The show was alright, and the trip hope was crazy too! The RV actually left us in the dust, and arrived back BEFORE our cars did! We probably hit 70-75 max on both trips, back and fourth. Braking hard and rubbing over the horrible roads made us cringe! And I must mention, when you run super negative camber and drive on the 60fwy, around the Rowland Heights area, it's scary as balls! In the 300C, when I was going straight, the car would randomly pull to the left or right real hard... I thought I popped a tire or something, but it turned out to be the horrible roads. It gave me a pretty good scare, but when we got to the shop, all was well, besides rub marks on the rear wheels :/ ... but it couldn't be helped. We did try our best though, and we made it back home in one piece, and relieved! I felt a huge weight come off my shoulders as we returned back to the shop. The 300C is going under the knife again now, and I'll be showing you its progress these next two days! I think you will be quite surprised with what's coming!!

Anyways.....
Horray, i'm not sunburned anymore!! I actually didn't really get sunburned in San Diego. I was sunburned at the shop when we were preparing for the excursion to San Diego!! I did my best to stay away from the sun during the show, so I took a nap in the RV, and put sunblock before I left to take photos. No, I didn't cover the event though, sorry!! I did get a few pictures of Jenny Chu, Sophia Lin, Desiree Vidal, and a few other models though!!

Enjoy the slideshow!!! Or you can click to enlarge pics :)



Quick reminder:
IF YOU PUT ON SUNBLOCK..... NEVER put it close to your eye. I actually got sunblock in my eyes, and it took about 3 hours to come out... and I flushed my eyes many times, and it didn't help!!!
