Tampa/St.Pete/Clrwtr QS&L Mini-Meet - Pictures

[_jb]

We had a great time at the Tampa/Clearwater/St. Petersburg Quaker Steak & Lube Mini Meet this afternoon. People came and left during the afternoon, so I don't know exactly how many people/cars were actually there, but I did count 21 cars at one point. People drove up from Sarasota and down from Jacksonville... driving G Coupes, G Sedans, Z's, M's, Maxima's, and GTR's. It was super!

I usually like to put my best shot of the whole crowd as my first shot. This time I was unable to fit everyone in one shot, but this is the closest. Good thing Jason had his hood up or we wouldn't know he was there!



Riley showed up with his new G Coupe sporting the 22 inch wheels everyone is talking about in the forums. It looks very good in person. Credit for thinking outside the box.



Rich drove his GTR up from Sarasota... Beautiful car!



Mike drove up from Sarasota with Rich, and was sporting some new performance options...



A brand new TurboNetics turbo installed by the Performance Factory in Orlando.

Several people were fortunate enough to get nice demonstration rides before the popo's decided that Mike had given enough test rides for the day. All ended well as Mike gave them a small demo and was on his way.



Here are Riley, Kyle, Chad, and Lenny discussing something very important... OK, I actually have no idea whet they are talking about.



Glad to see Kevin and Chris drive over from Lakeland for the event. Their Z's were looking good...



Bladercutter made it to the event. It was nice to meet you. Very nice, G.



Bladercutter's friend. Sorry I forgot your name, but your G Sedan is beautiful.



All of a sudden there were cars flying everywhere... Lyndon and Jason zoomed in together. It's easy to see Lyndon in the center of the group, but if you look to the right you can also see Jason blasting down the entrance road.



Jason's beautiful IP Coupe was fresh from Sharif's Forged Performance shop where he had a JWT twin turbo setup installed.



Very nice installation.



I'm not sure what's going on here... One of the many impromptu conversations that make Meets like this so much fun!



More shots of the cars... Down at the end you can see one of our new member's new G Sedan. It was nice to talk to you Ryan, you'll have to come to another meeting so I can get some better pictures of your car.



Lyndon, Bill, and Lenny's G Coupes were looking good!



And finally, John (Marshal2k) made it to the Meet after all. John helped locate the restaurant for our Lakeland Meet but was unable to attend. It was nice to finally meet him and his beautiful Laser Red G Coupe...



While we were standing in the parking lot after eating, I remembered that I forgot to take some pictures of the group in the restaurant. I have to say I just forgot this time. BUT, of course it was not my fault! I was sitting at a table with Chad, Daniel, Lyndon, Jason, Lenny, and Mark... our table was out of control... We had way too much fun...

Great times everyone... Thanks for coming!
