Ive been to some small *** shows that were better than that. Total disorganization. I was under the impression that this show was gonna be top notch with all the cars that were "gonna" be attending. If I wanted to go look at stock and junk cars I woulda made a stop at some dealerships and a junkyard instead. Never seen so much concentration of ricers in one spot before. It was worse than a Friday night @ a F&F opening.

I split early cuz the gf was being a b;tch, for the lack of a better word, so we scooted at 11

Its for my Droid X when I run GPS app. I pop open the ashtray and put my phone behind it. Still not done, have to pocket out the back for the phone to fit. THe black piece is just a filler piece for when the phone isnt in there.

On the plus side... you Houston guys have some pretty nice rides Your show setup was top notch too!

It was nice meeting a few of you for the first time (both Local & Houston)

I stayed the latest I think because most of the people I invited showed up after 10pm. Problem with the show portion is that they were making announcements that nobody would be able to hear from where we were all parked. I eventually saw two people walking around with clipboards and flashlights. They asked me if I was showing my car, and I said what's the point? I then added that they needed to get their crap together as I'm sure they'll see a lot of negativity from the whole ordeal.

I hope to see everyone else under better circumstances next time around

Yeah, I always see crap at the RKC meets. Like that one that died as it was being towed in. I thought they were supposed to be strict about not letting rice in. And all the douches at the exit trying to encourage people to get on it while leaving. Seriously? We had to leave before the cops were called.

Nice time afterwards Tony.

Well, not that I have ANYTHING to do with the success of a Rice Killer meet - I do feel bad that the whole thing was a huge bust. I have to agree with the sentiments of everyone else - that was hyped up to be waaaay more than what it actually was. Organization was non-existant and the show overall was a joke. I apologize to everyone.

On the flip side, it was great to see some of the Houston G's. Hopefully the next show that we are all at will be a hell of a lot better (not that it would take much to make it so).

I just read a REALLY long note by Jared on Facebook - sounds like there was even more fail than we realized. A lot of blaming and finger-pointing is going on. At the end of the day, the ball was dropped by everyone involved in my opinion.

- two guys with us won trophies - not exactly sure for what - they told us Ian - white G37 coupe won best infiniti, but heard that the suicide door (singular) G35 coupe won best infiniti... also had the white G37 sedan won best interior or something...

yes - i think that is the first mod you HAVE to do when buying those cars - if you stare at the lights long enough you get hypnotized into buying american..

it was - they will be having a feature in audio performance and sound magazine... can't wait.

It was more like a meet than a show... shows are better organized typically. the mod sheet paper was about the size of a fortune cookie. ridiculous.

yep - bummer... i think we are still planning to come back for the drift event at the end of Sept... hopefully. This show has left a bad taste in everyone's mouth... hell i drove all the way from New Orleans for this show. I'll be back in Houston by then so even if the next show sucks, its only a 4 hour drive instead of 8 hours!!

I was pumped when i saw how many cars were there, but then i started walking around and my excitement quickly disapated. Platelock - car looked good from the 5 minutes i saw it!

We should've just had our own DFW/Houston meet - would've had alot more fun i think!!!
