41 Attachment(s)
For those that were at this years G35 Sedan GTG IV event know that this was the best one yet. For those of you who couldn't make it, no problem, I took the initiative to capture the event between conversations with those present, and beers with Tim Trank :biggthumpup:.
I want to give a huge thanks to Marcus Cooke, Grant Plummer, Chris Leiva, Danh Vo, and everyone at Tanabe. I had one of the best times with friends, cars, and photography......looking forward to next year's event...enjoy the pictures. I have more photo's that were sent to DSport Magazine to review for a possible feature. Obviously I cannot post those yet, not until I get confirmation on whether or not they will be used. I will share those when I can..... Approximately 100 cars were present.....so legit! Attachment 214449 I have to give props to Duy Truong for making the drive out here from El Mirage, Arizona. Unfortunately he had an incident with his front lip..... Attachment 214450 ....and his rear quarter panel too. Nonetheless, I like your set up. Attachment 214451 Jeremie Izon's car was one that I wanted to check out personally. He wrapped his car red in his own garage.....came out good for a DIY. All he needs is a different front bumper. Hit up Eric @bausauto :biggthumpup: Attachment 214452 Attachment 214453 Not a G, but a sedan...Courtney's 328i is sitting tight on SSR Professor's and huge Rotora BBKs...

Wow great coverage Chris awesome pictures and rides, really wish I would have made it, but next year 4sure ill be there.. :biggthumpup:

guessing no shots of Tim or your car because they're in the magazine batch;)
|
Good looking out Criss. Pictures came out crisp.
|
Sick coverage bro!
|
Epic coverage! Really need to get to this meet next time!!!
|
In all seriousness guys the alcohol issue is a big deal. Tanabe could be held liable if something happens. I'm hoping that we can have the GTG V at Tanabe next year so we gotta make sure we don't have an issue in this area at future GTGs. Thanks for understanding.

Great coverage chris. That looks like one hell of a time. I wish it was closer than a few thousand miles from me lol
