Preach on brotha!

All I see here is a bunch of brown nosers persecuting people for voicing their own honest opinions about the meet. F*ck them and their butt leaching!

Of course people that didn't go don't need to be grateful for the meet, but if they didn't go, they aren't really in a position to talk about how the meet went, now are they?

No one is persecuting anyone. If you can't take people disagreeing with your opinion, then maybe you shouldn't offer it in the first place.

And there's a difference between voicing an opinion and being an *******. Offering an honest critique of the event should be appreciated (I'm sure some won't like it though), but there's a difference between constructive criticism and being disrespectful.

Overbear was at the meet last year. He was the awesome dude that brought the 8 cases of water.










I still think that the best part is that I actually got a Suby on saturday... and I still didn't go

Hmm... I can't remember meeting him, but I didn't really stick around too long last year and was busy filming the event for you.

Congrats on getting a suby, I hope you get some use out of the exhaust that I gave you, even though I gave it to you for free you still insisted that I take you're $40 which was really cool of you.

I didnt go to bam this year but did enjoy a nice day by the ocean. the weather was perfect and it was nice to have great friends to hang out with.

To those that are bashing on those that voiced their opion of not liking the meet. it is their opinion. it does not mean that the meet was bad it is just their opinion. i say let them speak, that is how you figure out what people didnt like and make next year better. Dont forget about all the past meets that people said were bad and they didnt like this that or the other. Even in this thread there are people that are bashing but yet they voiced their opinions about last years meet and some didnt even stay long at last year. if they were not here the whole time how can they say it was bad? cause it was/is their opinion. It is not cool to say they can not speak up when there are plenty of people speaking up about past years. There is never going to be a meet that will please 100% of the people that go to it.

I do say thanks to all those helpers for trying to make it the best for everyone that did go. The volunteers in my opinion are what makes this sort of thing great.

I scored a 09 2.5i. Luckily, I was so desperate to hear what the exhaust sounded like, I got it on my buddy's 02 wagon (WRaholicX) and I think that it is going to spend a lot of time on his car.

Yea you met me man, think back. Big guy, bearish, in a black cowboy hat.

JourdanWithaU- wow good memory, I am surprised you would remember such a small detail. It was no big deal, just doing my part to help out...becides its up to us forester owners to bring bulk stuff, you poor wrx owners cant fit much in the tiny little trunk you have

Noah- Yea I knew it was done, just had/have SO much going on I could not get up there, this weekend was packed. Plus I was down all last week with a major medical problem, oh well...

Oh and last, the guys at LIC are the BOMB, they have my loyalty for good, no other shop will ever touch the forester.
