Good news!

Sounds like there should be a pretty solid group coming out of the area.

Right now it's me and Justin (Bluwrxwagon) and possibly one other guy. I wouldn't mind having 1-2 other guys that I trust.

Basically you just hang out at the event. I don't expect you do do anything out of the ordinary. Just go about the meet as you would normally. Just keep an extra eye out for people being shady.

In the past we've had people steel shirts/sweatshirts, wine glasses, food, etc. At this event I would say the biggest issues are going to be this...

1. Littering
2. Stupid driving habits
3. People poaching... not paying. It's wide open so people will probably just dip in. So the number job of anyone working security is gonna be looking at people's wrists when they walk around. No wrist band you just politely tell them to come talk to me or someone that's working the pay area... That's it. I don't expect anything physical. Just more eyes.

I was going to try to do it a bit cheaper but I need to order extras for those idiots that don't pre-order and I have to hit certain numbers to keep cost down.

Sound reasonable to you guys?

Volunteers will have to order their stuff through me directly or through a volunteer leader and the prices are quite a bit lower. I wanted to do free... and some folks will get free ones... like Walker. But not everyone.
Hey I have a pretty solid hookup at BG Concepts in san jose, they print all my geer. Let me know maybe we can get the costs down A LOT more. text me 4087226569

My wrx is finally fixed!! Picking it up next week

After fixing multiple vacuum/hose leaks and running it on the dyno a bunch of times, paul put a new boost control solenoid, tuned it and all is good...

As he said on the phone "...yeah I tuned it, gave your car some *****..."

Man I need to put some ***** into mine! If I can ever get done with all this GOD DAMN maintenance I swear subaru's are like the Japanese version of an Alfa Romeo or jaguar with the price of parts and the amount of maintenance all the time.
