Default Photos from Jax, FL meet

Well guys I hate you all missed out on the meet. It was a LOT of fun. And the weather was perfect. lol everyone kept calling it "turbo weather."
We did have one sad thing happen We were on our cruise which is like a 15/20 mile trip and goes over this HUGE bridge called the Dames Point Bridge and this is the part of the meet where everyone was showing off their ****.. This guy with an EVO7(just shippedfrom Japan but had been recently "americanized" (made from RHD to LHD)) gets on the bridge and kicks it (even tho apparently earlier he'd told everyone he was going to chill b/c the car wasn't running right) but after he kicks it all anyone behind him sees is THICK smoke.. he was going fast enough to make it to the top of the bridge but his enginewas inflames, parts flew all over the place.. and some of the crap that flew out hit the evo BEHIND him and cracked his windshield and his carbon lip.. it was sadddddd.[]Apparently he was having wiring issues and somehow when he kicked it it caused a big enough problem to throw a rod through the block.. so that evo engineis DONE.
There were so many of us tho.. it was awesome. Everywhere you looked it was eclipses, talons, and evos!! . It was a little sad driving the whole weekend alone with no passenger but I made it by. There were photographers EVERYWHERE! They had them set up on on-ramps and stop signs and all over the place. I can't WAIT to see their photos. Here are some of mine..

Waiting on everyone to get there:


evos!

the guy that put the meet together: *drool*

His gf's car. we were the only 2 spyders!

SOME of the lineup:

SOME of the evos!!

and last but not least.. if you look to the bottom of the bridge the smoke you see.. yeah thats an evo engine blowin up



I have like 80 photos.. I just thought i'd give you guys the "summary" [8D]

Maybe next year Stephy...I have some plans for the interior of mine and finish up a little more on the exterior...hopefully Mother Nature will cooperate with me for the ride down there cuz I live in northwestern PA and it snows a lot this time of year here.

Now that is how a Eclipse should look. No body kit, Just rims and lower then make it fast as hell.
Any way I want to see more pics. Man those car are clean as hell.
