here are the cellphone pics i snapped while driving around in deep water
first is ice machines floating around, 2nd is F250 w/mustang in fairly deep spot, 3rd is same truck from the side, 4th is just a picture looking up toward the gate from the deeper water
deepest spot was about 1.5 ft deeper than where the F250 sat too![]()
haha... I saw the Frontier driving around, I didn't realize it was you.
QD I was the blonde guy wearing the Tein shirt at the Full Lock Media "booth" that was walking around filming stuff.

WTF was the deal at the entrance? I preregistered online so I could have the promo price and when I got to the window they said I needed the flyer? WTF in the preregister page it said you could not use both preregistration and flyer? I ended up paying full price because I took a long ass drive to get there.
What is gonna happen to the guys that paid the "race" price and didn't get to race because of the storm?????

oh, and all i did was say that i prereg'd to the guy at the gate and they gave me the prereg price... although him and 6 other people asked if i had pants and a jacket to ride in![]()
man, that storm sucked ballz. i almost floated away in my gutted EG. I was hoping i didnt have ne unintentional water ingestion. Whats happened to the b-ball tournament? i wore shorts so i could play which put me out of racing and i didnt even see a ball. good thing i didnt personally pay to get in or i wouldve been pissed (sponsor wristband). So what now, can we get a discount on the next event? lol
I still had fun too.
Atleast someone had fun.Originally Posted by HiPSI
Looked like we got lucky that we didnt go in the track. Would of sucked for my car. Drove that far, to just sit at Pizza Hut. wtf.![]()
WOW..what a mess... I left about 15 mins when the hard stuff came down and started hearing hail crack all over my car.. Luckily someone was in front of me on the way out and back to main st, because if not, I couldn't have seen anything!!
That storm was wicked... been awhile since I seen rain come down that hard and start rivers!
Heh, a few guys in Civics actually took their cars underneath the stands once the water started to get nice and high:

What if there is no tomorrow? There wasn't one today.
i was tryin to decide if i wanted to go for a romp in the deep water but i said screw it and left....and erin i saw ya right as i was leavin and you were drivin through the water and grass....but yea that sucked pretty bad....and the show had killer potential too....
The show still went on after the rain/hail/hurricane/whatever the hell that was let up. Pretty much everything other then the SHOW part was canceled. The bikini contest went down too at like 9:30ish.
yup... drove up there, saw rain and heard tunerfest was cancelled so I turned back...
i had a pretty good time althought the rain set us back about an hour! would have been an awesome show if it wasnt for rain, crowds were starting to form. also got to meet a few nice people and see the bikini contest.
damn glad i had to work and didnt make it! my poor 7 would have died there. anybody hydrolock there car???
One Big Ass Mistake America
i heard like 3 or 4 people hydrolocked their car (unconfirmed)...then while we were driving down 85 i saw a red evo with it's hood up and a black s13 with it's hood up.....i left around 7ish also....i was prereg also and told the chick at the gate..and i didn't get charged full price.....Originally Posted by NAFC3S

That blows. I did just as much as my friends that paid 5 bucks when I paid 25 you know.
Ahh fuck it I saw the hottest turbo we4 regal in my life run a 9.8. Worth 20 bucks.
Also was that dyno very accurate? I dont know but that rhd fd dynoed 215 to the wheels. i just laughed. I wanted to see what it made torque wise probably like 170 something.

Nice to meet ya too! I just hate everything that happened last night..I know that reallysucks for you guys. When everything happened I just decided to split, I know its frustrating when something goes terribly wrong and then to have 30 people standing around asking questions and taking pictures doesn't help. I hope everything comes out okay..still wanna trade???Originally Posted by tracy

It came down hard as hell for about 20 minutes non stop, I have some pings from it, On a daily driver it wouldnt be a big deal, but on a car that I only use for show, makes it a big deal to me, ya know

Oh yeah, I have hail damage on my driverside and on the hood as well. The size of the hail wasnt really a factor, but the wind slamming the hail into your car was crazy. That wind was strong as hell and I bout cried as I sat in my car listening to it happen.

Dude, I was going to pull my car up to use the Mahdavi trailer as shield but the trailer started rocking back and forth, the rain was going right to left instead of down, my car was rockin back and forth (weight 3200 lbs) so that was some intense wind. When the hail started I was like oh f@& this sucks! I was watching my reverse camera in the PT and shit was floating by. At one point I could bearly see the cars across from me and the lighting was huge. I called Pablo and said,ok Pablo you can turn off the rain now. I got some pics of these poor folks trying to hold their tent down from blowing away! It was definately not boring! Kudos to all the peeps that tuffed it out you are hard core show people.
Yeah its ashame not alot of people stayed, they should have, would have made for a great show after the monsoonOriginally Posted by coolZero
