BUT i will also say you were just another car junkie, jsut like everyone else out there, having a good time. when it blew up, you were not mentioned by ANYONE there. if you hired cops, thats awesome! i'm not knocking you for that, but do it because you love the hobby, not because you're hoping someone will notice you. if you do it for recognition, you're doing it for the wrong reasons, homie.
    Hell ya man we cool, E-shit don't get between us lol. I never did it for recognition. I did it because of love for the hobby not to be like "yea i am the shit." I went there as everyone else did. No one mentioned anything because i didn't go around blabbering about it, "yea i am UpSideDownDesi, my meet", like i am getting pinned with it here. I stay to myself most of the time.

    Did i personally invite 200 cars? No, but i do think i have a good hand in making it what it is today.

    We all liked it when it was just the "Gwinnett Meet", now it being public (thanks Julio), expect it to get worse...BP V.2.



    BTW Julio if you are not going to help out don't mess with the meet. We (we as all who go to the meet) were happy it being somewhat private, not everyone knowing. Kept most of the BP idiots away, even though we have fair share of our own. Since you have stepped in, edited the thread, and posted the address of the meet. Are you gonna be there every meet to keep it in check?

    Sorry, but you are kidding right? That shit is posted all over this site. This thread will not reveal your oh so secret Sonic Meet location, time, day, etc. Give me a break on that shit. How did you organize it? Its a public parking lot where people park and talk. If you got cops to come, great, props to you. I guarantee you that you did not singlehandedly stop the "retards" from coming though. But that's beside the point. The point is its a public parking lot meet posted all over the biggest forum in the Southeast..... You can expect it to grow as more members join. Its common sense.

    When it was 20-30 cars for the longest time, did mostly other than gwinnett peeps knew about it? U know it that was the same people every week . That's what i meant by somewhat private, it stayed among people who attended with only couple of new faces here and there.

    Yeah but your post was directed towards Julio saying its his fault that the meets will get out of hand for posting the info in THIS thread. Not like the shits not posted all over the rest of this site. Plus word of mouth...

    I have no personal beef with you Sunny

    Some people take E-beef way too seriously & way too personally, and no i don't have any beef or anything against you . Net is net, "why so serious" lol?

    I am not trying to be cocky or saying it's my meet when i talk about the meet, but i have seen it evolve and the changes it went through.

    Sonic Meet was the shit, no stupid things happened even when 100+ cars showed up. We had ZERO idiots, all calm. It doubled number when address was posted in OP for 1 month in 08. Guess who mostly showed up? It was the idiots, and it's been plagued since. Everyone who attended the meet knew where it was, came every week, brought friends along, but knew that it was no BS, laid back meet. People coming over and over respected that, but new idiots who showed up, brought it down.

    Did u go check out the Gwinnett Sonic meet thread before posting? I was talking about address being posted in that thread . Have i said i did it all by myself? Did you read my previous posts, "with the help of friends, and it made itself overtime." I can't stop retards from coming unless it's a restricted meet, not to public meet. Why didn't it grow from 06 - summer off 08, when it still happened? Why all of a sudden boom 20-30 to 70 within 1 meet difference and then to 100-200 cars?

    lol.. What am I going to do? Nothing.. lol

    You sure you want to flex.. ? I mean, I havent done much..



    Created Importatlanta.com

    Created Tuners gone wild show w/ CBT and Importsouth back in 03 @ Atlanta Dragway

    Created Tunerfest shootout back in 2004..

    Some of the biggest meets as far as imports.... hmm Kmart in Gwinnett 500+ cars back in 01- 02


    Do you want me to keep going sir.?


    I'm glad when I go to meets now a days, people hardly know me.. I have never once in my life bragged about Importatlanta or TFS... NEVER

    You can ask anyone who knows me... I dont walk around saying.. Yeah, I own IA blah blah blah..

    Never sir..

    Listen man, actions speaks louder then words..


    I understand that you are trying to market yourself.. Be fucking smart about it..
    Better ways man..

    Do you know that When I started Importatlanta.com I never even rocked stickers on my car back then.. I had friends with IA stickers all over their cars... some people would say that I was stupid for doing things the way I did.. But yo, 40K + members later.. 9 years and running, Hmm.. not so stupid despite the mistakes Ive done through the years..

    You can make people believe in your Ideas and see your vision w/o you even saying a word man..


    You know why I think you are douchebag, because you were always trying to advertise houses or whatever on here a couple of years ago.. slide shit through.. I respect any man trying to make $$.. but must do it the right way..

    If you wouldve ask me back then instead of trying to use me like a bitch.. I responded and acted.... called you out.. you got offended..


    And from a business stand point.. I know for fact how most people of your race are and try to make a dollar out of a dime.. Not being racist.. Call it like I see it. And no Im not racist.. for the 2nd time...

    1st to run mouth, last to pay...


    And despite all that shit.. I still shook your hand at TFS 2009...

    You didnt look at my eyes and your hand was shaking like a little girl...

    Why man? I was willing to talk and shoot some ideas around....

    The only reason you are still around here ( IA ) is because of Paul....

    This is nothing personal bro.. Just business.


    So if you want to try to call me out.. step your resume.. Because right now is slim compare to mines...


    And if you know anything about marketing.. you would know that a large % of the ricers that go to BP / Sonic or the V.. dont even get on Fucking IA...
    I mean, look around dude.. IA is not about ricers anymore like the early days.. we have serious enthusiast on here.. C'mon bro.. the majority of the ricers are fucking hispanics....
    I mean, look around.. How many fucking hispanics on IA ?

    C'mon Marketing God..

    And no, Im not bragging... But you did want to flex...

    Since you are all over Paul's sweet ass.. ask him how much we invested with TFS 2009.. Putting on a free event bro... We will not say a lost.. because this was our way of giving back to our IA members....


    Oh and PS.. you dont even want to get into my car show days bro..


    From competitor to Business ..... dude.. wake up.

    K-Mart or Toys-R-Us?

    Don't forget all the IA/local shop meets we had as well that were quite successful. The IA/Hybrid Motorsports meets and the IA/UAB meets. We overflowed those parking lots and had to use the entire business complex over at Hybrid. Very successful. Later, QD.

    Julio i wasn't saying anything about TFS or IA, neither are they the topic here, i know what y'all with the help of sponsors have done, no need to lay it out.

    You remembered to comment about how i shook my hand, but forgot that i did look straight at you, i took your hand with a smile, and said "good event man". I stood right there after, should have shared what you wanted to talk about. I was gonna talk too about just squashing this online BS because it's not doing any good or goin anywhere, but like you i didn't say anything either.

    I got no personal beef with you, and yea all this BS started year or so back when you took down the houses i posted. You are telling me that I should have just messaged after you called me out by makin a thread swearin left and right at me. You could have messaged me too with a warning PM after deletin my threads for houses, it would have been cool. Instead you told all the mods to delete all my F/S thread even if they were car parts, for my car or any small thing. Believe me or not, you did brag out IA ownership. Even others said what u did was hard. All the BS has been goin on since.

    I know for fact too that people of my race get a dollar worth out of a dime (pretty smart at business stand point), reason we have achieved and stand where we do .

    This online BS can go forever or we can squash it or move on with it. I got no personal beef with you and e-beef is worthless. I am ready to shake hands and move on if you are?

    In defense of Julio's staff, it is stated that we don't have to PM anyone with why we do what we do. Not even the OP. Later, QD.

    Correct, but where does it state to create a callout thread swearing at me then telling other mods to delete my other non related threads (that don't break any rules)?

    All I can say is that he's the boss. You can do what you want on your own site. I'm sure Julio knew that his post to you wouldn't have any ramifications on IA (as it is obvious since it's still growing) so he did it. If he thought it would have had a major impact, he might not have done it. You have to remember that it's his site. He can do what he wants. If we don't like it, then we can leave. Hail I'm included in that, dude. And, according to a drunken Scotsman, "I'm the shit." Later, QD.
