I looked at the link and it certainly seems like a great event. Has anyone ever been to the Friday evening event?

As for Saturday, my wife has an IS350 and I have a GS450h and we were thinking about coming down, what all happens at these events?

Thanks

We all park our cars together in an organized fashion, take some pics, chat it up, talk about upcoming events/shows..enjoy the event...and talk about our cars..grab food/drink and just relax

Thanks. We'll put it on our calendar. What time is the early get in up to? If I read your note above correctly, once in we'll be there until the event finishes, is that correct?
