the event was definitely cool, but that line was f'n LOOOONG. we started waiting in line around 10 or so and didn't get in until like 2pm. i thought most of the cars were dope as hell, but there were some that i don't think should've gotten into the show. whatever though. if they move locations next year i might be back... there were a lot of people in a not-so-big venue!

4th Wekfest SF for me in a row.

Great time hanging with all the CL crew as usual!

Nice to see several of the SoCal CL guy's make it up to Norcal.

Damn.. That mean I could've made it. I was like right behind where they stopped the line. Like 5 feet back.

Elvin what are you talking about?? That Camero with the 24's was best of show in my eyes!! he got robbed!! LMAO!! but hay I'm liking the pix you took man esp the one's with me in them hahaha!!

Let's get that 460 project going and ready for the next wekfest!!

The show was coo and the car's were great!! but after being there for 8+ hours it takes all the energy away from you even after downing 3 can's of NOS!! I told myself I wouldn't mess with those energy drinks but fell victim to it once again lol.
