Before I go further, let's give a big Shout Out to Solomon (solo) and Ryan (flipside909) for their contribution to meet gatherings over the past year. Their efforts to support the Lexus community are enormus and much appreciated by all of us. Without them, events such as these would not be as successful. Note: Solo was sick before, during and after this meet.
He is THE MAN when it comes to organizing all of the JDMTheory meets so please wish him well.

There were soooo many awards given out to the crew I am having a hard time tracking it all. If I missed anyone or incorrect description, please let me know via PM and I will update.

I arrived at Safeway around 6:20 AM to help out, after going inside the store when I came out I saw Henry, Ryan and Mark (car not in picture) So our day started really early...


Here is my car, Henry and Ryan's cars.


Once in garage, Solo set us up with a prime parking location. We are in the very front. It is hard to see in the below picture, but the 3 LS's are in front. Lexus Corp LS460, Henry and Mark's LS460L were a sight to see.






Brakes on the Corp LS460

i am no pro photographer, and the lighting was pretty bad (and i didn't have a tripod) so a lot of the pics came out blurry. i will just post some pics of my car and others that are "clear" here...

ryan's new clean ride. love the rear offset, very aggressive


chris has really come a long way with his car. his new wheels and brakes are awesome. i got a good lesson on the brakes, very good stuff!


lexus corp's ls460. what can i say, great work by clark! have to complain about the offsets though, that's what put the car one step away from perfect imho


mark's ls460l is another great example of the lwb done right. hehee, he needs brakes


and how can i miss solo with his vip style is300? (sorry solo, i just can't say it's vip car with that platform ) can't wait for the next project

here are some pics of my car. a lot of you already know but some don't, i got a ls460l couple months ago and have been building it since. nothing crazy, just full wald kits (lwb), jp spoiler, trafficstar 22" rtv, brembo 15" brakes, datasystem air suspension controller







show case the wheel and brakes a bit




able to park in between lexus corp's car and solo's car, i was truly honored
