Vegas 2005 - [Vegas group photo now added]

[jdk_ii]

Just returned back from Vegas.

I had buckets of work-work, and it came down to the wire at 5pm Wednesday. :rolleyes:

Good to meet some folks again, and new persons behind the screen name.

Mega snaps up to Keith Hart for his continued effort to coordiate these meets
and all those that cooridinated the events.

Props to Jim (of Vegas) for letting me ride shotgun and picking me up for the drag races,
Dave Koos for the lift back from the MK2 dinner, and SupraSport for hosting the meet (and getting a lift to the dyno).

New to meet
Steve "Green Jelly Bean" Sidman - good to know the man with the great sense of humor.
Dave "Crab Legs" Shepard
Zank-master
HGOCEHG
Robert from El Paso
Dave Koos
Tony Ortega
Robert & Ramsey from Miami
Shawn Pease
Dave (Agatha)
Aaron Garney (good to know someone else has to put up with fabrication BS)
Robert Pina
John Nygun
Jim from Vegas
And certainly several others, which jet lag has fried my brain cells.

Jim & Shawn ... it was good getting to meet both of you. Shawn, again I'm so sorry about the theft at the Luxor - what a crappy way to start what was supposed to be a great weekend. Regardless, it was great seeing everyone again.

Jim - it was GREAT to meet you in Vegas.

Next year in Vegas we need a Chip Foose shirt for Sidman and he can just pose for pictures with each car. I figure if we make each pic just a little blurry you may not be able to tell it isn't the real Chip. :)

Thanks again to all the MkIIs that showed up again this year. You guys impress me each year with the quality of your Supras!

Keith Hart
Still tired from SILV05

[KurtW85]

O yea I met Keith H. too, I was the kid who asked you to take a pic. while on top of your SUV. Pic Turned out great, poster material. :good:

THANKS Again
till next year

[KeithH]

Gotta love the rental. :) Was able to haul all of my stuff around since it no longer fits in the Supra. I'm going to need to start trailering my Supra down just so I can haul everything.

We should get together in another year... oh wait we will. See you all at SILV06!

Courtesy of Jay Balducci, here is the Mk2 dinner group photo from Vegas '05 - the evening after the show and shine.

I don't have all the names and I'm not even going to try to put them all on there without help ... but if someone would like to give it a shot - email me: supra@internetmediastudio.com or PM me here on the forum, and I'll put everyone's names on the bottom of the photo so y'all can ID people.

Missing from the photo is Leslie Grover and Shawn Pease, who perfectly timed their pee break/smoke break for when we took the group shot. (Damn, I thought only women went to the bathroom together ... hahaha). Also not pictured is Alan Goodsite, who is behind the camera taking the picture I believe. Apparently Alex chose right then to go to the bathroom too.

The full size image, (color balanced and corrected in photoshop) is located here: http://www.internetmediastudio.com/temp/mk2_dinner_05.jpg

Have a great weekend everyone.
