    I'm a little bummed that my wagon was down on power, but at least now I have good reason to tear into it and do a thorough checkup.

    Regardless, it was great seeing/meeting everyone! Many thanks to the TopSpeed crew for putting up with us for the day.

    I'm going to try to frequent the board more often... maybe get out to some local events as well. It's been a while since I've seen so many nice cars in one place.

    Thanks again to everyone for a great day.

    - Jonathan

    Great cars... everyone had very nice rides. Honestly, not a single car on the lot that I did not like.

    I'm very impressed with Top Speed. Nice shop, great staff, and most importantly they know their stuff. Look forward to the next meet.

    Yes great turnout folks! Big thanks to TopSpeed and the admin here setting up this event! Glad to meet everyone wish I didn't have to head out so early.

    Best for the LGT was about 200/200 and the best for the GR WAS 250/280. Thanks again for a great event and look forward to seeing everyone next time.

    Yea very nice turnout! Thanks Alex and Brett for throwing the shin dig and Top Speed for hosting. The only thing that could have made it better was seeing Mike hit 500 hp and of course scantily clad women strapping the cars down, but overall great get together, this community was way past due for one!

    Great G2G. I had no idea the Subaru crowd was so large.

    It was cool meeting all you guys today.

    Scott (siegelracing), it was good seeing you again. Good luck with the baby to you and your wife.

    Matt (2pt5RS), what a small world. I hope the WebMD deal works out for you. I'm sure I'll see you at the track soon.

    Hey, i went with my buddy who asked me to come along. I had the only fking Honda there.. Apparently, he didn't tell me it was WRX dyno day, I thought it was just dyno day in general... Nice-ass cars..

    Here is some footage I got... I joined this forum just to post this up.. Hope I don't get flamed too hardcore...

    SLEEPER WRX made 429whp
    And GTO made 391whp and 380tq

    Good meeting everybody yesterday. Maybe next time I will get to sleep before I come out. I was a little disappointed with 243whp. Taking it back next week for a protune.

    nothing crazy happened like pistons launching through the block, but we were all smoked out as oil burned and sprayed out of his catch can. Sad to see it go like that but as he stated it was about time for a rebuild
