First off, let me apologize about the pics. I forgot to charge the battery the night before and only had a little left. Im also still not sure if I like this camera. It seems to take blurry shots even when I try my hardest to take good shots. This event isnt the best to take pics either, people were always in the way.

Like I said in the Gen. Chat topic about Crystal Cove, this was the first time I had ever been and I was amazed. There were so many cars coming and going it was mind boggling. Tons of 360s, Gallardos, Vettes, 50 or so E46 M3s in various stages of tuning, tons of 911s, Vipers, etc, etc, etc. The cars were spread out over a parking lot that was easily larger than a football field. Cars everywhere coming and going. I missed a ton of cars including two Vector WX3s on our way out.

I went with my friend and his uncle who used to be a race engineer for Dan Gurney. We meet one of Gurney's kids that my friends uncle knew, plus some other guys he used to work with, so expect a photo tour of Gurney's shop and cars soon

(if they let me take photos that is)

I would have stayed longer but I had to get home to go to the USC football (American) game which was cool. I got shit faced and saw two F117A fighter planes fly over the stadium, those are some bad ass planes! It was a long and tiring day but tons of fun!

Like I also said in the Gen Chat topic, the show will continue at a different location. Gurney's kid also said they were going to bring some of the collection by including a GP2 car. If anyone here wants to go, let me know and we can meet up

Maybe I could find a better photographer LOL
