Pics from the NSXP Bay Area Caravan

[Dhalsim]

Hey my Bay Area buddies. I just wanted to make a thread where we could share some of our pics from our 2-Day caravan to NSXPO. I hope I wasn't the only one taking pics.

 

[Dhalsim]

OK I finally got a decent amount of sleep and worked on a few of the pics. I hope everyone enjoys. Let me know if you want me to send you any of these or if you remember a pic that I took but didn't post here.






Dam we're a good looking bunch

My wife and I loved this dog........if we didn't have 3 already we might have brought her along

At the San Andreas fault line

some cows that were on the road

endless stretches of road

Lake Isabella

lunch break

after hours and hours of driving.........Vegas is finally sighted in the distance

this has to be where the aliens land

there is a very funny story behind this pic

I don't know what his problem was but Mike kept pointing to something in the sky that he saw..........

I don't know.......I don't see anything....................

OK...cmon.....seriously??.............inside the Findlay service bay??

Hey, great shots Roger! Looked like everyone made it home alright.

 

[FuryNSX]

Thanks, Dhalsim, for taking us along your adventure with these pictures. The shots and captions are fun-tastic. It was great meeting some of the NoCal group, and looking forward to seeing you guys again sometime in the future.

What can I say? Good looking dog.

This was the condition of my lip after 2 days of hard driving and a VERY unforgiving speed bump at the Aria hotel.

A few pics of some of our locals on the track

the point of shame

Great pics, Roger. I was cracking up with all the "pointing Mike" pics:tongue::tongue::tongue: Oh, and Jack's Ace of Spades.

Oh, why are the wheels of everyone's track pics blurred but mine look like theire standing still? Must have used a super fast shutter speed to take my pics, huh? :redface:

Thanks for the pics. Make sure let me borrow your CF card next time we meet up.

Great pics. Great memories.

Was the autocross event publicized at all? I would've done it, but I had already promised the missus a trip to Hoover Dam. I didn't even realize it was happening until I had already left the track.

It was listed as the "Car Control Clinic" in the schedule, but I was expecting that to be more instructional and classroom based. I only heard that it would be configured as an autocross setup (thankfully) a day or two before. It was really an informal event, in that it was really open to whomever wanted to put their car out there, and each run wasn't "officially" timed.

Nice pictures indeed. Can someone post a highlighted route map that you took?

 

[PHOEN$X]

Great pictures!

That photo looks familiar. :biggrin:

First and foremost I want to thank Jack & Yolanda for all the work they did to make the caravan to LV so enjoyable.

Second, here are my unorganized pics of the day-2 leg:

And last but not least, Deb & I had fun hanging out with all of you!

 

[NSXAMG996TT]

Thanks for sharing the photos Roger!

You guys (gal) are truly a fun bunch to hang out with all weekend.

 

[quack]

sweet pics! and lots of them. love the UFO sighting.

 

[EuroBoutique]

thanks for sharing Roger for those of us who couldn't attend! Looks like a fun event for sure - I was stuck at SEMA most of the week and only saw a total of 2 NSX's there. One was a yellow one parked outside and a one that had a Ferrari body kit (also yellow). I will have to share those pics later...

I love the UFO caption...hahaha

In my opinion, this should have been the "Best of Show" but then, what do I know! It was there the entire event.

I liked this body kit too except for the rear end. But i believe this car won best interior.

 

[EuroBoutique]

OMG tht car is so sick from every angle but the rear....anyone have pics of the interior?

I think if they did a better job restyling the rear to be more 458 Italia it would be a perfect. I love all the aspects of this kit - is this the Veilside kit?


rick

 

[yojack1]

It had 19s and 20s but your right, the tail lights need to be changed and maybe some lexan lenses over the headlights. The fit, finish and paint were top notch! It's the perfect color for that kind of body. I liked it! Maybe I'll...........
:wink:

Roger, great pics, I really like the ones of the UFO sightings. :biggrin:

Jack you delivered as promised. The route that we took was a drive that I will never forget.

Thanks to everyone who took the drive with us and attended NSXPO 2010.

Yes, it's a veilside kit. Jack is right the fit and finish is top notch. But, I'm not a fan of the kit, especially the headlights and or any kit that takes away from the original lines of the NSX.

Check that... any body kit that try's to make the NSX look like a Ferrari, is so wrong.

I'm with you. I respect that car, but I'm not a fan. It's just too far removed -- it almost has a "kit car" vibe to it, albeit of significantly higher quality. Too much taken away from what makes an NSX an NSX.

For a minute there, I thought that you went crazy with mods and a paint job on Yolanda's car.

NOTE: the rear fender looks similar to a Vette's.
