San Diego Extreme Autofest

[93STLTH]

Held at Qualcomm stadium, Extreme Autofest drew over 2500 cars and had vendors, a drift exhibition and plenty of models. I continued my recent run of good luck and placed 2nd in the Mitsubishi class. The Mitsu class was almost all Evos and Eclipses, so to have my Dodge finish 2nd was quite a shock.
Here's the pics I took. I didn't get much of a chance to wander around and photograph since I was doing the show by myself and didn't want to leave the car unattended for too long, but I got a few good ones. First, a few of my car on display...

and a few of Apollo's '99 wide body. He works for Extreme Autofest, so his car was only on display and not eligible for awards.

I'd put my money on Jojo. He was doing shows before I even started modding.

Usually I hate anything that isn't a single color but I really like that paint job, especially the way the cyan color blends the white and blue.

[j2k4]

Great pics!

[IPD]

it's a decent attempt at a widebody, but even the graphics can't cover up the fact that it ruins all the stock lines. it's too busy.

[tazman]

Glad you did great at that show, Tom!

[TT4ME]

Wow, it was nice to meet you at NG. These pics are amazing... to say the least.

Looks like fun!!

[Nationalmilkman]

If it wasn't so crazy expensive to live out there I'd be all over it just for the car scene. Still on a win streak there Tom, that's awesome.

I'd rather do an NG over a show like this any day. I had my car searched before entering and they made me throw away the sodas I had in my cooler. It's loud, with DJ's blasting hip hop from all sides and there's a big line of cars trying to leave at the end of the show. But, Qualcomm is only 6 miles from my place and there are cars attending from Arizona and Nevada, so, I guess it could be worse.

[MADMarc]

Cool shots. Man that's a lot of bling on some of those cars. Is there even a tire on that camaro or is it all wheel?! :P

Thanks Martin! Yeah, it's expensive to live here, but the weather usually can't be beat, I live 20 min. from the Pacific ocean and an hour from the desert, there are great mountain roads to drive and the women are mostly jaw dropping gorgeous. I think I'll stay a little bit longer... :)
