My Nationals Thread *56K Beware*

phoonTy

Truckless. For now.
So here I am, sitting in the hotel. All the Sys and Tys are gone... well, except for maybe Zacks. It's so lonely out there. :rotf:

First of all, my hats off to the Nats Planning/Organizing crew. :tup: What else can I say? Great event!

It was nice to finally be able to put a real face to all the names/screen names. I'd try to list everyone, but I know I'd miss someone, so yeah, nice to meet everyone I met. :tup: Thanks for making the trip with and without your truck for those like me, who's trucks are riding the jack stands proud. :lol:

For those that didn't make it, well, you missed this photo opp:

(if anyone needs a higher res... haha, too bad, you weren't here ;) )

To see so many trucks in one place was surreal for me. It sure beats the 12-15 we had in Denver 3 years ago. :tup:

Like I've said in so many other topics, it was awesome to see Robert's Sy in person and see how he does things. I can't say it enough... That turbo is friggen huge! It was cool to see it make a few passes. Too bad he didn't break into the 8's. Guess Hoovers still get to hold on to the US title of fastest AWD truck.

It was awesome to see John's truck too. Sadly, I missed getting it on film as he drove to the track. :rant: I got some good footage but I missed it. I think Jimmy's truck was in the way of the camera :lol:


Special thanks to Jimmy for the ride. :tup: Thanks to your truck, my wife is officially hooked on SyTy's :woot: That thing is an animal!

All of my photos can be seen HERE

Thanks everyone for a truly memorable experience! Now, who's in for SyTy Nats '07...Denver? :rotf: Let's see you guys with the quick trucks run at 5280' ;) :tup:

It was good to meet you too. :tup: You're truck is nice. Congrats on the stereo award :lol: Told you that you would win by default. :rotf:

I might as well use this thread to post up some of my better pics:

I like this one, even if my camera doesn't do so well in low light situations:

I would have gotten more pictures, but using a video camera and a regular digital at the same time is kinda hard. :lol:

I'm going to take a stab that that "tagged" decal is from the mischevious hands of Sean Morris or his entourage ??lol :lol:
...........and it reads "OPTION magazine" ??
They were stuck all over the hotel...even inside the elevators.
My camera is SO screwed up from getting dropped I can't upload ANY pix to my puter..... :rant:
...........Cams truck was sweet for sure ! :tup:

Before I left with my truck, i went inside to find Sean or Andrew to give them a severe ass kicking... not really, actually was going to see if they were doing anything tonight. My guess is no as they have a flight in the a.m.

Some nice pix, thanks. Cam's truck is amazing, i agree.

I wish the group shot (each year) was taken from a higher angle. You can't see many of the trucks and it's too bad. :( It might also be a better option to put them more in a "V" pattern with the widest part nearest to the camera.

Aw hell, I'll be there next year to help out! ;)

You should've seen the look on his face when my son climbed on his seats and stepped on the center console.....you'd think someone just backed into it. Seriously.

LOL. You can tell by looking at the truck that it is a KID-FREE ZONE.

Re: My Nationals Thread *56K Beware*

From that first pic it doesn't look like very many Sy's were there, am I wrong or was there only 5-10?

Possibly. Not every syty is in the picture. I kinda started to fall in love with the Typhoons.... I do every year. So much room!

we were going to do this...but once all the trucks are already parked and ready for being teched...its not worth doing.

We'll need to arrange a group shot in an empty parking lot next year - i have some ideas for it...don't worry.
