Holy butts. Wow. Great job every one. I'm still in shock that I was part of such an awesome weekend. Thanks to the sponsors, thanks to the alums, thanks to the students (You guys kicked butt on your working assignments and helping setup/clean), and thanks to everyone else who came.
It is such a blast to see all of you guys I never get to see, even if it's only for about 45 seconds at a time before I run off to put out another fire.
Thanks to my officers James, Chip an Matt. I couldn't have done it without you. Thank you Jake and Goodspeed for listening to me ramble on about ideas about the show. Thank you Matthew and Zach for helping out so much even though you're not students anymore.
I really appreciate everything all of you did to help. This was a team effort and while more work may have been done by some people, everyone deserves praise for their hard work.
We are still completely scrambled (My house still has no furniture in it and I can't walk through the kitchen without my feet getting stuck), but we will have some official numbers and photos soon for everyone.
We had over 200 cars at the show (I believe around 189 registered and paid) and we had a pile of prizes to hand out. The Forza booth was amazing and I hope we have a chance to do it again in the future, or should I say the future officers? The speakers, handheld radios, bullhorn, EZ up, tables and everything we used are all owned by MM now so future officers don't have to find them or borrow them. James and I still have a few things to buy for the guys next year before we hand it over. I can't wait to see the photos and videos, because I certainly never got a chance to look at any of the cars there.
The cruise was nothing short of bananas. I never did count, but I'd guess we had 30+ cars.

We had SO MANY PEOPLE for dinner. I love seeing so many people want to hang out. The party at my place was a blast and to see such friendship and fun between everyone made my heart swell. The autocross today was so cool and we had a ton of current students out there tearing it up. I'll post stuff from that as it comes out, but in the mean time, please enjoy this video of our hired driver, Tom Corona whipping El Encierro around the autocross course.

His times were actually really REALLY good, by the way. I know he ran a 67 second lap one time.
