AUTOFASHION’S SFWEKFEST TRIP DAY 3

March 8, 2010 by Special K

The final day arrives and we do what we came here to do, WEK’FEST! After getting only 3ish hours of sleep after a night of tasty food and alcohol, we woke up to start prepping for the show. Thankfully we brought down most of the stuff the night before so it wasn’t too painful of a process of setting up. We got to our designated spot, which was perfect as it was right next to the entrance to the area, and put up what we had and arranged the cars. At this point, cars just kept coming through and all the fumes from all the cars in the complex just kept gathering and started to give everyone headaches. This is when I realized it was going to be a loooooooong day.

I went up to the first floor of the parking garage a couple times to put stuff away in the rentals and everytime the line to get in doubled in size. Literally, the event itself was beyond packed. The line never stopped all the way up to about a hour or so before it ended. This was only because the Fire Marshalls decided to stop more people from entering the already packed structure. I’m just glad I took pictures a bit early, any later and it would’ve been impossible to do it.

The quality of cars were what we expected from this kind of event, especially being the first event of the year. Everything you could’ve imagined was fully represented. VIP cars, Euros, Honda’s, Ol’ School and everything in between, nothing was left out. There were some cars out there that I had to do double takes on because I couldn’t believe the quality, time and effort that went into the build. It was truly a sight to see. Like in the previous posts we brought out only 3 of our cars. But, thankfully, Calvin Wan brought out his car that filled up another spot and it was a nice addition the line-up that we had. Thanks again to Calvin for deciding to put it with us.

But the weekend finally had to come to an end. We won 3^rd place VIP with the Q45 we brought… but didn’t stick around for the awards to actually grab it. We just wanted to get on the road back down to San Diego. All in all, it was a good weekend. Spending time out of So.Cal and spending it with people who we respect and can call our family, nothing can come close to it. I can’t stress this enough, but a big THANK YOU to everyone that came out with us and made this weekend memorable. It’s still early in 2010, let’s keep making a statement and enjoy the times we have with one another. Thank you and good night.
