I just got home about an hour ago. Man that drive sucks, but I cant complain cause this whole trip was awesome. Our cruise in the desert was the funnest thing i have done in along time. Doing 80 on those roads playing tag with everyone was great. It was great to meet everyone. I like being able to put names with faces and learning everyones back stories and such. Thanks to everyone who helped arrange this. I will upload pics soon. I hope to see some other pics and vids too!

Just got back home, the traffic on the way back was MISERABLE!!! 6+ hours to get back from Vegas. 
I have to echo what's already been said in that I'd like to thank Phil's8 for planning this amazing meet, it really is one of the highlights of the summer.
It was tons of fun seeing old friends, meeting new faces, and enjoying a fun weekend with fellow rotor-heads.
Scremn8 is right, for those that couldn't make it, you REALLY did miss out so make sure not to make the same mistake next year. Start saving your pennies now.
I've got pictures on three different cameras to go through but look for a picture thread tomorrow.

Everyone knows Black is the fastest color!
I'll be putting up some photos soon! Thanks to everyone who planned this event. It was killer!
I found the limits of my fuel pump on the drive Saturday. Spending 10+ minutes above 7,000 RPM's pretty much toasted the pump motor. It was overheating most of the way home.
Jedi, good lord man I don't know where you put that beer but from what I gather it didn't stay there long. Bowling afterwards was fun too!

Thanks to everyone who came......I hope you enjoyed yourselves. Some of Nevada's back roads are fun. It will take a year to replenish all the beer that was consumed at the Hoff Brau Saturday evening (Jedi has a hollow leg).
Utah was represented - I hope you guys had a good time. It was fun meeting you guys.
The Arizona crew blew into town and for the first time Easy's car did not blow an manifold.
The Cali crew........Well they decided that Nevada had too much beer and they proceeded to try and make it in short supply.
Nevada will again sponsor this next year and we are hoping to do it better.
I wish to thank AJ and Armin from the Nevada crew for assisting me and making all those needed phone calls that I would forget to make, keeping the crew in order and leading us to our destinations. Thanks to Gil for getting the rooms for everyone.

@Jedi - Just an FYI - 6 liters of beer is about 13.4 lbs.
Here's some more nutritional facts about 6 liters of regular beer.

Dang Ross! 1:30! That sucks man. Im sorry. I almost didnt make it. My 8 died about 30 miles into Utah. I think it just over heated cause i just let it sit with the hood open for about 5 min, then it started up. I pulled off at the next station and sprayed the whole engine bay down. Didnt have any problems after that. I need to do something about the cooling system.. :S

holy crap Cesar! That's a lot of beer I consumed.
I kinnda remember the coonversation with the German guy in the bathroom about how shocked he was that I put down 6 liters of beer.
He kept telling us to go to Oktoberfest.
