What a great year! Wow! I'm sitting down in front of my study table, typing this article while thinking about all the events and meets I've been to in 2011. Yea~ I know it sucks that the End of the World is coming soon, and because it is, it's time for me to choose the meets and car shows I've been to that were memorable and enjoyable. I've plugged in my external hard drive to see what's been done throughout this year and holy hell, the hard drive decided to shut down on me and all the saved files disappeared. Luckily, my brain had a back-up storage system that only saved automotive related events and not school or friends, which might make me sound like an ass, but for my blog and you guys, it's something to definitely appreciate. I took some time to think about how many I've been to and the amount really did exceed my expectations. If I counted correctly and only included the ones that were automotive related, I've been to 150+ car shows + meets. My aspirations were not to attend the most meets and become competitive with other bloggers, but it was that unexplainable force that pulled me into a world that I couldn't escape. No matter how much I tried, avoiding the temptations to drive my slammed Scion tC to anywhere in Southern California was not happening. That's how much I loved and still love what I do as a hobby and will continue on for myself and for all you fans out there that truly appreciate Night Import.

Event Coverage: 7Stock Coverage
September 19, 2010
On Saturday, I had to cover 2 events and a photoshoot for my blog and juststance.com. Really long day, but I had a lot of fun. As you guys know, 7stock was going on at Irvine and it was huge! Most of the shows that are dedicated for a certain company has a good turnout. For the Scion event that happend at Longo, more than 300 cars showed up and the result for 7stock was pretty much the same. The whole parking lot of Mazda North America Corporate HQ Center was full of Mazda's. Almost all the rotaries in SoCal showed up. Even people from out of states came as well.
I took photos of rotaries that were modded to my liking because there were too many cars and half of them were just stock. I took a different step when editing the photos for this event. I added a lot of vibrance and it came out ... pretty bad :) but hope you guys like it.

Special Coverage: Bisimoto Luxury Exotic Car Meet
September 13, 2010
Night-Import: Photography by William Lee

After the two events, I went to City of Industry for the Bisimoto meet to take some photos and do my final coverage of the day. I was really exhausted but managed to stay until all the cars came in. Pictures are all angled out and look weird so sorry about that :)
Anyways, big thanks to Randy (Sale Manager for Bisimoto) for hooking it up with the VIP pass. First time talking to him and we had a long conversation about business and stuff. Awesome guy to talk to so if you're planning to get products from Bisimoto, talk to Randy.
I also met some photographers; from MotorMavens and Honda-Wired.
Cool guys as well.

Special Coverage: Skunk2 Unmeet 1.0
September 12, 2010
Night-Import: Photography by William Lee

Out of all the meets that went on during Saturday, I personally think the Skunk2 unmeet was the best. Sick cars and awesome food. I don't want to forget about the awesome people I talked to as well.
Met the president of Fckyourcrew and people from Simple Wheel Werks.
A lot of people supported this meet, so the turn out was better than I thought.
Took some photos of the rides that came to the meet.

Greddy Fest 2 Coverage
September 7, 2010
Wsup guys!
Hope everyone had a great long weekend :)
I was pretty much exhausted throughout this whole week because of Shakotan.
I don't know why, but I slept like crazy, which normally doesn't happen.
Anyways, because I was on a vacation with my family on Sunday, I didn't have a chance to go and take photos for Greddy Fest 2.
However, my man Sean from LEDmod took some photos for me.
At least I can share some photos so that's good.
