On the morning of January 24th, 2016, we hosted a third annual meet in Lafayette Reservoir, California. This event follows the same theme as the previous "Reunion Meet" gathering. Though this time, it was more of a send-off gathering as the New Initial D Movie trilogy: Legend 3 will finally be released on February 6th and as far as we know, there is no plan to release any more Initial D franchise after this.

This meet had the biggest turnout in the history of Initial D World. The meet was supposed to start at 8:00am. But many have already arrived before 7:30am. By 9:00am, the entire parking lot was full. (450 parking spots!) We even used all the metered parking spots. At peak, we counted 450 cars and over 800 people. That's not counting the ones that had to turn away. It was absolutely impressive. The turnout completely took us by surprise.

We are thankful that most of attendees were on their best behaviors. And at the same time, we are regretful that many couldn't get into the parking lot. Once again, thank you sincerely for making it and showing your passion in Initial D. Thank you.

There are levels of survival we are prepared to accept. However, the relevant issue is whether or not you are ready to accept that this will become the greatest Idolmaster forum in this Initial D world. awesome.gif

The red one is Highschool DxD (it says it right on the car, man), and the white one is Sora no Otoshimono.

Once I get my pics edited I'll throw them up in this thread.

Throw more pics of that Black NSX... oh god- *faints*

Finally finished editing and uploading, which apparently I messed up on Facebook (the gallery appears on the event page but not my own page...eh, whatever!). So at least on IDW I'll have a chance to put up the original photos and comment on each one individually. Really can't be fucked to do that on FB. laugh2.gif Let's do this!

7:17 AM
>the line is real
"Oh shit... oh shit, there's already a line and the meet doesn't start until 8!? What. WELP." Jump in the car, beeline it over to the reservoir aaand...yeah. The line was real. Sat idling in line for at least half an hour, it was craaaaaaazy! Here's a pic from when I actually got to the hill leading up into the parking area. Two SUV drivers cut everyone off right at the entrance rather than wait in line. Both were unrelated to the IDW meet, so typical residents. rolleyes.gif

Crazy stuff (by the way, my clock is 15 minutes fast, so it was 8:10). Once I got in things were much better though. Got a parking spot--a good one too, thanks PandaApex--and started to wander around. Let the random pictures begin!

My parking spot, facing the hero cars, with a shot of the other side of the lot showing that we basically took over the entire parking lot. Yep...it was insane. I hear the lady in the Lexus drove by and shit-talked us. Hilarious coming from someone who made an illegal right from the left lane, cutting off two lanes of traffic!

Hero car shot! That STi actually should've switched with the cars out of the shot to its right, a red MX-5 and a red EG6, but eh. We were also missing the MONSTER EVO-IV because he came late and the park closed the gates, but what're ya gonna do.

Respect for the classics. There were actually quite a few classic Japanese cars in attendance, so that made it worth it for me. Don't get me wrong, I like modern stuff...but my heart's in the 70s.

Classic Celica GT. I almost owned one of these! I still kinda regret not doing so! This one was showroom immaculate, but not my favorite car of the event. I'll get to that in a few.

Celica GT-FOUR that was ahead of me in the line to get up the hill. We didn't get this car in the US, so I can totally appreciate somebody having one. That's props, whoever you are. I saw what you did, and I approve. Thanks for doing this instead of a GT-R or something.

Japan-only Lexus motor in an AE86? More likely than you think. PandaApex could tell you more about this than I can, though. Lexus history isn't my forté.

THIS. This was my absolute favorite car at the whole event. Sparkling clean first-gen Z31, J-spec, even has the headlight louvers. I cannot get enough of this car. Only one complaint, really...

The R33 is apparently someone very near where I live right now and I had no idea. It's weird, though...seeing all these GT-Rs doesn't really do it for me anymore. It's like, "Oh, a GT-R. Cool." Not, "HOLY SHIT GT-RS OMGGGGG!!" like it used to be. I've been desensitized by J, clearly. laugh2.gif

Pretty cool meet up, lot of neat look cars over there, especially that Capri XR2.

Btw, was that really a 6th gen Celica GT4? I was under the impression they weren't sold in the West (AFAIK the last AWD Celica we got was the 5th gen, the last one with pop up headlights).

True, I was just a bit taken aback when you mentioned it was a GT4, since I was under the impression that the car was only available with RHD and that it couldn't be legally imported to the U.S. yet due to that 25 year rule (first one came out in 1993). Nevertheless, it is a pretty nice car regardless, it's a shame that Toyota stopped making the Celica.

It's probably a conversion, just like there are people here who have SVXes with the Japanese transmissions. That someone would go through the trouble really makes me appreciate it. So yes, it's a GT-FOUR. Yes, we never got that car here. Yes, it's awesome.

That's definitely more dedicated than this one guy I used to know who simply made the exterior look like the GT4.

Was great going to the event, was amazed at what cars came in general.
Really liked that Back to the Eighties sticker on the red Corolla coupe, and somehow I was in Don's shot of our cars. Was really glad I came, since I even got some minor inspiration from a guy who had a very well modified LS400.

Kinda annoyed about the people who were being pricks, especially that red RX-8. Kinda wish they got booted from the event as soon as that happened, because his stupid revving got a few other people to do it.

Next time there will be more active enforcement. A rules notice and agreement upon entering the lot, and a few people who are charged with enforcing those rules throughout the lot during the meet.

At least, that is what I would recommend. You could pay for private security if you wanted. For such a short time and a relatively small event, you could do it for a decent price.

On January 24th 2016, we hosted our 3rd annual meet ( http://facebook.com/1629012720680152 ) in Lafayette Reservoir, CA. The attendance of the event was absolutely wild. In all of our past events, we always create a Facebook event page for it. The number of people said they will go never reflected the true attendance every time. In fact, we had a simple formula to gauge the approximate attending rate. Number of people say they are going divided by three for persons and divided by four for the cars.

Our little equation was completely broken on Sunday morning. The night before the big meet, we passed the 1,000 going mark on the event page. We thought, OK we are going to have about 350 people and 250 cars. When I get to the reservoir at 6:50am, there were already 15 cars and at least two dozen people. And the flow of traffic never stopped until we had to close the entrance gate on people. Majority of attendees showed up before 8am. By 9:05am, we reached full capacity. All 450 parking spots were filled and we estimated 800 people were present.

Some people, unfortunately had to turn away at the entrance. However, some did find parking near the reservoir and made the hike up the trail and joined the rest of us. We applaud for such passion these people have for Initial D. We sincerely apologize to those that got turn away. It never crossed our mind that our gathering would get this big. We wholeheartedly appreciate everyone for driving all the distance and on their best behaviors that day. Thank you everyone!!

We have compiled all the coverages of that day into one post for your convenience. Be sure to check out all the video footage and photos below!

Even though it's an internet meet-up, you'd think that grown men would act their age in person. There's a time and place for bro-culture...

...ICE ME BRO!!1 ICE ME WHILE THE EUROBEATZ ARE ON THE RADIO AND MY REV-LIMITER'S POPPIN' IT'S CHERRY BRO!!1 I SAID DO IT NOW BRO!!1...

...and that place is a college frat / some rodeo-barn in Texas in xiao's backyard. But so early in the morning and in a quiet little park, that's just not having any common sense.

Tessou's right on the mark~ Cheap security and a host at the entry of the meet requiring people to register while he/she informs the guests (in case they lack that common sense hemisphere in their cerebrums) of the rules and the consequences thereafter of breaking them, ie. security's gonna escort your loopy muffler if you act like it's Race Wars.

The idiocy exists because the car culture still has the toxic element that we all have to deal with at meets like this. There's always that guy that decides that he has to mark his territory by being a showoff at an event where nobody fucking cares.

I mean, seriously. Why rev up an RX-8 when there are GT-Rs and at least one NSX in the same lot? That's like me revving my Ninja when there's a ZX-14R next to it.
