Ah the good 'ole days. Funny how in '06, most of the cars there were 92-99's. 07-08 that flipped pretty dramatically...
Bye Bye: RIP sandrock

I was a lurker to the forum back in those days. Actually, I was lurking for 5 years before I signed up in '08.
That looked like so much fun! I always wanted to attend the WCBF's. Pictures like these are what made me really want to go to a meet. Even today though, that would be a heck of a haul, and don't know if I'd have the time or money.
But, wow, these pictures seem like a whole lifetime ago.
Kyle was on to something at the Michigan meet this year. Looking back at all the old meets, I think that it would be cool to have a section on this forum that is nothing but pics and vids from meets.

I second a picture repository. Lol. It's club history.
I was also a lurker back then. But I especially remembered the videos. They helped spark my coming back to 3800s after some time away to dabble in German lux and F and W bodies.

What a blast from the past seeing some of those cars/people. I hate that I never made it to any of the huge meets that this club used to produce. LMAO @ Barney! I love that he's the "mascot" on BPro, though I never frequent there for some reason. Whose white SSEi is that with the GA plates? I never knew I had any local members when I was down there...

2006 was an awesome year for WCBF. And I had my new to me 1997 SSEi, that I still drive daily.
You were the first person to let me ride shotgun down the track on test/tune day that year... good memories for sure.

That's the meet that convinced me, just from pictures, that a meet was worth going to! I didn't actually get to attend any until SEBF '08, but WCBF is still beyond my reach, 7, almost 8 years later.
A '99 SSEi was my dream car at that point in time...with me only having an '89 LE.
Time...really flies. I'm not even close to being some of the original members, and even I've been here for almost a decade.
So many members' life events have been shared...and it's just been really great to be apart of.
Good to see so many of the vets are still here.
