Hey my So Cal Peeps

Whats "So Cal Ecotecs"? Loving the sigs that I'm seeing. I reconize some of the screen names too. Very cool.

Made a video over the weekend from one of our lates meets. I was bummed cause most of my redline buds had to bail last minute. But did get a few other of my GM peeps out. Wind was crazy but we did ok.

Check out the very end of the vid. Thats the good stuff, lol. Trying to do more shots like that. If you guys are interested in doing some fly bys on film, etc, lets hook up. Next shoot I should have a few more GTO's, TAs and some more LSJ power.

((Oh, this is just a teaser, not the final product. I havent added all my ebrake slides, lol))

SoCal Ecotecs is something that I threw out there as an idea for all of us to get together and be something...everyone voted on a name and a font for our decals and all that jazz..we now have a website (thanks to Doc) and emails also..the site isnt completely up because we need someone to build it and some more meets to get enough pics (hotrodcop) to post...but slowly and surely we are coming together and with the addition to CASol's shop in the future we will be a BEAST!

not a bad video, good selection of music. Wish we could have got some shots in the crest/angeles hwy's. If i were you i would block out those plate #'s for a just in case. Im suprised you didnt run across any cops(except the one truck) becuase i always see CHP in there

Hey, I like critique. Shots of literally the hwy? Like scenic shots? I was actually bummed cause I didnt get half the flybys and shots I wanted. Wanted to put the tripod on the out side of one of the banked curves and catch the cars wizzn by, etc.

Coppers were ok, they were too busy with a motor cycle crash on the front side of the hill actually. We were pretty good.

I still have tapes from other cameras that have not come in yet. I'll do a version 2.0 this weekend I'm sure.

Thanks for the heads up.

I'll have to keep tabs on you guys. We should join forces and what not. There is a really great toys for tots type of car show coming up here in December. I'll have to hit you guys up. Lots of attention and lots of exotics.

Im sure everything will go good, and if you like, once you establish the business I can help you t im with out in getting a business loan to buy that guy out, just an idea for later, but im with cblt12, I feel the wallet getting smaller

Whats up Ilmodc, Sorry to hear you didnt get the footage you wanted that weekend, you have to let us know for next time maybe we can join you out there. I should be out there in Northridge next friday, so ill try and make the meet.
