Are there more meets like this one locally, or just this one once a year at Griots?
I really wished I could have made it.

By the looks of it, each person gets one stall to setup in?

How was the weather, it rained just about all day in Auburn.

Aaarrrggggggggg!!!!

I can't believe I'm in Seattle on business and couldn't find anything to do yesterday on my one day off and I see this today!!

Atleast this explains the two 1st gen Runners I saw yesterday, as well as the JDM toy 4WD van.

Any more pictures??

My everything is sore after yesterday. But as long as people had a good time and we helped ALOT of kids today it's all worth it. I had no time to play camera jockey but I hope there's alot. I still boo that I lost to a stock SC lol. There maybe that will fill our gripe quota for the year

Thank you everyone! And special thanks goes out to all the board member's and volunteers that made this show possible. We do not personally profit from anything we do here on PSTOC so just remember we are here to help share our love of toyota products and meet new friends. So please help us spread the word and we hope a lot of you new guys will stick around too as your not just a screen name on PSTOC unlike all the other boards, your our friends or soon to be friends!

Ok now I feel corny and all but thats the only way I could say it right.

More pics here!

And next year nothing but the power of love over and over again!!
Just kidding

haha thanks mike next time we'll just park farther away! Or maybe i'll just blast my russian techno stripper music. For next year I think there should be a spot on the number card that says what class you're in so people who don't know whats stock whats swapped but looks stock whats actually an offroad truck and not a pavement pounder are. I hope you'll let us know when the toys for tots is gonna happen.

Will do. We are working out whether to go back to a judge panel but that usually leads to ALOT of complaints of favoritism or they didn't know what they were looking at even though they do. But no worries we are going to be a big part of the Toy Run this year so you'll be hearing from me real soon

Mike, have you thought about doing this event there at Griot's more than once a year?

Maybe to raise money for something else too?

Or maybe not in October?

The problem you might encounter is that everyone was bringing a toy...which is fine and dandy, but then you are doing a toy run a month later. First year I went to PSTOF it was in July. Nice warm, sunny day at a Burger joint. Really great.

Now, its 75 miles away from my house, in Tacoma in OCTOBER and its cold, and drizzley. I know this one got pushed back a little but its happened like that every year. As an outsider suggestion I just think having it earlier in the year would be beneficial.
