Rat vans have more fun, just ask Marco.
I had a really good time at SyncroFest, I enjoyed seeing and talking with every one. Thanks to all the organizers and volunteers for putting on a great event.
Hopefully next year we can all be together again. There were some favorite faces we didn't get to see this year.

Sorry you never got one, Mario! They were in the packets but not until Friday when Andrew showed up with them. I'll see if I can find one for you...

I wish I could say that I was one. I bought extra tickets once I saw the under seat sliders in real life.
Thanks for putting so much bling into the raffle.  |

I've got a mini write up with pictures and videos on Socal Bajas if anyone is interested.
These rocks sure do look strategically placed... Hmmm.... |
Yeah, I piled up those rocks on the right and didn't like the line so I ended up going left over the rocks down from the peak. |
