Late ass post of us in Brea kicking it with the Vegas
Nimo yanked his brains out on his own car..

Will we survive 12.21.12? Who knows? If we do, then this meet will be a party for all the survivors who made it through 2012. We will be having giveaways for cars that we think are cool, people who look cool, or just because we feel like it. We will also have Facebook freebies for all the homies who keep up to date with the site. Be sure to check back as we will be updating the details for the Facebook give away.

Most of the Honda heads in our crew went out to support The Chronicles Year IV anniversary meet a couple of weeks ago. The Chronicles is one of our favorite blogs and has been one of our inspirations when it comes to blogging. Honda lovers from all over the world came to the meet and so did our friends from Vegas, Chivas and Ray.

I wanted one of these Civics when I was in high school, but my mom was afraid that I would turn out like the people in Fast and the Furious. Little does she know I became a ricer anyways…
This was a fun meet. Too bad it was blazing hot and we couldn’t hang with the heat. Next year, we’ll be more prepared and will bring a canopy and cooler of water with us.

I’ve been missing the Lowballers lately; it’s been a really long minute since we hung out. In our honeymoon phase, we saw each other every week. One week, we would make the trip to Vegas and the other week, they would come to Cali. Nowadays, we rarely get together, but when we do, it’s epic. Gerald and Chivas came down for Nisei and since we were at the Infamous, we didn’t get to hang out that day. The next morning, Gerald hit us up and we did some old school bromancin’.
Gerald wanted to show us how he get’s down.

The couple of days before AUTOCON were super stressful. Most of us were in a frantic hurry to finish our cars for what we expected to be an awesome show. Some of us even worked on our cars the night before the show, while we were having our family Christmas party. I only had 1 hour of sleep total for the 2 days prior to AUTOCON. There were a lot of disappointments for my car even though I had put so much work into it. My wheels weren’t sealed correctly, my body kit didn’t fit, and my motor was only running on 4 cylinders. Despite all that, I still looked forward to AUTOCON because of all the hype. People mentioned how great of a show it was last year, so I expected the same this year. But before I tell you how the show was, I’ll just give you guys some insight on what Royal Origin was doing during the show.
Our roll in time for the Royal Origin x Canibeat collaboration was at 7:00 AM. Yes, that fucking early. So, we had to gather up the whole crew and meet up beforehand at 6:30AM. We had 31 cars total, including Royal Origin, goodfeeling, Sexy Squad, Lowballers, Boss Company, and Studio. Caravaning to the event was freaking awesome; it was like being in a parade of slammed cars. If that’s how my day was going to start, I knew that the rest of the day would be even better, right? Wrong. When we got there, all we saw was a parking lot that was gated, with a deep incline where most of us scraped our cars while going in. When they said El Toro Air Field I was expecting an airplane hanger or being on an air strip. Nope, it was just a parking lot that smelled like manure, like forreal. Thank the JDM Gods that it didn’t smell like that the whole day; it was either I got used to the smell or it just went away magically. Anyways, I left around 9:00 AM to go to 714 Tires to get my Equips remounted and was hoping it would hold air. Therefore, I missed the staging part of the show. From what I was told, Justin just gave us a corner and said do what ever we want. We were all pretty surprised because we thought that since we were told to come at 7:00 AM sharp, they would have a plan for us that required us to be done setting up early. If we knew that that was the case, we could have just come later and staged ourselves in 15 minutes because all we did was park the way we do at meets. Randomly. It was a waste of our time because all we did was stand/sit/sleep from 7:00 AM to 11:00 AM.
When I got back, the food trucks were starting to park and open up. The gate that the vendors and people who were showing were entering through was still open, which I thought was a convenient way for us to get to the food trucks. Unfortunately, when I tried taking that route to get to the food trucks, it was closed. Because of that, we had to go through the entrance where they were searching people, walk all the way around the gate to get to the food trucks and then come back and get searched. What a hassle. This is a little diagram of how it looked like, in the picture by JDM Life Style. The red spot is where ROYAL ORIGIN was, the pink spot is where the new entrance for spectators was, the blue spot is where the food trucks were and the yellow spot is where there was a convenient pathway, but they closed it. The light blue is where they should’ve had AUTOCON at the air base hanger…
Now, you must be thinking “Fuck Minh, you’re so fucking lazy and it’s just that you guys were placed so far, so it was inconvenient for you guys.” No ninja, we were technically the closest to the food trucks. Imagine if we were in the corner right next to the yellow spot. I would have to cut through the entire show just to get to the food trucks.
