Looks like I missed out on an epic get together! Hopefully Shark Werks will be kind enough to host another event in the near future

Can't wait to see how that RWB RS turns out, love those guys and what they do with their cars

Missed ya both at the meet and drive to Alice's…….

Just to clear things up, there is NO 997 RWB yet in the works as of yet, but he is always contemplating about it.

There is a one off RAUH-Welt 996, but that is all for a modified water-cooled 911.

Ive been fortunate and honored to know Nakai-San and a lot of the RWB crew and they have taken me in as family. And Im soooo glad I was able to persuade him and come by from his busy schedule to see Sharkwerks and see some of his fans. Sorry you weren't able to meet him…… definitely a next time. I hope you get to meet him because Nakai totally loves his fans!!!!

No 997 rwb yet, famous last words. Just like I tried to get secret info from Alex the last year about a special project.....

I saw Nakai visually measuring your car to fit 18x13 fronts and 18x 15 rears

What would be awesome is if we get the whole caravan in the tunnel and do a simultaneous rev. We'd probably send a shockwave through the hills. We could have someone at the end of the tunnel filming as all the sharks are emerging to attack

thank YOU man. Without getting all EMO on here you're a big part of what got my brain ticking as far as modifying cars and going faster and faster way back when.

Thanx for posting all the extra pix Alex!!!! Good memories.

Was glad to see that my friend Nakai-San was able to come by the Sharkwerks facility at a last minute invitation even though he was building cars for SEMA. He had a great time meeting Alex and crew of Sharkwerks and meet a lot of his fans. He truly loves his fans!!!!!!

I shared this email with Alex already and just wanted to share this with you all

Whoa humbled man:P Yes indeed it was so neat and none of us even knew! You surprised the heck out of everyone. Thanks for everything you do/show on here for the community and indeed you were the star of the day in more ways than one. I'll send you some more thank you notes shortly.

There's more to come from your car I know it:P

Aye.. or we'll make a lot of noise coming down if you don't!

Armando
Haha... thank you again sir. Really you have a hit on your hands for many decades so SF is going to be very lucky indeed. I'm coming for day 1 so don't forget us little guys. And we have your parking spot here for the 918....

Yep I think we did get a few GT3s all together. What's crazy was it was on a few days notice... So many other folks couldn't even make it I think the next one we'll try to give people at least 6 days notice eh?
