This past Saturday (12/27/2025) was an automotive meet set by our friends over at BadInfluence. This was meant to be a pre-meet before headed on over to Tipsy Pig.

While I didn’t make the trip to Tipsy afterwards, it worked out with scheduling that we could make it over to this instead. What ended up super cool was that I had a relative visiting from New Zealand who is into cars, but never traveled to America before. Thought this would give somewhat of an insight to what kind of cars are here in Hawaii.

It looked pretty grim though as the weather was not really on the favorable side. It rained quite a bit before the meet and maybe during the first half hour or so. Luckily the rain let up just a little; and I was able to snag some pics.

Not a lot, but definitely some cool things to see.

There’s something about capturing photos when its raining… can’t really explain it…

Prolly my favorite from the entire thing was this beauty from @redherringphotography. I can’t believe he hid this from me.

Solid lineup of Mark V Supras

Yes we understand. She’s def a looker

Some FRS/BRZs

I hear there was wheels lined up for this M3….

Freaking Nuts

Not much this time around and unfortunately it doesn’t quite capture the vibe, camaraderie, and convos with the great people there.

Until next time Ricecardrivers!
