An interesting location, for sure, but the crowds didn\u2019t care. It was a little like that scene in the first Fast &amp; Furious movie where all the racers get together, although this one was minus the swimsuits and the bad guys.<\/p>\n<p><img alt=\"type s night lights long beach\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"960\" height=\"541\" decoding=\"async\" data-nimg=\"1\" class=\"fig-image-round\" style=\"color:transparent\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/2bb23bc9eb82f784d5cc5221e03bda54.jpeg\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Mark Vaughn<\/p>\n<p class=\"col-body mb-4 leading-7 text-[18px] md:leading-8 break-words min-w-0 charcoal-color\">\u201cIt\u2019s crazy,\u201d said co-host Larry Chen, who was signing autographs and selling his new hard-cover large-format photo book, Life at Shutter Speed: Two Decades of Larry Chen Photography. The book features over 2,000 photos Chen shot documenting car culture all over the world. From staff photographer for Formula Drift, to Pikes Peak, to Gymkhana 10 with Ken Block, Chen is as much a fixture in import car culture and other parts of the enthusiast hobby as anyone he\u2019s shot.<\/p>\n<p><img alt=\"type s night lights long beach\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"960\" height=\"541\" decoding=\"async\" data-nimg=\"1\" class=\"fig-image-round\" style=\"color:transparent\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/7251d5ce948a1a83124d9073abe7ebf6.jpeg\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Mark Vaughn<\/p>\n<p class=\"col-body mb-4 leading-7 text-[18px] md:leading-8 break-words min-w-0 charcoal-color\">But he had no idea this one cars-without-coffee\/cruise-in\/car happening would be as big as it turned out to be, with cars backed up in both directions of Ocean Avenue all the way to the 710 freeway.<\/p>\n<p><img alt=\"type s night lights long beach\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"960\" height=\"540\" decoding=\"async\" data-nimg=\"1\" class=\"fig-image-round\" style=\"color:transparent\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/033cb7d7883804504c5245e1b66b0856.jpeg\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Mark Vaughn<\/p>\n<p class=\"col-body mb-4 leading-7 text-[18px] md:leading-8 break-words min-w-0 charcoal-color\">\u201cI had no idea,\u201d Chen said in between signings. \u201cNo idea.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><img alt=\"type s night lights long beach\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"960\" height=\"540\" decoding=\"async\" data-nimg=\"1\" class=\"fig-image-round\" style=\"color:transparent\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/0051301b07426559656e7aa35160962e.jpeg\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Mark Vaughn<\/p>\n<p class=\"col-body mb-4 leading-7 text-[18px] md:leading-8 break-words min-w-0 charcoal-color\">He might have suspected. It wasn\u2019t their first rodeo. Chen and friends had done three other such gatherings in Long Beach in a park by the Queen Mary, where the Japanese Classic Car Show and Toyotafest used to be held before they, too, outgrew that plot of land and moved to Marina Green Park, just a short scooter ride away from the Aquarium parking structure in which Chen and 25,000 close friends had gathered.<\/p>\n<p><img alt=\"type s night lights long beach\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"960\" height=\"540\" decoding=\"async\" data-nimg=\"1\" class=\"fig-image-round\" style=\"color:transparent\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/aec65ea7f27dbf331b59b7ee7519b523.jpeg\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Mark Vaughn<\/p>\n<p class=\"col-body mb-4 leading-7 text-[18px] md:leading-8 break-words min-w-0 charcoal-color\">He didn\u2019t have any problem with the turnout.<\/p>\n<p class=\"col-body mb-4 leading-7 text-[18px] md:leading-8 break-words min-w-0 charcoal-color\">\u201cIt was beautiful. It was really, for me, it just goes to show that car culture is alive and well and very healthy. It\u2019s something you can\u2019t hold back.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><img alt=\"type s night lights long beach\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"960\" height=\"540\" decoding=\"async\" data-nimg=\"1\" class=\"fig-image-round\" style=\"color:transparent\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/0c2de531152aff995e9d74f8b05cb076.jpeg\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Mark Vaughn<\/p>\n<p class=\"col-body mb-4 leading-7 text-[18px] md:leading-8 break-words min-w-0 charcoal-color\">Will they do it again next year?<\/p>\n<p class=\"col-body mb-4 leading-7 text-[18px] md:leading-8 break-words min-w-0 charcoal-color\">\u201cMy hope is to do it again for the October round (of Formula Drift, which will be held on a section of the Long Beach Grand Prix course). But of course, we just have to figure out where to do it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><img alt=\"type s night lights long beach\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"960\" height=\"540\" decoding=\"async\" data-nimg=\"1\" class=\"fig-image-round\" style=\"color:transparent\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/462f3654e9211908e7c502eeb71f12d0.jpeg\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Mark Vaughn<\/p>\n<p class=\"col-body mb-4 leading-7 text-[18px] md:leading-8 break-words min-w-0 charcoal-color\">How does he explain the phenomenon?<\/p>\n<p class=\"col-body mb-4 leading-7 text-[18px] md:leading-8 break-words min-w-0 charcoal-color\">\u201cI think so much of it comes down to just a love for cars, love for driving. These things (the cars) we give a soul to. They\u2019re not alive, they\u2019re inanimate objects, but we love them. And the passion is infectious, and that\u2019s why.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><img alt=\"type s night lights long beach\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"960\" height=\"541\" decoding=\"async\" data-nimg=\"1\" class=\"fig-image-round\" style=\"color:transparent\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/acaa15d4a3d4ad3c5d0cb3ac49952655.jpeg\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Mark Vaughn<\/p>\n<p class=\"col-body mb-4 leading-7 text-[18px] md:leading-8 break-words min-w-0 charcoal-color\">He credits movie star and car enthusiast Sung Kang, who is behind barricades across the parking structure signing his own autographs and promoting his own movie, Drifter, about a young person redeemed by the power of drifting and the community that surrounds it.<\/p>\n<p><img alt=\"type s night lights long beach\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"960\" height=\"539\" decoding=\"async\" data-nimg=\"1\" class=\"fig-image-round\" style=\"color:transparent\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/146cb786dc5106f89e34dd2cf6306394.jpeg\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Mark Vaughn<\/p>\n<p class=\"col-body mb-4 leading-7 text-[18px] md:leading-8 break-words min-w-0 charcoal-color\">\u201cYou have people like Sung Kang really singing the praises of what it\u2019s like to be a car culture enthusiast. And also myself, my whole point is to just tell the story of car culture, of our generation.
