I vote for Evosport! All the meets so far have been in Northridge. Isn't it time for a different place?

I got an idea for KWik. Why don't you come out and do some installs for us and those you help will contribute to your internet tool fund?

Anyone need anything done?

(of course, Kwik's gotta agree to it first. )

I don't have a problem with that...well...except figuring out how to get all the tools there. That's why a Temecula meet would be better.


remember, I offered to host a meet at my place so we could also do the BBQ thing. I think I called it a "Tech Session"

I'd consider driving down from Sacramento if it's gonna be one huge event. But if it's two smaller ones then I don't know.

Just figure out where it's gonna be. Besides the distance to everyone, does one place suit this type of event better than the other? Large lot, less likely to get harrased, etc.?

Evosport's lot definitely won't get kicked by the security, but they say its' smaller than the Starbucks' parking lot. Starbucks = big lot + risk of getting kicked by security.

Not too much harassment by the security at the Starbucks center. This is of course assuming there aren't a bunch of a'holes revving for no reason and trying to start crap.

I agree, this is supposed to be a friendly meet not a battle! Jerry is right, security shouldn't bother us at Starbucks if everyone acts maturely and not like a bunch of d**kheads. I also talked to Sprewell Racing and they said depending on the amount of people we have, they are willing to come to Northridge and check out our event. Does anyone know anybody else like at evosport or something? Another couple friends of mine from MBZ Motors and Advanced Paint & Body will probably be there as well for tech. questions and stuff like that. I am also trying to get my friend from Star Benz BMW junkyard to come as well for any requests for anything people might be looking for. I hope this is going to be a good turnout. I have also seen a couple more Benz's driving around the area this week and have mentioned it to them as well and they will also spead the word...

Not that I don't want to go, but I can't convince my friend to drive that far. I didn't even participate in the thread until Frank had mentioned meeting in LA. We'll see what happens...

if it's still northridge, there's no way i can go then because of the stuff I said earlier about my friend's b-day bbq in huntington beach. But the event is still a month away, we'll see.

well..... earlier is fine. but just give people time to get ready. it will take me about 2 hrs to drive down from santa barbara. i would think it'll be nice if everyone had lunch already and then come to the GTG. we can make it earlier to like... 1 or 2??

what do you guys think?

i don't think i can make it to northridge, but i think it might be a good idea to just let this thread die and start a new thread with info for the meet so people who haven't been keeping up don't have to sorth thru 20 pages of posts to figure out what's going on. i agree there should only be one meet on may 31st and i'm glad silvac32 finally put his foot down and decided on northridge since that was the original decision, but it looks like there was a decent number of people who wanted a meet in la/oc... maybe we can organize a meet for some other day.

potatobbq, good idea. Set up another meet on another date for the LA area. Never had one before I don't think.

Okay, there's absolute no F$#%ing reason this thread should be 20 F$#%ing pages long!

ALL YOU NEED TO KNOW IS THAT THERE WILL BE TWO MEETS!

STARBUCKS, NORTHRIDGE, MAY 31, AT 3:00PM

If anyone wants to change the time or date, do it on another thread!

well...... i do really hope that there is only going to be 1 meet. not 2 meets 1 meet! this way we can have a bigger turnout. otherwise we can never get over 20 mercedes with this kind of participation.

come on people... this will be fun... you guys can yell at me if you don't think it was worth the drive. :o
