Don't be sad mang...... I went through all this b.s. for a while, when I tried to put meets together for both Tampa and Orlando. Defineatly looks like we have enough interested members now..... just gotta get a dinner together for everyone to show up..... low-key and low-energy.... great combination for meets! Key is for us to get a good number together and do it once everymonth or once every other month....... keeps interest up!

I hear you, but the problems you run into weekend meets is that they are more energy consuming which turns off a lot of people from showing up... too much work for them I guess. Plus, a lot of people make plans for their weekends and don't want to deviate from such. 3rd....... Saturday is busy night for restaurants so it will be a PITA getting reservations together and not have issues for parking. I was merely saying monday nights because most of the meets from other car clubs get together very successfully on monday nights... just something I have observed. It might be because most people have nothing really planned for monday night other than go home from work....... so they are more inclined to swing by for food and to hang out.

I give up. You name the date and I'll make it -- as long as a lot of people show.

Feb 3 - 5th I'm busy - www.carsforthecure.com

Not a bad idea. Let's see what the others say...

just make sure its kinda empty and that we got access..i got a funny story about that.


Well me and my friends were takin pics downtown in a garage. Well we got in cuz my friend lives in the place. On the way out the garage wouldnt open so my friend went out there and it opened and then he hung on it, like a moron and it got stuck. We sat there for 45 min thinking on how to make it go up. All the sudden the guard comes and does something and WHOA it goes up, then he asks us for our name and info. We got in car and drove off and i think we ran over his tow cuz he was yelling...well thas it
