I just suggested Sat. Nov. 24 on the Benzsport site. I want to wait and see what Randall (Callandra sport) has to say because he's the one thats organizing this meet.

I think we're waiting for Randall to confirm this date since he's the one organizing this meet. Just got this link from Benzsport.com.

I am good to go too but 11/24 is the weekend after Thanksgiving and some people may be out of town. Can we get this meet a little more North too?? I am about 80 miles away from Irvine.

I'm up for a meet if my schedule fits it in.

I live in the far west side of Los Angeles County. Maybe we could meet one time for some canyon runs out this way. Malibu Canyon, Kanan Dume Rd., etc... We could end at the beach and take some great scenic shots of all our cars...

There are a lot of people on the benzsport board who can't make it on Sunday's (including me) so I think it will be on a Saturday, hopefully.

*UPDATE*

It looks like the meet is going to happen Saturday December 1st at the Irvine Spectrum. There are still things to plan out, like where to meet up in the Spectrum and other details like what exactly we will be doing when we leave the spectrum.
