What do you guys think?

Not even worth it to hear the F-Chat losers complain. You should of seen the hissy fit they threw when the NSX club showed up. Just mad because they couldnt get all their 308s and 328s into the parking lot.

K guys and gals here are the three choices:

1. Have it at a park in Huntington Beach with BBQ, Beer, Horseshoe, Volleyball. There is no park that we can dominate the parking lot. We would have a first come first serve parking lot and wonder around to look at the cars. It would be more of a family/friend meet just to hang out.

2. The bank I work for will let me use one of the O.C. branches parking lot for a BBQ meet. No Vball or grass. More like the RoseBowl meet.

3. We could have it at Tia Juanas and it would be a simple meet to just look at the cars. You will need to buy or provide your own food.

I thought the first one would be cool cause we could do more? What do you guys think?

Angela, I hope whatever you come up with doesn't involve us (commuters) waking up at 5am (Crystal Cove).

Mark,
That sounds like a plan. How many cars will fit? How is the parking on Saturday? Can you do a driveby for us and find out if they have a BBQ and table close to the parking lot you are talking about? If so that sounds good to me.

sdsilverm3,
Heck no my eyes don't even open at that time. LOL

So if your bank won't let us bring pot can we still drink beer?



Anyways I think we should have a place where we can all park close- I mean its our cars that are bringing us together right?

Parking is Not a Problem as they have Three Parking lots on the North side of Huntington Beach Central Park

Easy 75 spaces....

Yes The BBQs and Tables are there..One can Even RESERVE them from the city of HB if Needed.. IF you reserve it they charge a small fee...as we have done this before..think it was 20/30 bucks..then NO One can snake the space..

The Park is aprox 100 yards from the parking lot...

Central Park also has a restaurant FWIW

Mark you are the man! I will PM you for more info so I can reserve a spot. I tried to call them on the phone last week and they told me that the parking lot would fill up early.

Vic,
Yeah I didn't say what kind of grass huh? You are a funny guy and that is a rare quality.

Half the fun of these SoCal meets is the work up on threads leading up to the actual gathering.
