Sorry guys, I dont think that I will be able to make it. I'm at work right now, but there is a small chance I could duck out a little early and meet up at the park.

They were doing some serious donuts in the grassy area near where we parked. Looked pretty cool, but then the Rangers showed up right before we were all headed for a nice drive, led by SLK_ROY. The drive went on, but at least 2 of them were held back by the rangers.

Any input guys as to what happened after the rest of us left for the drive?

15 dollars is a rip to get in, I figure that 15 dollars is more than enough to reseed the area.

well what happened was mr a4 here was showing off his quattro, and we were pritty pissed to begin with due to traffic, we barly slept, we waited at a meeting point for no one, due to no one calling, leaving their names after the decide to say were going. Then who ever picked a 15 dollar entrace to this meet should be hung. I mean meets never last for over 2 hours thats what 7.50 an hour parking??? i mean comon. We understand it a short ride for you guys but what about us ny'rs and nj'rs. I could also understand the 15 dollar charge if their were other things avaiable, but it was just an open feild in the middle of nowhere.

So we were all kinda ticked about it so we started doing a couple donuts and what not, on their weed infested grass. If anything we did a cheap job of tilling up the soil. So yeah. Jared, Matt and i'm sorry i fogot your name ::driver of the 91 SEL:: got caught for doing donuts and what not. It was all in good humor

I'm glad you guys made the trip, sorry for the traffic but that's just 95. If you guys in NY or NJ had a meet, I would love to go, traffic or entrance fee won't matter to me. How can you say it was just an open field in the middle of nowhere? You were at a beach! I know I just met you guys and I would rather start out as friends but to say whoever picked a place with a $15 entrance to the meet should be hung?. Everyone at the meet has beautiful cars that many people wished they had. If paying 15 bucks is too steep, how do you afford the car you drive? I would never bash an event that anyone hosted and I went to, especially if most of my complaints were out of that persons control.

Me (Capri Blue C230SS) and DestroVR6 (with the Audi Q7) only paid $10.00 to get in. Anyway, it's true....it was a cheap, quick, and free tilling of the soil for them. Even though the meet didn't last too long, it's always nice to meet people and see some old friends again.

Hey, NY and NJ'ers, did the official cops show up or were the power rangers just flexing their little muscles? Did they nail you with any fines or anything?
