I guess I'm just taking a general poll and then we can try and pick a date and location. We can open this up to DTMpower guys too, because they always accept me, so it would be courtesy to return the gesture. I suppose we should write down:
1) The city you live in (so that a location that accomidates everyone is chosen)
2) What kind of meet you'd prefer (cruise, canyon run, social gathering, any ideas you have).

I really have no clue how to organize a meet, especially because we don't know who we have, so maybe someone who knows what they are doing can take over...

This is OUR meet, so you tell me what is qualified. I don't think anyone cares if you don't bring a MB either.

People don't check this forum much. Mesa Grande is nice. If you head towards the 76, you can go west and eventually you can go up Palomar Mountain. Very nice!

Yes, you are right. East coming from the 15, but west coming from Mesa Grande and Lake Henshaw.
