I think I may be able to do something This Sunday too. but I think to have a better turnout should give more time, plus It may be raining this sunday around the Bay Area. so not many will show up...

I think we should give couple weeks or so, to get more ppl, it's not fun when there are only couple cars there. my 2 cents, but up to you, Majority rules...

3/14 is too late for me how bout 2/29

Id like to shoot all of your cars for my digital video project. Since the project is due the first week of March, the 14th wont work for me. How about Feb 29th? If you guys need more time to plan your weekends, 29th should be ok? Thats like 10 days, and its not like we are meeting for the whole day. It could just be a lunch thing. Id be happy to contribute a free pizza to anyone that shows up. The last meet I attended was in the parking lot of the Stanford Shopping center. If you cant think of a good place, a friend of mine owns a pizza joint in Sunnyvale that has a huge parking lot in front. If you need a place closer to the heart of the Penninsula, Id recommend Pizza Chicago at the Marina Plaza off of 101 and 92 in San Mateo or Windy City Pizza in San Mateo at the Borel Shopping Center off El Camino and 92. Both places have big parking lots, although Windy City might be more deserted on a Sunday afternoon.

So what is the decision? Will it be Sunnyvale or San Mateo? Once the decision is made we should start a list of who's coming.

The meet scheduled for either Sunnyvale or San Mateo is this Sunday the 29th. The meet at Dave and Busters in Milpitas is scheduled for Sunday 3/14. The meet on 3/14 will depend on who will commit.
OG hasn't decided yet where we're going to meet on Sunday, so I hope he decides soon. I've left him an e-mail so waiting like all of you to find out where and when.
