Ok we are trying to bring it together here. If you are anywhere close to North Georgia and you feel like making a trip over here it will definitely be worth it. We have a bunch of local 3geezers and tons of cool spots to kick it. The town that I live in is a HUGE import racing town so I thought that we could hang out during the day and if you live close enough then you can stay later and hit the strip around 10-11pm. If it turns out that there is a more central spot then we will switch locations. This is the draft thread created to see just where you guys are located. Kennesaw is about 45 min north of Atlanta. If you are interested in this meet please reply with your location and approximately what date would work best for you. We'll go from there.

it's questionable for me, but i live just south of knoxville, TN. if this is done in june i probably couldn't make it. keep us posted on what you come up with.

:wave: I'm down here in Birmingham. I wouldn't mind making the drive and grabbing a room for the night maybe to rest up before I head home. It would be awsome to roll up with like 20-30 3geez. None of the 3rd gen drivers around here (aside from dhcarss) are really into doing some work on their rides. I'm all for it though sometime in late June early July. That would give plenty of time for tuning, cleaning, adding a little of this and that. Not to mention giving me something to work toward. Good central location! Sounds like a good plan as well. Keep us updated! :flash:

whats up 3rdgenfanatic, havent seen you down at the street races lately, I dont know if you have heard about the midnight maddness thing that has started at lassiter mountain dragway, starts at 11pm on sat, till whenever, I was there until 3 am last sat and there was a pretty good turnout, I my self ran like 7 or 8 times. Lassiter Mountain is about 5 to 10 min north of birmingham, not to far, and no cops to worry about..

Hi kiddies...
No, I won't be making the meet, school is killing me and I start work soon, but thought I would drop this into the mix. Maybe one of these days I'll get around to actually meeting people again. :D

Ok, so far it looks like we have 6 or 7 people. Jay, too bad you won't be able to make it. I'll set the date soon and if you can get away for a little while then hopefully we will see you there. I am going to map out everyone’s location and find a central location. If you don't have your location posted in the USER CP could you please do so. :) I still haven’t heard from a couple people so this thread will stay open for another week or so. Then I will start the planning. I was hoping to find somewhere that we could all just chill out and BBQ or something, then cruze around later on. How does that sound to everyone? BBQ, Cars, and maybe some girls? Hmm... life doesn’t get much better.

Ok this is the list of "maybes" so far. Agelder, did you think you could make it? I remember you saying that you were going to sell your car? You are welcome to come regardless. :) As soon as David replies I'll add his name to the list. If you are on this list and you don't think that the end of June/ early July would work out please let me know. Thanks.

I have decide on the name of the club that me, brian, nate, and zach have made. I am thinking of "Diverse Beggings" if anyone wants to join or want to know anything about the club give me a call at 678 794 2543cell David. We are just 3rd gen Accords and I already have one sponser for us. I am trying ot expand this club much as I can. I am looking for a meet sometime in the begging of next month. If anyone wants to show up give me a call and I will add you to the list.

next month? as in august? hmmm, depending on where the meet will be and my finances i would like to be there. right now i've got mad work to do on the car. new valve cover gasket, new fuel filter, flush radiator and change the transmission fluid. if i get the filter, gasket and fluid through the dealership i visited today, it was sweet by the way. West Side Honda for those who know knoxville. getting that stuff through them will cost me just under 50 bucks. that's really good, IMO. i will do the work myself of course. well anyway, i'm still a maybe.

woah... relax guys... I had to leave town for a family reunion and I haven't been able to get online... Work is really tying me up also. How does middle of August sound for everyone? If the middle of Aug. is cool then I will go from there. If I don't get enough replies for this meet then it will be put off. We need at least 7-8 people to make this worth it. Please post if you are available for the middle of August... the weekends would be the 16th and the 23rd. If you guys need more time then we can extend it to the last week of Aug. if necessary.

87AccordsterLx
07-27-2003, 08:20 PM

87AccordsterLx
07-28-2003, 03:05 PM
Whats wrong with Sat. night? Barret is just as packed on Sat. That way people that have a long drive won't have to ditch work and imediately start driving here... If more people like Fri. then thats cool... this is based around the amount of people that can show up. Does everyone like the weekend of the 30th? Fri. or Sat?

07-28-2003, 05:45 PM
where is barret

tightwhitelx
07-28-2003, 07:28 PM
yeah i think i am going to need directions i live in jonesboro and that sounds like its quite a drive but i hope to have my weber installed by the 30th so that sounds good to me i will talk to moonscryer and see if he can make it too and one more guy i met while at home depot whos name is alex pm or email chrome thangs too he lives in columbus you should try to email everyone who has replied to any of these pages to tell them the update of this thread thats what me and jay did last year just some ideas from someone who has done it before ok. but i will definately try to make it

c20v6turbo3rdgen
07-28-2003, 09:40 PM
Barrett Parkway is a place where we all Tunners go to and hang out and talk to other people and see some fine girls down here! We can just make it on the last Sat. of the month.....That will be fine...I am about to park my car until I get a rebuild but I will bring it out for the meet....

MoonScryer
07-29-2003, 07:23 PM
barrett is ok, but I prefer the race track in Commerce. $10 to watch, $15 to race all night. Nice mix of domestics and imports, many turbo and nitroused cars. Plus the benefit of not having to outrun the cops.
Also, I can't make it that far on a Saturday, as I may actually be working on it (I hope!!). I'll let y'all know.

agelder
07-30-2003, 04:49 AM

dhcarss
07-30-2003, 12:51 PM
The track sounds cool, what days are you talking about?

87AccordsterLx
07-31-2003, 06:52 AM
The only reason we were thinking Barret was because you can see a vast variety of cars. There are more places to hang out on Barret Pkwy, and best of all, it’s free. :D Either way is fine with me I just want people to have fun while they are over here.

BTW, we definitely won't be racing on Barret, just cruzing around... There are a lot of cute girls with nice cars and so on. I can't imagine how much respect our 3rd gens would get if we cruzed around with 8 or 9 cars. Just an idea though... keep em' coming.

edit*

The date is (Un-officially) set for the 30th of Aug.

tightwhitelx
07-31-2003, 08:28 PM
yeah just cruzing around sounds good for me can i get some directions on how to get to barret from jonesboro

Sorry I haven't been able to check in for a while... we are going to do this on the 30th. Those of you that can make it to Kennesaw on the 30th please respond. It is exit # 269 Barret Parkway which is north of I-20 and I-285. I’m thinking it should be later on in the evening that way we can check out the cars that show up around 10-11pm. Those of you that have a long drive please let me know so we can change the times so you aren't driving home to late. I'll have the final plans on wed. or thurs. It all depends on who is coming, and where you are coming from. Please post with your 411.

ok, Jerry, Derick , and Josh (Jerry's cousin) got into a car wreck going 80 in a 25 curve, Josh was driving. Jerry and Derick got life lited out of there. Jerry has a broken fimor (can't spell it and don't really care) and a couple of small bones inside of his back. Derick has a broken fimor, leg, eye socket, a slice half way off finger, colasped lung, and a sore back. Josh only has a sprang ankle and he was the driver. Jerry was in the back seat without a seat belt and Derick was in the front seat with a seat belt and they found jerry in the front windshield with his upper body out the windshield and his legs on Derick. I got pics of the whole thing...They hit 5 trees and I think that is what saved them casue if they hit a tree dead on they would have died. They hit the last tree so hard the it shook the base and then it went up to the middle where it was weak I guess and it broke the tree in half in the road, That was the only way that they found them cause the cop got out to check out why the tree was in the road and he heard Jerry screaming in the car....... I have pieces of the of the rims when the broke apart.....I will show you or just get pics of it and post them....Nate, if I send you some pics of my lude could you host them? Give me a call Damn it! I am tired of waiting. You could just give me your number in my email.... [email protected]

you people are lame, You say that you wanna go and "try" to go but when you have a freaking month to plan it and call out of work or what ever that you are doing that day/night you all punk out....I am sorry but I am glad that I bought a Prelude....The web site that I am ( www.preludeperformance.com and www.teaminterlude.com )on there are people wanting to drive down from South Carolina to come to Georgia to have a cook out with the whole site and club for the site. I don't know what to tell you people. I think that you all need to try some more. Nate (87accordsterlx) tried to get this thing together but you all (those who that backed out and couldn't go) are stupid and can't think ahead of time. We tried to get a club going...and a meet going on down here but everyone has no passion or care for it and you say that you are going to meet up but at the last momment something comes up.....Another thing is the HOW LONG HAS THIS BOARD FOR THIS MEET BEEN GOING ON AND NOTHING HAS HAPENED YET? This is pretty freaking lame though that you all talk it but nothing happends...Just give it up.....the only person that I know on this board that gives a crap and tries to get things going in this area is Nate (87accordsterlx) Big props to him.... bye

As far as some of us and work goes, my Florida trip was last minute, I work M-F so a weekend getaway for me NORMALLY doesn't mess with my schedule. I've been waiting on a green light for this trip for 3 mths now so yeah OK I backed I'm stupid. Some people have things that come up but no reason to go penial on them for it

Im not worried about it... we tried and it didn't work out. We'll just keep trying until we can get a decient amount of people to show up. Jay, I really want to meet you man... we have come close to meeting but it never works out. Hopefully you can make it once this meet is orginized. I know you have a lot of shit going going on, as do I. With that said, I can't wait to meet all of you... I think it's great how our hobbies can bring us together... Anyways enough of the bullshit babbleing... when should we have this meet? :flip:

My weekends should start to open up a lil bit in the next few weeks. Benn hella swamped trying to get this and that fixed on the car and its been a fix one thing find 3 more things in the process. I'd thought about meeting up with Jay on a weekend when I run up to Atlanta to check out the salvage yards but I dunno when I'm doin that one. OK I'll leave it upto you guys

c20v6turbo3rdgen
09-23-2003, 09:38 AM
HAHA.....Lame....Is all that you got Vinny? I am just pissed cause everyone told me a Nate (accordsterlx) that they wanted to meet but then when we give them a month notice (may be longer far as I remember) everyone says that wanna back down cause they didn't have the notice or something came up like work. Let me think for a second though, wouldn't a month notice be long enoughe or do we have to give a year notice for all the intellectual declined people how can't figure things out in their head........If I spelled anything wrong I don't really care...

Vinny
09-23-2003, 09:49 AM
Sometimes things just come up, jobs to most of us are more inpoartant than meets. I've already me a few people from the site, drove to Gainseville to do it. I'm more than willing to run to Atlanta, just during the time NOPI was going I had a last minute Business trip to Pensacola, again my job is more important than a meet, sorry but thats just life. As far as lame, sorry if having a good job, a wife, and 3 kids make me lame, but as I said my family and my job come first. I think they call it resonsibility, maybe I'm wrong.

I can see why you'd get miffed if everyone said yeah I'll be there and then cancelled out and yes you're right a month is plenty of time. I hopped up and went to meet Sean and John in a days notice, and Seans notice was about 4 hrs. However my schedule was pretty open that day. Like I said I goto Atlanta quite often and have talked to Jay and Nathan about meeting so we'll just see if it works out. If not then oh well I understand
