so where are our ga guys at? luke, tim? oh and may i suggest the weekend before memorial day? still no traffic, but ensures all (or at least most of) the college aged guys will be able to come
weekend before memorial day sounds good if the working folks can manage it. Some employers might not aprove having a day or 2 off if the following weekend is a 3 day weekend. Definately sounds good though. schools out and not the traffic of memorial day weekend along with the hords of poeple going out to parks/beaches etc.
SO how about the obligatory bbq at park on Saturday to give those people who would only come for a day or two a chance to hangout without spending any extra monies on hotel stays etc. How does Sat from 11-5 sound? after that we play it by ear or go our seperate days.
Sunday is going to be mostly for check out n go home so maybe a lunch at noon before we all head our seperate ways???
Friday can be a paintball thing or track event etc.
is this starting to sound like a plan???
Come on guys start chiming in.
I suck at paintball and my car sucks at racing so I'm out for all of that but I'll still be coming. If you guys are going to the track on Friday I might just show up that night or Saturday morning.
So do we wanna get there mid-afternoon thursday, spend all day fri at the track or paintball or w/e, saturday at the park, taking pics, w/e, and sunday kinda headin out?Originally Posted by guaynabo89
Sounds like a heck of a weekend!! Now we just need to find a place...haha.
I was thinking Virginia Beach. Its a super nice town in virginia, lots of parks and what-not, shopping for the ladies.
I also found an awesome looking Go-kart place there.
http://www.vbmotorworld.com/GroupCorpRates.html
They offer group rates, 35 a person will get us 3 races (12 laps, 12 laps, 25 laps) and a 5 lap practice, which really isnt bad. They do require a 100 dollar deposit against damage, but since they require 10 people, thatd only be 10 dollars a person. Only bad thing is its 16+, which means your kids (dennis) would need to find something else to do while we are playing, although honestly im not sure if you could do it anyway with your back. That same place, though has mini-golf, paintball, and go karts for kids and other rides too, so I'm sure you could find something to do if your back won't allow the karting.
edit
So virginia beach is pretty darn close to like 4 other towns, so if we decided to do the karting thing, we could stay in norfolk, chesapeake, or any of those other towns and they are less than 20 mins away. WAY cheaper to stay in too.

Some of us could split a room no homo style. However, since I am a AAA member I will see if I can a good deal.

well i know myself, steve (88lxi68) and dennis (guaynabo) will be out. Dennis has a family, and steve and I are bringing girlfriends (i assume steve, crystal (sp) was a trip!) but i bet the single guys will be down (assuming they start chimin in)
That would be cool, I'm riding solo. Can't guarantee a no-homo experience, though.

Haha Joay. I just checked and I could book a room for about $60 a night.

Damn! I'm down for that. Promise to keep the gayness to a minimum.
We need to get organized so we can start inviting other people!
Raleigh NC - Go karting, big city, pretty central. Lots of parks and stuff. I'm sure we can find plenty to do. Paintball field thats CHEAP, but we would need to get a min of 20 people to participate. Parks for BBQ.
Virginia Beach - TONS of stuff to do, lots of shopping, etc. Go karting, paintball. Parks for bbq.
Any other suggestions? Maybe we should add a poll or two at the top.
Also, how many people would be willing to make it a four day weekend (Arrive Thurs, "play" friday and saturday, and head out sunday)? I think this would give us all a decent vacation, and get plenty of group time in.
To get a halfway decent turnout, I know we discussed 1gteg.org and preludepower (2nd and 3rd gens), but what about including the classic honda section of honda-tech?
bump???
I won't be doing more than one-and-a-half days since I'm lame like that, so those of us who are going to actually do more stuff should probably be the ones choosing the location. But, I've been to Virginia Beach and I liked it. I've only passed through Raleigh but I would vote for VA.
I am going to say NC because I have been there and I do not think VA Beach will be warm enough yet to really take advantage of that.
BUT...either choice is fine with me
'88 LX-i Coupe --- LS/Vtec
'08 Accord EX-L 6-6 --- Daily Duty
How many people would come if the meet was in Ohio?
- Joe
Hey I'd go, I actually go to Ohio every couple weeks just to drive around if you can believe that. I know there are at least two or three other Ohio members here, so if not many of yall want to trek out to the coast, I'm up for a sort of midwest meet too.
Virginia and ohio are both the same distance from me, so it doesnt bother me either way
The downfall of living in NH...exactly 3 days away from everywhere.
Yeah well Augusta Ga apparantly isn't close enought to any friggen thing either so I feel ya brotherVirginia and ohio are both the same distance from me, so it doesnt bother me either way
The downfall of living in NH...exactly 3 days away from everywhere.mrytle beach?
N RK & J I dont think the homo comment was even acknowledgable as a joke or a dig...even if this were completeley co-ed, um which it is so why assume it isn't , I would share a room with a female and not expect reciprocating lap lickage cuz we are buds about cars n life.

hey nc and va beach are good with me i have family that lives in va beach and i grew up in nc and my dad lives there

I know this idea may seem crazy to a lot of people, but what about Kansas/Oklahoma? By may we are usually pretty warm, and i bet we could get a few Cali guys to show. Maximum driving time from anywhere in the US is 32 hours to Oklahoma City.
But since we are talking East Coast, Ohio would be about 7 hours closer for me. I take it you can figure stuff out for us to do?
Oh, if we did decide to do a Big U.S. Meet in oklahoma, my school rents out a BAD-ASS driving course (where i and the Oklahoma City Police Department are taught Precision and Emergency Vehicle Operations) for 300 a day. Dirt Cheap
Long as I have the time/money, I'll show up wherever, but I don't imagine I'll have enough of either to make it to OK. Would be awesome if I did though.
OK would be a completely hanus drive for me, and i'm guessing the same for Steve, Rob, Alan, and all the NJ guys. Ohio is not out of the question, and VA and NC are both options (still talking about 10-12 hrs for the NewEngland'ers).
I highly doubt my car will be driveable by then, but it's yet another goal to try and meet (yet completely miss). I'll try my damndest to get out there where-ever it is, but gettign the time off could be difficult seeing as I'm going to have to find a new job come the new year seeing as we're closing our doors at the end of the year.
