2015 Rotary Meets planning thread; comments welcome

Hello,

So I have been talking with the RX8s and we believe we would like to have 2 or 3 meets at the Boston Pizza at 400/Highway 7 (AKA The Interchange) this year. We would like to plan and publish the dates in advance so everyone has lots of notice, and having 2 or 3 events allows everyone to attend at least one of them.

We are thinking May, July and Sept, so that if there is a MOM event in August, we would not conflict.

In order to pick the dates, its important to not conflict with race weekends and time attack events. So this thread exists for those of you in the know about CASC, CSCS, and Sigma schedules can advise when their dates are. It also allows for feedback on if 2 meets is good, or should we plan for 3.

The floor is open. Comments welcome.

Do you have any info that there will be a MOM this year? in 2013, we had a great RX7 turnout for MOM, but in 2014, they didn't announce it until very late.

A lot of people have family plans on stat holiday long weekends. Probably best to avoid those.

I agree – more meets is better than fewer. Also, agree re: avoiding long weekends because so many people are out of town. Thanks for getting this started.

Sundays work best for me. I plan my life around meet schedules and track days

Sunday late afternoon's would be best. Let's bring back that old school car meet feeling. Not this Friday/Saturday night crap.

I'll likely make the trek down for at least one meet again. Likely leave the TII at home this time and bring the Rx-4.
