I think it was a little of each. Everyone has a life outside of cars and can't make it to all the meets. If you had a group of 50, and everyone planned an event, you would only have to plan an event once ever three years or so. Not too much to ask.

How do the other clubs do it?

Sorry for the double post but about MAPerformance. They are literally right across the highway from my house haha. Thats actually the place I saw the Grand Prix meet at. I'd be down for meeting there any day lol. It would be good place too cause we could do a lap of medicine lake too since its right down the road. Beautiful drive as well.

Lets do this thing. people interested in really starting to organize shoot me a pm and we should all grab lunch and discuss ideas...

there was a forum started a little over a month ago.

I had an old forum still running from back in my video game club days lol. I converted it just to see how it would look.

So if you guys wanna use it we can, its good to go.

Sounds good to me. I think we should check with MAPerformance too to see how they would feel about hosting a meet/cookout or something. We could always just meet at the lake right up the road in the parking lot and have a cook out at the park

MA isnt going to host it for free. You're better off setting up a dyno day.

Plus, you guys talk about a serious intrest in a club and your talking about how gay you guys are. Just shows how serious you are about setting a meet up. Most of the "grown up" members of this forum would not show up to an event were such *** grabing would be present. But then again thats just me and I dont even have a Rotary powerd car any longer.

We could always just do a cook out at someones place over this summer. Start small and go from there i suppose. Anyone got a big driveway? lol

Another idea would be having there be a base site with like information and pictures or whatnot that would have a link to the forum. I know for a fact doing .tk doesn't work on forums, something to do with the cookies i think.

the best thing to do would prob be at a park or somebody willing to host at their house/apartment that have a grilling place

but a park would be a good place, maybe one by lake Calhoun
