How big are your meets anyways? Hopefully they aren't big. Or full of the MOCC forum guys. Nothin against the forum, just against the guys there who flamed me for wrecking my 8. They ruined that site for me.

I hate large meets, where they try to get shitloads of people out there, because then everyone is just huddled in their own personal circle jerks and its awkward going after everyones already settled in cuz they just stare you down and then dont even talk to you.

Honestly, I miss how the weekly meets were in January. I'll always remember my first meet at WingStop. Hopefully some of you guys can relate and help bring em back.
That was me. I've been running NCR since 2004 and the meets have been pretty much weekly since then. I used to do meets on here, but as you guys have seen they don't work out.

It depends on your definition of large, yesterday's meet probably varied between ten cars max, people were always coming and going.

Sometimes you have to make an effort to chat with people, otherwise you'll just be relegated to the side. Back when I started going to meets in like 98 I thought it was bad but if you make an effort it's generally fine.

I used to, no one even responded to the posts so I stopped. I don't think I really know anyone on here anymore, all of the old timers moved to NCR.

The meets are weekly so there are going to be a lot of "spam" here.

Yes, of course. There are multiple people on there that either have a FD and Miata, or an RX-8 and a Miata.

Me, I have all three.

The rotary contingent on there is lacking I admit, but it's been dying on here and every other forum as well. There really isn't any community these days, thats why I stick to NCR. it's a good group with no drama. Completely unlike the olden days of rx7club. Heck, that drama was exactly why it was founded in the first place.

Guess I'll show. Where are you going to be near? I parked by the back near the train tracks last time. Where the road separates the parking garage/main parking and that small patch where a lot of trailer trucks park.

hai guis, I dont know that spot. I know the spot where I held the Calaveras cruise, which was in the outskirts of Dave & Busters.

Tomorrow and Sunday I took the day off, because I have an assembly to attend from 10 am to 4 pm, so I will be out for sure I'll bring 2 other integras with me. Non rice, I promise.. One has a roll bar welded in The other guy is the guy trying to set up the dyno day, so if you want more information about that, I think he'd be the guy to talk to.

I'll be in touch

If you drive around the outside of the parking lot, its in the corner behind Dave and Busters. If you get to the parking garage you've gone too far. If you're at the movie theater you've gone too far. If you're heading toward the parking garage, it will be on the left. If you're heading toward the movie theater it will be on your right.
