ill post info about this in the celicatech forums too

we should try to do the BBQ thing like we did last spring. so try to bring some food and drink.

[macavely]

[lagos]

awesome guys, i cant wait for this, its looking like its going to be a fun one.

a few guys from celicatech, mr2oc, and alltrac.net said yes too !

[Silver94CelicaOw...]

Bump.

Just wanna make sure that this didnt die or anything. Its comming up soon so hopefully there will be a good turnout!

[playr158]

put first we worry about the LSP meet
then the philly meet

JUNE 4TH WOOT LSP

[lagos]

i got at least one amazing supra that said he was going to show up and maybe some other cars too. trying to make this as big of an event as possible, but with meets you never know.

[Drew-887]

Cool a get together at FDR park is alot better for me!!! I live right outside of Philly. I'll come to FDR and i'll also try to get my friend to bring his Black M3.

[DG_Performance]

I would like head over that way again ...but none of you guys (Except for Jeff) have ever come to any of the pittsburgh area meets???? And we have a bunch so there should not be any reason why people from that way could not get over here. Philly people need to make an appearance around here to make me want to go back to philly and hang out with you guys? If a few of you come out to pitts for the next meet i would be more than happy to get my but to philly on the 18th.
dg

[playr158]

i'm in VA
but i've been intending to get to a PITTS meet
don't worry DG
i'll make it to 1

[lagos]

dave, my car is in pieces right now. i got a small list of things i need to do before i can even attend the philly meet, lol. i promise that once everything is back together again, ill come to one of your meets.

[Defgeph]

Ha ! I wish I could drive my celi to a meet.
Soon, very soon.

Dave I'll make it back out to pitts. you guys rock !

I wont be at this meet, I have other things that need my undivided attention.

Have fun guys.
DEF

[Drew-887]

Im going to try to show up. FRD park is only 20 minutes from my house. Someone hit my car and ran so im going to try to get it fixed this weekend. I might just wait to get my car fixed so I can make the meet. The bad part is my car wont be looking its best.

[lagos]

last year manny brought a little bbq and some people brought burgers and drinks. its a big park and small cookouts are allowed in there so bring some food and drink!

[lagos]

I'll be coming through with a friend of mine. He will be bring his new Eclipse. Not a brand new one but like a 97 or something. He is suppose to be buying it Saturday morning. Anyway ive been watching the news and they said that a cold front is coming though so I won't be that hot. I think the hi for Saturday is low 80s.

[lagos]

just a reminder to every one... the meet is still on. THIS saturday june18th starting around 12pm or so. hope to see everone there!!!!

this is mostly a toyota meet but everyone is welcome. expect to see some celicas, supras, mr2, etc.... all are welcome.

there are a lot of parking lots at fdr park. drive around till you see the skating area under the highway. then park it the next big lot you find after that, or wherever you see that a few toyota guys are hanging out alread.

[Silver94CelicaOw...]

I'm pumped for this. Weather looks like its going to be great this weekend, and hopefully lots of people will show up.

Does anybody whos taking I95 South want to meet up somewhere around the Trenton/Princeton area that day? I'm looking to cruise in with more than myself if possible.

[Batman722]

Me and Manny are going that route and maybe hooking up with Mac in NJ or so...talk to the Mac

[macavely]

yea thats why after you guys meet up with me... well meet up with you ....

[md6gst]

is anyone comming 95 north through delaware to get there. if so do you want to meet up somewhere and all ride in together?
