PA People Cruise to the East Coast Meet, getting some people together Options

[Tigawoods]

i know there are a few people from PA that are going to the East Coast meet. I was hoping to organize a convoy of some sort. i have a couple people coming with me.

[pittfirefighter]

yeah i'm down for it...

[jason]

id be down, where are you looking to meet?

[Tigawoods]

well i know pitt, you are coming from the Pittsburgh area. and jason you are closer to me. Pittfirefighter, what route are you taking to get to the meet. i know it will be out of your way to travel south of philly. or we could meet on 95 somewhere

[pittfirefighter]

i'll probably be coming from the greensburg/ new stanton area if i pick up my 3sgte to take to the meet... it all depends on if its up and running by then... fingers crossed... just let me know where you want to meet... doesn't really matter to me... its a long enough drive as it is... an extra hour isn't going to make any difference haha

[95st-celica]

im down...how about art is he going to this? maybe he will want to meet up as well

[Celicav]

id be down, where are you looking to meet?

This guy drove like 100K miles in his Celi last year lol, so this is no big drive for Jason. Plus, Jason respects me for driving all the way to Massachusetts for the CSP meet. Damn I am getting lucky that this is in Va Beach. I only have to drive like 15 miles to get there.

[Tigawoods]

im down...how about art is he going to this? maybe he will want to meet up as well

i keep forgetting to ask him, i will let him know

well i know from new stanton to the area where most of us reside is a 3 1/2 hour trip
i go to cal so the drive is pretty simple, turnpike, then get off and u are pretty much right in the area where we would meet. i will have to think of a specific area

[Tigawoods]

well from new stanton to VA beach is 6 1/2 hours. from lancaster which is the gen. area where we would meet is about 5 1/2 hours from VA beach. so your overall trip would be about 8 1/2 - 9 hours...if you would meet up with us

this is weird...same as me..i have a purple coupe at school...when i went home over break i was drivin down my street and i saw a yellow one..so i followed him for a little while caus i was bored, turned around and as im pulling back into my drive way another black hatch goes past...pretty weird....but ANYWAY if we were to meet up i think it would be easier for everyone to meet at a spot along 95 on the way down there at like a specific time..instead of everyone driving to meet up because for some people it might be out of the way...if we were all on our way down and just pulled into a rest area on 95 i think it would be easier that way...just my .02

[Tigawoods]

we would all have to exchange numbers at some point to be able to know who makes it to a certain rest stop first

[95st-celica]

indeed...soo whoever in the philly/lancaster/new york/whereever is closest to thos countys wanna meet up and drive down to virgina....PM either me or tiga with your number and we'll make it happen...figure a rest stop not to far down on 95 we can meet u n then cruise down together that way

[dagreat1]

anyone wanna make a fla convoy?

[Tigawoods]

make a new thread

[robdrummer]

If I go, I am defenetly taking the orange celica. as far as this group convoy, i can plot a good route and upload it so you guys can take a look. let me know what you think.

[jason]

i think if we plan on meeting somewhere around the philly airport... like on a ramp just off 95, that way its somewhat easy to get to, and ive done the whole waiting thing before with a lot of other people waiting for flights. or we should aim to meet up at some restaraunt, n all get some grub, pee n whatnot then head out as a group.

sounds good, so we can all meet up in philly first, then go to va. we need to get a time where we are all going to meet so people will be somewhat on time...

[draysniro]

Hey, I'm new to the site and the area (Lancaster). How big is this meet in VA, and when is it exactly?

[Tigawoods]

damn u arent that far from me! im in downingtown, coatsville area, look at the Official East Coast Celica meet thread. we are expecting around 25+, its june 27th-29th, but again the thread has more details

[95st-celica]

there will prolly be more the 25 people there with just celica's...but all together theres gonna be a lot...i know a couple people are comming with me that dont drive celicas...so it should be a pretty big meet in general....as for the meet in philly to cuise down that def. sounds like a good plan...that way we are all together...im tryin to think of a good restraunt to meet up at..there really isnt much on 95 past the philly international...theres a million on northeast philly if you's wanna do that....a couple good ones that i know of right off of the 95 exit...the dineing car on frankford ave would work if yous are interested?...when you come off the ramp you make a laft and take it down like 2 blocks and its on your right...and it'd be very simple to get back onto 95 from there....if yous want directions from where ever you are comming from i can give them to you...just let me know

[Tigawoods]

^true that, i got 2 cars coming with me

[jason]

if your new to the site, and you are not sure about going, i highly recommend that you do. you will definitely like your car alot more, plus it is a very good group of people. a 6 hour drive isint that far, especially if the usual radio chatter is going on. your on the way for me, and right around tiga, so if you needed some help thats not a problem. i have nav, and its a straight drive.

pm and plan to come out! welcome to bring a friend/gf or two.

[Tigawoods]

im down for bringing a gf or two haha

[robdrummer]

[93celicagt-s]

well since im from the philly area...chees steaks, or chikies and petes if we wanna get there in a hurry

[jason]

i dont think lagos is going.

how about we meet up at like king of prussia or something. or if you pick a place, make sure you can get a physical address (to punch into nav)

[Tigawoods]

yeah he never posted up. KOP is good for me

[93celicagt-s]

kop is perfectly fine by me we can just meet at the movie theater or something but kop is like 20 mins so im perfectly fine with that. any one else wanna meet up at king of prussia

[robdrummer]

i'm going with this idea... you tell me where and what exact time u think you'll be there and i will bring my pitt guys and meet u there. just look out for a bright orange celica and a blue is300

[Tigawoods]

dave is coming!?!

[robdrummer]

dave is coming!?!

i've talked him into going and he's going to see if me and him can stay with his sister but yeah.... this will be sick. i also want him to go along if i have problems with the car

[Tigawoods]

damn count me in stayin with his sister if there is a possibility. i am a small boy who doesnt take up much space

[lagos]

i dont think lagos is going.

This meet is still like a good 5 months away. I'll decide for sure in 4 months.

as for the younger people looking to attend - this isint going to be a honda club meet (sorry to stereotype) - there isint gonna be street racing, burnouts, or any sillyness like that

however, there is more than likely going to be some nightlife done responsibly.

if you are going to act out of line then thats on you, but there will be a big enough opportunity for you to do so. noone will encourage you, they will all probably discourage you from being an idiot.

that being said -

there is a meet in at a sonic in ephrata for those who are in the area. gives you a good chance to come out n meet some of the celica people on here. should be a good time and if you like it (which to be honest that will prolly suck compared to an east coast celica meet) but it will still be fun, you can then base that on if its worth it to make the journey.

ive got nav comin out my anal cavity in my car btw! just all try n pitch in, or help out with cb's so we can all be in touch (food, pee breaks, pictures, etc)

[Tigawoods]

i will bump the thread if need be

im not sure if that younger people comment was leaning towards me post but just because im 17 does not mean that im lookin to goof off and burn out and street race. ive read the info about it and i know what this meet is about. Is it that big of deal if a 17 year old wants to socialize with people from this forum and possibly learn knew thing?

[Tigawoods]

i remember when i was startin to go to meets when i was 17 with my car, i just layed low until i got to know everyone. just be smart about sh**, if not you'll gain a bad rep. just relax chill hang out. no actin a fool and you will have a good time
