MidWest Meet v69.420, August 19th 2023 Options

[navseal345]

As of right now I'm thinking we go somewhere else? I recall before the coof hit, the idea of Devil's Lake state park in Wisconsin.

OR

The old tried and true Lone Point Shelter.

I'm down with either, April is out for me but I should be available for anything else. I haven't been to Wisconsin in forever, last time I was there it was because my dads car broke and we had to hop a barbwire fence to use the phone at a cattle inseminator to call a tow. Fun times!

[Bitter]

Tangential, I'm planning to Dragon sometime in August if anyone wants to meet up down there. I'll be snagging my California friend from an airport along the way, a bit bummed he won't drive his GRolla across the country but understandable.

[navseal345]

I'll drive his GRolla across country for him.

[CoolZeen]

on may?

[Bitter]

I'm open for anytime I'm not going to be busy. Lol.

[punkxrckprincess]

We're out May / June / July in full. If there's a late summer meet after August 8th we can make it.

[navseal345]

Well damn.

[CoolZeen]

ok then august should be. I have to check my car show dates , to see which Saturdays are open for me

Ya'll going to jail or something? "we're going on a cruise for 6-8 months, 4 with good behavior"

Nice, we've got tickets to see Offspring, Sum41, and Simple Plan in August. I'm old so I remember Offspring and she likes Canadian boys.

Def out on that one, sorry. 3 person business is down to 2 and we don't know when the other is going to be back yet so stuff is all getting pushed back. If that was like Aug/Sept maybe. I didn't even know you got another Celica, congrats!

[CoolZeen]

for now is august then. Everybody check which Saturday yall got open .

[Bitter]

26th is Offspring so I'm out that day. Evidently she got us 'good seats' because I'm old and I don't want to stand that long.

We'll probably be there. Depends on my financial woes post tour. I quit my full time job in October and am expecting to drop a huge amount on Blink tour lol.

Ugh I'm buying a replacement for the 1998 Mazda 626, I feel sort of your pain. I'll be literally quantum leaping to a car that's 20 years newer so that'll be nice but the hole in my bank account won't be so nice. How much oatmeal can I mix in with my ground beef before it's just beef flavored oatmeal?

I'm eyeballing a Mazda 3 late 3rd gen or early 4th gen, nothing crazy just something smaller and good on gas. The little 2.0 is plenty of engine for a commuter car, I'd considered a Civic but I just can't CVT and I hear they're higher to insure...also CVT.

[navseal345]

I also agree with August or September?

Lost the job this week that I had for 9.5ish years, but luckily found a new one quick. So everything starts over, lol.

I like the newer Mazdas. More a fan of the 6.

I'll update the thread.

[Bitter]

Everybody getting through these storms OK?

In other news I'm getting a new daily to replace the old Mazda. 190hp, 13:1 compression, should do just fine.

Just crazy windy & temperatures undecided where it wants to be at.

[CoolZeen]

everybody is ok with settling for august 19?

[Bitter]

Good by me so far.

[CoolZeen]

so we set august 19.

[CoolZeen]

change the title with the official date. I will start spreading the word.

[NetsToy]

I'm good for August 19th. Did we choose a location?

[Bitter]

Anyone else still going or am I having a good time by myself? 😄

[navseal345]

Won't be able to make it, big sad...You're going to have a good time by yourself. I'll be in Chicago in late October but it's for family.

Bring me one of those weird meat logs you were talking about, just chuck it out the window while you're coming in on I-80 and I'll catch it.


Kid I used to work with wants to tag along in his Camaro, so if you see a dark blue Camaro that's way too low with a very very much 17 year old kid...that's him. He wants to see some real JDM cars.

[CoolZeen]

you wont be alone. hopefully i have 2 other celicas tagging along with me.

[Bitter]

I mean it wouldn't be the first time I went and no one else came More road for me!

[navseal345]

Next meet should be a hang out & we all work on each other's car. I'd be alright with taking a few days off to bull**** & work on cars.

Mine is not like the others though.

[navseal345]

Not like it hasn't stopped you before, lol.

Sometimes I'm just not motivated enough to work on my own car after working on other people's stuff.

[Bitter]

Same. Not looking forward to a month of lunch hours doing my timing job but such is life.

[Bitter]

Are we bringing food to eat at the meet or just going out for like late lunch/early dinner? I'm good with either.

[CoolZeen]

i will bring my cooler with water and drinks , but it looks like our usual chefs are not coming.

[Bitter]

Rootbeer stand works for me but really I'm good to eat anywhere and anything. I mean if someone wants to stuff I don't mind cooking but I don't know how many there's going to be to cook for, I don't think that young guy with the Firebird is coming out. Probably good tho, not sure he'd stay on the road.

[Bitter]

That was nice, can someone post up or link up some of the pictures?

[punkxrckprincess]

Look I logged in on my phone.

I have a handful of photos but I don't use hosting sites anymore so I am useless.

[nics]

I will try to join next year!

Just got my celica registered again, after 6 years in the garage!

Heck yeah. Who knows, we might do something again by the city or something before car season is over.

[punkxrckprincess]
