here is the info for the hotel, incase people want to sleep over like last time
http://www.motel6.com/reservations/motel_d...sp?MotelId=1280

its about 70 bucks a night.

the hotel is right ouside of philly. same spot as last year. its a lot cheaper then staying in philly and there is plenty of parking.

if your staying at the hotel, get to it first and check in. ill meet up with you guys there and we can drive down to the meet together. everyone else, just go to FDR park and we will see you there.

[brianforster]

depending on the status of my car around then i might go to that, philly isnt too far from me

[Silver94CelicaOw...]

I'm totally in for another FDR meet, Art.

I think we'd probably have more of our people show on a Saturday if we organized it ourselves....I'd love to see some Supras again, and maybe we could hit up D&B's.


That Supra meet looks awesome though, I wish I could come...I already took off a weekend in early June to go to the LSP meet so I met my quota lol.....two weeks in a row is no good for me.

[lagos]

well thow out some dates and ideas. we can start up our own meet on another day. i probably get some of those supra guys there, as well as a huge tristatetuenrs crew, since they have meets every weekend around here.

[Silver94CelicaOw...]

Yea, I remember you mentioning meets at King of Prussia and what-not for TST.....I'd love to see a bunch of other cars come out too.


Well, here on the EC we have:

LSP meet on June 3rd
NJ Mega Meet (P.S.- Art, you should go... ) June 30 - July 2
NY state meet- July 15th



Maybe we can shoot for an end of July or early August sort of thing. Either way, I'm totally down.

[Drew-887]

I'll come to another FDR meet as long as I can get my car fixed in time. I think the meet should be in July or early August. That way more people could gather up for the meet.

[Silver94CelicaOw...]

Lets do this.

[devilsden97]

depending on the date, and the location...i may come (lol may...basicly it means unless its on the WC ill be there lol)

[lagos]

how about .... july 8th ?

[devilsden97]

how about .... july 8th ?

between DWG and bear mountain......idk, id like to get some meets going for august and late july, instead of having them all cramed into a 3 week period. But thats just me

[Supersprynt]

I could be down.

[Silver94CelicaOw...]

Early July is NJ meet, so it might be hard for the people comming to that to go to this a few days later because of work, etc.

Maybe early August/end of July??

[Supersprynt]

I dont work on the weekends so it doesnt matter for me.

IMO stack the meets and if you cant come, then no problem.

[devilsden97]

I dont work on the weekends so it doesnt matter for me.

IMO stack the meets and if you cant come, then no problem.

it is a problem if u wanna come, and u cant because the meets were stacked and you took 4 weekends off in a row.

[lagos]

how about july 22nd?

[devilsden97]

weekend after bear mountian......i guess, although id rather it be on the 29th of july or the first weekend of august. but i can settle with the 22nd (if i have to)

[hurley97]

i have [most] weekends off too so im good

[lagos]

i dont want to push it too far back. so unless the 22nd is a major problem for people, i think thats the date we should stick to . im sure whatever date we pick, some new meet will be planed the weekend before or after it anyway.

[ILuvMyCelica95]

hmmmmm lemme check.. wait i have no life lol this is good

EDIT: 29th is actually no good for me

[lagos]

ill see what i can do about the mega meet. i know i cant do all 3 days, but i might try for day 2 or 3 of the meet.


expect a huge trunout from the tristate tuners guys as well as some rx7 guys too. this should be as big if not bigger then last years philly meet.

Yea try to make it up that Saturday to DWG Art. I can give you perfect directions if you need them, its super easy heading north....that'll probably be the best day to come if you only make it one day.


I'm already stoked about this meet though, I love getting to see the other cars too. This is going to be a great time if its anything like last year.

[lagos]

i have a feeling this years meet will be HUGE

the trip is like 5 hours for me, so im making this an overnighter for me....not worth it to drive a total of 10 hours just to spend 5 or 6. Idk about everyone else but thats my story...second day i may go see the sights and what not...idk should be a blast tho.

[Silver94CelicaOw...]

Philly is an awesome city. My brother lives in Center City and I'm thinking about staying the night at his place that night if I can park for cheap.

I can't wait for this meet again, its going to be a blast.



PS- I demand a ride in a Supra this time.

[presure2]

Art,

[Silver94CelicaOw...]

I'll already be in Philly by Friday for a long weekend with my girlfriend, I'm staying the whole weekend right in Center City.

FYI - there is aPhillies game @ 1:20 that day - so expect a lot of traffic as you make your way there. I'll see if I can get there too. I'm not an avid contributor here, but come here quite often to see what's new.

thanks for the heads up, that could save alot of headaches.

[MaskedMan]

blah traffic, that means i will have to leave at like 5am now...blah! that gives my paint even less time to dry hahaha.

[hurley97]

ok so heres the deal with our room...

me and Tina are sharing a 2-bed room with Miguel (Devilsden97) and Steve (i believe thats your name, Consynx). the floor/other bed(however you guys decide to share the bed/floor) is reserved for Manny and Jenn (Presure2) if they can make it.

i will reserve the room on my credit card sometime next week (unless they have a problem with me being under 21). i'll split the final cost later when we are there and i know whos staying.

so we should be good, anyone else whos staying should make arrangements on their own

[Silver94CelicaOw...]

Hotel booked as of two days ago, right in Center City next to city hall. Haha, I guess I am the mayor....


I got two nights at a really nice hotel for me and the lady, we're making that weekend a little getaway for our 3 year anniversary. Should be a really nice weekend. However do realize I'll probably have to split later in the afternoon since we have plenty of other plans, plus I need to hit up my older brother's new apartment that weekend too at some point.


I can't wait, only 11 more days!

[MaskedMan]

ooo soo soon! i need to work my arse off to make it to this meet! im determined!

[Consynx]

? are you serious?
from CA?

[MaskedMan]

? are you serious?
from CA?

Yeah long story. I used to live in Ohio, but then i moved to LA last year and left my 6GC in Ohio. Im going back to Ohio next week. and then leaving from Ohio to go to the meet. ok so maybe it wasn't a long story afterall.

None at all man, not at all. All that stuff today actually turned into an outstanding technical thread and there's zero angst over that thread on my end. I was actually looking forward to meeting you the most, but looks like it'll have to be another meet.
