Where are the NorCal meets??? Options

[Akira_g4]

Ever since I got my 01 GTS I'm hardly on here any more. But I decided to check out the meets and see if anyone is planning a NorCal meet. But guess nobody is planning one out I did one around this time last year, and 6strngs did before that so I hope someone is going to step up to the plate and plan something out

[azn87]

Hey guys, I've been MIA for the past month pretty much. But I guess I can post this once . I'm not on the forum much anymore. A meet in Fresno sounds like a good idea, BUT it's just not going to happen. If people were willing to drive that far for a Celica meet, then we would see more meets. We have problems getting people to drive for 1 hour away. Not to mention that we barely have any members from Fresno, and it would make more sense to have those few members drive up North, rather than have the larger group drive down to meet with 1 or 2 people only. Personally, I think the only West Coast Celica meet that deserves a NorCal caravan for a long ass time would be the SoCal Chino Hills meet.

I'm still getting situated with everything, and I haven't been able to organize any meets yet, as I barely know the way around.....anywhere. So just update AZN87 and he will update me on everything regarding the meet. I will most likely roll in with him as I've already met him, and I know CAMAricer lives right by me, so we have a mini carvan already . I'm not sure who else lives around the area, but I'll see what we can do. Takes about 1 month to organize a good meet, but I'm going to need some ideas of what you guys would like to do? I would atleast like to meet a few of you NorCal members while I'm up here.

[Akira_g4]

hey if u guys need any help ill be around

[MaskedMan]

hey if u guys need any help ill be around

Do it up

[CAMAricer]

Someone call my name?

I'll definitely be down for a meet. Ask some of those who know me, they'd tell you that I'd drive hundreds of miles just to show up for 30 minutes at a Celica meet

But my poor baby's pretty much beat up...ding/dented all around

well 6strgns has a blown engine so hes out,wat about cama??

Derrick, you live down the street from me...3 miles, haha. We might "accidently" caravan on any given day...

BTW, anyone know of any good batting cages in the Peninsula area? I need to take out my frustrations from work this week.

The bay area has some very nice places for photo ops and meets (Treasure Island was neat...). Sonoma has the racepark and drag nights on Wednesdays. Marin's got the park. Also there's plenty of places to just cruise (along the 1, north or south bay). A BBQ would be nice too, it being summer and all and how I missed the SoCal one . Let set a date for August (9th or 16th). And get a sign up list up too. So I guess I'll just set up the framework for this meet and you guys can add on to it. In the meantime, I'm going to scout out places suitable for this meet tomorrow...

Where: TBD

When: August 9th or 16th

Description: Hanging out with fellow 6GC from NorCal, a mini meet & greet, some food, photos/video, and a cruise.

Caravans:
North bay -
East bay -
South bay -
Peninsula - Maskedman, CAMAricer

Attending:
1) CAMAricer - Nam

ill try to get it off aug 16 day after my B-day haha

[CelicaST_CALI]

hahah the fact i cant drive until the 28th....hahaha youngest norcal celi ftw!!!!

[CAMAricer]

Can't drive until the 28th? Well that just plain suck. We'll have to plan something later this year then for you if you can't make it to an early one...

hahah the fact i cant drive until the 28th....hahaha youngest norcal celi ftw!!!!

On a separate but related note...

I went out driving (for fun and to look for meet spots) today and spent about a good 3 hours in the Marin Headlands and the Golden Gate National Recreation area. And DAMN was that fun!!! Too bad it was in broad daylight and there were a couple of cars on the road that couldn't go nearly as fast as the posted speed limit (35MPH on a mountain road isn't that fast, now is it?) but once they got out of my way, I was tearing it up through the corners as fast (and safely) as I could. Surprisingly, I found it hard just to keep my speed at 35 the entire way (wonder what kind of car those road engineers were driving?).

I made it to Stinson beach before deciding to head back. There was nice parking lot next to the beach (maybe a neat place for a meet?). Then I made my way up and down the roads (Panoramic highway) until I looped back to the 1 before joining back to the 101 and back towards the Golden Gate bridge. Now I must say that the ride wasn't the least bit comfortable...I was slipping and sliding in my seat, arms tense on the wheel, foot constantly on the brakes, eyes darting out in front of me, it was intense. But hell it sure was fun.

I was wondering if there is anyone who like to join me on my "cruises" throughout the twisty and winding roads of North Bay? I might do this bi-weekly/monthly as time/money permits. I'd also like to have a go at night too (just to see how it's like). So besides these larger annual/semi-annual meets, perhaps some of you want to just drive together for fun?

[CelicaST_CALI]

ehhh,mabye as a place to go to after the meet,but i dont think we should have that as the only thing...

[Akira_g4]

I'm down for a cruise, just tell me when and ill try makeing it

[ZEROCOOL]

ssooooo......r we doin somethin before summers over???
i thinkin we should just go bak to treasure island n have a bbq, cause if we do dat my brother would go wit his celica.

[CAMAricer]

Well if people can start confirming dates in which they can attend a meet, it would make things alot easier to try to arrange this meet

I know it hard to accommodate everyone's schedules, so why don't you guys throw out dates in which you could attend a meet?

I'm basically free each weekend (Sat or Sun) of every month (and some Fridays as well), so any of those dates would be fine. Treasure Island would be a good place to go to since it's easy to locate and has plenty of places to park (afterward we can drive almost anywhere for those who want to take a cruise).

So as soon as I get an idea of when people can make it to this meet, I can post up the official "NorCal Summer Treasure Island BBQ meet" thread. And if I can find a place to make some shirts (or towels/caps/etc), I can hand those out as gifts at the meet too.

***Side notes for the unofficial Marin mountain "attack" trips***

CelicaST_CALI, I just checked how far you were from me...that's a good 2 hour drive? So if we were to head into the mountains, what time would be best for you (daytime/evening/night)?

And Akira_g4, how's your schedule look like? And the above question also applies to you as well

If we head into Marin, we should meet at a designated location first (depending where everyone is coming from). Let me know so we can hammer something out. I'm thinking in two weeks (the weekend of August 2nd) or possibly after our NorCal Celica meet (whenever that happens).

[6strngs]

well, I may have a blown engine in my 6gc, but I'd still be down to go to a meet with my new alltrac if you guys don't mind having a non-6gc with you. I'm definately down for a drag race, I'd like to see what this thing's got. Or just chilling. whatever is cool with me. I'm starting a new job on monday so I'm not exactly sure what my schedule's gonna look like yet, but I know for sure I'll be available on Sundays, and later in the evenings.

at the pleasanton in n out, there is an import night every thursday at 7. Enjoi

Do you ever head out there Jeff? I'm out there almost every week but I've never seen you there. I usually don't go until 8:30-9:00 though cause people don't really start turning out until it's dark anyway.

[Akira_g4]

Well usually i never get weekends off so i have to request it off. but the longer i wait to request it off the less of a chance ill be able to get it off. Nathan don't worry you wont be the only non 6gcer there it would be cool to see a drag race between your all trac and my GTS. haha that'd be tight!

Cool, I did not know about this haha. But yeah sounds good. I will have to let you know though because I just had an interview at a Toyota Dealer today so I don't know what my work schedule is going to be like (if I get the job *wishes*). If I don't work that day though, most likely I will be free to hang out.

Sorry about that, I don't have a chance to come on as much anymore. I thought I would never fill up my PM box after they were upgraded, but nope, it still fills up just as always. Thanks for the update, it's amazing that it will be here tomorrow. Exciting . I would PM you for the tracking number, but by the time I read your reply, the package will probably already be here haha.

And Daniel, everything gets shipped to this house! I will let you know when your stuff comes in.

[azn87]

[CAMAricer]

Okay, so I'm going to start the "official" NorCal mini-meet thread 'cause Derrick hijacked this one! Haha, joking.
