I live about 15-20 mins away from it...thats why i want everyone to meet at my house because it would be awesome to have a huge caravan go down there!

[airfron]

montclair is kind of out of the way for me though

'ello SoCal friends . The Japanese classic car show is bomb! So is drifting... Formula D is really cool because they have a larger selection of better models. But classic japanese car show has more cars to see. You'll have a lot of fun at Formula D walking around and looking at the vendors and taking pictures with the models and cars.

[azn87]

[MarcoGTS]

[MaskedMan]

I actually might not be able to make it. I just got invited to a friend's wedding the week after, so I think it's either one event or the other, and haha I think a wedding is somewhat more important .

[azn87]

Will I ever get to meet Derrick?

[MarcoGTS]

So there might be some changes...due to the fact that i now work at TOYOTA and I have to work on SATURDAYS.......so i thought that since formula d starts at 2pm and ends at 10pm, and i get off at 5 pm. we should all meet up at my job at TOYOTA!!! like at 5! so its also a little bit eaiser to find because it says "CLAREMONT TOYOTA" when you pass the 10 freeway! and then we can take a couple of pics before we caravan to Formula D. Does that Sound good for everyone??!! oh yeah and before we leave from toyota theres a chevron right next to it if we need to go get gas just in case..Thanks!

YES! Because I only put Chevron Gas! WOOO! well I guess 3 hours later isn't that bad. I bet we will pass up a long wait getting in too. They better have some eats there! I know my azz will be hungraaaaaaaaaaaay!




So that's all who's coming huh? No Crazy Azz Christie, and um..... No Jazzy Jeff? Those are the only ones I met, sorry. WHO ELSE? Well I guess their loss. Oh yeah! No Yuchen?

[windowlicker]

Man that sucks, I was really looking forward to meeting you too! Remember?! We talked about you coming to a MEET?! It's cool. have someone take photos of you for us tearing it up on the dirt, ya?

[EuroFire03]

Hey everyone I'd like to come but its so far from San Diego! If anyone wants to caravan up there from SD I'd probly consider going. Anyone wanna go?

[windowlicker]

i'm sure we can plan another meet, i had something in mind that i think you guys would like if we can get enough people. i was thinking of cruising up pch around malibu. maybe pull off and get some good pics by the ocean.

hhmm...... Those places I have never been before. When? Fall and Winter are coming. Spring?

[windowlicker]

maybe we should start a poll to see what works for most people. i would lean maybe towards sometime in november or january since december is a really hectic month for everyone.

reason i suggested malibu is cause when i had an srt4, we did a cruise up pch to oxnard and we had an assload of srt's with us. i'm guessing probably between 30-50 and it was cool seeing a bunch of the same cars cruising together. after the cruise we went to a guy's house and had a bbq/install party. maybe we can find like a state park or something and have a little bbq after the cruise. just throwing out the idea.

[eggman40]

id be down to roll

[j0e_p3t]

put me down as a maybe. just started the nursing program this semester so school is already kicking my ass.

[MarcoGTS]

Sounds good then. Looks like I might either dope myself on energy drinks for the ride home after, or I might look into getting a room and staying the night there or around. Now I HAVE to bring someone. Cuz staying in a room out of town as a loner kinda blows.

[k-weaver]

I've yet to go to a meet. Once I got on this website and noticed that you guys get together it has been on my to do list. I can just imagine a bunch of celica's driving down the street, people in other cars and on the sidewalk stairing at us....

Put me down as a for sure maybe, I should have a definite answer in the VERY near future.

[Random_Stranger]

Now I gotta go into the Maybe Category. Need money for my car to be fixed. Need front bumper and RH fender. :-(

[xs94st]

Now I gotta go into the Maybe Category. Need money for my car to be fixed. Need front bumper and RH fender. :-(

ey man i was plannin on going to pick a part this morning but woke up to late :rollseyes:

i'll probably go tomorrow morning and i'll see if there are some fenders n bumpers for us that way you wouldn't have to worry about shipping too much

Hey, I really appreciate that. A guy has a remanufactured bumper for $120, $79 for the shipping. Not sure if that is a good route or not. I need to get this thing going. The look of my RH projector would give me a problem driving at night. Thank God I ordered that new upper radiator support bar.

[MarcoGTS]

dang bro!! what happened????

[k-weaver]

Ok guys, count me in as a for sure.

[EuroFire03]

Hey guys I'll be in for sure IF someone can drive up with me. Im notorious for going wrong on the So Cal freeways. So anyone?? (Im in San Diego)

[MarcoGTS]

OK everyone! sorry, ive been busy but im back! yeah so ITS FOR SURE WE ARE GOING TO MEET AT MY JOB AT EXACTLY 5 PM! oh yeah, FORMULA D also changed their price to $30 at the door. SO SAVE UP EVERYONE! but im sure its WORTH IT! umm if anyone needs my number just PM me so just in case you might get lost you can contact me. My job is very easy to find. its just off the 10 freeway with a BIG sign that says CLAREMONT TOYOTA on it.

umm Eurofire, not to be rude or anything, but buying a GPS helps out a whole lot! but anyways yeah i dont know anyone thats going thats from san diego.

[EuroFire03]

No its kool I just dont wanna get their late and you guyz are already gone. I'll try to make it though if I can. Can you PM me your # and address just in case Thnx.

[k-weaver]

I got some pics of my car and Marco's parked on the drag strip....




And here is one of us on the freeway....


I took some pics of the actual race but none of them came out good...

[Random_Stranger]

MORE! MORE! MORE! DIdn't more people go? Dude! You guys parked on the drag strip?! MAN! If I had gone, this thread would be filled with videos, pictures, you would think you were on a preview for the DVD like it was Faceoff 2 or something.

Only 3 people total where there, and am not sure where the other dude parked at....

I parked in the middle of the whole parking lot lol....and was one of you wearing a i heart boobies shirt? Oh and i was standing on the left side when you guys were driving in.....i was wearing a green flannel jacket.

WHAT?! Only 3?! Ah man. I bet they went to that Chino Hills thing then. That blows. Well, I will go to the next meet, I should be able to by then (assuming another few months from now) and perhaps we can plan something huge. Then again, what else can you really do? Sometimes you want to be around your cars and then at the same time, you all want to have fun together. I dunno. I can only think of bbq's, amusement parks, the beach (would be awesome for pics, like Santa Monica I think at least) or like a car event. I think this had plenty of time to plan though, and deserved more than just a few members.

Well, from the Chino hills pictures, it looks like only 1 6gc attended. As for a large meet where you stand by your cars, then Autobacs is a great place to meet. Amusement park is fun, but not so much for a meet. Large groups get split up as there is so much to do, and not everyone will want to do the same thing, and with the long wait times in lines, it just doesn't work well. Beach is always fun, but you gotta find the right time because I believe last time we tried this, parking was nearly impossible for all the members who showed up. BBQ is fun if you can get everyone to bring stuff, but it takes more organizing. It's easier to go to a buffet or something. Pictures need to be organized, or else it wont happen. If you lived up here, then you could just come over and hang out because I have not much else to do up here haha. It's always a Celica meet in front of my house anyways .

[Random_Stranger]

That is true Derrick! ^^^

[j0e_p3t]

i thought there'd be more pics of the girls. so far i count... none.
