2009 So Cal Summer Meet on Sunday August 2nd!!, Meeting anywhere in la/riverside/orange county area Options

[BonzaiCelica]

alright so the last time there was a socal meet was in mid december of 2008. And there was only a total of 4 celicas that showed up including myself. This time i want it to be much bigger. At least 10 cars would be nice. I would want it to be on a Saturday or Sunday since i work mon-friday. Go ahead and let me know your guys scheduals and when you would be available so we can get a pretty good sized meet going.

Some things we can do :

-K1 Spped.
-Angeles Crest Highway/ortega highway canyons driving
-Cruise over to san pedro area where the long beach shipping docks are.
-Do some bbq at a park and hang out.

Anybody else got any ideas?

cant be between july 12 and 28 cuse ill be outta town Id like to go. driving down to the docks sounds cool... i havent been there in a long time but i remember a lot of restaurants on the edge of the marina. A bbq sounds cool too

[BonzaiCelica]

hey eggman 40. craig was telling me yesterday how you fixed your fuel lines or something cause your car wasnt starting up. Alright then thanks for letting me know when your available. Ill just give it sometime until members start responding to this topic.

[xs94st]

I will be there, given my car doesnt fall to pieces by then lol.

I work horrible schedules, but as long as I request a day off two weeks or a month in advance, I should be fine.

Btw, I saw a white 94 hatch with three cute girls on the freeway the other day before work. They followed me while I sped up a little and then they sped away after I said whats up to em and 'can I have yo numbah?!' haha jk.

[windowlicker]

i may be interested, but i don't think the canyon cruise would be the best idea. i think it would end badly as in someone either getting in an accident or getting a ticket. just past experiences talking. going to the docks or even going to the beach for a BBQ in huntington beach would be kinda cool too. photo shoots in the parking lot if we got some decent spots and the right lighting (close to sunset) would be awesome as well. i may even wash my car for the first time since christmas.........

[deliriouzgtfour]

newport? or huntington?

[BonzaiCelica]

haha really xs94st. thats a funny story. Can i have yo numbah haha thats funny.

ya canyon cruising is so so, but I know what you mean. I know a little route on the way towards san pedro that goes through some houses and climbs to the top so you can see all of the city. Theres also a parking lot near the top of the beach where we can take pics. I went there last time when there was some big honda meet a month ago.

i would choose huntington but thats just me

[xs94st]

Huntington would be my guess too. Either go straight down Beach Blvd or I'll just take Los Alamitos Blvd to PCH =)

[eggman40]

hey eggman 40. craig was telling me yesterday how you fixed your fuel lines or something cause your car wasnt starting up. Alright then thanks for letting me know when your available. Ill just give it sometime until members start responding to this topic.

yea i finally finished putting everything back together after a mild rebuild. I was having issues with my fuel filter but its cool now and it fired up. Id definitely like to head out now. I need to break my car since i rebuilt the head. But it would be nice to meet up with some members on here... lets try and set up something soon. Keep me posted. thanks!

[99Celica]

harbor, beach, canyon cruise, I'm down for whatever. I do work 10 hour shifts on the weekend tho, I'd have to try and get off.

[GMHAPPY29]

This sounds awesome guys. I don't think a meet will be put together in time before I move . As of July 1st I will be part of the Nor Cal group. If anyone is interested maybe we can do a Thursday night drag meet at Irwindale before I go. Keep me posted though. If the meet is big enough I might be willing to make the cruize back down here.

I would be okay with anything. Any of you following the toyota fest meet my car has been put back together but now I am spraying fuel from a small line. Should be fixed by Friday. So sad...

Ya when I get on the gas I smell fuel really bad . I have been ignoring it though . Of course I did have problems getting home from Toyotafest when I got on the freeway I nailed the gas and by the time I let up the car started to sputter and wanted to die. It was a long and stressful drive home on the 91 Frwy

[hata]

I'd like to go but I crashed my car. Again. lol when does it end!? ><

[windowlicker]

Huntington would be my guess too. Either go straight down Beach Blvd or I'll just take Los Alamitos Blvd to PCH =)

lots of parking in different spots down pch and beach access areas in that general area. plus there are quite a few places to get food down there too if we didn't want to do a picnic/bbq.

[BonzaiCelica]

alright guys i guess the meet will be around the beginning of August.

So can everybody start giving me dates and times that they are available from so we can get things more organized as the time passes by.

ive created a list of members that live in Southern California along with the cities they live in and the last day they logged onto the website. I was kinda dissapointed in how little the last meet was (not including the members that said they were going but could not make it since some last minute things came up that were emergencies)

[tomazws]

Come on, lets have a huge meet!!!

[windowlicker]

<---in costa mesa

a big meet would be fun. i still have yet to go to a celica meet.

[hongkongnerdboy]

am i not in riverside?!

[MaskedMan]

am i not in riverside?!

No. You're not.

[deliriouzgtfour]

orange county over here

[BonzaiCelica]

hey hongkongnerdboy, i did not put you on the list becuase you told me you had crashed your car. maybe you can get a ride with another member?

ya i didnt put some people that i know are active on the forums. i just people that log on every once in a while but do not reply to any posts or topics.
I remember when i first started on the site i got to the toyota fest 2007 and i saw two members from 6gc arrive 2 min after i parked my car. they asked me if i had checked the meet/event discussion topics and i had no clue what they talking about becuase i had only joined the site a month priorer to attending toyota fest.

So maybe if we can message those people on the list i posted we can get more members to show up at the meet?

[xs94st]

I am from the cerritos area. Yeyuh.

[nics]

Im not in San Diego either LOL

[windowlicker]

<----is going to the super autobacs (now super autotoyz) grand reopening tomorrow (saturday 6/20). should be there in the afternoon, so if you see me there, stop by and say hi.

[BonzaiCelica]

ill be there in tomorrow at 9:30 to do my alignment. Ill probably be upstairs sleeping on the table while i wait for my alignment or go to cycle parts west which is right next door.

haha so sad that autobacs went out of business. and what a stupid name huh, the place is now owned by some mexicans...

I liked Autobacs as much as the next guy, but it's no mystery why they went out of business. It was just an attraction for car enthusiasts and nobody really bought anything because the prices are so darn expensive there. I would like I feel like I contributed a little bit buy purchasing a radio from them and having them install it , but sad to hear what has happened to it. How do you know it's owned by Mexicans now? Did their inventory of large chrome rims and other various chrome parts for Honda Civics increase?

Hmm it's weird watching a SoCal meet being put together and me not being a part of it . It was a little over a year ago when the SoCal crew was booming, but then everyone just started leaving, crashing/selling/parting their Celicas, or just simply dropped off the face of the 6gc map. I hope this meet turns out really well for you guys because most of the people posting here are Celicas I've never seen before, so please take pictures .

[99Celica]

any updates? If it's gonna be on the weekend I've gotta try to get the day off in advance

[BonzaiCelica]

ya i bought radios for my car there, some tires, speaker, i contributed to the place a little. but yes i agree not really a place to buy from just to hang out and watch best motoring vids and to have meets like you said. yes i asked an employee why the name changed. she said it was owned by mexicans now and that they did not let the employees choose the name of the store. So their family chose the name. And yes there are 24 inch rims and grills, an engine from a chevy sitting on display.

ya hopefully we can get something going. Im still waiting for people to tell me when they are available i have weekends off. So 99 celica i dont know what else to say. people aren't putting forth any input as to what we should do or letting me know what days they are available. So i guess we will just have to wait it out...

[MaskedMan]

You should try to contact Random Stranger. We were supposed to get a meet together around this time, but my schedule got too busy. However, I still have something planned for later this year..

[windowlicker]

the new owner of autobac/autotoyz is the same guy that owns the company "matirx" that make a lot of cheap/ebay quality parts. heard this from a reliable source that supplies them with goods. the store was really lacking in selection last weekend and the car show wasn't really that great either. prices are still pretty much unchanged from when it was autobacs. looks like they just need time to kinda get things running right and make changes in some spots to make it a successful business.


i'm still up for a more organized celica meet though.

[Toyota_Celica_97]

im too far north =(

[MaskedMan]

im too far north =(

How far up North are you talking?

[BeefyT]

Sup guys I'm gonna be at irwindale today like at around 6....me and a few of my friends are gonna race for the first time lol....I'm gonna race my friends integra gsr and he's gonna let me run it once..should be fun....you guys should go

[eggman40]

we still trying to make this happen?

[dlx742]

i'd be down for a socal meet. just give me a few weeks notice so i can get off work and i'll be there

[BonzaiCelica]

Im still waiting on people to give me notice so that we can plan on getting something organized. people keep on asking if its going down or when are we doing this, but no one puts the days that they are available. So theres not much i can do....

[xs94st]

I say saturday august 1st.

Cuz I get paid that friday, its a month in advance, and I can request it off.

Everyone just put dates of weekends that you are available, then we can get a concensus of a weekend we can all agree upon.

[k-weaver]

I'm in Santa Barbara county and i'm totally down for a meet as long as a good group of people go. I'll be on vacation starting 07/18 and would prefer to do it then. Otherwise weekends work best since I always have those off. We should totally do this...

People start posting your days so we can get somthin going!!!

[windowlicker]

weekends in august werk for me.

[BeefyT]

yoooo wats up guys we should have a meet at the irwindale speedway.....pretty fun over there alot of cars meet up and theres alot of good races they have a king taco and drinks and funnel cakes . you can run your car for 20 bucks or watch for 10. a bunch of my friends go every other thrusday.

[ZEROCOOL]

ill b n la oct 30 31 for monster massive...if yal wanna meet lolz

[Random_Stranger]

You should try to contact Random Stranger. We were supposed to get a meet together around this time, but my schedule got too busy. However, I still have something planned for later this year..

Bing! LOL I am so self conscious about my car lately, but I will try to roll through. I just have to worry about saving up for a Vegas trip in August and a Cruise in September, and I plan on attempting to get myself either a front clip or only the 3sgte engine this year.

Anyway, Derrick, you got my number dude. I hardly hop on daily, so maybe you guys can just text me or something. I know one of you guys sends a text every now and then, but only to say what's up and nothing after that. LOL Anyways, Text or call is the way to go. Derrick, if you got something planned for later this year, try not to wait too too long, you know that I-5/Grapevine is what determines who makes it there and who doesn't, when in rainy, or any other extreme temperatures around Fall/Winter.

[markie]

in the process of figuring out things for my swap.

probably be ready closer to fall of 2009 =/

[urbandork]

i see my name is already added... lol im down in n e case just as long as we have enough time to request off..... get a date set asap and dont move it around .... lets make this happen

[99Celica]

[xs94st]

Dates any1? I know I said August 1st, yall should just throw some ideas out there so we can get this thing rolling..hell, I think we should go to the beach and do a bonfire all day and kick it, get to know each other cause theres nothing better than food + beach + cars. =)

[BeefyT]

I think thats a great idea.

We need sum1 to step up and manage this meet

[urbandork]

next two sundays are out for me thats the 12th and 19th

[xs94st]

How's August for you Craig? If Saturdays are a no go for some cause of work or whatever, we can move it to a Sunday if it makes it easier for everyone.

[xs94st]

And what's up Chris haha, how was Irwindale?

Where is everyone at??

So many peeps were all up on this before askin bout the meet! =\

[urbandork]

august should be good just as long as we know ahead of time. we should get a date finalized asap. if its guna be in august. perhaps like the 1st (sat) or 2nd (sun) or the week after that which is the 8th or the 9th.

Also not sure if a meeting point has been finalized or itinerary.

It is california and many times we end up at the beach.... if we do an all day thing we could always do a beach cruise hit up Neptunes Net (shrimp place in fast and the furious). Then head over the hills via malibu canyon to angeles crest hwy and hit up Mt Wilson or simply find a chill spot on mulholland over looking the beach..... or head back down to santa monica peir and do that pacific park/arcade area (parking is guna be 10 bucks all day but we probably will find space for all of us together)

not sure what time neptuns net closes but if we make it early we perhaps can meet up in long beach, then cruse up to Venice to get lunch, then hit up Santa Monica for pacific park/arcades/chilling on the beach, then continue north and hit up Neptunes net for a supper kinda deal, and then if ppl are still down hit up angeles crest or find a place on mulhulland (with out getting to crazy on the canyons that is)

we could do a bbq somewhere too... perhaps up in the mountains.. however finding somewhere our cars can access might be iffy

theres also speedzone if all else fails and dont forget shooting pool in korea town and some late night snacks

just some ideas

[LewFX]

im near k-town!

[BonzaiCelica]

ok guys. nice input, we have to get this going. Craig youve got some good ideas, i would prefer k1 speed over speedzone. although those drift cars at speed zone are fun, they just need to be a bit faster.

ya the canyons sound cool, whoevers up to it and yes i know we got to keep it safe and put those tanabe coilovers to use (craig)

umm those dates sound fine, sat or sunday is fine, same thing to me. So august 1st or 2nd you guys pick, weekends are good for me...

[Random_Stranger]

Ok, you guys give a good landmark to meet at (since I won't know my way), 2-4wk notice (longer the better) and I will be there. My car isn't tip top, but I don't care, so long as I know I will make the drive and have some $$$ on me for the trip. That's why I need to know ahead of time.

[Random_Stranger]

im near k-town!

Lew you ain't going to go foo, are you? I hope you do. Now that no bad weather on the I-5, I can make the trip. I am going to feel funny, my car not in tip top shape, and exterior/paint wise, not nearly as good as when you first laid eyes on her. But whatever, it is a meet, for us enthusiasts, not a frigging car show for cash.

[xs94st]

Exactly, this isn't a car show, its a bunch of the Cali guys gettin together and chillin. My car is far from tip top, I have dents, horrible paint, and a cracked windshield ( which I am still lookin for a replacement, let me know if yall have found a celi at a pick a part, its only $40 =) )

I say August 2nd, its a Sunday, and cars are my religion. Haha.

Let us know how the 2nd sounds for everyone. Faust, don't worry man, doesn't matter how she looks, its still a Celica, our pride n joy

[dlx742]

all of that sounds pretty legit and i'd be there

[99Celica]

I'm diggin the beach/BBQ/cruise thing more than a car-parts store. Either way I'm interested tho.

[Random_Stranger]

I'm diggin the beach/BBQ/cruise thing more than a car-parts store. Either way I'm interested tho.

I'm down for that. I don't want to go to no car parts store either. Beach BBQ Cruise sounds good, I mean.... What else would car enthusiasts do? We wanna be by our cars, we want to meet up, hang out. What more could you ask for?

Also can I make a request? Can we please go somewhere good for shots/pictures? I am really looking forward to this and I am inspired by the East Coasters to want to take a camcorder and make a video, plus I really really really want to take pictures. Don't worry, even though I can't use Photoshop for $#!T, I won't let any flaws stand out on your car. I just need the experience.

alright guys i guess the meet will be around the beginning of August.

So can everybody start giving me dates and times that they are available from so we can get things more organized as the time passes by.

yes random stranger, we indeed need to take some nice pics. does anybody have an SLR Camera?

i have a go pro camera (if you guys know what that is). so ill mount that up on my car when we go driving so we can get some drive by's and what not.

[urbandork]

ok so is the sunday the 2nd set in stone now? if so ill ask for it off and we should change the title of the thread to include that date.

we also should start a list of ppl going for sure.

i was at a srt4 meet in newport beach and it was actually a great spot. it was out on the peninsula and right next to the beach. really easy to get to and was laid back. there were many places to eat within walking distance and the pier was right next to the parking lot. cops went through the lot a few times, but they never hassled any of us, only the people out on the beach with huge bonfires. just putting the idea out there as an idea.

I don't have a SLR camera, but I do want to take pics with mine and try to get some video in too. But I hope we can begin an annual North/South meet and switch up on location each year, in addition to whatever meets have have in the future.

I really would like it though if we hit up a nice beach and a nice drive. Plus some eats?! Oh hell yeah.

[xs94st]

Aiite cool, imma request the 2nd off tomorrow when I get into work, I'm just glad we got a date in. We can decide on a exact spot within these next few weeks.

[wilc4]

Hey all, saw this thread and I would be interested! I live out in Moreno Valley, CA (its near Riverside)

[xs94st]

Sup wilc4, how long have you lived out there? I used to live on the border of MoVal off Blaine n Iowa n then off of Fair Isle.

You ever see a white celica around there? =)

[Random_Stranger]

Hey all, saw this thread and I would be interested! I live out in Moreno Valley, CA (its near Riverside)

Then come on down to the meet! This is going to be my first official meet ever (yeah, I never even been to a CAR SHOW or a race track! LOL), so I want to take all the pictures and record all I can and pray enough people show up to make it really fun for future events.

[BonzaiCelica]

Alright, Date Changed Craig. Hmm, beach sounds good to me. I would like to go to k1speed if you guys want to. Its about $20 a race plus a yearly pass which is another $6. Maybe if we get a group of 10 or more we can get a discount at like $15 a race. Im not sure though, all i know is that if you buy 2 you get 1 race free.

I was going to return my camera, cause bro got fired from job, but i couldn't after all because best buy has a 2 week return policy and i surpassed it. So ill be bringing my Nikon Coolpix p90. its no slr, but one of the best digital camera's on the market right now.

wait um how do you change it so i can put the date??

Craig also talk to eggman 40 cause i know he wants to come as well but he hasn't replied yet... cause hes outta town right?

Not that I can speak for everyone else, and not entirely sure on what K1speed is even, but I am going to just note that not all of us are of that area, and that $20 could go towards contributing towards a BBQ if we decide to do that, plus the gas for a cruise (which sounds like a good idea for me). So I dunno.... I mean if Derrick came from all the way where he is, I doubt he would want to dish out $20 on top of his gas getting to the meet, you know? Again, not to discourage, but just to not put too many ideas out there other than a simple meet that is universal, and when I say universal, something we are all familiar with and nothing so much that caters to locals (as far as easy to access/do/etc..), you know? For instance, we wouldn't want to have a meet and all go to an arcade. You can go to the arcade by yourself and not everyone will want to be in an arcade. I know I would sit by my car the whole time if I wasn't familiar with the location. That's all I am saying....

[BonzaiCelica]

alright then keep it simple and to the point. just driving around (cause im sure we all love to do that) and then the bbq and smores. we'll just chat it up. play soccer (if any of you play it) throw around the football w/e. only 5 people so far. I know we should at least get another 5 to come.

I just might start messaging peope on that list to see if other members can make it since i know that most so cal members dont go on the forums all the time.

Hey A (Not going to reveal your first name in case you don't want people to know your true Identity, you Super Hero you... LOL)! You are from Craigslist, right? I am sending you this link anyways, but glad you joined if this is infact you. No too many Central Valley people up on here. Glad you made it. If you want, you can meet up with me in Bakersfield since you gotta come out this way to get out to the meet anyways and we can follow each other out there. I tried to recruit people from Bakersfield with a 6gc, but they get scared of me. Well, one guy did since I hit him up in drive through. I got out my car and he was behind me and I came up to him with a flyer... He did look scared and he never joined lol.

Anyways, I posted my number on here so you can call or text me if you decide you want to.

[ajmorris1977]

hey there, i would love to meet up and cruise down together, i cant wait to meet more like minded people, my cell number is (559) 972-3877 if you wanna text me or call, but i will be there on the 2nd without fail, looking forward to it.....ttys

Hey, I will hit you up like that Friday just to make sure. I hope we can get together early, because I love an early morning drive. I hate getting up at the crack of dawn, but GOD is it a nice drive! Anyhow, we meet up, roll out to Ventura, stop and get a bite to eat, and then we meet up with everyone. Or we can eat here or I can meet up with you somewhere inbetween if you like. I just don't have Navigation, so I get lost easy.... Actually that's not true, I don't get lost easy, but I fear it sometimes.

[trd_420]

what up my good irwindale track meet people it was fun the last meet havent been on the site for months but im back and exited about the next meet the beginning of august sounds good to me irwindale will be a good meet place on sunday also.. date is official august 2nd make a list count me in where ever all you wanna meet.

[Random_Stranger]

Honestly, it's cool to have meets like this, but I am kind of upset that we never really set up or started an Annual Meet for North and South. But I guess that's why they say East Coast just knows how to do it better, I thought we could pull it together. Then again, for some reason a lot of us on the West Coast seemed all pump for these things and then back out last minute. Hopefully we do have a good turn out. So whoever is going, hold yourself accountable and sign up on whatever list on this topic you can find and hold yourself accountable to show up.

Next to your name, post what you want to do for the meet, plus two other alternatives and we will take the majority vote on it and do exactly that. I think we meet up, bbq on or around a beach, chill for a bit, and then take a cruise, followed by pictures or whatever, and that will pretty much eat up most of the day believe it or not. But that is like an example. Because it seems people are still trying to suggest different things, so we make it straight to the point and a list of who is coming FOR SURE.

I am just suggesting, because maybe there might be people who don't want to do that and when they discover what it is, might find it difficult to have a good time because their plans are ruined. At any rate, it would be best to just have it set up so you know what exactly to expect. So I am going back to my name on the list and editing it.......

1. Bonzai
2. Random - Beach/BBQ, Cruise

Hey, I dunno my way out there, do you think maybe..... if it isn't too much trouble..... we just all roll out together to get the goods? I kinda feel funny about having an ice chest with stuff in the car with the possibility of water from the ice getting in my car, say the lid should pop up. And again, I don't know my way out there to be driving around areas that I may or may not belong in. Just asking, that way we can knock it all out then and there (I say we also get together early as well, or atleast those willing to bring things that needs chillin'). Oh wait! LOL I can just bring drinks and chips. Let me know what type of drinks you guys like then, and if the majority is going to go with just one type, or if is only us 7 (I think 2 24 packs should be good and if we have more people then I will buy more) then I will bring something else that is essential to our BBQ as well.


So quote this and I am going to toss out there two drinks that I am fond of. This will let me know what I need to get.
These are the drinks and chips that will be making their appearance to the meet LOL

Drinks:
Pepsi
Dr.Pepper


Chips:
Lays BBQ

[trd_420]

I dunno what time you guys plan on being up, but I hate the heat here in my town and I like to avoid the major traffic. So I am leaving here at about 5:30-6AM and will take my time, but I more than likely can reach around where some of you reside by no later than 9AM, in fact I am positive I can probably even do it in less than 2 hours, but like I said, I plan on meeting up with Sir Arthur from Visalia, and when we hit Valenica, get a bite. From there, might take us another 45min with some traffic to hit up the LA area. I am just going to go ahead and give it 3 hours. But yeah Bonzai, let us know. We have until 8:30pm before it starts to get dark, so maybe a time when 1 will be available as well, so there is a time figure for who can meet up with who, when and where, at or prior to the meet.

I was also thinking we could meet by the queen mary theres a park next to it we could tro on the bbq and take pics after.

[xs94st]

We could meet at my place, for yall who are comin down early.

I live about 15 minutes from the beach, all we'd have to do is hit the 605s to the 405 n then beach blvd n we'll be about 4 miles from PCH.

That sounds good too, how early you plan on being ready?

[xs94st]

I'll prolly be ready by 10am or so, gonna wake up early, wash the celi, detail, vacuum, n get an air freshener from target haha.

We can see what's up with a meeting place, as I know there are a bunch of places that people may want to converge upon before the heading out.

[wilc4]

Sup wilc4, how long have you lived out there? I used to live on the border of MoVal off Blaine n Iowa n then off of Fair Isle.

You ever see a white celica around there? =)

LOL - where are you at now? I live down by the air force base...

Do we have a solid date, yet?

Ok, well first, I say whoever is going for sure, put themselves on that list ASAP and what they will bring. I honestly wouldn't mine meeting up near a park either, but I need to know where everyone feels best with meeting at.

ok so just so i'm clear on this, i'm meeting up with you in bakersfield early in the morning on the 2nd and following you down south to the meeting place, i'm not great at organizing things but i'm not going to miss this, just let me know where to meet and what to bring, excited to meet everyone in person, do we have a head count yet?

Yeah, let me know when I can call you because I think it will be easier through text or just call me when you are free. You can call any time, I am always free unless I am asleep, but I sleep whenever I want, so there is no set time. We tried to start a list here on who is coming, when they are available and what they are bringing, should be in this page or the previous before this one. Just reply and edit it. I want to bring drinks, but people need to tell me what all they prefer (soda or something, because we don't want to condone drinking and driving).
