So me and s12rich are pretty dead fuckin set on trying to have a massive club wide meet this year. I'm in Illinois and him in Connecticut but were both willing to drive just about anywhere to do this.
I know that this is about the time that everyone starts trying to setup there local/regional meets, so now is the perfect time.to start trying to plan something of this scale.

So who would actually be willing to atleast show up with or with out there s12m how far is everyone willing to drive? After we get enough people going for it then we'll figure where to have it.
With something like this ill only be limited by the condition of my engine.
SO GUYS..WHOS UP FOR IT?

Logical place would be Texas. But I know that most of us couldn't afford the trip for a few reasons..... gas prices for one thing, and anyone lowered on IRS will destroy their tires halfway or sooner on the trip. I know, because that happened to Sterling when he moved from Illinois to here in southern Cali, he blew out his tires on the front and the back and they were new when he left Illinois. He was in the middle of the desert in AZ at the time, and had to throw on the spare... and barely got to an offramp with a chain tire shop... he blew out the second tire and had to hand carry the wheel a few blocks. Got there ten minutes after they closed but my smooth talking got them to wait for him. IRS negative camber is a bad thing for long drives. That, and most of these cars are just begging to have some other sort of mechanical failure lol.

I know, I know... I sound like I'm shooting the idea down. I'm sorry. Just not sure if it's feasible. Ever.

Worth a try tho is it not man? How awesome would it be to even.just have like 30 of us in one place for a photo shoot or we could rent out a park type place and have a crazy cook out type thing.

ArroFeb 18, 2013, 8:29 pm · #4

Let's see...

1. Raise up the rear suspension to square out the camber to zero.
2. Buy myself an Auto Club membership.
3. Bring an extra supply of belts, oil, gasket maker, and a full toolbox.
4. Have my friend drive my truck behind me in case of needz tow.

Yep I think it's a good idea :P

given enough time to save up money i'd go....like...next year, but if your thinking this year i'd think it'd be short notice

s12/200sxFeb 18, 2013, 9:22 pm · #12

Haha True And I Need To Save Up Too Night

night_s12Feb 18, 2013, 9:46 pm · #13

We'll figure it out but for now we gotta get people actually willing to go

sideways_s12Feb 19, 2013, 2:49 am · #14

Id be down still currently trying to get my meet going...

DjayS12Feb 19, 2013, 6:23 am · #15

Texas is too far from the canadian east coast for me lol. I would be in for a meet at tail of the dragon though! :)

rednucleusFeb 19, 2013, 10:17 am · #16

So us WA guys can get together and rent a transport truck for our S12's, and I can load the humans into my wife's Suburban for the trip to TX. Then we can all stay at Schizo's and have his folks cook for us - how's that for a great plan.

To be fair, we could meet at the geographic center of the U.S. - that would be Lebanon, Kansas

i like rednucleus Plan And My Dad Lives In Texas So I Could Say Im Going Over To Visit Him And Go To The Meet As Well

RomeroFeb 19, 2013, 11:02 am · #18

no offense to texans but i'd wanna avoid Texas

rednucleusFeb 19, 2013, 11:16 am · #19

Seattle to Lebanon, 1638 mi; 1 day, 2 hr

night_s12Feb 19, 2013, 11:55 am · #20

Ok guys look its fucking awesome that your all down to do this but wen arro said Texas it was just a suggestion lol There has been NO descision on a definite location or time.

I would like to be conciderate to all members so something more centralised like Dave's Kansas suggestion in my mind makes more sense.
And also if you WA guys actually showed up with a transport full of s12's I think most of us would shit a brick hah seeing as alot of us have only seen the car we own none others.

Where ever it is is gotta be BIG so we can get as many members as possible in one location. And I know alot of memebers would be almost a day or two drive to wherever we do have it, to make it worth it I wouldn't mind making a weekend out of it that way its justified going so far.

Wherever we do decide to have it I'm pretty sure we'll get some whack ass looks lol like say we all roll to a Denny's for some tasty pancakes and before the town knows it there's like 40 hatches and coupes rolling around the town being all loud and shit hahah that'd be an epic sight actually lmao

D-sport S12Feb 19, 2013, 12:30 pm · #21

I'm out, way to far for me

night_s12Feb 19, 2013, 12:37 pm · #22

Its all good man. If u can't then you cant

Jamaican_DriftaFeb 20, 2013, 8:12 pm · #23

yo im in but don't gas me up and then let me down lol we just better have a meet and Ive been on club FR and there is some drift events going on thru out the year maybe we can all meet up at one of those or something just a thought if not maybe an autocross or a car show of some sort you know go in and crash the party with a bunch of S12s lol

night_s12Feb 20, 2013, 10:32 pm · #24

My ultimate goal honestly is atleast 20-25 people to attend.

s12richFeb 21, 2013, 10:15 am · #25

when night and i where talking about this i assummed that it would be somewhere near night since hes almost smack in the middle of the country the most fezable for everyone...and i was also thinkin this wouldnt happen till late summer maybe have a meet on each east and west coast then s12 train to the centralized meet(this meets got to be as many s12 in one place for a weekend or something) ...well hope i see you all this summer looking forward to it

s12/200sxFeb 21, 2013, 12:44 pm · #26

So What You're Saying Rich is That There Should Be A Meet One Every Side Of The States And From Those Meets We Go To The Big One ?

That's exactly what he means. That way noone is driving alone. I know people have brought this idea up in the past but me and rich are actually seriousness. We get enough people and ill make sure we have a place to meet up for a weekend!

This Sounds Like A Plan Night ! :D
RomeroFeb 21, 2013, 8:23 pm · #29

rednucleusFeb 21, 2013, 8:30 pm · #30

I'm sure his sis would love to have us all for a few days
night_s12Feb 21, 2013, 9:13 pm · #31

Hah yeah its totally possible to cram 30+ people in a 1bed 1bath house. Let alone a shit ton of cars hah where we can barely fit 3 cars. There's a shit ton of hotels here tho.

RomeroFeb 22, 2013, 11:54 am · #32

then its settled its at your place

night_s12Feb 22, 2013, 11:58 am · #33

Nah man! Not my place but like I said there are hotels and motels around here a bunch of them.

turbo-s12Feb 22, 2013, 10:55 pm · #34

This is a great idea but were all pretty poor and this will cost quite a bit in gas...but id totally be down if i had the cash

night_s12Feb 22, 2013, 11:00 pm · #35

I figured that would be the biggest problem.

night_s12Feb 24, 2013, 2:11 pm · #36

Come on guys we need more people excited about this! Want it bad enough it can happen!!

sideways_s12Feb 24, 2013, 11:41 pm · #39

Lol just got out of jail what were you in for if you don't mind me askin?

86foreverFeb 26, 2013, 12:26 am · #40

assault with deadly weapon and evading the cops.

night_s12Feb 26, 2013, 1:18 am · #41

What the fuck?? I take it u had a good reason?

s12richFeb 26, 2013, 11:58 am · #42

yea they are cops isnt that a good enough reason...lol

86foreverFeb 26, 2013, 11:46 pm · #43

well the cop was power tripping and was trying to arrest me for not giving my name! He put hands on me and i took that as threat next thing i know i am fighting 4-5 sheriffs! fucking pigs!

s12richFeb 27, 2013, 1:20 am · #44

sooooo. anyway wats a good location to have a meet on the east coast for everyone input...please

Charlie S12Jan 23, 2015, 12:09 am · #45

I don't think that this is such a bad idea. Z31 guys have branson Z fest very year in branson MO and many many z31 owners go out there with properly running z31s and of course other Z's but it's mainly z31s.

spiderwebfxJan 23, 2015, 1:40 am · #46

Nice thread revival.

S12_LiferJan 29, 2015, 11:47 pm · #47

I plan to have another S12 meet some time this summer in San Diego.  Had 10 S12's that showed and expecting more this summer.  The road trip was the highlight of our meet.  Hope you folks can make it.
