WE ARE TRYING TO GET ANOTHER VANCOUVER MEET GOING>
please post or pm myself, Hitmann, Rotary Titus, or Fietguy if you are interested easiest way is to post here, but please, we want toget as many as possible.

I was thinking for a meeting place, the parking area at metrotown mall, or the one on the sears side, closest to metrotown, the first mainly because, it gives us a nice chance to show off, as well, its usually pretty empty in the early part of the day, ie, around noon or before.

Then, a drive through stanley park, via downtown, robson, some pics in the park, me and p3rd found a nice place, as long as they dont give us shit for parking on grass.

then getting a consensus on where to eat, and depending on peoples ideas or prior engagements, maybe a run up the Sea to Sky again, or if there are any other nice areas to go, suggestions and feedback on this idea would be great, maybe we could even all go out to the mission speedway to make a nice show of the 8, please reply and let me know if this is good, or subject to change, pardon my randomness, i just got off work, and need sleep soon, hehe

*thumbs up* i'ma make sure to bring at least two cams for this one.

Mine will work ok in daylight as we found out, not so well at night, hehe

ok ok im in,

but im putting a vote in for meeting either on the "Wesside" or Richmond, Inconsquential is coming from Richmond, RT and are coming from the West...so it makes sense....afterwards we can go anywhere...

by that time, my ride may be sporting some new rims....top secret at the moment though

cool, Wakeech and I came up with an idea too, thinking of going karting, dunno where its at, hopefully he will post info to see if that will help spark some interest, as well, we trying to come up with a logo so we can get an identity incase you all want to make it an actual club, was thinking along the idea of a rotar symbol with a maple leaf in the center, was also gonna ask a friend if he can make vinyls in colors like what polak did, so we can match to our cars, but we can all discuss these ideas when we get together too
He is gonna try to come up with some ideas and show them tomorrow, so, any ideas on a design, please, post them :)

I should be able to make it this time :)
count me in please

downtown/stanley park prefered tho

I don't know my schedule yet, but if I can be there I will. I live south of the Fraser, and would suggest White Rock (less traffic)...

Let me know....I'll keep time open

lol who said we all live in the westside?

i live in vancover fraserview (the east van baby)

yah now there is some more interest in coming out


i dont think we should make a big deal out of where we meet if your scared of spending 2 dollars on gas than go grab a squigee and save up

i say we meet somewhere where we can show and go you know what i mean ? show them off and than go get some things done...


other than that i booked both days off

Lol, Hitman, hes just giving his opinion, but, one thought would be, how does everybody feel about the karting idea? if enough like it, then I would suggest metting in Richmond due to the fact that it is closest to it, alos, whiterock isnt too far from there, you got lots of highway, hehehe

Well, we know we live all over the area, but regardless of where we live, we are gonna end up going for a drive to find some nice scenery, so, we have a couple of ideas on what to do, lets hear your opinion on which you prefer, Stanley Park, going Karting, or night time at mission?

Or... a couple or all of the above :)

i can make this meet ;)

Just drop a date and i'll try to make time for it :)

ummm... May 15 or 16, trying to see if we can get a majority vote, that way we can get the most possible turnout

hehe, maybe we should just make this a poll to see which day fits best, but it seems that most people are saying that either is good for them.

Wakeech, can you check out the business hours for the Karts, in case this is the option taken, and if it is, we should book a time for it, that way we can get in easily :)
But, I think maybe Saturday would be best, so no one has to worry about work the next day, or school, or anything of that matter.

Sooooo.... I guess it will be May 15th then, if anyone objects, please speak now or forever hold your rotary!

by far saturday is the best day


and on sidaway street near the auto mall there is a karting place


gonna go get a slurpee

lol, hey Wakeech, if we get a design ready, I might be able to get a few samples knocked off real quick, cuz I gotta go get my alarm fixed tomorrow, bloody proximity sensor isnt going off, so, need to get it checked.
Dunno if anyone has gone to BoyzClub before, but that is where I got my alarm, and LED's done, I am gonna try to talk to them about the possibility of giving us better rates, kinda let them know how many people we can get down there if they treat us good, hehe, so, I will let you know how that option goes tomorrow

i got a buddy at visions who hooked me up with the viper pager for 400 installed

all options included proximity sensoors on low cuz it kept going off

Which viper though? the 2.5? or which one?

So, looks so far like we have about 8 or so people, hopefully we can get more too, so, keep p/m ing us, or post here, and let us know whats up, and if you have any ideas to throw in the mix too

i went paintballing at big shots in tswwassen and it wsas really cool
how about we go there as a group its a good fun highway drive and we can get it done in about 2 horus and it will let us all fight together agianst others

Man this is so weird.. I'm going paintballing there next weekend myself, and was worried about leaving my baby unattented there =D

No worries right?

just the driving o nthe gravel road was going 8 kmh but still scrape my car once in the middle try to drive on the grass as much as possible or if u can dont take it lots of DUST

if u want company i can come:D

bump ;)

Quick thing im hoping everyone has ordered a t shirt since i dont have the balls to put the rx8 club on my car i bought a shirt which i will be wearing to the meet.. im hoping we get more guys wearing the shirts u know cuz we are like so cool


they're not t shirts but they are high grade 100% cotton which just adds to the cool factor

here is the link to the Thread (http://www.rx8club.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=26444) or you can get them off Polaks Site (www.polakgraphics.com)

Yeah.. the thought of up-ended gravel along with the chips/nicks..... yeah don't think I'll be driving the 8 to Tsawassan.

Hitmann... not sure how the whole paintball thing works (it'll be my first time). We've got a rather large first-timers party going..

You're welcome to drop in if you feel like picking off a bunch of noobs. :)

that was my third time playing!

lol yah i wouldnt recommend u taking the 8

just found out my work scheduel I'll be working 15 and 16th :(
AW MAN I SO want to play paintball I haven't played in years!!!! and carting!!!!! geez you guys have to promise me to do the same when 93rdcurrent's here =p

what time ya gotta work those days?
depending on the time, you should give one of us a call, and we can let you know where we are so you can join up

yah u gotta come atleast a little bIT

call in sick be a rebel!

LOL I'll try my best... think I'm working a 4-1 shift that week though...

4-1 what does that mean?

I meant 4pm to 1am shift

ouch, gotta love late night, maybe we can try to do early day karting for you then Usoff, that way you dont miss out.
I doubt it would be easy to switch shifts around, cuz I know what its like

i'm still ok with anything.

as with me :D

Me and Wak went karting there last night, it was a blast, I am thinking we should do that around noon, that way Titus can join us for it before work, and Wak wants to do pics around the lions gate area, so stanley park sems like a good idea.

By Thursday at the latest, I will be sending one or more p/m's to all Van people I can find to get a response and a verification, either post, p/m or call myself, Wak, or Hitmann, anyone who can pass on the info that you are gonna show up.

We are thinking of getting confirmations so we can call ahead and book some time at the karts for however many people are interested.

sure if you guys start karting before 12p I'd be fine, though I don't think I can make it for lions gate pics :(

I thought so, thats why I was thinking the karting early would be cool :)

Yo Wak, wanna stick this post to the top, so we can keep people noticing? hehe

what date the 15 or 16th cuz i sorta wanna know...

The 15th, and if anyone wants to do more on 16th, I am up for it too, booked both days off, heck, we could go roadtrip and head out on the coquihalla if we want, hehe, that would be good for Usoffs need for speed bug :)

stuck.

?

I'm an arse for missing both...

Hey wait a minute everyone but Inconsequential, Wakeech, and myself are arses for missing the very first meet.

damn straight, hehe
wait, I have an arse, does that count?

So, should I reserve for 20 for lunch at 1pm Saturday then? sound about right? including rx7 and rx8 owners that is

wow, 2 more days, I feel like a little kid on christmas eve
I wanted to finally get a meet with quite a few cars, and hopefully, saturday wont disappoint, so, looking forward to seeing you all there

your all arses

reserve 15 we can always add more...

I'll be there for the 11:30 meet, but gotta jet at lunch time. Got a wedding to attend to....

See y'all there!

its all gravy see you tomm

sorry guys, i have something to do tomorrow morning...
but maybe i can join you guys in the north shore area in the afternoon, just let me know when and where

Alright its official...! I will be making an appearance at Lansdowne at 11:30 :p

Do you guys want me to arrange with Signature Mazda (Automall)
to have some of their cars removed from their front lot so we can have a nice ass group pic there?

if so say yes and i'll pop by tomorrow and give them a heads up since i know the ppl there


and also .... shouldnt we meet at the lansdowne parking lot right outside of ToyRus? Thats the parking lot with no cars.

i like the idea of going at the automall too, hey, you know them well enough to get deals on stuff, like strakes and stuff? hehe, want, but too pricey right now

did you check with Trusville first?

You do know that some parts are much cheaper from the states and so parts much cheaper here right?

yup, but I like the idea of buying and getting fast, as in immediately, instead of waiting weeks for them, im kinda more impulsive that way

well, i'm aware that this sucks, but...

i don't think i'll be able to meet up with you guys pretty much at all tomorrow.
this weekend my mom's taking a road trip with two of her friends (one from out of town), and tomorrow my dad "needs" (not as bad as i do!!) the other car for "stuff"... sooo...

yeah. sucks. sorry. Other Andrew, i have your cell and will call to see if there's any opportunity to hook up tomorrow.

don't sweat the small stuff, and i'm sure someone else can step up for the Lion's Gate shot... oh, and i can tell you exactly where to do it too.

in Stanley park, next to the point with the lighthouse. shooting from the bluff with the trees and benches you could get probably 10 cars in there (with some careful careful parking) with the almost-full length of the lions gate in the background, and depending on the time, a sunset too.

so yeah, i'll call if i can make it at all. sorry to disappoint... i mean, i am too :(
