(Edit 1)
If there is an issue with GSP security or rain/snow we will be moving right across route 4 to the IKEA parking garage. I have heard of meets going there without a problem, but I'd like to avoid the garage as I don't like the idea of many fast cars in a confined space.
Also, If the turn out isn't too large I would like to get everyone afterwards to head towards a restaurant.
The only restaurants large enough to acommadate a large group would be:
Minado - Sushi and Japanese Buffet
Brazilian SteakHouse - May be packed
TGIF - Again may be packed
Hooters - If the turn out is smaller, this can be an option.
If anyone in the area knows of anywhere large enough for let's estimate 50 people, please post it up as a suggestion.
(Edit 2)
Simple guidelines:
Please no burnouts, peelouts, donuts, WOT entrances.
Try to keep the attention down, so if you have a loud exhaust try to keep the rev's down. Wanna not run into problems so we can run this again a few months from now if it goes well.
Please Park and lock your cars, don't want any problems, if you wanna put up your hood to show off your bling, go ahead.
If we run into anyone who creates a problem (stealing and the such) I'm sure everyone else would not have a problem with a group beat down.
If you have any parts that you are gonna bring to sell please post it or PM me and I'll make a master list.
I'm going to get a small prize to have for a small unofficial "Best of Meet" contest. May have other awards but they will have to be significantly smaller items as It's coming out of my wallet.
I've dubbed this project of mine. "CCM - Crossroads Car Meet"
Super Important Edit:
Due to the size I didn't want all these people to show up to get kicked out. So Chuck and I did some work (thanks chuck) and we have gotten permission from "The Fireplace" to use their lot and eat there. The fireplace is 5 minutes up route 17 north from the GSP. There are about 120-150 spots in their parking lot so first come first serve. After those initial spots there is a parking lot across the off ramp that we will use, but we have no permission there so come early for a fireplace spot. We will be hanging out in the parking lot from 4 until 8 ish. Then We'll go in for food. I'm going to take pictures of the area and post them as well as scan their menu. It's a fast food place. Please spread this news to everyone you know that is going and edit any posts you see on other boards. We have two weeks to tell everyone. Sorry for the move but permission is worth it. Just know this doesnt mean you can do whatever you want int eh parking lot.
i'll be rollin up BONESTOCK(04, black, 6M, no spoiler, the car's been in mine for 4 weeks), but this meet will be like a parts sampler for me, can't wait.
