Meeting of Mazdas Poll

Okay guys, I will be posting the official announcement up as soon as tomorrow. I'm gonna run this by you guys but please this is not final. Just looking for your opionions. I am in search of having the food sponsored but if that doesn't happen I have the following two options.

OPTION 1:
$10 entry for 1 vehicle/1 person, $5 for additional people (under 16 free).
Includes: 1 Mazda goodie bag, ticket for door prize for everyone, food for everyone, donation to sick kids.

Pros:
-Value for the money
-The people from Mazda and the sponsors will be treated better (as opposed to "bring your own bbq" idea).
-RX7s have no trunks (can't bring our own bbq)
-More money for sick kids
-We worked hard to find a place that does not require pay to get in. (The RX Club has put $160 for the park, we would like to be reimbursed). But $160 will be about $1 or less for every entry as opposed to $5 to enter a conservation area where all the money goes to the park. This means more money for sick kids.
-I booked the lounge area to serve the food for two hours 12-2pm (I believe this is worth the extra $16.50/hr)

Cons:
-its $10
-some people enjoy the bbq'ing

OPTION 2

$5 entry for every vehicle. 1 Mazda goodie bag, ticket for door prize for everyone, donation to sick kids. Bring your own food/bbq.

Pros:
-it's cheaper
-bbq'ing is fun

Cons:
-The "important" people are not treated as well but maybe they'd like bbq'ing
-Some people might not like bbq'ing
-RX7 guys go starving

Option 1 Sounds To Be The Most Logical Choise To Me.

Well Could'ent The Rx-7's Just Put The Burgers Under Their Hoods Befor They Left Their Homes? I'm Sure They Would Be Cooked By The Time You Got There. What Do Ya Say Neo? Sound Good?

Helas lives!!!
In theory the burgers would be completely carbon by the time we get to our destination. Rotaries are extremely hot!!!
I hear most RX-8 drivers BBQ in their cabin because the A/C is inadequent. lol

Sounds like a fun idea.
Perhaps a location and date would be helpful?
As long as it's in more then a week or so, I should have my car by then

Well it sounds as if you pushing opt 1 alot harder then opt2 since the writeup is bigger and more enthusiastic.

opt 1 fo me.

i have one question for you guys,(i know neo will never let this go and will bring it up next time i see him) Is there a limit to how many burgers/hot dogs you can have "1 per person?" and will Dr. Pepper be available?

i just wanna know weather i sould also eat at home, or skip lunch and come to the meet as soon as it starts?

tlovr out

Option 1 makes the most sense. Even 8s can't carry BBQs in the trunk.

It's $10, no big deal. You'll save $5 if you go for option 2, and you don't even get to eat. Where's the fun in that?

I'd say option 1, but like above, location and when this event will take place should be planned well in advance...
