Well, Eldon and I were talking, and I left an idea starter in another thread. We are thinking of doing a meet on Sept 11 at Stanley Park, and just taking pics, and cruising around looking for nice places for group or individual shots. Start around lunch, and either get somethign to eat at the beginning, or after we do some driving. Maybe we can hope for a nice sunny day so there are still girls out on the beach, and we can enjoy every aspect of the day.

Any thoughts on this, or anyone up for doing this? If we dont get a good response, then I will most likely post on the other forums I frequent just to make the day worthwhile. Last few times we tried to get you guys out for anything, it didnt go so well, so, lets hope for some peeps and cars out this time. Then we can have a group cruising around Downtown getting some reactions.

 

I am down! I just got my new wheels today!! (19" Chrome STERN ST-1) and should have my coilovers by then...... to negate the 4x4 look

 

then theres me, still stock, and still loving the car

 

I wanted the St-1's but when i got my rims they werent available in chrome. They said it would take them 6 months and low and behold 6 months later here they are. i think i can swing for the pciture date

 

You better, we haven't had sushi in a while, maybe we can all do that or something else for lunch... or we can go to one of Eldon's kind of places hehehe

 

haha... I don't think "Eldon's kind of places" was too popular last time... don't think it'll get anymore popular this time. haha. anyways. i'm gonna be there on Sept. 11.

 

yeah, i actually went to that fish on rice place you tried to set up last time... that was some of the best sushi i've had in a while. maybe a good night

 

sounds good!

but last minute decision for me since i am ultra busy these days

 

im down if i get my wheels and coilovers by then...

 

So Eldon, I will try to keep tabs on this while on vacation, can you continue with plans for this? I will call when I get back in town to see whats up too.

 

damn i just realized the date! i will be on vacation that weekend...

well if any of you go to the Revscene meet this weekend i will see you there!

Matt

 

Wow... So sounds like Andrew put me in charge... Okay......... Can't let him down! I guess we should start listing our names in the list if we can attend? And also, what time should we meet up? maybe picture time at Stanley Park at 1:30pm? This way, people can meet up before hand to have lunch if they can make it? So let's start a "lunch list" too.

(I'm not sure if I can attend the lunch myself.)

So what do you guys think of these times? And if you're thinking lunch, where?

 

Yeah, sorry Eldon, I just know I wont make it to a computer too much until right before we do this, I will be too busy enjoying beaches and visiting family in the interior.

 

Which is more important, Andrew? Your family? Or your Rotary Family?? :p Just kidding. Enjoy! Have Fun!

 

OK heres an idea.

1) Dan aka dannobre has just gotten his REVI + ram air duct installed and im dying to have a ride.

2) My new Blitz SUS power intake will be here next week, im also doing a DIY installation write-up along with videos of the installed product etc...


Anybody actually interested in doing a intake installation/meet/chat/cruise type of thing?

Sept 10 is the day we are looking to do this.

And the location would be at Dannobre's place, a little cruise together out to his place in Cloverdale (~20min away from Richmond).

let me know,
Vince


(sorry about the inactivity these days i have been extremely swamped)

 

So.... Hmmm... Again... No interest? Well... I only see two people's name on that list.... Ummm... Wow... You guys are lame! LAME!!!!

 

Well, I am up for both lunch and driving, and finding places for pics.
But, we already knew that, and for those of you who are complaining that there are not enough meets, well, come out then, and we can try to organize more meets. It gets frustrating when you plan meets and post it up with a lot of time in advance, but no one comes out.

 

thread highjack

how about msn contacts to organize meets easier?

Is the reason why people aren't signing up for this meet because the date/time doesn't work for people's schedules? 'Cause I didn't think we were absolutely committed to this date. it was just a suggestion... I don't know how useful msn contacts would actually make this. Like if you can't make it on one day, but can make it for another, why not just write it down in your reply? How does msn contacts help organize meets easier?

 

We could try what they did at the NWN site, and set up a weekly meet time and day, and have a default thing to do, they do bubble tea, we could think of something to do. And then if we have something specific, we can add it to the posts, and keep the one thread going.
Just a thought, but my one concern on this would be that then people would onlty show up once in a while and it would still seem pointless.

Another option is, to start setting up regular meets with other car clubs too. To help generate more interest, as well as keep more ideas flowing.

 

mm, i guess i was thinking more along the lines of smaller, more spontaneous 'meets' ^.^

as for this particular meet.. would love to go, but i have dragonboat practice every sunday morning :/ and this week's activities will run past 2 :x

C

 

well, if you like, one of us can give you a number if you feel like seeing where we are afterwards, might be a longer lunch, who knows.

 

is this still on?
if yes i am down with it

 

what's going on guys?
LOL I wanted to come back here and see some BC pics with our 8s! =p

 

well... apparently all the vancouver RX8 drivers and/or their cars are camera shy.
