86EXPO 2015 Ideas - Toyota GR86, 86, FR-S and Subaru BRZ Forum & Owners Community

ichitaka05 · 03-02-2015, 11:57 PM

Last year was a lot of fun & yes, I want to do it again, 86EXPO!!!

This time, I want to hear feedback from you guys on few things.

1. Date?
2. Location?
3. Venues?

If you say "cuz it's close to my place", I'll just ignore the post. plz be serious, cuz I'm serious here.

Anyone who went to '13 or '14 event and wish to "add" or "fix" something from the event, you're more than welcome to post it!

Thanks

Nice!

x1UP · 03-03-2015, 08:11 AM

Virginia would be a nice place to do it. Actually is Philly available? Philly would be even better in nicer weather.

kanundrum · 03-03-2015, 09:45 AM

My Idea
1. July thru Sept
2. North Carolina
3. NCCAR Track (Autox/Full Track) Venue for those wanting one or the other

This works for me! I'd also love to see it somewhere like VIR - that's a really fun track with lots of space for other events to go on simultaneously.

@ichitaka05 Can I make a proposal?

I've done some sort of research and maybe, MAYBE, we can rent out Pocono Raceway? They won't show the price, we'd have to contact them about that.

But here's my proposal:

1. July through September
2. Pennsylvania
3. Pocono Raceway

Thoughts?

Reason why they don't show the rent price is, so they can change the prices around ppl they work with.

It's all depends the the price, but it's possible to do it there. It's currentlh an ideas

@ichitaka05 I figured. If y'all need help, i'd be happy to help in some way!

Dadhawk · 03-05-2015, 12:26 PM

@ichitaka05 are you thinking east coast/west coast/mid America yet, or open to all at this point?

September - October
Georgia
Atlanta Motor Speedway, Road Atlanta, or Atlanta Motorsports Park or all of them.

Fall is always better for a car gathering just about anywhere.

Georgia because nearly all interstate and air traffic leads (or can lead) there.

I know AMS hosts autox in their parking lot all the time, not sure about Road Atlanta. Also, at AMS you might be able to get some type of discount on one of the driving schools and driving "events" held there on the speedway itself.

I'd personally favor AMP just because its a road course and its more designed specifically for events.

Currently, it's up in the air... I just want to see the option I have this yr & where members feels bout it, instead of ME. lol
