Thanks to our admin, Hachiroku. All the FR-S & BRZ owners, yes we're doing it again! This time, we want to hit up friends in East Coast.

Quick Q&A

Q. When?
A. We're looking in Summer time. Maybe end July ~ Early August. It's still tentative.

Q. Where?
A. We have few in our mind... but we're not officially decided on the location. If you guys got some cool places, post here and convince us! :D

Q. Why East Coast?
A. Last year, we did it in West side (Las Vegas). We want to be fair to East side of members.

When we figure more out, we'll updated it here without all the official announcements!

Start upgrading your FR-S/BRZ!

UPDATE: 02/18/2014

Alright ladies & dudes (lol)

We have some states wanna do the event in. Here are the lists
Georgia, North Carolina, Virginia, New Jersey, & Tennessee.

Cuz I never been to any of those states, so I need you guys feedback on this to get this event on the roll! If you guys can add pros & cons of these states.

When you guys putting pros & cons, please don't bash for without reasons. Please put the reason for all pros & cons to help us out decide.

UPDATE 02-24-2014

Looking into all the SCCA region of all 5 states.

If you guys know who I need to contact (other than in general email), please PM me &/or other group who do autox/track (prefer someone who's organizer or president of that region) please PM me also

Thanks

Oh hell yes!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

My vote is NY or Boston



And yes I voted twice LOL

Tail of the Dragon - Deals Gap.

NY baby

Anywhere on the east coast, we'll be there :-) I suggest somewhere in the middle so it's an easier drive for all. North Carolina, perhaps?

That's the thing, even we break it to West, Mid & East, US is too big of place to do "middle". For one member, it might be good distance, doesn't mean it'll be same for other hundreds.

I'm no expert in East Coast, so I want hear where's good place to do event in East. If the area is good, ppl will come. Just like last year, we did it in Vegas, member from WA drove all the way down.

I wan to do the same for East side :)

NY or Boston

I'm only saying that cause I know a lot of members are lazy to drive far.

Englishtown NJ

"Lazy" isn't an option for you. I've signed you up as 86EXPO Team & I'll slave you around, just like last yr. lol

Awesome!

Well being from New England I would have to say Boston or NY First. But I can see NJ, I would even consider VA or even MD.

PA or NJ or MD

Itchi, since there was a West Coast and now East Coast, will there be a Midwest?!

NC, probably at the gopro complex, 7 Mi go cart track. and maybe even some parking lot autoX!

Anything is possible... as long as Hachi approves it :D

I'm hoping I can make it down to one of these in 2015 with my BRZ. Would be epic! Glad you guys are trying to be fair about where it's located.

This....Technically it would be in Alcoa, TN but all the real fun would happen on 129.

OK, that'll work. I hear the women are friendly in TN. :)

The last time was a great time for me when I was Tennessee. Weather wasn't bad, but I was there May. I wonder what its like, say better or worse than South Carolina?

Niagara Falls? So our friends in Canada can join in. :)

Hm... I do want to be fair to Canada members too... but again, US/North America is huge place.

I'll think what I can do... but no promise here

VIR, Virginia International Raceway. Race track, skid pad, go karts, repaved paddock, lots of open grass. It's a great venue, midway up the east coast.

Atlanta / Cobb Co area would be a good choice. Good driving weather during the summer/fall months and tons of good tracks/venues. I see quite a few FRS and BRZ in the area and its a quick drive for the Florida crowd.

There... I am done with my obligatory "Come to my city cause I am lazy" post.

Oh yeah, definitely in on this!!

DOESN'T Matter where Zaku will Fly out there just like before! as long as work doesn't kick my ass first, looking forward to this very much

VIR sounds like the deal!

This!

Agreed. I posted my vote for this in the Scion thread too.

NY seems like the obvious choice...

its New York!

Hey, please somewhere right in the middle. Hot import Night have been in MD VA and DC. And I have been to all of them.

I feel that VA Chantilly would be best because there are two buildings and HUGE outdoor parking lots. <----so that can accommodate for the huge mass of people driving to the meet. VA (Chantilly)

DC.(dulles expo center) does NOT have a lot public parking :( so a mass of people going there will just suck...Also NY would be in the same boat. Parking in any city is a joke.:barf:

Boston is too far.:cry:

Another option is New Jersey where they had the wekfest 2013 (great event) at the New Jersey Expo Center yet, parking might suck well.


Please take my consideration. Please and thank you.

Oh yeah, plus 1 for the race tracks I totally forgot them. Summit point!!!!!!!! [ame="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t-syfNWW_pw"]100 Drifters of December 2010 | Bobby Pinkerton | TWreck Films - YouTube[/ame] Our cars were made to drift :) Also VA raceway would be sweet :)

What about Pocono Raceway?

FedEx Field Stadium, Landover, MD

Any Parking lot bigger than that? small coned track is possible as well ;)

I'm also down for anything upwards of New York.

Boston or New York

When you guys say Boston & New York. You guys really thinking of place that can be done? Space for over 100 cars, plus vendors & ppl, cruise, autox or even track, travel around without getting stuck on traffic (to certain level).

...or just lazy & don't wanna drive more than few mins from where you live?

Can it be both? :lol:

I'm sure something will come up. We just need more time to give better responses.

Interesting, there are two seperate threads on both FRS and BRZ sections. Any way to consolidate?

Sadly no. I did same thing last yr lol

Metlife Stadium is a great spot for big events, and it's right outside NYC.
