we should stagger the meets, one meet north and one south that way one group isnt always stuck driving an hour to a meet

weekly might be too often. Monthly or quarterly would be nice.

So I'll make an edit to the original post and perhaps create a new thread but I'll tentatively say the first meet would be at the BurgerMaster (pending location depending on parking) in Bellevue on Wednesday the 5th of December and every other wednesday after

updated original post!

Toys for tots meet is the same day!!

Unless I'm reading the wrong thread, thats on the Sunday the 2nd... not the Wednesday the 5th like I posted in the first post.


First post here shows the toy run on the 2nd...

Nvm viewing on my phone. 2's and 5's are tripping me out lol

:lol: s'ok man - Happens to me too here and there when I'm on my phone

Burgermaster is so convenient! I live just up the hill!

I will most likely be there

Sounds good, less than a week guys :D

Count me in!

Sooooo Burgermaster in bellevue correct? We should do a huge meet at xxx burger in issaquah sometime in the future too cause the parking lot there is perfect for big meets :thumbsup:

That is correct sir.

Issaquah is right where I live, Never been to XXX Burger tho.

The parking lot at the Burgermaster is small and awkwardly shapped. I don't think they would appreciated a car meet there and I don't see how everyone would be able to hang out without eating. That Burgermaster is a only Drive In, dine in your car burgermaster.

Ishii

Well the idea is to eat a bit. However if we outgrow the lot we can move the meet. I don't expect more than 10-20 people the first few weeks in the middle of winter anyway

How about southcenter? Everyone meet at the parking lot then go grab a bite to eat there? Lot is big and we can probably park somewhere where there isnt gonna be any cars

It's Christmas shopping season... The lots will be packed EVERYWHERE.

How about we do a roll call so we have a better estimate? Darren did that for the mega meet and it worked out pretty well.

Im down. And I think so is @Timtamtt

XXX is delicious and prices aren't to bad either, if you haven't been there yet then all the more reason to plan a meet there haha

We're gonna keep this at burger master for this wednesday and gauge how big the meet is, then move it later perhaps... info from first post...


The meet will be every other Wednesday night at 7pm starting on December 5th!



For now (Til we see how popular it is... ) It will be at...

BURGERMASTER
10606 Northup Way, Bellevue, WA (425) 827-9566 <--number in case you need to call them if lost

Why not make this a monthly meet? Gives us more time to request that day off?

The idea of a regularly occuring meet is that you come when you can. I don't expect people to take days off and such. Just don't show up a week if you can't, that's all, no harm done.

I don't think the Burgermaster parking lot is big enough.
I can't make it tomorrow anyways :( XXX in Issi sounds good! They have lots of car meets there so they're used to it. Just have to make sure it doesn't coincide with one haha

I thought I could make it but I can't. But I will be there for the next meeting.

Gonna try and make this!

Won't be able to make it during weekday nights.

Sorry guys, I was gonna roll through tonight but I'm completely exhausted from work. See you in a couple weeks!

Based on the feedback so far it sounds like hardly anyone show up haha. I'm already here... will hang out for a bit and see if it's worth moving let alone if people show up. Keep in mind this is meant to be a casual thing... if you can't make it one week or another it isn't a big deal. Doesn't matter when you show up or leave. Just meant for some local car enthusiasts to show up and talk shop and eat on a regular basis. That's all.

So all in all we had a turnout which was about as good as I expected... Given it was december and such. We didn't outgrow burgermaster yet, we had a good bit of room and for the most part no one was out of hand.

Glad to meet some new people, Next one will be on the 19th.
Maybe we can consider moving the location if the group is constantly growing but I see no need to now.

I like the location, its super convenient for me. See you the 19th!

Also those kids need to go. Don't invite them plz.....

I looked forward to stopping by some evening. I'm not a big fan of burgermaster but only because I can't eat the food but it'd be fun to stop and chat next time around.

What happened?

One kid's car alarm kept going off. Not much else.

All 4 were parjed in the drive in and they werent even eating

I think some but not all ate. However to be fair, when they parked in the drive in area most/all the patrons had left already, so it's not like they were taking spots from people that needed them.

They kinda kept to themselves because while I struck up convo, I then got involved in convo with others and everyone else kind of ignored them. So they kinda kept separate as a result.

The meet was meant to be for ANY enthusiasts, I'm not going to kick anyone out or tell anyone they aren't invited unless they're doing actions that would attract unwanted attention. And short of the car-alarm thing, they didn't. I don't want anyone from the forum here acting like they're special because I posted it here first. It's a meet because WE'RE CAR ENTHUSIASTS... not because we drive the SAME CAR. I just want to make that clear, in case there's any confusion :)

So the plan is to meet up again in two weeks? I couldn't make it this last time, but definitely would like to make one sometime soon.

Yep, I figure if it really takes off, weekly. Otherwise bi-weekly is fine :)

Cool, sounds good. Hope to make it next week! Weather depending...
