Time as usual is 7:00PM.

And away we go!

(Yes, I copy/pasted from the 2013 thread. Deal with it...)

I tried to get stuff in Gwinnett... Norcross was as close as I could really find anything that was still good for marietta/west side folks.

If there's any other suggestions, for somewhere like...midtown, let me know! RiRa was good, but there's a ton of places in midtown... The Local?

samisons 01-23-2014 11:48 PM

I gotta make it to one of these this year lol..

Porter beer bar in little 5? Flip burger (3 locations)? Vortex is always good. Message me, I know loads of good restaurants around town.

The Porter is tiny.. if we get the amount of people that typically showed up last year (upwards of 40), we'd never get in the door. Flip is good, I like Farm Burger a little more. Vortex is great as well. I'll have to think about that.

zinzan 01-29-2014 07:04 PM

So how do these work? People hang out in the parking lot and introduce themselves, or head inside and eat/drink?

xwd 01-29-2014 08:40 PM

Both?

I'm going to try and make it out after my car gets out of the body shop.

Ahh, last meet I came to only had about 15.

2pt5RS 02-03-2014 04:52 PM

up for tomorrow!

2pt5RS 02-04-2014 04:10 PM

Don't forget to park in the deck on W. Trinity at Commerce Street. It's free after 5!

zinzan 02-05-2014 06:28 PM

What was the turn-out? Couldn't make it due to wife's previous commitments.

I'm up in Cobb County. The March dates and location look good to me, but I'll try to make the next February meet up.

One other 86 other than myself. There were a handful of WRXs as well. Smaller turnout, but considering the weather. not surprising.

boredom.is.me 02-14-2014 03:22 PM

I completely forgot about the last meet...

Firestorm_86 02-14-2014 11:28 PM

Raging burrito is right around the corner and I totally forgot about it so don't let me forget this time.

Also, I installed my Berk HFC front pipe, wakes up the Legamax a bit.

2pt5RS 02-17-2014 04:29 PM

bump it up for tomorrow.

csjcsj 02-18-2014 06:05 AM

All these are to far from where I live! Also meets during the week are impossible due to work!
Ever have any meets on the weekends?

Yeah, same here. By the time I drive home, pick up my honey and drive back it is too late.

(hmmm, I could just leave her home and go direct from work. :paddle: <-- her when I get home!)

I haven't planned any on a weekend, but at one point there were some. Anyone can plan a meet. ;)

Yeah right, she a kept housewife. I doubt she will drive the 56 miles to my office.

MonkeyBoy 02-22-2014 02:54 AM

Sorry I did not make it. My daughter hit a deer with her car and I had to deal with the issues. She had just got it back from the last accident too.....like the same day just got it back. I wonder if the body shop offers frequent repair discounts?

pnig 02-26-2014 07:49 AM

Looks like next up is Taco Maco in Sandy Springs on 3/4/14 yeah?
If so, I will have to make it out for this one. Haven't met up with you guys before, but I have been meaning to. Life has been kicking my ass hard.

5AD86D 03-03-2014 07:35 PM

Maybe. How many people usually make it out (not that that would affect whether I come)?

2pt5RS 03-03-2014 09:32 PM

there should be a decent turn out... FYI, we park in the bottom of the deck across from the restaurant. it's almost always empty...

Yea...gotta luv exhaust sound amplified by the parking decks! :)
And there was about 10 of us the last time I believe. Was it you who asked me about the limited rearview rimless mirrors by the way? If so its about $113 after tax my price.

No, that was Gianni...but I'll pass the info along if one of you isn't ther.

fatherfork 03-04-2014 04:28 PM

My wife wants to know if there will be any other ladies there. :)

Cool.

For any significant others: there will be at least one if you are on the fence.

With my schedule at work, I'm not going to be able to make it to these.

JC0830 03-17-2014 12:43 AM

Hi,
this might be a stupid question. but I've never been to a car meet of any kind. what's the point of these meets?

boredom.is.me 03-17-2014 01:41 AM

Must there be a point?

The point is to meet up and talk about our cars, what we've done to them, what we're going to do to them, experiences we've had, and tell stories.

boredom.is.me 03-17-2014 02:55 PM

I can only eat...
