Missed the last one.. Making a 6-hour drive to the Annual 86 Day Run on the 9th but I'll see if I can sneak this meet in too.

Just a heads up, this is the same time as Kaboom town (the fireworks display in Addison) so traffic is gonna be nuts!

CO777DAL 06-25-2014 03:12 AM

Count me in.

Indeed it is. Looks like Kaboom Town starts at 5pm so it may not be all that bad at 7pm. It would all depends on where your coming from to get to this meet. 9:30pm is when the fireworks go off. So we are in the middle of the action between the start of the event and the start of the fireworks.

We had a fireworks show a few days ago in Allen and every street in a 3 mile radius was packed including parking lots. Tens of thousands of people showed up (maybe 50k-70k?) with streets getting packed 6-7 hours before the fireworks went off.

Do you know how popular or large Kaboom Town is? and if the all the streets and parking lots will be jammed?

MokSpeed 07-01-2014 01:49 PM

Going out of town. Hope you guys have a good meet.

Dustin 07-01-2014 02:10 PM

Wish I could make it to this one. 5 people are on vacation this week though so my schedule is all mixed up. One of these days I'll make it out again.

I do not. Trying to change the location of the meet this close would create issues. I know some people that attend the meet do not check this forum for updates. Also some don't check the forum every week/day so we would miss people that way as well.

I know a place that would could have the meet and not have any of the issues of Kaboom Town but changing the location at this time might be rather problematic.

The location I would be moving it to would be the parking lot at:
6505 W Park Blvd #200
Plano, TX 75093

Several restaurants around for food and no mess with the Addison traffic either. I need more people to agree to the change of location to commit to it.

You do realize that this meet is a month before the 86 meet in San Antonio right? There will be one right before the 86 meet in San Antonio but like I said that still another month away.

Yeah, I had mixed up my months.

In regards to kaboomtown, this year they decided to sell tickets so not just anybody can show up. I think they did that so that they COULD control the crowd to an extent.
