A local club of mine hosts and event during the summer...
I'm trying to gauge interest about a meet my local club does. It's called the Deuces Wild Poker Run and is hosted by TunerCoalition. It meets up at Cobb Tuning Surgeline and there is a Poker Run portion (hence the name) and a car show. There's prizes to win, lots of fun to be had, very family friendly. I don't have an exact date for it, but just know it's during the summer. It's a fantastic meet up and the turnout has gotten better every year. We've been trying to make it a larger meet for a while now, so the more cars the better!
So, anything you NW86ers would be interested in? |

That's one way of winning prizes. We leave out in little convoys and cruise out on a bunch of backroads and make stops at stations where you pick out a card and build your hand, then when you arrive back at Cobb you turn in your hand as a sort of raffle ticket.
...but if we really wanted to we can set up a poker game I'll bring the cigars.

Can I just come to hang out and get drunk? I'm terrible at gambling and in a shitty mood when I lose.

Sweet! I don't have an exact date yet, I just wanted to gauge interest; but it seems like you guys would all be down for this! We normally do it in either July or August, it's a whole hell of a lot of fun and it would be awesome to get NW86 in to represent! As soon as I get an actual date as the time for it nears I'll post a new thread and help get all'y'all signed up.

Its not actually playing poker really. Its driving to check points and being given a card at each one. After all check points have been reached the field "plays" their hands for a shot at a pot. Its just s fun way to go for a drive and have some excitement brewing at the end.

Sounds fun - I'd love a reason to bring the car out and enjoy a drive in the nice weather! Games and good company are a plus
