86EXPO 2015 Ideas



Last year was a lot of fun & yes, I want to do it again, 86EXPO!!!

This time, I want to hear feedback from you guys on few things.

1. Date?
2. Location?
3. Venues?

If you say "cuz it's close to my place", I'll just ignore the post. plz be serious, cuz I'm serious here.

Anyone who went to '13 or '14 event and wish to "add" or "fix" something from the event, you're more than welcome to post it!

Thanks

ichi

I went to the first 86 EXPO back in las vegas, really enjoyed the event. Great memories and people. That being said I wouldn't mind seeing the 86 EXPO 3 somewhere on the west coast since it was back east last year.
1. May 30, 2015 or June 6, 2015? (Random dates when the weather should be good)
2. Fontana, CA or Rosamond, CA
3. Autoclub speedway (Great for auto X and a meet and greet), or Willow Springs raceway (Great for track day with everyone, and meet with fellow members)

1. Date- summer, after 4th of July and before labor day 9/7
2. Location- Near a track or some nice roads, affordable lodging
3. Venue- Maybe something with 86cup? Maybe we can rent the track the other day they aren't racing?

I do like Cali. I have A LOT of friends in Cali (mostly in SoCal)... but issue with Cali is there are enough 86/BRZ events over there. FT86Nation and famous 86Fest. Don't get me wrong, would love to have it in Cali... but Cali isn't in my list.

The dream scenario for me would be at COTA.

-Nice and warm/sunny.
-Central location
-Most of us I'm sure are dying to see the track

Not sure if it would be a viable option for this year though as it's already March

Denver. Theres a track here thats fairly close (http://highplainsraceway.com/), Mountain cruises are always fun, its in a fairly central location.

1) July-Sept
2) Las Vegas
3) Not sure, but need a bigger meet site than the Toyota dealer from 2013

I think Vegas should be used as the West Coast location. Vegas draws a big crowd because it is Vegas and has so much to do. Just look at the other car clubs that host large events in LV (Supras In Vegas, SubieInvasion, etc). The cruise was fun and autox was cheap and a good venue/arrangement as well.
