Im assuming the Lo-Cal Caravan Will Start in
San Diego
Orange County
North Hollywood
Bakersfield
Fresno

Bay Area Caravan
SF
Gilroy
Madera (to merge with the Sac Caravan)
Fresno

Sacramento Caravan
Sacramento/ElkGrove
Modesto
Madera (to merge with the bay area caravan)
Fresno
Hey Roger, you got the locations right for the Sac caravan but I dont think this year we will be stopping in Modesto unless I get multiple requests from members in that area. The Madera location will be the same (home depot parking lot) but the Elk Grove location may change since the empty dealership from last year maybe occupied. I will try to keep it in the auto mall though. More details to come from my caravan thread. I will open the thread when the start time for the meet becomes avaliable.

Glad we finally got the ball rolling on acurafest! I've been itching to find out what's the deal

I'm most likely going again, with a friend from the honda forums who drives a 02 accord. But this year, I helped my cousin get his RSX and he's itching to go as well and so is his TSX friend.

So on the list, please add Anthony 23 (03TLS 6MT), Victor 19(RSX), Andrew 19(TSX), James 23(Accord)

It'll be nice to see everyone again as last year was fun!

Not yet, but it would be the same like last year. San Diego crews will either travel up to OC the day before or going up very early in the morning on the meet day (like 4-5am). In OC, we gathering at Super AutoToyz (used to be Super Autobacs) at around 7am. Head up to North Hollywood to meet LA crews. From there, we will all caravan together to meet with Bakerfield crews and head to the meet location. You might need to check the SoCAl subforum for more info.

I think last year we didnt have it at Ford cause its too close to the street and security would kick us out and the Acura lot is too small. I may go out there to scout before I start the caravan thread just to make sure.

Can I get a confirmation on this? I am waiting for this piece of information before I start my caravan thread cause I need to set up the gathering times too.

Well I was thinking we'd keep every thing pretty close to last year.

I'm coordinating with others to verify that.

i think mike meant just random people off the street. that was our problem last year. i dont think members of the board are excluded because they no longer have an Acura
I dont mind if any other cars show up. I was basing my response off the original post. Are we going to segregate the Acura's from other cars manufacturers to keep it clean for photos or are we going to comingle makes?

agreed. i always enjoy taking BIG group shots. but seeing as how we're all going to be on the roof of the parking lot, i imagine its going to be hard to get up high and get a good shot.
