Good thing I have a hand wash scheduled at a detail shop at 9 am Sunday morning!

DJBlast & the other guy meeting me at the mall - You should meet me there instead of the mall. It's on 355 and E Gude intersection. Then we can just shoot straight down the road to Point A.

Thumbs up

Take me off the maybe list and make me a definite for both the meet and the cruise. I also have 2 walkie talkies but not sure of their range. I will bring them but I am not sure of how to program them. My instructions are somewhere in my storage unit as I have just come back from Iraq.

Hey guys, super excited for this Sunday. I can't wait to see all the cars that show up. It's supposed to be fairly nice and clear on Sunday. Just a little info I have that I'd thought I'd pass along. 1. A member of a local car forum says that police have been cracking down on speeding and whatnot along Skyline Drive and surrounding areas, especially at the end of the month. And the VA police are serious about enforcing the no Radar Detectors law. Everybody here seems like respectable car enthusiasts so I don't foresee us having any problems. 2. Apparently, there is another meet/cruise hosted by a local VA shop, at around 11AM. Just throwing that out there. See you all on Sunday!

Documentation

No, you don't need to sign anything. I'm bringing my Sony 3CCD Sony Video Cam to document so it would be nice to have some "set up" video at Stage 1. Ideally I would like all of the cars in a couple of rows so I can go down the parking lot and get everyone standing with their cars (maybe a squat or stand in front of license plates to hide them because this WILL be posted) and then maybe we could get a bunch to park in a large circle, side by side, nose pointing to center so I could stand in the middle and just do a circle on the tripod. I've seen that done before and it's a pretty cool effect.

While in Skyline I may pick a point and set up on the side of the road and get all of you guys (and gals) going by at bumper height. If we have time to set any of this stuff up it will make for some great memories that everyone can see online.

I may try to mount it in the car for awhile, too, to get some driving. I won't dare mount it on the outside!! And passengers never do a good job holding these things still enough to keep you from chucking when watching it later...

Does anyone know of an underpass or bridge nearby that would make for a good camera shot from above of all these hot cars passing by? Sorry, don't own a chopper...

See you guys Sunday!!

I just talked with Astroboy, he said it is okay that Im going to hand out the Acurazine Stickers.

So like I said, I had to pay for them, Im not looking to make any money I just wanna break even. I have 60, they will be $1 each and the max is 2 per car.

This is exactly the type of stuff I was hoping for. Shoot me a PM and I will try to work with you to see how best to help you get these videos. Also, if you know any of the guys in the local area who is a good photog and can tag along, I'd love to get some near pro level photos too.

Post Updated List and Response's at the bottom

I just removed people that had to cancel on the meet. It would be way to time consuming to re-number the whole list everytime someone cancel's. I'll update again probably before Saturday.

What: AcuraZine's 1st Annual Skyline Meet & Cruise

When: Sunday. October 29, 2006

Who: AcuraZine Members

Where: Shenandoah National Park on the Blue Ridge Mountains aka Skyline Drive

Caravans:
Point A: Gap/Barnes N' Noble on 355
Meet at 10ish and leave no later than 10:30 to head for Point B
12055 Rockville Pike
Rockville , MD 20852
Point B: Office Complex By JMBNOVA's House Map Link
10358 Eaton Pl
Fairfax, VA 22030
Meet here BY 11:15 to head for the Ralley Point In Manassas, VA.

Ralley Point #1 - The 'Meet' Portion Of The Whole Event Meeting at NOON:
11380 Bulloch Dr
Manassas, VA 20109

Meeting Time: 12:00 Noon
Organizing Cars To Leave Parking Lot: 1:00 PM
Leaving The Parking Lot And Heading Off To Skyline: 1:30 PM SHARP


This is 21 miles (25 min.) from Tysons Mall in VA right off I-66. We'll meet across from the Old Navy store in that shopping center. This will be the "meet and greet" part of the entire meet. Then we'll have the drive to the K-mart (which is right outside of Skyline Drive) to gather everyone up one last time before we enter Skyline.

Ralley Point #2 - Just Before Entering Skyline:
K-mart
465 South Street
Front Royal, VA 22630 Link For Map
PICTURE OF MEETING SPOT LINKED HERE

Cost: $15 dollars to enter Skyline Drive. Make sure to have $15 dollars exactly so then we don't have to worry about the gate keeper needing enough change for all 60+ cars!

We'll drive around in Skyline for about 30 minutes (or longer if people want to), and then park in Skyline Drive to talk, chat, chill,take pics, and then roll out of there when everyone's ready to leave. Probably around like 4 o'clock or something I'm guessing.

Thanks man! I try my best! haha. I just hope no one blames ME for a little chaos with all the cars ... which I think is impossible not to have a little chaos with some many people. I just tried to make all the plans so people could afford to get split up and everyone would have a firm address to meet up at incase we all did get seperated before Skyline, ya know?

Got a link or any more info on their meet?

phatintegra - Yeah, I use to work at details for a couple years before they switched over to their current owners. They do a good job on my car anytime I go in there ... so that's why I'll take it there 1st thing Sunday morning, ha. Extra freshness!

dmfgrf - That's fine if you wanna document everyone next to their car, etc. (MAKE SURE to re-size all the pics down to 700 x 500 so they'll load in a good amount of time once you post them on here). But what I really suggest is maybe you plan out on paper exactly how you would like everyone set up for the pictures ... because last time it took over 90 minutes to set up one pic with only 1/2 the amount of cars. That took wayyy to long imo. I'm not familiar at all with the area so I don't know if there's ample room for the pics ur looking for .. I'm sure it'll all work out tho!

ANDY03CL-S - Good man, make sure you have a lot of dollar bills for change!

Did you work there back in 2003? My teg was getting detail there and Huricane Isabela came thru and they could not start my car up due to a dead battery. I was getting ready to leave for Nopi National (I drove throw it). That day was the worst experence I had. Lucky I send my sister across the street to get me a battery and right when my credit card went thru the power went out. she came back with the new battery and I install it there with no lights in the bay.

There was 2 men that managed the place. 1 Owner - Alex, who was white, mid 40's I guess, Austrailian or something. 2 - His side kick/ shop manager - Shaw, he was from Africa, but could probably pass as Hispanic from looks. I dont' know, he was arond 23 yrs old. So it was probably Alex.

I've seen that done before and it's a pretty cool effect....

See you guys Sunday!!
Can you email me any video you have after the meet that way i can have more than two shots from my car.lol.?

Yep the car is still in the shop swap is pretty much done but won't be ready from the looks of it so I'll be rolling down with phatintegra. Freind of mines is also coming along to take pics with his SLR, he does great work and you'll like his photo's he's looking to do some rollings shots and still shots at skyline drive it should be fun.

Just and update for everyone...

I tabulated the attendees and we currently have:

68 cars registered for the meet
65 cars registered for the cruise

When you arrive at the parking lot in Manassas, look for the group and someone should be able to direct you to where to park. We want to keep things organized so we will try to park the like models next to each other.

Also, please have your $15 ready before we leave for the cruise. This will save time because nobody will need to get change.

Looking forward to this on Sunday. Keep your fingers crossed for bright sunny skies.

Small Discrepency

All,

Ghost has the following on a previous post.


Ralley Point #2 - Just Before Entering Skyline:
K-mart
465 South Street
Front Royal, VA 22630 Link For Map
PICTURE OF MEETING SPOT LINKED HERE


The picture is actually of the meet spot for Rally point 1, not rally point 2. I just wanted to clear that up in case some people try and use it for reference.

Start parking in the area circled in red on the right. Ive counted over 70 spaces.
If there are too many "straggler cars" there, then start parking in the black circle on the left. This keep us away from people actually shopping.

Ive attached the pic again below.

I just counted and it looks like we should have close to 100 spaces in that red area alone so we should be fine and can probably stagger a bit.

The Shenandoah Valley Corvette Club is doing their annual Skyline drive that same weekend. It shouldn't be too much of a conflict and we might just run into them, which would be kinda fun.

As for the park fee, it's per car.
