My Best Guess... ... ...
Anyone up for a study group... sometime between the meet... i'll make sure i bring my deorderant... Well, as far as i know... we are going to meet up at 2:00 p.m. for sure... depending on how many TL's/Acura's show about 10 to 15 minutes looking around and asking questions to each of the drivers that would take about 1hr. 30min. to 2 hours... finishing about or around 5:00 p.m. So around 5:00 p.m. we can just bring our cars to a big circle or something (hippy style lol) and put some blankets or something on the floor and help you study for about an hour or two... making it around 6 to 7 p.m... then around 7 or 8 we can go to eat dinner somewhere... (burger and fries)BRAIN FOOD!!! and we can all keep talking about future mods or some rambling type stuff, the president??? I ...
Of course this is my guess and most of this stuff really/probably won't happen that way... just my imagination running wild... ... My guess is that not everyone will want to go do everything everyone else wants to do and some of us might leave early anyways (not me )... so i'm guessing it would be finished around 9:30 p.m 10:00 p.m. if all goes well... if not... we will meet for 10 to 15 minutes and then just and thats it... again... I really ...

It's alright if we don't do this but it's always nice to have driving buddies the entire way!

Alright I've just talked to w1n78 and ELA.TL about the pre-meet squared and we've decided to meet at the Westfield Shopping Center in Arcadia.
http://www.westfield.com/santaanita/getthere/map/
For all you 626/909 people that will be using 210 or somewhere nearby, join us!
It's going to be in the far corner of the parking lot outside Macy's (right next to the firestation). There will be a lot of people at the mall on Sunday so I figured it's easier to meet farther from the stores.
I'll bring my magical orange traffic cone so you guys can spot me easily
Please come @ 11:45 - 12:15. No Later!
No later than that cuz we gotta jet before we are late!
Here's a map i draw quickly in case you don't get it:
Anything please PM me or post on thread.

Incase the above is unclear. Will you be going to the meet at 1:00 p.m at the best buy...???

Arcadia Mall -> Porter Ranch Best Buy -> Conejo Creek Park

#130
lol.. well i`m from Van Nuys area, if anyone nearby wants to meet up somewhere around the area (Reseda, Granda Hills, Northridge, Winnetka) before heading to the Best Buy pre-meet then that`d be great =) and yay, seems like it`s not going to rain, car wash before the meet =D

A friend just called and told me about this Toyota Driving thing going on at the Rose Bowl this weekend. Since our meet is Sunday, He and I decided to go to the Rosebowl on Saturday.

Weekend of Cars for me!!!!
As for the Meets, I'm going to go straight to the park (Not back track to BB) and I will probably be getting there 30 mins early to stake out some parking.
For those who havent read this whole thread, on page 3 or 4 I posted a Satellite Photo of the Park we are meeting at once you get to the Janss Address. Do NOT use the earlier map posted by another member as it leads to the wrong parking lot.
As far as what to bring, I'll prolly bring some cold sodas or something. If it was anything other than a Car meet, I would be inclined to bring alchohol, but in this situation I'm steering clear.

Ok Spook... you do realize that Thousand Oaks is a good 30 to 45 minutes from where I live... You also realize that Arcadia and 909 is pretty from there too...
The choice is yours but you are most welcome to come and spend Saturday night checking out the pre-event spot (the original pre-meet spot BB). While there in Porter Ranch there are the requisite eateries (TGIF, Soup Plantation, etc...)
Bear in mind you will not be able to do both Arcadia and Best Buy parking lot in the same night...
I'm going to PM you right now to give you my home number... if you want to call me...

I've probably driven by the city on the way to SF/SJ but didn't stop.
It's cool dude... most likely there will only be 3 of us including me @ the arcadia mini meet (somehow ELA.TL hasn't PMed me back yet but it shows he read it) so you aren't missing out too much!
haha you are so excited its amusing to watch but then i am too
So what happened to all the 626/909 people?! I thought there would be more from our area.

Dunno if it would be possible to start the thread in the main forum to get lots of views and help convince people to come to the next meet.
As for my impressions of the meet....I had a lot more fun than I initially expected, and I think we need to do this again VERY soon...hope others will be inspired to join next time considering that everyone enjoyed this meet. To all those that made it, really appreciate seeing your cars and all the good conversation. Everyone was representing, and I can't wait for the pix to show all of our rides in all their glory.
BTW, Salut, please post the gas stations pics....Its only fair.
#153
yea it was a cool meet.. anyways my original plan on taking 101 to 405 then 10 then 60 worked out better, right at the junction for the 405 the traffic pretty much became a parking lot on the 101.. anyways im DLing my pictures from my cam where should i post them? here or a new thread?

Dang Mizouse, you beat me home! (oh I was kidding about screwing your mid-term school is very important Good luck on your test.)
It was nice to match a face to each user, I had a great time hanging out. I'll try to get the pics up tomorrow. If anyone is interested in the pics I can zipped them up and send a link for download, just let me know.

Guys I had a blast. I agree with Vtec=happiness, lets do it again soon. Also a little off topic, Salut, Leo, Casper42, Vtec-happiness, you are so lucky I was in the rear watching your six. The CHP on the 23 fwy made a u-turn with his lights flashing and tried catch us but I block him off by going slow with traffic while you guys got clean away. I got a nice glare from him. Keep watching your rear and again it was a pleasure.
