idk..pismo would be nice
personally, i think SB is too far south for anyone in nor cal
i say its either Fresno (which im sure we have dealer support/sponsorship again)
or pismo (bbq, beach do whatever you want)
who knows, it may be nice to step away from the sponsors, booths, ect and just have a good ol meet. idk. im just thinking aloud

i'm willing to take pictures of whatever, and i'm closer to the chumash (45 min tops) than murph145 so it wouldn't be as inconvenient (that is unless you really want to go then by all means)
just let me know what is needed and i'll do the scouting
btw murph145 your avatar is hilarious, especially since i'm going to be my friend's wingman this weekend

SHAWD 04TL is in
Chumash is a nice casino. I've been there once for a business meeting. But checking online looks like their hotel is booked on the last weekend of sept if that is the date we are going to use. Also Bryan makes a good point Fresno Acura did sponsor and help out with Acurafest. Is there a dealership over there that is willing to do the same.

or, if we do pismo, we can just do a regular-non dealer sponsored meet like the first two meets. we dont need awards, display cars, booths ect. just hang out and meet people over some nice looking cars and some good food
it may be a nice change of pace/venue.we all can drive our cars on the beach (5 dollar day fee cost) and take pics there if you guys arent too scared of getting your cars a little dirty. my MS3 makes it out on the beach just fine.
or we can do fresno, Fresno Acura has had our backs for the last two meets, im sure they would help out for a third.
it just depends on what kind of meet we want.

i had a feeling the so cal guys would vote for Chumash
but we also need to make it fair for everyone else. if norcal backs out, then i would say it needs to be a little more centralized for everyones sake

haha im definately not driving my car on sand. and yea, SB is pushing it a little bit for us nor cal people, and even if we are willing to make the drive, its the principal! we want equal treatment! i can do with out the car demos and stuff..but awards are always fun.

just friends, food, cars, and fun. We dont need anything else to have a good time. theres plenty to do in the central coast area (pismo)
I missed out the first two meets, it would be nice to have that type of(low effort) meet. just arrange a meeting place, set a date, and have everyone show up

i'm only speaking for myself but i feel like i might be left out of the loop without vendors or sponsors just bc no one knows me personally. i went to one of the hat meets in pasadena a while back and only one person talked to me even though i tried introducing myself to everyone i came across
but maybe this will be better

im at the coast right now. im getting the gfs car serviced while she is at school. i can drive around afterwards and see if theres any decent sized parks around
if you guys want to have dealer involvement and sponsors, Fresno would be the best bet. Fresno Acura has had our back and im sure they wouldnt hesitate to sponsor us again.

i agree, the booths and vendors are a nice touch, but why not take it back to the original type of all cali meet? I know roger has put a lot of effort into the past two acurafests/all-cali meets, but taking it back to what made it what it is would be nice.

socal drove up to fresno 2 years ago and a bit further up last year.
both 4 hours+... you guys were 2.5-3 hours away.
we drove... blowing tires.. bending rims... wheels/spacers coming loose..
but if you really want equal treatment.. just have it in pismo.

SHAWD 04TL is in
Called Chumash 4 times so far & haven't got a return call. Keep you guys posted. So far I have only gotten as far as the front office. I got transferred twice to customer relations & the rest were to the promo director. Ill keep you guys updated.
The goal here is to get a dollar amount so we know how much we have to fork out.

I think we should just make it a regular meet no vendors or anything like that... sit in the park and chill. The woodward park meet in Fresno was perfect and so was the one before that.
I say have it in Pismo... since the voting is all screwed up..

i have a spot: its in the Village of Arroyo Grande. its right past Pismo Beach (5 mins) off the 101 and Grand Ave (Road 227)
they host the strawberry festival there and its a pretty big park. it spans behind the right hand side of the village.
if i go back on saturday for the Pismo Car show, then ill snap some pics. there is a bbq area, and there is a creek that runs through the park.
ill see if i can get on google maps for the meantime
