I live in Raleigh, along with a few other guys on here. I think between the 4 of us we could get some things set up. Along with the help of Faiz, since this was his idea, and any others who want to help. The fair grounds is a great place to have it.Check it out http://www.ncstatefair.org .Right in the middle of Raleigh. Plenty of bathrooms. Lots of parking. We can rent a part of the grounds like we did for the Mustang meet. Depending on the size it ranges from about $150-$300 for the whole day. My buddy does BBQ cooking contest and can prob do all the grilling for us. Like I said, this is just some thoughts. Just want it to be resonable to everyone on the EC

Yeah, I'm kinda hoping that the poll will help us figure that out. The people coming from south of NC are gonna pick North Carolina (Raliegh) and the people from the north are gonna be picking DC or VA Beach. We should be able to make an accurate determination from that, I hope.

I think Virginia Beach won't work. It's way too far off east, everyone would have to get off 95 and drive another 1.5 hours, if you want to do VA Beach, you might as well just do it in Richmond which is right off I95. I vote for DC though.

That's a good point. It is a bit of a PITA to get over to VA Beach. The easiest way from up North though is to either take US-13 or to get off 95 to 295 to 64. From the South, 95 to US-58 is really the best option.

I voted NC. Not because I live here, I don't mind driving to DC, but it' 5 hours for me from the Raleigh area. I'm sure anybody south of me would say the hell with it.
Raleigh is smack in the middle. It just makes sense.

Im down for Va Bch. Theres tons of places out there, and a few Acura dealers that may be willing to sponsor. VA police isnt that bad if you have out of state tags (like me). Just dont do anything really stupid and you wont get pulled over.

so sounds to me like Richmond is going to be between Raleigh and DC/Maryland? I guess we can make a decision after more people have voted in the Poll. Reguardless I think the sticker idea is cool too. I saw the stickers the cali-boys had and they looked badass!

It's not really a in between issue of Raleigh/DC. more of a in between NY/CT and FL/GA area. Geographically NC is middle ways.

Might want to broadcast this in other sections of the east coast regional forum's Acurazine Mega Meet threads. I might be attending depending on the date. Sounds like a good idea and would be a fun caravan.

Honestly, I think VA Beach should be tossed out, way too out of the way for everyone, but would be a cool place in general to have the meet.
Richmond, is smack dab in the middle along with Raliegh, but I think DC would have a better turnout as it seems like most of the AZiners on here are from the Northeast.

i loved the idea that we used for the previous all-cali meets when so.cal crew used ATLP licence plates. but instead of that if we can get acurazine ones with our SN.

Honestly. if people are really wanting to get this huge meet going then get some sponsors. local acura dealerships. id say have a good layout what is going on. like 55 said. we can make it a weekend meet.

Yea, I still think Richmond would be best as well. Va Bch is nice, but it is a bit out of the way. Richmond is right off 95. People from ATL can come right up 85, SC and FL can come right up 95 and people that are east or west of Richmond can hop on 64.

I think Raleigh would be best. I'm in Northern FL and it's probably about a 7+ hour drive. FL is a very long state east/west and north/south. For SFL members it would be 13+ hours. Shoot, from Miami to Jacksonville is about 6 hours and they are still not out of the state. My
