Well, depending on what day and time (time is VERY important...early sucks...people like sleeping in on Saturdays 
), I'm sure I can swing an hour and a half drive...Alex will come, he likes driving. Get a date and time and I'll put something in the Charlotte thread about it and see if I can get some others to caravan down with us.

They used to have a nascar track in columbia back in the 60s /70s. It is an paved oval track, but they use it occasionally for people on bicycles
It was home to one of the 1st nighttime nascar races. Someone should get some money up and restore the track.

I went to the red line time attack practice run session today... I have pics! It looks like AMS is going to take it their evo 10 ran a lap of 1 minute 34 seconds for that track. The only acura representing was the nsx. Lots of skylines showed up. It looked like a skyline mini meet.

hey guys, nothing concrete yet, but im shooting for fall break, I believe thats first weekend in October? I'm not particularly sure.
Planning a meet in October gives everyone plenty of time to figure out schedules and whatnot.
I'll be putting together a meet thread soon, keep checking in here!
Oh, and it'll be in Columbia by the way...nice place + central to everyone

As long as it doesn't fall on the Tail of the Dragon Weekend...
Charleston is a nice place to have a meet too, lots of nice areas to take pics... although pretty crowded.

Oh, I'll definitely be there, regardless of location, although a Charleston meet 
. I haven't been down there in a few years...it's such a wonderful place...soooooooooooo much fun to be had there. I'd probably take a day off work and make a long weekend out of it. Somebody needs to find me a job in Charleston...

Ok people, what's the status of this? Let's get it going! This is much easier to plan than a mega meet or a TOTD meet. SC isn't that big, so any location is close. Columbia's central and Charleston has everything then some. Don't tell me a NC resident has to plan the SC meet

I can do next weekend. That's a lot of driving for you, though, Sean. Up and back, up and back...or would you stay in Columbia...or drive on to Charlotte?

The last meet I attended in Cola, was at the Village at Sandhills. A good bit of parking, but security ran us off after 30 mins of hanging out in the parking lot. Just a suggestion though.

Why would we want to go somewhere where our business isn't respected and appreciated? People always spend money at meets, be it lunch, dinner, drinks (alcoholic or non-alcoholic), whatever, at nearby places. If we were making a bunch of noise, bothering other people, racing, etc., I could see it, but we don't.

Sweet. It's also good because my weekend filled up, so I wouldn't have been able to do it this weekend. I don't even know how I'm going to do everything I'm supposed to be doing. Best part is, very little of it's work

Sean, care to explain how your screen name is a tag for this thread?

And he's arriving at the tail end. Usually around the 2nd or 3rd week of September the humidity breaks.
