Default MT get together

I just want to throw something out there in the open. Im thinking maybe this summer at some point and time we should set up a place and time that everyone can get together. This gives everyone a chance to meet, show off there cars, and give out advice. I think it would be a blast and great time to make a weekend get together. Its just a thought, so any ideas go ahead and post em.

i think alot of people would be down for it. As previously said, make a road trip out of it. Maybe find a place that has a drag strip near by. Make a weekend trip or 4/5 day thing. I think alot of people would be down. I live in Davenport, IA with a strip about 45 minutes away(Cordova Drag Way) I might even be able to have a few stay here(I live with my parents still, im only 19) so its just a thought that i think many people would be down for it.

I would definitely be down for it, but this site is nationwide, how would we get a time that most active members could all have 4-5 days off? Also...a bigger issue is the meeting place. And what we would do. I'm cool for a road trip, but not like across the usa.everybody should post here where they live if they are down for it. We show all riot at the MT factory for free stuff.









lol, jk about that last part.

I like the whole idea of posting where we live. That way we could find a spot maybe in the middle. We could have a big car rally and do a little racing, maybe some burnout contest. Stuff like that. Just make a party out of it.

We can do it by region and if its not big enough we can meet at another event. There is a Mustang car show coming up in April in Ft Lauderdale .

I love San Antonio. I have have family in Canyon Lake and I go there every year.



On another note:

I think the get together idea ia a great idea... but it would have to be regional. Since I live in Baton Rouge, I could make a "SouthEast Event" - as long as it was in reasonable driving time from me (no more than about 7 hours).
