3rd highest, are you stupid?


























He's the first. biggrin.gif

I do agree that the MOST central location should be used, unless there's a bias of attendees from a certain coast/area.

if i still have my celica when this takes place... i would not mind attending PENDING that there is some sort of guarantee that after traveling across half the galaxy this wont turn out to be a dud... I could probably factor it in my paid vacation time too to kill 2 birds with one stone.

Kewl, and trust me, if it's looking like a dud, it wont happen. socal and mid cal 6gcs will attempt a nice caravan(even if i have to show up on their doorsteps to drag em out), and then we can pick up AZ and all the states along the way.

Having been a member of this site in one way or another since site's conception... there seems to be a recurring pattern when people chicken out of the meets. So its kind of hoping for a miracle if you know what I mean with 10% turnout from those that do sign up. I must have gone to 20+ meets 5 of them being from this forum site and I can only hope for the best I suppose.

Yay!

And Yarik, I totally understand on that. Also, with that, if there are enough people that don't chicken out, it'll be good. And with my experience on the meets here I've heard of horror stories about no one showing up or it being super small, but this is not gonna be one of those when it happens. It will be a lot of ppl comin out. Most everyone who has said yes has a good track record(yes I watch the meets from other areas to see who is a flake on here lol). There seemed to only be a couple coming to our last socal meet, yet we had a really nice turn out. Originally had like 8 people sign up, then 4 more signed up through either the forum or pms to me, then had a couple ppl send me msgs the night before the meet saying they were coming(ppl that hadnt even said they were coming yet), so out of like 13, there were a total of 10 members at the most at one point, and some left after most of the day and we met up with one more, so out of even 15 having 11 is a good turn out, especially considering it was a last minute meet. This one will come together.

do you count celicas or those with at least one kind of modification? cause I can see 13-15 absolutely stock celicas if I drive to a produce store wink wink

^ I think Celicas in general should count. Those that are stock are just up-and-coming members to the scene, usually. Not sure what you consider stock...I mean, I have zero engine work.

By stock i meant externally. Seems those troops usually end up attending meets while all fancy shmancy cars never make it to the meet o-O

all im saying is that when people have a capability to see something up close, touch it and look at it from different angles they are a lot more motivated to keep their projects going and ordering parts with confidence.

Here is an example: My ohh my what would a supra spoiler look like on a blue celica? Odds are that you will see a supra spoiler on a blue celica in a meet. Or lets say that you are driving with a body kit and cant figure out how to better mount rear bumper and then you look at 15 other celicas with that bumper and "eureka" moment hits you. Encouragement goes a long way. Thats how most of us old farts got ideas in the first place ;-)

come to think of it. I wouldnt mind driving that far. Especially since i will have a rebuilt motor by then it will be a good time to break it in.

And guys that own supras dont have any respect for fellow 6gcer's. Im sure most of you already knew that.

Encouragement and eureka moments aside, I think it would just be awesome to get together with 6gc's from all over the country as well as other 'Yoties. I'd like to talk to some Supra and MR2 owners to see how they really like their cars, since talking to someone in person is much different than posting in a thread. I'd like to talk to the guys that have done 3S swaps and see how they like daily driving their cars, get stories of times this happened or that happened, etc. Like you said, yarik, it's encouraging plus you get to meet some really cool people.

I'm cool with Spolski going. I'll leave my car on the outskirts with his Mini; I don't want to embarrass the 6gc scene.

i say encouragement depends from person to person. a lot of factors to consider to be really into modding our cars. availability of funds, time, mechanical skills, priorities, etc.

example one can just be photoshoped. there are people who has done that and they do have pics that you can play in photoshop. i know its different when you see it in person but, are you willing to drive thousands of miles just to see a supra spoiler look like on a blue celica?

second example most of the time can be answered in the forums. thats why there is a forum to discuss topics like exterior styling.

but anyway, everyone is welcome with or without mods.

You guys know about the two celicatech.com sponsored meets right? Dragon (May 7-9, Knoxville TN) & Ogopogo (early August, Vernon BC Canada).

The Dragon isn't centralized for the U.S. and wouldn't be fair to most of the country, plus WAYYYYY too many cops and tourists/campers. Aand Vernon, same reason as the first part of the reasons for exing out the dragon(its fun, but there are way better roads with less cops and traffic, even in that area).

I'd like to see Deathtoakill or whatever dudes s/n was that is working on the supra rear and 7g/350front to see if the pics do it justice, or if it just looks good in pics. Theres lots of ppls cars on here I'd like to see in person and lots of ppl I'd like to meet. It will be fantastic when this comes together a bit more(with less excuses of why ppl cant go) and happens.

I'd do it, I've been up and down the east coast, but nothing out west, not even Ohio. Just as long as some other PA'ers go with me. I think it would be pretty sweet. Plus it has to be during the warm/hot months, cuz I wanna ride top down the entire way. Annville, PA to Lebanon, KS is only 1,321 miles (21H 21M) I mean I put that kinda mileage on my car in like 2 weeks. I just noticed there are toll roads, I hate toll roads, I wonder how much they are. Anyway, I totally down, especially if other 6GC's are going to be there!

New Brunswick to Lebanon, KS (everytime I think Lebanon, I think down the street for me.....Lebanon, PA biggrin.gif ) is 2138.2 miles, 31 hr 19 min. If you're willing to drive that, my god people come on, it'll be fun!

Hey-o! We got one Canadian in! If it's not this summer but next, I might have my car completely done. Getting a " thumbsup.gif " over a picture of my car is one thing, but to see people and have them say "Oh, well I like this but you could use some work here" would really get things going. I think a meet like this can be done if we give it enough time. Of course, 6gc isn't a huge community, so we'll inevitably have to have the support of other forums, but this could be epic.
