Yeah! Hey, I'm lost! What are we talking about?
I'd probably be down as long as it's not in TX. That's too far to drive.
that would be awesome to have a meet with all the south central guys. The meet should be somewhere in the middle of the south central such as Oklahoma City or Dallas.
Of course I'd be game for Dallas again...short drive. I'm always game for a meet, especially large scale. We'd have to get a SC shirt, maybe we can use that guy from the AssClown award, he R3PR3S3NTS!!
I say here. Where is here? Oklahoma City.
Or.... Dallas, but I go to Dallas too much as it is...
I live for road trips! I can drive up to 7 hours, 10 if I can get off early from work and get some
. Located in New Orleans...lemme know where you guys decide to go, I would love to attend.
;}Heather
I would love to attend also, but I vote not Dallas, nothing at all against Dallas, we were just there for the Nationals. It was fun, but I would like a somewhere new.
later
You suggest Shawnee?
OK wouldn't be all that far of a drive
What about Shreveport? Casinos could keep me quite entertained. Or hey...what about New Orleans, I've heard there are a few things to do around there.

You can all drive to Lubbock and we can all have fun doing...
Oh wait, nevermind.

Cattle??
I still say have the meet here in OKC as there are quite a few things to do around here. We got lots of gaming places, thundervalley speedway, just to name a few. Besides, OK seems to be centrally located for everyone too. And like I said, I go to Dallas enough as it is. Come to Oklahoma!!!!
i think stolon is right.OK is probably the best place besides we could try to get some track time at thunder valley like he said.oh and of course there's 39th street

OKC...need a good road trip every now and then...
Yeah that sounds like a good plan to me.
Well as soon as we get more feedback and see if this is what everyone would like to do, we'll start working on making things happen.
Depending on how many people are interested in doing this, we can see about getting up a discount at a hotel for everyone to stay at. A lot depends on what everyone wants to do. We can make this lean more towards car stuff or car and family related stuff. We definately can set up time at Thunder Valley, I don't see that as a problem. There's so much to do around here if I stop and think about it. So some sort of consensus on format would be a good start so everyone doesn't drive here just to stare at all each others cars. Oh, The club scene in Bricktown is really great too, along w/ bricktown itself. And of course, there's always the crusing strip AKA 39th street, on Sat nights, which is always fun and good for a few laughs too.
how far is OKC from st. louis? i think some of us might be interested as long as we dont have to drive all damn day....
Well its about 498 miles away, the drive will only take about 8 hours and I'm sure thats driving 65 mph. So if you drive like I do, which is about 70-85 mph,
than you will cut down on that time by alot.
St. Louis is an 8 hour drive flying low!!! If you drive like normal people, it's more like a 10 hr drive...
Well thats what mapquest said it would be at 65 mph.

I've driven the St. Louis circuit many, many, many times, and you'd be good to get down here in 8hrs w/o driving fast...
Alrighty then, So back on topic... Let's see a show of hands of how many of you are intersted in making a nice drive up, or down, or over, what every your case would be to OKC? Then we can all come to a decision on a time schedule...
How long would it take, like... walking?
You can ride with me if you promise to sit there and not talk.
Will Jill bring friends??
That is a 10 hour drive for me, if you guys do a meet, I would be interested in the hotel discount option. I've never been there and if I can make it, I'd love to visit OKC. Are there budget hotels in the area?
/me raises hand on OKC as location for a meet
Would this be a single day event or a full weekend?
I will attend wherever it may be. Just plan ahead well enough so I can get time off work and see if it may affect school any. I didn't make the SZ02 or the Dallas deal so I need to make up for lost times.
I think for the best interest of everyone, this will probably be a full weekend event. I will start looking around to see what good rates/discounts we can get for some hotel rooms. Right now, I think maybe sometime in early Oct. would be good? This would give pleanty of time to plan. Let me get w/ the instigator of all this and some of the other OK people so we can come up w/ some fun stuff to do.
I'm game for something early October, I'll be in the area to visit my son around then.. (and the good ole DFW CEG, but mainly my son
)

Kewl Seeing as this appears it's going to happen, we need to get a local OK meet together and straighten it all out.
A meet to plan for a meet, excellent...i'll try to come up there, just tell me when.

Will Jill come would be a better question. I had her bored to death after one evening of the National Meet. OKC in mid October sounds like a plan to me!

Hey everyone. I got some issues to get squared away w/ both the tours this week, so I'll be running around w/ my head cut off. but hopefully by the weekend, maybe I'll have a better idea as to when to get a local meet together so there can be more information posted regarding the big meet. But w/ this being a holiday weekend, who knows...
Im down for the OKC meet. If all the Dallas area people take 75 north through Durant, we could car pool up to OKC or something. -Nick
I guess I better show up to the meet to plan everything since this was my big idea.
We'll keep everyone posted on what we come up with and whatnot.

You guess you'd better show up?? Don't make me smack you...
LOL
OK you talked me into it I'll be there.

Yep, you'd only spend about an hour off the freeway (if you head straight over from Durant to Ardmore).
Wish I could make it out
When I go to Chandler I take 48 to 3 to 99 to 40 to 18. I get to there in 2 hours 15 mins, so this way is faster to Chandler than through Ardmore. I have never been to OKC from Durant so I dont know if my way is faster to OKC too. If it is, we could go my way and get there quicker. I am not sure if I could be down for the pre-meet though... -Nick
I didn't make SZ02 or nationals either so I'll probably be there too.
-R-
Well everyone, some of the locals are getting together this afternoon to hash out some of the details so maybe we'll have something more informative by tonight.
Ok, here's a very basic general idea of what to expect. We've decided on dates for Oct. 17th-20th. Thur-17th, we'll have a general gathering in the evening, more than likely at one of our local pizza places, (The Hidaway), around 7ish. For Friday-18th, we're checking into a few places for afternoon fun for gaming and go karts and what not; Friday eveingy is planned for Thunder Valley and anyone who wants to run their car in the 1/4 can if they wish. Sat-19th, checking into doing the dyno thing during the day, along w/ a possible show&shine and prizes. That night is open to go cruise the local cruising strip and have a good time. Sun-20th,last day, go to Frontier City (Six Flag's mini style... ) And that's about all the information I have to pass along for now. There should be some hotel information up really soon. Times and more info on cost of everything will be posted as it becomes available, which will hopefully be really soon.
sorry guys, I can't make it. My uncle is getting married that weekend and I am the best man! Sounds like a good time!! I am sure that someone will take pics......
You're not quite so important. This Mandy girl, on the other hand...
I'm not gonna promise anything because I'll be in a military school for the whole month of October, but if the class is going good and I can get away that weekend I'll try to show up, even though I don't have the SVT anymore.
Mike
I'm not promising anything right now but I'll try and make it if possible. Honestly it isn't very likely so I'll just have to wait and see.
Mike,
If you go down you wanna share a car, er truck? I don't think I'll want to take my tour if you'd be up for sharing a ride. Thats totally you're call of course, lemme know.
Brad, read your e-mail, I totally think we should take your car. Blues Brothers all the way yo!!!! lol
I don't mind sharing a ride down there. As long as I don't get tied up with this class, all should be cool.
Mike
I'm in for that weekend as well
DANG!!
Test on 17th.
Test on 18th.
(Not to mention test on 14, test on 16
)
I'm going to be swamped.
I definately wont be making it out on Thursday or Friday, which kinda takes away from 1/2 the fun of going there.
Don't worry Derek, if me and Brad make it, we'll take pictures...of the Bluesmobile hehe
We might just have to start calling it that Mike, your email was right on. In all honesty we probably wouldn't make it to the border with the two of us in my car.
I could just see us getting pulled over by Highway Patrol because parts were randomly falling off the car!!
A bit of bad news for the meet, I just got a new job today(pending a drug test!
) and my training will just be ending the weekend before so there is no way I'd be able to take off the weekend of the meet. Sorry guys, you won't get a chance to bask in the glory that is ME!
I guess it's just Mandy and me then!!
Dammit Brad, I wanted to be Elwood!!!!
Would anybody be opposed to moving it up a weekend to the 12th/13th? Just thought I would post and see if it was possible.
Hey everyone we need to find out how many people are coming.
So if you know you are coming for sure post and let us now so we can get a head count.
Right now I have about 15 people that have posted in this post that they are coming or are interested. Sorry its taking some time to get all the info together.
Should have all the details, times, and place to stay this coming week.
Just thought I would update so people don't lose interest.
This discussion is still going on. Has anyone set a date yet?
Yes there has been a date set it will be held on the 17-20 of october. I'm waiting on the hotel to call me back and I will have the place to stay set.
I will be posting a new post with all the info and times and what will happen.
Ahhh, I won't beable to attend.. My second born's first birthday is that weekend... Born: 10-16-01
anyone from Dallas going/ wanting to go??
Oh well, I can't make it that weekend either. Good friend's wedding. You guys have fun and take lots of pics!
Well got the prices for the La Quinta, it will be $68 plus tax for two full size beds and $75 plus tax for one king size bed. Hope more of you will be able to make it.

Of course you can come, anyone can come. Even bring friends! So far, the hotel is $68 I believe, and right now, it just looks like food costs and fun monies. We are still throwing around the idea of a raffle for prizes, just for the fun of it. The hotel info and #'s should be posted tomorrow. Will have more info to pass along then about other costs. Everything is starting to fall into place now so hopefully any questions will be cleared and answered shortly.
we should try to have so kinda swap meet or something cause i am intrested in getting some parts for my car and i know there is people that want to see them.

Thats a cool idea.
Lets work on something like that.
Hey, I think I can make it on those days. Might bring a friend too. I wont be able to do the Thursday night, but I can be there from Friday on. Where exactly in OKC will you be on Friday night? -Nick
Cool glad to hear you're going to make it. The more the better.
Friday night we'll be at thunder valley drag strip for drag racing.
Not quite sure about friday afternoon yet, I'll have to get with stolontour97 on that.
