Not coming?.. why not.
I don't have a very high regard for the majority of revsceners.
I'd lose it after seeing all the mommy and daddy financed M3's, Benz's, s2k's, infiniti's, all that bs with those mods those fobs didn't pay for.
Besides, I fight would probably break out between some of the other posters and me

No. 
I think ODC can't lower himself to be seen in Ford still. C'mon! You'll have other SVT's there. You like putting to shame bad posters, so put to shame the guys who keep slagging you, you have no other way to do it (unless you slap a S/Cer or Turbo, but then you'll still have RS to see it 
)
Just come, you'll get more appreciation than any bling bling Honda or Daddy's Benz.
Any Amuricans coming up?
I was gonna make the drive but I am going home to Houston that weekend. I think we are trying to get another meet together so stay tuned.

I would rather just meet with other SVT owners....I have no desire to see any of the cars at the rEvscene meet...why don't we meet at Kit's beach, and those that want can also visit the meet at Spanish Banks?

I see how it is,
us regulaur Contour owners aren't special enough to be invited to your little meet. 
j/k 
just being brief....of course I mean everyone!
Yeah that sounds good too.
Know if we get a group of contours we could have a little section at the revscene meet. With the limited number of domestics there.
Right now, I have another friend from Richmond that is going to join me with his RSX. Were gonna detail our cars at Volvo of Richmond in the Automall before the meet.
So whos going on Sunday.
1. Cris'pus
2. Guntaker
3. DanCanuck
Yeah it would be nice to meet only Contique owners. Only thing is that there is harly enough for people to justify it.
This meet is early, and thought since there'd be more later in the year, when there's nice sunshine, then I'm sure more would come out.
This way people from far far away land might come out to see some SVT's and many import and european cars for a nice enthusiast gathering. I can't meet any earlier for Kits or something, but that's a good idea when there is more available to come. I hope you can make it even if it's for just an hour, and anyone like phlop or vancitykitty (let's get some Cougars too, why not)
this sunday? where at exactly, i'm up for the idea of meeting up, so add me to the maybe list, if i can get more info where these places are.
thanks

Hi Aaron, Yeah it's this Sunday the 13th. The official meet location is at Spanish Banks (up Northwest Marine Drive) near UBC.
Here is a picture I took from the site that shows a route that people pre-meeting at Langara will take. I hope this helps, and I hope to see you there! 
Map from Seattle If that doesn't work. Just type in NW Marine Dr.
Follow it till you see the parking lot full of cars.
Hey all,
Well, I think I will drive down.. its only abou 20 mins from me, and I would like to meet people.
Only thing is, my car will probably look like ass beside some of those fancy SVT's.
My mods for when the weather is nice ... havent happened yet.. (wheels and exhaust). Oh well.. I will tough it out, and be a man about thigns...
Are we meeting at kits? Cheers!

Nice that you are coming out! I'm not sure if were gonna pre-meet anywhere as of yet... Cris'pus has PM'd a few people organizing this revscene event to see if we can get designated parking spots.
I think Chris (Cris'pus) said that he will just show up at about 1pm to the meet so Im guessing that we will just meet up with him there. As for myself, I have a former co-worker that will be coming along with me in his '02 rsx. Since I will be coming up from South Delta, Im going to be stopping by at Volvo of Richmond for a thourough cleaning. Then heading up.
Realistically I want to setup a pre-meet so we can chat etc. Then we can all roll into Spanish Banks together, so if things don't work out. We can still park together.
Chris, DanCanuck, phlop... Are you guys willing to pre-meet somewhere????? 
Nah, its not that I'm ashamed or anything like that.
I just don't like the crowd in general. Too many hongers. Too many m3's/amg's. Too many mommy bought rides.
I may show up at the 1/8m races one of these days, but we'll see.
I'm usually busy too with school and work, so my playtime ain't much lately. And I can think of lots of better things to do than to hang out in a RS meet : p
If there's a Contour pre-meet and I have time, I might show up to that but then I'll head off on my own afterwards.
edit: One of the better meet area's is on the roof of Oakridge on the far corner. It's usually empty and lots of space.
What time is the meet at? (sorry don't feel like scrolling through lots of conversation) Also what time doe sit get over with?

Hey auiotour, the meet at spanish banks starts at 1pm and ends between 3pm and 3:30pm. There is a large cruise afterwards, that I will be doing aswell. Hope you can come!
Yeah, I would be willing for a pre-meet with the CEG people. Just let me know whats going on, and I am there.
Alright nice.
Lets set a time and location for the pre-meet guys.
How does 12:15 or 12:30 sound?
Maybe at the Oakridge parking lot as ODC suggested.
Any other suggestions?
Actually come to think of it... To get the CEG presence out there etc etc. We should meet at Langara. They have a large parking lot. It's easy to find.
I say we meet there at 12:00 or so.
Others will be leaving the Langara premeet at 12:30 and cruise up to spanish banks. That should leave us plenty of time to meet and greet etc.
Let's meet up at 12:00pm (noon) at the Langara College parking lot. The address of Langara College is 100 West 49th Avenue, Vancouver. The parking lot entrance is on the south side of 49th between Cambie st. and Main st.
I'll be there at Langara. Is it one big parking lot on the Cambie (west) side of the school?

Ahh, here's a map that shows exactly where it's going to be.
I'm there! Cant wait to put some faces and cars to you all!
I am gonna try to do one final mod to my car before this weekend. If I can get it done, and my boss lets me off sunday night. I will drive up and spend the day up there. its gonna be a lonely drive.
anything special to cross the border? Just my Drivers License right?
For you, it's $60.00 and a note from your mother.
But, your worry is not getting into Canada, it's getting back into the U.S.. We're the ones with the more strict rules. I'd recommend a Driver's License and a passport, if you have one, or a voter's card if you have one.

How about a license? lol thats all i got, not sure where my voters card is. But i have two idss. My sisters goes up there like once a month for 2-3 days. Not sure what she uses. i know she doens't have a passport.
It's a passport or photo ID (licence) and proof of citizenship (birth certificate, etc.) that's needed. Just get a passport while there's no need to...yet. I'm sure that will change.
It won't be so lonely if more people came no?
My car is real dirty, and I have a midterm on Monday.
I might show up for a bit, langara parking lot.

Free dude, I work there
How much is detailing at Volvo? If its not to much, I would love to tag along.
Anyways... someone confirm with me where and when we are all meeting.
Thanks!
Hi phlop, Basically I was going to go to Volvo for a wash and shammy dry wheel shine, interior vaccuum etc. Because it has rain the past few days and the car is sooo dirty. I work there, so I can use their equipment. They open at 11am on Sunday so I will be there around that time. Im sure you can come by with auiotour and we can wash up our cars real nice. Handwash with mitt, powerwasher for rims, tire shine, vaccuum, interior armourall, etc etc.
Oh btw, Auiotour are you bringing your SE or SVT?, you have two cars right?
So far this is whats happening,
11:00am Volvo of Richmond - 13171 Smallwood Pl. Richmond BC
12:00pm Langara College (pre-meet) (check the map pics above)
1:00-3:00pm Spanish Banks Revscene meet. (Large group of cars cruising afterwards).
Sounds wicked! I will definatly be there. Only thing, no rims yet. They are getting shipped from the stats to a place in maple Ridge... I hope they get here tomorrow or Saturday... dont want to look like a good with stock shoes on! hahah
Either way! I am porbably going to detail my engine tomorrow, and then can stop by in the AM to give my baby a wash! I am just finishing on a new stereo install.. so hopefully it all goes well, and I can get some carpet over the ugly MDF!
Anyways, excited to meet you all. Perhaps you could PM me your phone number (cell phone?) incase I cant find on on Sunday morning!
Cheers, and thanks for the times!

Hey guys, I talked to a guy on Revscene who owns a FSVT (toddzilla) and he said he'd like to Join you at the pre-meet and park with us. I'll let him know the final details.
As for reserving spots... Quote:
sorry, no reservations
just park like a honger and 2 spots, when ur friend shows up, move on over to give him one of ur spots.
So if you guys could do that for me and I'm hoping ,my friend, who has a 89 dodge lancer shelby (drool=turbo=drool )
We'll be pushing it for time
My car needs a serious washing. I can't wait. I am gonna leave plenty early. Can't forget to print up the directions. What is the address to the place we are meeting at?
