You better make it Dammit! Lol!

Cool that was a goal of mine was to make it a lil easier to connect with some members who were either farther north or south of the area we normally meet. Since we're meeting further north this time obviously it'll make it easier for the Central CA guys. Maybe next time we can do it further South like proposed for Murrietta to get some SD guys to come.

[8g831]

[VIPtint]

sorry wont be able to make it, car isnt insured.

[IVORY_G]

How's the weather down there? Last I heard, the Grapevine was closed.
Clear and a lil wind. It was raining off & on for a couple weeks. I'll check CalTrans...


sorry wont be able to make it, car isnt insured.
You know you dont have to bring your car to be there if you cant

[racesnos]

i might bring a guy and his G along that i know lives by me. also, Will, should i meet you at your place before we head out?

[racesnos]

[racesnos]

Yeah dats cool

one more thing, what is the exact address to this place?
Click the web link for the info...

Whats up guys? We had at least 6 ppl vote for Grapevine and we barely have any definites now. If theres any questions/concerns pls express them now. If this date doesnt work for the majority of us then of course we'll have to change it. But if there's only two- three then we have to keep it for the majority that can go... So speak up now. Also I checked with CalTrans and as of now the 5 FWY in Central Cali i.e. Grapevine is open for business.

[racesnos]

i looked it up online last night and saw where i was and the directions you take.

[kalvinsaid]

thats not bad u should be the guy whos gonna take pics...!!! and videos...!!

[hsinya]

i'll decide by tonight if i'm going. i would rather not make a 3 day roadtrip... theres stuff other stuff i dont want to miss. so... it would just be 4 people?

racesnos u should give me 1 of your jobs. why r u hoarding all the jobs...

[NelsonC]

if its only gonna be 4 i think we should reschedule, or change the location to something in LA,

[jimmy_o2]

im down

[hsinya]

i'll be able to go sunday so ad me to the definites. i agree with nelson if its just gonna be a few of us we should go somewhere closer. specially if theres a chance of rain

[sponcar]

if its only gonna be 4 i think we should reschedule, or change the location to something in la,

i agree...!!!

[IVORY_G]

Yeah it looks as if now theres a chance of Snow and or Rain on Sunday in Grapevine, so this doesnt look good for the Grapevine meet. Im down for a local meet. Quick shoot out some ideas, Im up for anything. You guys wanna try to actually go to K1 racing this time? Dave & Busters? Are we looking at Orange County or Inland Empire? Lets get this decided by tomorrow...

[sponcar]

so come on guys from LA lets shoot some ideas close to LA...!!! cuz i dont wanna go too far as inland empire...!!!

[06galant06]

hey do you guys know of any galant teams in orlando, florida? if not we should start 1!

[sponcar]

hey do you guys know of any galant teams in orlando, florida? if not we should start 1!

orlando florida?!?!?! well i dont know if they are into a tem racing or just for show if is that wat u tried to said but theres alot of galants in florida...!!! specialy miami...!!! that are members from TGC.net lol..

[IVORY_G]

hey do you guys know of any galant teams in orlando, florida? if not we should start 1!

This is the "Southern California" thread, think ya clicked the wrong thread...

[racesnos]

OKAY HERE IS WHAT I PROPOSE! we should hit up a local Dave and Busters, have some drinks and whatnot. I want to keep it local now that its going to rain. A long drive like that in the rain isn't a good idea

[sponcar]

where is dave and buster located?!?!?!

[NelsonC]

we can meet here at Santa Anita, then cruise for some mt pic at the foothills then finish it off with some food and stuff

400 S Baldwin Avenue Suite 930-U Arcadia , CA 91007 626-802-6115

Anyone down for a GMR run in Azuza?

Anyone down for a GMR run in Azuza?

Im liking that idea, & a change of scenery. Is that address ur house or is that a business, or is that Santa Anita Mall? And whats a GMR run?

[hsinya]

glendora mountain road. i dont particularly like gmr. specially on the weekends. its always overrun with ricer kiddies trying to show off and what not.

i was going to suggest a drive on angeles crest and stopping at newcomb's ranch for some food.... not as much ricers, but i dunno i haven't been there in a year...

dunno how the rain is going to affect that though.

[racesnos]

YES I AM DOWN FOR A GMR RUN!! YES TO GMR RUN!! i've done it many times already

[IVORY_G]

Rain + Mountains x Ricers = Accidents. Not a good look. What do you guys wanna do btw these two choices?

[glantnation]

I Think the 22 is the day of the DUB SHOW in LA....U guys should all meet up at the show....

[glantnation]

Just double checked...The dub show is this sunday in la.....i would be down to meet up there if anyone else wants to go to the show....its only 25buck to get in at the door and 20 if you buy online....

[hsinya]

how about some good food? anyone want to recommend a place to eat?

[IVORY_G]

Oh Yeah I forgot about the DUB Show, & If we go there then we can grub at the Infamous "King Taco"! They have some good Mexican food there! What you guys think?

[racesnos]

i have bad memories of King Taco... umm i'm down for w/e i guess. i just want to thoroughly enjoy my one Sunday off of work.

[racesnos]

Will why is your phone off you wienie?!?!

[sponcar]

Oh Yeah I forgot about the DUB Show, & If we go there then we can grub at the Infamous "King Taco"! They have some good Mexican food there! What you guys think?

its not a bad idea...!!! im down for it.
we can go to the car show and then get somewhere else and then we can take some pics...!!! actually will be nice take some pics at the carshow parking lot lol...!!!

[racesnos]

yeah it would be tight if we all rolled in together too.

[IVORY_G]

So DUB SHOW OR SANTA ANITA POST NOW!

[IVORY_G]

Okay so no posts...

I'm making executive decision to go to the DUB SHOW Sunday afternoon, bcz I really wanna go and no one's speakin up, so there it is. I'll post info on time and location for those that wanna go, bcz Im goin regardless now since this whole meet has now fallen to pieces with everyone being busy and or cant get the day off.

[IVORY_G]

The DUB Show is @ the LA Convention Center & starts at 12pm and goes until like 5 or 6pm. If ur gonne come, we'll meet at the entrance at 1PM. Tickets online are $20, at the door $25. I suggest buying online to avoid long lines. We'll grab some food afterwards and take some pix locally. Alright later.

lol.... thats sound good but just an idea....
I think that could be better to meet somewhere b4 and roll together to the carshow...!!! just an opinion...!!!

PS: if u guys know about a nice place for the pics at Santa Anita.... so lets shooting now cuz we can go there after spent some hours at the carshow...!!!
I want to see everybody whos going for sure to the meet comment this thread...!!!

[IVORY_G]

I was thinkin the same thing but dont know of somewhere in the area, where ppl wouldnt get lost or have to pay for parking, and would have enough room. If u know of a place near the convention center than post it.

[hsinya]

i'll meet up with u guys after the dub show. i'll give racesnos a call at around 4-5 since i only have his number.

[sponcar]

Just thinking loud..!! We can go to the "dodgers park" For nice pics mmm i can say that there is a good place if we want to take pics with the city as a background

[IVORY_G]

Ok cool.

Sounds like a good idea, we'll check it out.

Also if you're purchasing Tickets online:
Type in WEBVIP in the Coupon Code Section near the bottom of the page when selecting admission for 1 Adult. Gives you an additional $5 off, so instead of $25 @ the Door or $20 online you pay $15 online + $2 Convenience fee.

And for those of you who want to meet up after the show with us, PM me your number tonight and I'll update you with where we are and are going.

[NelsonC]

[hsinya]

[IVORY_G]

Racesnos and I are stuck in the parking lot @ the convention ctr, all the cars are not moving! WTF?!

[E_Emerson88]

LAME!!! i was hoping to catch the meet after the DUB show but nobody showed up besides me and hsinya.

[Sillyasianz]

Should have made this meet another day...tsk tsk.

[IVORY_G]

Sorry I couldnt make it to D&B but once me & my buddy got out of that freakin parking lot it was too late bcz my buddy had plans already so I had to take him back to his house on the other side of town. But man the DUB Show was off the hook! Lots of pretty girls, some sick rides, & a killer performance from Ice Cube! I got my moneys worth :D
Besides I posted the thread and date well ahead of time so ppl could take the day off, but didnt work out. Oh well whatever, theres always next time.

i know Ivory there were alot of sexy girls...!!! i was waiting for ivory outside of the convention center...!!! from 5:00 to 7:30pm and damn i didnt get bored at the first cuz there were alot of sexy girls walking tru or rolling in their cars by figueroa blv...!!! anyway we have to make it next time...!!! "Santa Anita mall" is a good option for the next one....
PS: Hey hsynja Sorry bro cuz there was not enough time to make it...!!!
u know i waisted alot of time sitting front to the convention center. U can try to figure out how the traffic was at that time it was horrible but now that i have ure phone number ima hit u up for the next meeting...!!!
or actually lets set up for next week...!!! pictures day...!!!

[hsinya]

yeah now that were wont be rain i can actually wash my car hahaha. we definately have to set another meet, one where people will actually show up!

[E_Emerson88]

Oh well whatever, theres always next time.

lets start planning the next one Will hahaha :smt028

[racesnos]

by parking in that structure, we really f-ed ourselves...

[IVORY_G]

yeah now that were wont be rain i can actually wash my car hahaha. we definately have to set another meet, one where people will actually show up!
Yes we do, it would want to rain the one day we plan a meet and not rain the rest of the week!

lets start planning the next one Will hahaha :smt028
"Will's" not planning anymore meets bcz I got too frustrated with the lack of input & interest in SoCal. I now see why Racesnos said he didnt want to plan anymore either.
Theres no reason why we cant get the participation that the mid-west & eastcoast chapters get. I posted an Interest thread in January so we'd have enough time to plan, & request days off, and was diplomatic about where to go and what to do so every1 would be satisfied; instead of trying to dictate everything. Guess theres too many "Hollywood" ppl out here, who think have better things to do. At any rate Im always down for a meet. Hopefully we can get a good meet b4 MOD '09, maybe in April or May.


by parking in that structure, we really f-ed ourselves...
Yeah we did! Never again!

[jimmy_o2]

i know how u feel i woulda gone but this move is killing me. few months ago i was on Rodeo Dr in Beverly Hills and the whole 3 blocks of rodeo were full of mustangs only if we could get down like that

[E_Emerson88]

come on people lets start planning a new one and try and get a good turnout this time!!!!

[racesnos]

i'm gonna wait til MOD... if it comes around...

[sponcar]

let's start a new one..!!! But if we decide to meet at 2 or 3 watever the time will be everybody have to show up at that time and let's try to 4get bout the option to join us later cuz it won't work like that. we already have an experience with the meeting on march 22 it was like ppl here and ppl there wack..!!!

[krazienluv10]

ill set the next one up, gonna be may 30th and its going to be in la fyi, probably echo park...

[krazienluv10]

ill set up the thread and plan a couple stuff for it the next couple days....look for the thread later on.

[sponcar]

if u got good plans to do at echo park ok then let's do it or at least nice place for photos..!!!

[E_Emerson88]

lets make it the 31st. im off sundays. unless people cant make it. post the thread up here when you started it

[racesnos]

i don't know cause i work way too much and i need to work as much as i do. i was thinking, sadly, between me and Ivory_G, our most successful meets have been at late night with just us two lol. we seem to just kick it then make a photoshoot out of it lol

[E_Emerson88]

i don't know cause i work way too much and i need to work as much as i do. i was thinking, sadly, between me and Ivory_G, our most successful meets have been at late night with just us two lol. we seem to just kick it then make a photoshoot out of it lol

that sounds good. if we can make a night meet it would be kool as long as we have more people coming

[racesnos]

we all should meet and go see Fast and Furious lol

[peanotation]

we all should meet and go see Fast and Furious lol

agreed.

[E_Emerson88]

agreed.

x2 that would be tight to show up with all the galants.

[racesnos]

honestly i'm down if others are too. we should go to Arclight Cinemas off Sunset in hollywood. Best theater ever!!

[E_Emerson88]

what day? so i can ask off

[IVORY_G]

Might be a nice theater but Sunset = trouble when your talkin about car meets. They give out tickets for cruisin and parking cost too much. They're are plenty more nice theaters we can go without the drama. Isnt there an AMC in Arcadia next to Dave and Busters?

[hsinya]

my buddies are thinking of seeing f&f at that theater. in the mall next to dave and busters. parking isn't that bad there

[sponcar]

a couple of moths ago i saw this 8G that i really like it at craiglist it was for sale and the owner was asking 4k. So today when i came out from skool i just saw it rolling in my city i will try to reach him and two more galants that i have seen here close to me asap for the next meeting.... if this guy is a tgc member please say down for the meeting...!!!

[IVORY_G]

That white car has to either have been a previous member's or is a current member of TGC or GF, they have the aero grill, mugen lip, 2nd Gen Tails, Yellow Fogs, & dropped with wheels, thats got TGC written all over it! Lol! Only thing its missing are some '02-03 Heads to finish it off!

[E_Emerson88]

Only thing its missing are some '02-03 Heads to finish it off!

[hsinya]
