ideas.....ideas......ideas......lemme get back to u, im fresh out for tonight, lol.
What red tape? Who would stop us? lol
im sayin like if we need permissions to be in an area, getting funds together, getting group rates and admissions to hotels/motels etc.... theres a lot to plan for a large meet.
*bump*
We need to decide on some places that would be easily accessible and then take a poll. I think that will be the easiest way to decide on the place.
Just to put in my opinion, I have an uncle in Vegas who used to build cars for Shelby Racing and he might still have some connections at local tracks that we could use. Just a thought. I know its far for the people coming from the east but if we could score a free track for the weekend or something like that , it might be worth while.
thats awesome! let us know- it would be nice to have some good stuff planned.Quote:

but i wont give up hope yet! [-o<
well i say start with listing some places, i know of 2 possibilities so far, u mentioned lake tahoe, i was thinkin denver, now we need others to chime in and say some places and then when we have maybe 4 or 5 places make a poll and we will go from there. sound good?
definately. yeah i was kinda thinking tahoe might not have been the best idea- so im gonna have to come up with a new one.Quote:

Besides, I think it's a little unfair that the people who asked for the Cali meet live NEAR Tahoe, so it's like going down the street for them, and going across the country for everyone else.
You have 3-4 ppl in AZ just waiting for something like this, I'm sure you could help us out a bit.
The only place that would be easier for everyone would be LA, but the traffic...
^ lol im tryin to move everything inland lol, oh well whereever its decided...
I don't know if I've posted here, but I'm in phx, Az and I'd be up for a meet. I won't drive far though unless we did something like a track day, car show, or something really intresting/fun. Or I could do the meet and there happens to be a track even that weekend near by

New Mexico doesn't sound half bad! There is also El Paso, Texas right?!
I think it is going to be an interesting drive for all of you who go, because of the distance between everyone who wants to go, but it would be a very good idea to make the meet worth the two-three day trips and make it so that it is closer for everyone. We could do the 2 day overnight thing...it could be themed: "Aveo Weekend 2008! Bring our Aveo...and Stay-O!" On second thought...thats kinda corny...
Well, the good thing about going is that now...I CAN BUY A MONKEY FOR ONLY 20 BUCKS!!!! Just kidding...thats Afghanistan... 8)
wow- ok so i have to figure this out then. i'm trying to set this up for a weekend when i can get my brother to take my son, so i will pretty much have friday evening to drive there and will need to be back by sunday evening. that's the only reason i suggested somewhere like tahoe for the west coast meet.
im gonna grab a map---
i want this to be fun for all of us, and worth the drive too.
i know someone mentioned LA. and that doesnt seem like a bad idea cus is like middle for people in the north and the south...
idk what u guys think

Can I throw in that I would suggest Vegas around the same time as Hot Import Nights?? And we all enter as a club entry?
Or same weekend as SEMA and all park together so the aftermarket industry sees us out in force??
im down for vegas HIN! the chicago HIN this summer was off the chains! i cant imagine a vegas one.... :P
that would be a good idea. just make sure all of your cars are in GREAT shape in order to get attention.... no ghetto mods.Quote:

guess im out :( damn! my car is like ghetto-fabulous!
ok so what's everyone think of vegas then?? i'm gonna check and see what we can do about the event- when where etc. etc.
ok so i just sent emails to a few people in the HIN event group to see what kind of info i can get. I told them i'm from an actual car CLUB- so if we go as a CLUB, we all need stickers. lets see what they have to say........
not out. :D no one is out just cause of some ghetto fab-ness!Quote:

I'll try to be in all one color paint by then at least (g0ast..lol).
If I can convince the old woman to let me get an Aveo hatch for the biz, then I am down if it's the same weekend as SEMA... I'll have 2 tix for dealer access that I can take people in with if desired, and we will hopefully have both (mine and Ryan's) completed Aveo's there if it works out to be that weekend...
After Christmas I am buying a vinyl cutter for the business ($130 for 100 vinyls is crap for me) so I would be willing to sell AveoClub and Aftermarket Aveo vinyls for cost (or free if you buy something!)...
Keep us updated... Maybe I'll have my old lady drive the Aveo and I'll drive the Stage 3 Roush in... heh...
if you guys are really interested check out cobaltss.net and check out the california section...they are planning a huge west coast meet in June at lake tahoe.
interesting....wonder if they would be willin to collaborate with us???????Quote:

Well, by an even more bizarre twist of fate I am not going to deploy, so I am back in the group if you all will have me! :)

well im sorry for that but ive been on the site for over a year with my aveo and only a small select few decide to be pricks and 99% of those pricks end up getting perm. banned.Quote:

It will have cobalts, cavaliers, g5's, ions, sky redlines, possibly some solstices, i would make it down but i am now expecting a baby right around that time. and the cobalts will range from all the different models....ls, ls, ss, ss/sc....coupe...sedan...its really more of a large GM west coast meet.
well if they are cool with it- then that would be fun.
Oh they are for sure cool with it.Quote:
