^Sweet...we already got one from the east coast!

P.S. 65 PAGES!!!

Maybe it'd get stickied if we started rating the thread. I gave it 5 stars!

[mr.asian.m2]

only $100?? i think around $200 is better. but, gas is cheaper. so, maybe under $200. gas and food.

i might have to rent a 18 wheeler to trailer the main mr2 here to there. are we the first one to plan a mr2 meet this big for the south?

[Mark_Dorman]

^I think so. If this turns out like we all want it too...it'll be epic!

Also rated! and wooo! This is getting exciting! I wonder how many will show up!

Dennis(Alaines brother) was trying to get a CA meet going on if I remember.

[Mark_Dorman]

I say 50+

Mark, lets try to get together soon, with everyone who wants to help plan this out, to hammer out the details. That way you can come by and pick up your parts. Lets say early Jan. 09. Sooner we get a thread up we can get more people in.

That didn't happen. Too much complications with everyone. It was a good thought though. Would have been great to see most of Cali owners meet in one place. Good luck with that you are guys are trying to do.

On the other board. Bill Strong orangizes NA200(9) and that's a national event. Pretty much an all around U.S. meet. I'll eventually go to one, one of these years if it's still around by that time.

I was at the NorCal meet. And that is epic. If you guys can come close to that. I'd be surprise. Remember NorCal was mostly Cali owners from NorCal. I believe there were three MR2's from Socal that made it. My brother and two others that I know. I drove too but not my car.




Good luck

^ well to tell you the truth, it wasn't THAT big. We had a random meet here in the summer with 48ish mr2s. It shouldn't be too hard to have something with 70+ something that is organized and something that people are looking forward to like the Norcal meet. nice pics BTW

[Mark_Dorman]

Yay for 70+

I would have to disagree with you "it wasn't THAT big" There was more than 50+ MR2's there. There were are cars that showed up as well. That meet was epic, just like there previous one.

Like I said good luck with the planning and getting everything together. If you guys can do something like the road racing and track racing with such an event like what my brother puts together on MR2oc or what Bill Strong does. Than I'll be there with my two one hundred percent.

[mr.asian.m2]

plan is still in the work right now. so, we see what we can come up with. right mark? the main thing we need to do is... just enjoy. no matter how many show up. less or alot. if it's less. i still get to enjoy my time with my new friends from socal group.

and if it's alot. then, we can do a yearly thing.

[mr.asian.m2]

Are you talking about the interior panel that goes on the inside? Kinda like the t-top shades? I don't have one but I could probably find you one
