unfortunately most of our regular attendees are from nova and a few others from md. va beach is about a 3 and a half to 4 hour drive from nova so I doubt everyone weill wanna do that. sorry man.

This I understand completely. That was one problem I ran into when hosting my meets. Finding a mid way point for everyone.but someone is bound to complain about the distance. Lol. I always planned if I had 60 people say they're gonna show, out of that 60 about 30-40 would actually make it.

But if its somewhere in VA I'm sure I could try and make it. My car club consist of nothing but accords. So it'll be fun to have different Gen accords show up in one place. NOVA is at LEAST a 2-3hr drive for us down here in NC but we got people who drive to Florida every year and MD and VA for my meets. So distance isn't really a problem. Lol. We find one of the best parts of a meet is the ride there and back. Haha.

lol @ 60 people. We definitely don't get even remotely close to that big up here. We keep it small... not so much that we want it small. but because we have issues finding convenient dates for that many people.which is odd because they are always on sundays.

I mean, I don't care if we just show up and grill. But most parks the grills are at the shelters, which you gotta rent to use.... Legally. I think its bull**** to have to pay and I'm down to be rebelious and use a grill/shelter anyways. Seneca park patrol is on their game though. We got escorted out at dusk on hole 20 while discin. So if the disc gold course is that well surveiled I bet the shelters are too.

Look around Donald. The location, If you name it, We will come..... Eventually

haha eventually is the key word here :lawl:

ya i think the most we've had at a meet was the skyline cruise last year. most our meets are the same like ten people who all no each other. and with the exception of a few we're all way too lazy to drive more then an hour or so for a meet.

skyline cruise was a good turnout... too bad all those damn tourists ruined any cruising over 15 mph from happening. We got the NoVa hondasociety group joining us a few at a time. their chill. They like to eat, drink beer, check out women, bull****, and not act like dumbasses at meets. Too bad everyone else on HS sucks.

Lol. Yeah. I host big meets. Lol. The last mid Atlantic meet I had we had 80 cars show up. Haha. The meet for import vs domestics a few years ago there was over 100 at Springfield Mall. But having small meets with like 10-20 people is better. Having that mass amount of people, you can't trust everyone to act right.

I'm sure me and my crew will be up for meeting with yall.

yeah i don't like big meets at all. even more than 20-25 cars is starting to push it. loose too many people on cruises. can't coordinate pics easily and there's ALWAYS "that guy" there.
