Default Monthly Meet in DFW

Well It has time to get this started. After doing a crap load of reading the board it seems this would be better. This place is almost halfway between Arlington and Plano. I figured this would help on attendance. So the meet will always be the 2nd Sat. of each month. So that means April 11 will be our offical first monthly meet. I was thinking we can meet up at Hooters for the food. And after we get done eating we can take a drive to Mainevent for a lil lasertag, bowling, and for the kid at heart like me they have video games.

When: Saturday, April 11th @ 4PM

Where: Hooters of Grapevine


817-410-9464
1711 Crossroads
Grapevine Tx, 76051

What your bring:
Beer Money
Food Money
Running Vehicle
Your ***
Beer Money

There's a Hooters in Grapevine on 114 just west of Park Place Lexus. Then for those that will want to play games, there is a Main Event across 114 right behind what I think is Freeman Pontiac?

4:00pm time works well. Got my beer money ready

Thats kewl as well. I just thought the one in lewisville will be more in the middle. There is also a main event close to the hooters as well. Its the next exit over. That might be the one you are talking about. I thinks there about 10min apart

I saw a nice turn out of cars at the weekly Luigi's pizza meet in Frisco. Every Saturday at 11am.

I plan on going next weekend with the car and hand out some samples.

Please no offense.....only my opinion.....but that sounds more like a date to me....

I mean games/food all that is good and fun with people you actually know.

to me a real Monthly car meet should be consistent and should be.....well, just that....a car meet. nice cars in a parking lot.....food perhaps..sometimes.

games and all that, sure.....maybe later once we establish a DFW meet and we know eachother......just my 2 pesos

Cool

I'll throw this out there based on some very positive past experiences:
With our MINI Cooper club, we were all so into driving our cars that someone would map out a route on which to drive our cars. This let us test our handling/acceleration, enjoy some scenery, and enjoy some time with our cars when we had nothing else to think about. According to some bystanders at the time, it was also pretty impressive to suddenly be passed by 10-15 Coopers.

We got SO addicted to the group drives that almost all of us bought radios so we could better stay in touch and coordinate during the drives. It was on one stretch of those drives that I got my Cooper up to the highest speed I'd driven it (but that was a closed area - SAFETY FIRST ALWAYS!)

It's sounding like, since we're all nuts about the cars and there for the cars, you're wanting our activities centered around - THE CARS?

Oh definitely. I won't miss a chance to hang out with other Lexus lunatics.
Like you and I've said before - we don't need a reason to drive, but it's fun to have a reason.
