Default Weekly Jax Meet Sonic

Met a bunch of cool people at the super meet. It seems like a lot of us are interested in a regular meet in Jax. I am good any days except Wed and Sun.
Shay- Are you able to drive the S around Jax yet?

The general consensus is that Saturdays are good even for some of the guys to our south (willie gee). I will be there on Saturday.

Sonic near Regency Mall http://www.mapquest.com/maps/map.adp?latlo...9%20Restaurants
Saturday
6:00 p.m.

I am good for any day as long as we make it a regular thing. I am pretty much free to change my work schedule as needed. I met a bunch of cool people and had a great time at the big meet. I know ours won't be that extensive, but good people = good time. Let make it happen.

Physically cleared to drive the S last week per the doctor but something is up with my passenger rear wheel. Hoping it's just a brake pad but doubt it after Bryan (Lbsypher) inspected about 10 days ago. I get cleared and the S is down.

In any event I plan to put it in the shop in the next couple of weeks depending on Stage 6. I need to get whatever that problem is fixed plus I'm going to have them fully inspect the car for track worthiness and do the banjo bolt upgrade since I have an "old" S that has the 2-holed bolts vs. the 4.

In regards to meets - Back in 2002 we started a little group called "First Coast S2k" and we would meet the first Friday of each month at the Hooters near Regency. We started with 3 (Lbsypher, Jay Powell, and myself). Jay has long since sold his S and moved but 2 of the "Founding 3" are still kicking around.

Anyway, our meets grew from 3 to 20 a couple of times and we changed venues down to CaddyShack at World Golf Village to accommodate. We also moved to a Saturday of course and we frequently pulled in cars from St. Augustine, G-ville, Tallahassee, Orlando, Daytona, Melbourne, Tampa, etc. It got big but I also started having kids (ages 3 and 4 now) so my personal time is spent more with those guys vs. the car guys. I still do more car stuff than a lot of guys in my position but nothing like I used to do when I first got the car.

My 2 cents is pick a centrally located spot and meet there at the same time every week/month. Post pics, etc. in this forum. You will get a following without a doubt as proven above. I will make some meets here and there I promise but after the S is back up to speed. You will also find that after you become a regular somewhere and the crowd grows they'll start doing things like marking off parking spots for you, discounts on food, etc.

I would most likey never make it out there but I support the idea fully. If it is a regular thing on a friday or Sat I would be willing to come out on a day I had off.

Sonic at regency sounds good to me but saturday would be better for me because then my gf can go. She is still giving me grief about her missing the super meet.

I agree that Saturday or Sunday would be better...
