Official Mid-Atlantic Summer 2009 Meet

[whooppee777]

First things first.

Poll what month works best for your schedule

Then add suggestions for the meeting spot.

Just a few ideas to get things rolling

Point Look Out - if you dont mind driving to one of the most southern spots in MD. its a campground with a small beach, plenty of parking, bbq grills, EXCELLENT PHOTO SPOT!

National Harbor - Haven't really been there since before they've finished it, if it's even completely finished. plenty of parking, plenty of places to get food, and they have that sweet ass sculpture of the awakening.

Tysons Corner - It's Tysons Corner, if you live in MD or VA you know what Tysons Corner is.

White Flint Mall - Plenty of parking and they have dave and busters.

I personally think it would be cool to have a bbq at a park somewhere.

[BrazdonW]

i like the idea of Point Look Out

[whooppee777]

so do i. but its out there. it would take us like 45 minutes to get there just from waldorf. but it would indeed be a blast

[Cutie Pie #2]

Like the idea of a meet, but I don't have alot of days free during the summer months. June I have no days, July I have these dates opened for now 1-11, and then the very last weekend in July, that's it for me, forget about august for me.

Location doesn't matter too much to me.

make sure u post ur vote that july is the best month for you in the poll

the poll is GOD

[tuckevalastin]

I have no idea what my summer schedule is going to be, so all I can say is that I'd like to make it to this meet. Point Lookout would be a hike though

[SIPNGAS]

It would be cool if you guys could do yours the same weekend as Import Alliance in Nashville....

Wouldn't it be neat of all those YW members who can't make it there organize Yaris meets in their area the same day?

[TheUnGroomed]

I voted July to help out Cutie Pie. But, all summer is good for me.

Point Lookout sounds cool.
There is also Sandy Point State Park, Greenbelt National Park, Patapsco Valley State Park, and Gun Powder Falls State Park.

[whooppee777]

sandy point sounds like an ideal location seeing as it pretty much dead center in the middle of MD, wouldnt be too much of a hike for too many people. I'll research you other suggestions too though. but sandy point seem s pretty damn good

[tuckevalastin]

+1 for Sandy Point

[KCALB SIRAY]

Great Falls: Maryland side or Virginia is good. BBQ sites, the falls etc.
Gettysburg: Battlefields, BBQ's all over the place, plenty of great Photo Op's

[hatchbackkid82]

I'm down for a BBQ or even Dave and Buster's just gotta make sure you guys have rides home:drinking:. I've known the bartender there for a few years now so he always hooks it up. I remember one time he didn't charge me anything and i insisted so i can leave him a tip. So he took my CC and charged me .10 on my credit card:biggrin: I left him like a $10 tip:thumbsup:

[regal]

+1 for Sandy Point

[whooppee777]

I'm +1 Sandy Point

[BrazdonW]

is it to late to jump on the band wagon?
i wouldn't mind sandy point either :)

[regal]

I vote may that way we have all summer to mod/uppgrades we what we see at the meet

[staticorex]

Whatever you guys decide on I'm sure I can make it. :)

[whooppee777]

will u be attending with your supercharged yaris or the gto?

[staticorex]

Oh come on. How could I show up to a Yaris meet with a GTO? :p

[whooppee777]

exactly. so i guess u got a new belt

[staticorex]

Yeah. the problem is if I start shifting it manually. It's an auto and I guess putting it in underdrive puts too much strain on and it starts to squeal. btw you ever dyno yours?

[regal]

Any date or location set yet? I'm there regardless.

[underbone10]

sandy point is the good spot.

[whooppee777]

I've decided to make this easy.

We'll have a meet the third week in June, July, and August. To make it easy for everyone.

The meet in June will definitely be Sandy Point, the following months we will leave up in the air depending on how the first meet goes. And will be a BBQ so it would be greatly appreciated if everyone volunteered some sort of food/beverages to bring

[regal]

Saturdays are better than Sundays for me

[whooppee777]

Boo. Bring him with. :p

Still on for Sunday the 28th at Sandy Point State Park.... I didn't know where it was at first and I was dreading going over the Bay Bridge in the Yaris since this will be the first time on the highway with the car...but now I know.

Does anyone know approx. where in the park? I've never been there.

See ya there,

Thanks,
Mike

[whooppee777]

[BrazdonW]

i second that

i third that... and raise you the fact that i can take a picture of you 2 buy lots of yaris's aka: gf/wife/babys mama cant be mad (btw i heard it said yaris's on the radio so it's clear now)

[KCALB SIRAY]

lol, I saw it on the TV that way so you are right on saying that.

sorry guys, he's 4 and will be good for about a half hour at the most, but!!!!, he has 2 oil changes under his belt and already changed brakes on two of my cars with a little help from me with the bolts......I could have him do your cars next time, lol.

[BrazdonW]

Thanks whooppee! We should be okay getting there. The last time I was on the Bay Bridge was in a Miata with the top up and I made the mistake of rolling down the window...crosswinds where pretty bad. The top acted like a parachute and made my little car change lanes on its own (okay not a full lane but it sucked in any case)

See ya there

1. whooppee777 bringing charcoal and hamburgers
2. brazdonw - Chicken and bbq sauce
3. Havoc - bringing amateur porn actress (?so does that mean we r eating her?)

[whooppee777]

i just noticed on the parks web site that there is an admission fee

$5.00 per person Maryland residents
$6.00 per person non-Maryland residents

[TheUnGroomed]

Something just came up and I won't be able to make it. I'll try to make it on one of the other dates.

[Havoc]

Aww man, my wife might be coming. If so, don't mention the amateur porn actress!! :laugh:

I'll bring spam and low sodium saltine crackers. No, I'll bring paper plates, plastic ware, and, and... chips? Maybe some chicken salad and bread. I might be able to score some crabs if you guys want to get messy.

I know it's late and I forgot..

EDIT: Oh and a gift for Dah Whoopster for organizing and coordinating efforts... You like fireworks?

[whooppee777]

tight all sounds good.

rolling out now.

see you all there

[SnoDrft]

Hi Guys,

Still up in Philly with family, had a bit of an family emergency and came up last night... Even if I leave now I don't see me getting there until 4:00ish... I'll keep an eye out for the next meet.

[BrazdonW]

I'm worried about you two......

[BrazdonW]

Bahahahaha

[Attere]

We should have a meet in Blue Ridge, though.

To be honest I just wanna see a trail of Yaris(...s..?) going through the mountain roads... Or even the whole... Tail of the Dragon bit..

[whooppee777]

http://www.break.com/index/bikers_get_a_bad_rap.html

[Attere]

Then sell me them tires!

[underbone10]

THANKS FOR THE FOOD, NICE MEETING YOU ALL! TILL NEXT MEET..

[Jerkratt]

sorry couldnt make it hopefully next time

[Havoc]

Next time someone has to bring charcoal lighter fluid, or at least Brazdon should learn the difference between match light charcoal and regular!! lol

It was fun meeting all of you. Yes, definitely all good people. I'll cook next time if you can find someone older than me to come. :rolleyes:

[Attere]

Either that or underbone will have to show up earlier to ninja someone else's lighter fluid in time. >=o

[KCALB SIRAY]

when this thead was started, I mentioned Skyline Drive. It's a perfect route and great during the fall, so that might be something we can all do during that time.

[whooppee777]

sounds like a good plan.

[Darb]

Feck, I missed it. :(

[staticorex]

^ Cause you suck! :p

Go to the next ones. :)

[Darb]

I just might be available that weekend!

[whooppee777]

any ideas for a place to host the meet for this saturday?

[whooppee777]

unexpectedly i have to work tomorrow. i'll pass the torch on to anyone else that wants to set up a meet for tomorrow if any one is interested. or you could come with brazdon and i to new york sunday to the rockland toyota show.

[Attere]

For the meet in August, are there any plans on a location?

Going in to get my paid time off registered so I can actually make the meet.

[Darb]

+1, any plans on location?

[LuvMyYar]

I'm new here but I'm all for wherever you all are meeting...I'm in Alex VA and look forward to meeting other Yaris owners

[KCALB SIRAY]

woohoo, another member. Welcome

[Slummy]

The mid-atlantic area has a lot more traffic than I remember.
I'll need to keep my eye open for more meet info.

[whooppee777]

On August 15th my dad passed away.

In his honor i am taking his alcohol funny car to old dominion dragstrip in Manassas, VA to hopefully make one run in his car that he bought 3 weeks ago and did not get the chance to race.

I saw a blue lift back a week ago and waved at him in St. Mary's, I was in the black slammed Yaya, he appeared to have rims and was lowered!!! First other modded Yaya Ive seen down here!!!:thumbup:
