Huge Yaris Meet??

[Astroman]

I might be down depending on where it is and when. I'm about maxed out on driving on a 18hr trip though. Also I'm self employed, no vacation time, gotta save

[Manley81bass]

I love road trips. I'll drive anywhere in the US

Unfortunately for me, unless it's within about 4 hours from me, count me out.

Yes I have a job. Yes I can earn vacation time. However, I'm also trying to save up vacation time for the week and half around our wedding, and then the 2 weeks in October for the honeymoon. Not to mention I have to have the vacation time saved for any of those snow days we tend to get in the winter (working over an hour away from home tends to make winter traveling a little more difficult).

Congratulations......as a footnote....if you find yourself traveling in NC, I can really get you a deal on the window tint.

My car sees enough miles through my commute (over 30k in 1 year). We take his for trips.

Thanks for the offer though!

Oh my, now that is a commute!

I'd love to go to a huge yaris meet, but i have no idea what i will be up to to say what would be a good time for me. I'll keep an eye on this thread.

Welcome.

[JumpmanYaris]

Just need to see how much more ppl can commit to this

[JumpmanYaris]

I am also concerned about the ppl that has been selecting June, for you guys will this be a problem for you? is it something that you guys can switch what ever it is u r doing to a different month?

[yaris2010RS]

i personally picked june cuz i feel the weather is nicer in june. i dont care when it is, i will be going for sure (yaris meets here suck)

[Kioshi]

I can commit, with of course half of NorCal following through as well~

since teddy is a panzy ill bring him too :p lol

Come get me in BC I'll follow you there ;)

Also take in to account the number of "commitments" you will hear about and those that will actually show. It's a reality that 2/3 will not attend even if they commit verbally that they will. Though, usually not out of hate, it has to do with life changes and unexpected issues that come up in everyone’s life. This past July we had our biggest turnout for IA, but it could have been a lot bigger. Due to issues one way or the other, a third of the expected showed up. One thing you can't do is get disappointed at the turnout. The more you do to promote this and being proactive, the better this will be.

Those of us that have been to IA a few times now know what it is like and mainly go for the great time we have being together and a chance to catch up on the year and what’s happening in our lives. The show itself is a small part of the idea IMHO.

Every car club I have been a part of (Camaro, Mustang, Impala, NHRA, IASCA, NOVAJeep, etc) have been involved with traveling to different areas and states for shows and meets. Like I hinted to above, the meet is a small portion of the time associated with the time before, during and after if this is a two day event. Sponsors, travel arrangements, offers of discounts are something you really should be involved in. You said it sounds like a lot of work, but that’s the proactive portion of it. The squeaky wheel gets the oil.

The two of you (Danni) have a unique opportunity as you both own the one thing that brings us all together……queue the flag...
....our cars. Stay on it, be on it, and get on it and you will have a successful turnout. Good luck

[JBougie]

I'm in. I don't care where I have to drive to. Since I am pretty close to the center of the country (sorta/kinda) I will be there. I promise.

[frownonfun]

depends on how money is looking next year but subscribed to keep an eye on things none the less.

where isn't much of an issue for me. if i am gonna go on a road trip i'd prefer it be somewhere i haven't been yet. and that's nowhere close for me.

[yaris2010RS]

sounds good kevin, lol. (worst comes to worse meet me in alberta or something. lol) and ill bring ur fogs :p

as for a place for the meet, i think somewhere with cool mountainy roads and curves and such. seeing is that is where our cars rise above the rest. also maybe somewhere with a track?
