Jeff (defgeph) and I have been discussing a national meet for a few weeks and have decided to take the initiative to set one up. There have been a lot of good points made about potential meeting places which we have considered at length. This is NOT a thread to debate the location of this meet. That said, everyone is welcome and this meet should not discourage others from setting up other meets in places like Kansas or Colorado.
The details:
Meet will be May 5, 6 & 7. It will coincide with the exact same meet for the MR2 guys. We are piggy backing off their meet for one reason - more cool cars and people to hang out with.
Event will start in Charlottesville, Virginia, 10am.
Continue along the Blueridge Mountains, from Virginia into West Virginia heading for the Dragon.
Saturday will include driving the Dragon.
Sunday will include some of the most awesome roads in West Virginia, with huge drop-off and fast blind curves!
Here is a map of the Dragon:

Please post if you will attend. There may be other people like me that will not drive that far unless there is a good turnout. If thats the case, just say so in your post. I would like to see at least 50 cars there (mr2s and celicas) for me to make the trip. Honestly, I don't think thats going to be a problem.
