NC LATE SUMMER/EARLY FALL MEET! - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #90351 29 posts Started by easternpiro1
Hey guys Been kicking around the idea of having another NC/SC area meet, and need feedback! had a BLAST in Raleigh a few months ago and figured its Charlotte's turn! Keiri and I have been thinking late september/early october.

Give me dates you guys would be available. IMO October 10 would be perfect

I know im new here but i think an NC/SC meet would be an excellent idea, i live just south of columbia, SC and would be willing to make the drive to hang out and shoot the **** with some other celica owners!
It would be nice to pull some VA/SC/NC members together in Charlotte!

We're still coming up with things to do but on the short list are a cruise on HWY218 (or 205) - both are decently curvy roads that connect to 74, maybe a trek up to the mountains, or some automotive events (drift, drag, dyno day, etc.) in the area before going for a photo shoot.

If anyone has ideas or suggestions, please feel free to post!

Has no more Celicas
The photo shoot idea sounds like a blast, i'll make sure to clean and polish the ride up before hand wink.gif but im down for what ever goes on, i think it would be cool to get together regardless, even if its just grabbing a bite to eat and riding around the country side!
glad to see the enthusiasm! lets shoot for october 10th In charlotte there are so many motorsports events like brian said but its hard to tell when they will be sometimes until theyre a few weeks away. Lets get a attendance list going!

I'll take the day off and go seeing as I haven't actually been to a full one in a longgg while. Haha.
Guys...why don't we all meet up on October 6th???? Phantasm is having a drift and drag event at Rockingham!!!!!!!!!!
That's an option; we Charlotte people could drive to the Rock easily but I don't know about the mountain/SC guys wanting to make that trek on a Sunday.

Has no more Celicas
that is a pretty good option, shall we take votes? Im all for it if that is the consensus. on the down side, there is nothing to actually do in rockingham. plus having to pay probably 15 to get in

It's a great place to get some 6gc exposure. Remember, we are the lost sports car of the 90's. Need to represent against all those ridiculous civics!
rockingham isnt that bad of a drive, i can take hwy 1 all the way from columbia and get there, so i'm down if thats the new plan smile.gif
I think having a bunch of Celica's out there would level the playing field a little bit.
im down for whatever, just dont want to be stuck in traffic for hours. I went to a car show last year and we just sat in traffic for hours spent like and hour there, then hours in traffic back lol it was horrible thats why I like the small meets too. and driving in a caravan biggrin.gif seeing 10 bad ass celicas driving around biggrin.gif

so the consensus is rockingham!
