Default (DFW) SPRING BREAK MEET SUNDAY MARCH 22nd

Hey everybody,

Judging interest in the possibility of having a meet the ladder end of spring break. I know myself as well as some other members of the forums lurk while were off at school (Lubbock), but i'd like to get something together if at all possible. What does everyone think about the date, location, and all the other details. Essentially I'm just proposing the idea, if someone wants to take over, be my guest. I'd just like to get everyone together and maybe have a meet and some "spirited" driving. Cant believe i missed the cannon ball.

There is some informal chatter about cruising out to Mineral wells to watch/participate in the drifting that day.

Do it............ill be leaving the DFW area at about 8:15am to make it out to Mineral Wells and prep and be ready. So anytime after that, you guys wanna meet and come out.

The Drifting starts at about 9:30 and ends around 3pm so keep that in mind, it takes a little over an hour to get out there.

That sounds good guys, Where is a central meeting place for everyone too meet and head out from? Somewhere right in the middle, we could meet in Grapevine, and then drive out from there. Im open for suggestions.

Starting the list of Interest.

We should probably meet wherever is easiest for Jason, if we are going to follow him. I am sure that trailer isn't the easiest thing to manuver. (for some reason I feel there is at least one mispelled word in this post)

yup!!!


sup guys, yeah, i dont live in grapevine anymore...have a house near 360 and HWY 20, Grand Prairie, TX.

I would love to meet up somewhere, but I also have my brother in law that will be towing his S14 240sx so its not ideal for us to be driving around (with trailers) to meet up.

Best if you guys can meet closer to me, or I can call whomever is running the show at the meet location....let them know when I'm leaving and so you guys can leave at the same time and maybe we can meet here:

http://maps.google.com/maps?q=FT+wor...11398963730624

We can get gas at chevron and then some waffles to go...

whoever is closer to me, is welcome to meet at my house..
-J

Meeting along I-30 like that would be good for me, as that is my westbound road I take.

that place would work for me as well....if we can get an actual meet time to be there, or very close ballpark, that would be great.

Jason, what time would you be meeting us in fortworth if we were to meet there? Cause if we do it too early its going to turn away a lot of people. Whats the ideal time for you?

I am pretty sure, I read that it is free to spectate. I am not afraid of getting up early, I have at least an hour drive just to get to the meet up spot. Remember, people can come anytime they want, they will just miss the cruise.
