Default A question regarding meets

Folks, I've always wanted to show up at a Mid-A meet but haven't had the opportunity to do so yet so I just had a few questions:

-what do you all do at a meet? Go for a collective drive together, stand around and discuss cars, eat, what happens?

-how many people usually show up?

-how long do you all stay out?

-and last but not least, do the cops ever give you trouble, i.e., trespassing, gathering without a permit, etc.?

I'm guessing you're new to the whole scene?

1. walk around, look at other people's rides, BS, etc.
2. 50+ people if not more
3. there's really no answer for this one, however long you want?
4. only if this was a honda meet

what he said ^ ... I would add that most of the meets in the Mid-A forum are about having fun ... You won't get looked down upon if your car is bone stock. One more thing ... be prepared to sprain you liver.

If you come to a Columbia meet, bring at least $100 for your own bar tab, and get ready to have a good time, at the expense of others, its brutal, but its all good, this is like a freaking fraternity-minus the Ben-Gay on the ***** initiation and the fee. Then Kirk gets drunk and does this, like he did Saturday night---->

There are types of 350Z meets that I prefer. Generally they focus on the car:


A cruise such as Skyline Drive, VA.


Racing. Any kind. Drag or autocross. An event like Englishtown gives you the option of autocross, drag racing or just checking out the other Zs.


ECZA sponsors some cool meets. Usually there are exhibits such as Dent King and a how to class by Mcguire's.
