Default Northern Virginia Meets/clubs?

Hey guys...

I just picked up a new Z touring roadster..I was looking to meet some other local Z owners.

Do you guys ever just meet up on the weekend at a starbucks or baskin robbins? It would be pretty cool to get a big group of Zs together in a parking lot and hang out at one of those places...would offer an opportunity for some new Z owners to meet ...

thoughts?

+1 Tell us a little about yourself and your ride man. Many on here already know each other from meets, bbq's etc and Im sure you'll get a chance to meet most of guys and gals in the region soon enough.

PICS.

Welcome to the Mid-A guys! Plenty of meets are going to pop up once the weather starts to get warm, just stay tuned!

I am pretty sure this thread would be useful for you guys, https://my350z.com/forum/mid-atlantic/319813-the-official-mid-a-bio-thread.html Anyone know why this has been made a sticky yet?

thanks for the responses..Everyone on here seems pretty cool (so far )

Me? well..im 38, moved here three years ago from Florida to finish grad school, got a fellowship, then a job offer, so here I am.

I used to have a mercury marauder, and those guys love their cars too. They had a popular forum and met all of the time. It was alot of fun and I met tons of people through it. So, Im hoping for the same experience.

Im in Arlington, near the Pentagon.

I will try to post some pics this weekend.

Oh, btw, im getting a usa spec pa11 ipod adapter installed today, ill report on it later.

Can you guys tell me a little about all of you also? Age? Where do you live? What Z? etc..

Thanks!

Welcome to the Mid-A! Good times are had with this crew, lots of meets and get togethers throughout the year.

You live in Arlington? My gf used to live off of Washington Blvd. and Pershing, which is about 2 miles from the Pentagon. As for me, I'm 26, live in VA (Fairfax or Merrifield, depending on the day).

Just a friendly tip: the Mid A forum is good to go, but the main forums on this site can be a bit "much" if you don't have thick skin. I advise you to thoroughly search before you ask a question, or else you'll get eaten alive

"SEARCH" button is your friend

What's up with the Baskin Robbins as a meet spot lol
Hooter's sounds a bit more appropiate IMO

Also, when you mod your car, and you post pictures asking for feedback, know that you will get good and bad, no matter WHAT. It could be butt ugly and you'll have people love it, or it could be BEAUTIFUL and somebody will hate it. People will voice their opinions on it, so just beware.

Something like that happened yesterday, and it got out of hand. The OP is gone now. Mainly because he took offense to our criticism and started lashing back at us, thats a big no-no. He's gone now...

Wow, that dude got banned! Yeah he took everyones criticism too personally, eventually it looked like he started following you (Eric) around the forum insulting when he could!

OP: I posted a link on post# 7, its a Mid-A bio thread, alot of members have already posted! I wish this link would become a sticky!

oh, im pretty thick skinned, I find it kind of strange that people would get bent out of shape by what someone says on a car forum.

Ive just rolled my eyes after reading some of those posts

Oh, and to respond to the whats up with the baskin robbins meet...dont get me wrong..I love hooters (and the restaurant too )...im ALWAYS up for meeting there..

I rolled over at 0500, got up, got coffee, looked outside and saw nothing but ice. Turned on the news and saw Andrews having a 2 hr delay. I immediately texted my supervisor and asked for the day off (good day to start packing) and he said hell yeah, cuz he's not coming in either
