I was thinking maybe the
25 of august which is a saturday!
Maybe we should do it a little different from the last meet!
maybe we should meet in a more secluded place.
There is a parking lot in route 52 east which is literary 10 feet from the water of the the ohio river and 5 min from downtown.
There is a small park, so maybe we should have the meet there
get some food, play some corn hole, etc..
make it a whole day thing and then go for a race.. I mean a cruise!


here is a few pics of the last meet for those who might be interested and its your FIRST TIME

Looks like a good place to meet! We just need to get alot more people to show up this time! I am down for an all day thing. Cornhole, ladder golf and grilling out sounds good to me!

We should def take a long cruise and go through downtown ciny through the hot spots!

We will actually be setting up local forums in our website so you Cincy boys can have a place to chat thats a bit more local.

Haha, your a funny guy Frank! Its all good! I want to go to the meets, but they are always scheduled at wrong times for me. For example. I cant go to the meet on Aug 11th because I will be at a family party up in cleveland for my gmas 80th bday party.

But we def need to set up a date for a meet because it will be a nice end of the summer meet before college football starts!!

As far as a grill out and Secluded place, I'd be willing to have some people back to my place. Plenty of room to fit a few cars, nice level spots for both ladder golf and corn hole, and in inground pool if it's damn hot out. roughly 10 minutes from downtown Cincy.

The only thing about a cruise through downtwon cincy is that it would be next to impossible to keep together with all the stop and go traffic. Traffic is always a bitch in the city on the weekends too.

I'm thinkin something on the outskirts of town would be a better option for cruising if you want to do some driving rather then showing off.

There are a few nice parks over looking the skiline that would make great meeting spots as well. good op for some pics.

If the 25th is the confrimed date, it's a no go for me, we are having a anneversary party for my fiance's parents, Sunday evening would be good for me.

Im in for saturday or sunday. A nice scenic cruise on some back road would be nice but then turning heads would be too. Cornhole and ladder golf sounds fun. I have a cornhole set and might getting another soon. So what ever you guys decide is fine with me.

I agree with ROBEL82. I would love to take a nice long twisty cruise but also show off our cars alittle.

I cant meet next weekend the 11th and 12th because I will be in cleveland but anyother weekends 18th & 19th and the 25th & 26th work great for me!

I think we should plan on meeting on or after the 25
plus I am having my turbo installed at the rx7store in columbus and they think it might be ready by the 20.

we should have a vote:

we have the weekend of
1) august 25th and 26th
2) September 1st and 2nd
3) Sep 8th and 9th
4) Sep 15th and 16th
5) Sep 22 and 23
6) Sep 29th and 30th

what do you think?

Whenever you get the turbo on, I would love to take a ride in your 8 to see the power difference. Are they putting you on a dyno before and after the install?

I'd be willing to lead on a 80 mile loop through SE indiana if your willing to drive the extra distance.

then have people back to my place for a grill out and games pool pool side
lookin at the weather, it might not be a bad ifea to keep it pool side.

Alright, Spetember 21st is a no go for me as well, i've got a wedding to attend. But i don't think we were shooting for a friday either. I might be able to convince my boss to let me have that day off and i cold use some personal time for it.

If i do host people back to my place for the 22nd, I'll be sure to have some home brew preped for it.
