This thread is to both formally announce and plan the west coast meet. As of current the meet is set for August 12,13, and 14. The currrent location is Las Vegas. Both those items are still up for debate, but I am fairly certain that both will be finalized soon. The point of this thread is to basically get a feel for who will be attending, what events they would like to see, and in-city location for the actual meet. So with that said I would like to see three things at this meet: 1) A nice location for the meet itself 2) A drag strip event (at a local track!) 3) a lot of fellow DI.netters!

So what would you all like to see?

I was just throwing the dragstrip thing out as something that I would like to do. What other things does vegas have to offer besides booze and gambling? I am being serious, not an ass. What other things could we setup as events, besides the actual meet obiviously.

If they have built in BBQ'ers maybe everybody can pitch in a few bucks and everybody has a meal for the day or for a couple of days. Just an idea. Are there any Amusement parks that everybody could attend? In case anybody has children...Ok so I would like to go to one...So what!

Okay, so here is how I figure that the events should go. Friday should be a chill night since everybody will be just arriving, and some of us will have been driving for quite a while. So I figure that we could all meet up at the hotel, that we choose to stay in, and then decide how we would like to enjoy the nightlife. Then Saturday we should have the actual meet, show-n-shine if you will, either in the morning or the evening. Then on Saturday, whenever we aren't having the meet, we could head out to one or several amusement parks, I know I have always wanted to hit the one on top of the building! Then Sunday try to have something fun scheduled in the morning, and then I am sure most people will have to head out in the afternoon/evening. So we need the folowing things: Ideas for hotels, places to eat, location for meet, and two event type deals! I think that the amusement park is a great idea! What would a good Sunday morning activity be Vegas? And do you think that we should have the meet in the morning or the afternoon?

Sounds like fun, I should be there with my daughter as long as everything works out right. You won't catch my car on the drag strip though, lol. Unfortunately I have the 2.7 people are saying isn't all that great of a ride.

Things I would like to do...BBQ, games, Hang out deal. Go to an amusement park as well. I want to see some Intrepids race, so those that have the nice fixed up ones sounds like fun to watch. I can spare a couple bucks for the gas, ha ha or just the lunch.

I would be down to run my R/T, but I don't want to invest any energy into exploring that idea if there are only a few of us interested. I would like to acheive the maximum attendance, so that would mean coosing events that the most people are interested in. Oh, just to slarify this for everyone. I am talking about 1/4 mile racing on an actual drag strip, not street racing, I don't want to indulge in racing at the risk of others lives ya know.

Oh I nearly forgot one of the most important thing! We should develop a prize fund for the meet. I don't remember any first gens saying that they would be going, but we could work around that. If we do get several first gens I would think that the prizes might be as such: Best First Gen, Best Second Gen, Best In show or if we don't get enough first gens we could do something like Best Audio/Visual, best performance, best in show. We could skip that if there is no interest in that either.

Also does anybody who is planning on attending golf? I would be interested in trying to get nine holes in somewhere if there is anybody interested.

Yo Brian, Thanks for the heads up. We've been so busy here I haven't been up on the site for a while.
Me and Virginia are in for the meet.
There's plenty of time left so I'm sure there will be plenty of meet ideas ahead. Here are 2 early morning things to kick around. Old Nevada would be nice for the kids and adults. They have an old west show and a 1 hour guided horse back riding in the desert.

If it isn't windy Las Vegas Marina has jet ski and boat rentals at Lake Meade.
Glad to see the interest in another Las Vegas meet.
Joe
