But who was winter meets?

[Bruce Jibboo]

Not twin peaks if the mustang guys come, we don't need the girls laughing at us again

After seeing poor souls and slim get picked on for being fat, I'm not meeting anyone till I drop 100 pounds.

I've tried to get a off-season meet going since October. Lack of interest from TCG Staff kept me from posting something up. I feel that is a direct reflection on attendance. Christmas party was canceled before it was planned due to things out of our control. I've talked about a January Twin Peaks meet for a while now. Just need a blessing from Mook.



I was extremely down on last years meets because of participation from core members and general attendance. The first meet was a great success but I feel they fizzled out after. I also don't like how the members from the south consistently bitch about meets "up north" yet when I have a meet way down in Aurora the only people that attended were people from the north.

I think it might be best to divide and conquer. I agree with your comment regarding people barking about location. You certainly cannot please everybody. I did four or five track days last year and most people just barked about what track I chose.

So maybe, for now, some more northern meet ups and separate southern meet ups?

We also did some CMC meets in St Charles a few times, which worked out pretty well for both crowds.

K1 would be a fun one, and it's in Addison.

Sign me up for one too. I'll wear it to secret shocker racing meets.

 

[SinisterSHO]

I wanna go to secret meetz

 

[DEEZUZ]

My only advice to newbies is to just fucking sack up and show up. Only way you're going to be apart of the fam.

As for the old inside jokes and shit, who cares, it's about good company.

No invite to the Chicago Auto show this year?

 

[OffshoreDrilling]

You're never going to make everyone happy with time, date and location. Pick a reasonable amount of all three and set it up.

I believe that most (or all?) of this was me and don't worry I'm done with it.

 

[Mook]

No. We also didn't pursue it either this go around.

Can I bitch about how I showed up and had to hang out with all the up north ****?

In all seriousness I appreciate the effort put forth to set this stuff up. Would love another trip to Aurora as my mug is getting dusty.

I recall only 1 or 2 of you coming to doggie diner when we had it every week

The problem is when even the current members dont feel welcome at meets because the 'core' people or old timers still only talk to each other and dont talk to the people they dont know.

 

[OffshoreDrilling]

which is why i suggest doing something more than only sitting at a table and having food. People will be broken into smaller groups and have a chance to socialize

You know what would be cool, a TCG trivia night. We could definitely get a private room at a bar or restaurant, make up some automotive theme trivia questions and get a buy in for a few bucks to put up some prizes

 

[EmersonHart13]

That's money right there

I didn't even make it to Chubbys and it's 10 min from my house. Going somewhere an hour away once a month is one thing. But going every week is probably what turned people away. That place was far from everyone.

whirlyball is so much fun and you can get drunk.

you guys need to encourage panda. he was extremely down on last years attempts.

IN IN IN.
