Haha - ok, I forgot about the need for a nice drive post "show"... But the parking lot is pretty freakin big (which was my only other search criteria, given how crowded it was getting on the lat Sunday) The proposed location on Ventura looks like a spot where the retailers will be startled to see more than 15 cars in the lot at an given time (thanks to Google maps it also looks like there are no speed bumps) so we should be safe there for a while.
IF you come out to see this location I'll get you a bottle of the "Over rated" Peter Lugar's Steak Sauce. ps they used to sell it at Gelsons ! Great Steaks don't need sauce
New Place to meet in the Valley. We found one Come out next Sunday and check it out 19724 Ventura Blvd in Tarzana http://picasaweb.google.com/AtHomeInTheValley/110809SCS?feat=directlink
I still went out there and bought a pound of coffee. The cops and the rent-a-cops gave me a nasty glance, maybe because my 7'er sounds like the wrath of the almighty when it starts up.
I was there Sunday parked next to a 575. There was also a Viper and a Mini. 3 security guards, 1 LAPD. I guess one person for each one of us?
Dustin should offer 50% off coffee to all Police, Fire, and Ambulance drivers on Sundays. Get that parking lot filled up with CHP, Sheriffs, LAPD and see how security reacts to a whole new crowd.
I haven't read all the posts so maybe someone has already recommended the "Wizzin's Center" in Agoura. They have a large parking lot just behind Wood Ranch BBQ. There's also a Johnny Rockets across the street and is basically at the mouth of Kanan Road. I don't have any contacts to them. It was just a thought. Everytime I'm there I always think it would be a great place to gather. I would however before you just show up there, discuss it with the owners and discuss all the pros and cons and seek their permission. To give a gathering like this any chance of future success you need to do your homework. Hope this helps. Freeman
Really? Not surprised that security gave dirty looks but the cops too huh? Read back a few posts and see what my position is on this whole thing. Being the only officer there, that means that I am the one to give you a dirty look. You sir, are mistaken.
I did not look over my shoulder, the guy with the yellow muscle car in the baseball cap sitting at the first table quipped that all eyes were on me. My exhaust has a healthy tone, and it was just done the day before but a little louder than I wanted. I did set off 2 car alarms at the Commons just about 30 minutes later.
If you guys are interested in having a new home where you've actually been invited to stay, please have whoever organizes these events contact me. I can be reached via my email address [email protected].
Oops Looks like an apology is owed. Now the question. Does he have the class to swallow his pride and apologize ? We shall seeeeeeee. Regards, Stew
There is a final meeting next week for a new and really great location. It's convenient and the management company wants us there. This new location would start the Sunday after the December 6th Motor4toys event. Hopefully this can be announced at the end of next week. The only reason the place is not being disclosed is so that the contracts can be signed.
