Not to be pushy but any ideas on the annual DC.com Charger meet?

[RD]

ya know, I dont want to say this because I am 70 miles away from the place, but why do we not make the charger fever meet the official dodgecharger.com meet?  Kansas is a central location, the city has plenty of hotel space, its right off of a major interstate, and a major local car show is already established there?  I know some dont want to drive long distance, but this would be a helluvalot better than driving all the way to ohio or pa for the nats or carlisle.

just a thought.

I don't know....I honestly believe that the seperate shows for east coast, west coast, maybe even central is the only fair way to to deal with it with gas prices these days. From that point it should be a matter of percentages. (more members in that area should control what state the show is in.

Just my thoughts

I know there is no way I'm driving my classic car across the country for a car show unless theres a very damn good reason to do it (Like Daytona 500  )

Is Tacoma Dodge putting on a show again this year? Combine the two, if so - you know, this being the birthday of the Charger and all.

My second vote would be to join forces with Sunbust. The fairgrounds in Graham are beautiful, and as close to the "country" as one can get anymore. It's also a great starting point for a cruise through whats-left-of-rural-Pierce county.

I agree that Graham is beautiful, but there show alone packs that place, they would not let us
join the crowd, its been on the over-Flo for yeas, besides I spend all my time in the swap meet
area and miss the show

Kent in August was great weather, I will go again for sure.     If it is another time or place around Washington I will go.   Never been to Kentucky, would love to see that part of the country, but don't know if I could make it that far.   Thanks for organizing the show last summer Mark.   


    Pic from Triple Green's Car, see 8Wheeler's car in there?   And PlumCrazy?

I had to have somebody else lead for a change    Mike and I could have made that cruise and had a beer
before anybody else made it

  PlumCrazy lit em up in his purple '70 right when we got there, I snapped a pic on Marks camera, but I must have made a mistake cuz it never showed up on his camera,  ,      it looked cool though.   

[RECHRGD]

Kent would be good.  May would be wet.  Doing it the same weekend as another event would leave those with the energy and time for two days of mopar festivities with a choice.  Bob

SCG, PlumCrazy would work or you can call me PlumStupid.    I guess they both mean the same.  I just haven't changed out my username yet.  Once AllBlueRT is a username everyone scowls at it, I'll change it.

If I can find a trailer, it won't matter.  Problem is all my friends need that same trailer if there's a chance of rain.  Sunbust is my favorite show in the NW.  I wouldn't mind coming up on a Friday night and spending the weekend in Seattle...

oops, I have been confused, ok, AllBlueRT now   

[89MOPAR]

  AllBlue - you are bringing so many goody bags for participants you need a trailer to haul them ? Right on !

Saturday before Bellevue/remlinger/Seattlemoparsunlimited  show is always bad, there's always a Mopar drags day in Bremerton that day!

[5.9_Liter_Grand_Cherokee]

Just my $0.02, but the Triple X in Issaquah is always asking me when I am going to have a mopar show there.  They have arranged to have a car show on June 25th where they are closing the main drag through Issaquah.  It would be an all makes show, but we could have a Charger only show on Saturday at the Resturant, I can talk to the owner if you are interested.  I don't want to step on any toes, or make waves, I do enough of that in the Bellevue Show. 

[Silver R/T]

nice pics, hopefully I can make it this year

Just curious but do you guys have something against the 69's? I see a lot of 68's in that picture and a 70.


I think the only way to do a board meet, is to have more than one show. One for the west coast, one for the midwest, and one for the east coast.

I think you're right, except for the part about having issues with the '69.

[mopar_madman]

any midwest people, I think there is gonna be a big show in chicago around the end of august at route 66 dragstrip. Might be a good central meeting place.

The cheese grater boyz didn't want to cruise with us I guess. 

Same arguement every year considering location.  The original board had a NW flavor to it so we planned a get together.  Nothing against other parts of the country, if I remember correctly every year a few members get something going for their areas just like Mark does up here.  It's just that we had Jesse show up at ours.  That's not something to be promoting anymore. 

As long as Mark takes the time out of his schedule and does this for us, I'll be up there every year.  If people don't like the fact we have one up here every year, plan your own in your area.  Make it a yearly event like ours.   There's no reason to change what Mark has successfully been doing.  The more meets there are, the more pix we get to look at.

69 500, with your following you should be able to organize a good size one.  Then us NW'er's can snivel about how it should be in our neck of the woods.

I posted the pictures of the show before, I posted pictures of the cruise we had this time, not my fault that
there was no 69's that wanted to go on the cruise.

There was only one 69 at the show as well, don't know why  

The 2004 show had several 69's, the bottom car of these two pics was from the 2004 show, the first pic was the only 69.

Things are looking good for July 22nd. All we are waiting for is the paperwork to be approved. Offcie says they don't see any problems.

[472 R/T SE]

THANKS Mark! 

As I said before, if you'd like, I could show up early and try to give you a hand.   I'm sure I could talk Dan into it, wait a minute, he's usually a few hours early anyways.   I bet you'll have your hands full this year.   

Did they say which side?  It doesn't matter to me, we got noticed by traffic more up front tho.   And this year when we cruise I'll make sure my throttle sticking problems are cured.    I don't know why it only happens in parking lots.

mike.

[SeattleCharger]

 Sure ALLBlueR/T, the cops really buy that story when they see you doing smoke shows?   

[triple_green]

We are signed up for the SE parking lot which can be seen off off 240th(the busy street). This is the original location.

I'll let you guys know about helping as the time get closer. I'm sure I will be ableto use it.

Cool, out there on the glory side. 

I could be the one who takes peoples' money when they show up.
