Default Sonic Meet changes for Feb 12

Hey everyone,

I have been looking at some of the posts, and it seems that to stay from 9:30-10:30 seems a little pointless, and I was thinking about moving the meet up at least an hour, say 8ish?

Also, I understand Drew's reasoning for Sonic (American drive in blah blah blah) but their service is crap, and I have a good feeling they dislike us. Perhaps Whataburger next door? Moe's Southwest Grill? Somewhere else?

Input from others would be nice, and in the end we'll reach some type of agreement.

Thanks,
Dana

Dana.. Is there a Ale House in that area? Or a Wing House or even a Hooters? Places like that are always open to the business as long as we're buying food/beer. Granted, we'd need a place with good lighting and a lot of parking places to seperate our selves from the rest of the run of the mill car crowd. Personally I think a wing place would be cool so we could all go in on a large order of wings and take advantage of the discount.

I know for a fact there is the Orlando Ale House in Waterford Lakes, and the closest Hooters is on Lake Underhill. I'd be game for Hooters , because I know we were trying to avoid Waterford at all costs.

Yeah, but the Ale House parking lot is small and always full....Wing House is in the same plaza area on the 436 side. Boobies!

The Hooters on Lake Underhill is generally a lot less crowded than any of the other listed places.

I think it's a bit out of the way for most of you guys though.

hooters on Lake underhill is cool, we have had soem V6 meets there, they have a decent sized lot.


We could meet at waterford Ale house, lot isn't too big, and the Ricer meet is across the street on the Cirtcuit city side, but still pretty close to ricers.


AND, I believe "old waterford Lakes" security gets pissy about car meets, though I have seen VW people meet near bestbuy.

My vote would have to go to winghouse as well. Alehouse is my fav wing place, but if the parking lot is crowded.. its out. Winghouse > Hooter IMO.

What time are we all meeting up this time around.. 8, 8:30, 9 flat? I'm down for whenever.. but I know a person or two who may not make it out all the time if its much earlier than 9.

Theres already a huge meet at waterford lakes on tuesday nights. Theres a tijuana flats right across the street of sonics where the meet use to be on wednesday nights. Im sure if you had a deal with T.F. instead of just showing up at the parking lot there wouldnt be a problem with having a show there.
