On the west side of Charlotte.

To the person that asked, we have a meet that we call "The Palace meet". Our next meet is Sept. 1st. A very large turnout and with Fbody motorsports having a cruise to the palace this one will be a large meet. You should come by and check it out.

It's not just an F-body meet. Mostly all types of American muscle with a few imports.
