North Charlotte, pretty much huntersville. There is usuaully atleast one cruise in every day of the week. Hooters in Mooresville monday nights, Bruster's is starting up again tuesday nights, and a bunch of others. Honestly I have been really disappointed with the turn outs at the palace meets lately, both times our group has brought well over half the cars out there. We dont even see the originaters of the meet up there anymore. Past couple times the palace has been dead

lilmangto, here's matt's directions off of carolinarides.com. didn't sound like a very big turn out last time.

This will be one meet of many for everyone to hang out. Most should know about it by now. Its gonna be off of (exit 25) in Huntersville. Take a left once you get off 77(or right if coming south, 5 lights) and goto the 6th light (you'll see a cashions and a CVS on the left) and take a right. Drive around the bend and go 1/4 mile and look for us on the right. We will be at the top of the parking lot of the Palace movie theater. Starts at 9:00pm. All cars are welcome. Post this on other local boards////usually a bunch of nice cars there.

it's almost always better to meet up somewhere and drive up together anyway.

that cruise in every monday @ hooters in mooresville seems to be very popular this year too. i had about 5 guys from around the area meet up and we all drove up to mooresville together. if we could have meet zlover and erics crew somehow, there would have been a ton of us.
it's just difficult to get a hold of everyone to meet up at the same time.
