Default setting up ARLINGTON meet !!!!!

guy's i got the perfect place for a meet up in arlington, its off cooper by the parks mall, if you're on I-20 exit cooper and go north, the parks mall will be on your right hand side, about half a mile up on the right hand side of cooper there is a whataburger open 24/7 and has a huge huge parking lot behind it that is always empty, i dont even know why that parking lot was built..... anyways its an easy drive from I30 or I20 since its off cooper and in between the 2 interstates, also food and drink available 24/7 and the parking lot behind whataburger has good lighting and can easily hold 100 cars.....it dont get dark til 9 so i was thinking of starting at 9pm........ lets vote on which nights though, anyone in or around arlington reply up and say if ur goin and what day of the week you'd like to meet and i will set it up by this weekend!!!!!!!

note: if anyone needs better directions pm me

I would advise talking to the owner or night manager of the Whataburger before just showing up with a bunch of cars and hanging out in their parking lot..

It will get fucked off by the Ricers like usual... I don't know how many Good meets I started in the South Arlington area but the damn Ricers always found it and fucked things up. So good luck with that one...

Actually, that parking lot belongs to Buck'N'Loons....so I'd go talk to Buck. They have ***-kicking burgers there, too.

Whoever's it is.
It would just suck to have a good meet going and someone call the law to bust it up. Plus this way if you do have permission for a certain crowd you can be selective about who can be there.

i talked to the mgr last week and they said it was buck and loons parking lot so i walked next door and talked to them and they said its cool pretty much, buck and loons customers park in the front and side but the huge parking lot that is their's is like behind them and diagional from them and directly behind whataburger and its pretty big, buck and loons never uses that parking lot, so like i said its big, empty, and always available...... it sounds like friday night is what everybody wants so lets start every friday at 9 pm, ........... head count how many are coming??? i got 4 ls1 lined up to come w/ myself

Sounds like you guys have the right Idea....As far as Rice Goes...you build a strong enough group of guys that enjoy this meet and will stick together it will not be a problem....(When 20 plus of us walk up to a moron they tend to listen)

All Meets get to the point where they destroy themselfs...enjoy it as long as you can .....

I have hosted the 2920 meet of almost a year now....we left for a lil over 2 months and got the okay to come back....putting on meets is very "Hit or Miss" 2920 is a hit ...Conns was a miss.....its all about the core group of ppl that hang out there

Very good point...keep the core group strong and responsible. Losers will always show up and try to ruin it for everyone. That is just part of the game. Gotta keep those losers from running all over everyone. Good luck with the GTG. I hope this turns into a good meet.

I'll be there more than likely. I live right near there, and there are quite a few LS1s that go to UTA with me that will probably start attending once school is back in session. I was supposed to go to Ennis, but I forgot about having tickets to the Rangers that night, so I'll be by after the game.

ALSO...and these are important...
1) RACING ON COOPER WILL END THIS MEET REAL FAST.
2) Dumbasses that want to do burn outs in the parking lot or while pulling out should be told to leave and not come back. It's people like this that get your good idea squashed real fast.

Please don't think that I'm telling anyone what to do. These are just a few suggestions that might help the meet last, and be ignored by the police.
IE: HOOTERS meets.
