DFW Monthly meet thread...

Hey man I am new to this site and just wanted to get to know some people. I have a very clean 90 Ls and a pretty mint 92 DB2 with the original B17. I was looking foward to hanging out with yall at the meet next month.

Ok not sure if I over read it but what’s the exact date of the picnic

At last notice it will be April 18th unless something has changed. I thought we would have a list of who is bringing what up by now but things have been a bit dicey of late. Ben, Christian, are you still going to do that or do you want me to start one?

“SNAP” Sorry t belman welcome to the group. Our unofficial leaders are Ben(BigJimSlay) and Christian(operator207). One question though… How are you going to get 2 G2s to the meet? LOL bring em.

Hey Christian there’s a date for your ride…LOL

Ok great the 18th is good I’m off hopefully ill have a new hood some one put a dent in my hood anyone know were I can get a cheap hood

My Girlfriend is driving one for me. Hey do you know what time it is going to start?

Last I heard it would be somewhere around 3 to 4 or so. Keep checking back I could be wrong.

Okay seeing as the powers that be haven’t responded. I guess I’ll start a list of who is bringing what. Keep in mind guys/girls that you are buying for a semi large group so make quantities appropriate. Hopefully somewhere in the range of 30 or so, cause some of the people are bringing guests and family so we can make a day of it…

Charcol/lighter - Da TegLover/Zipper

Burgers/buns? - Zipper

Hotlinks/buns? - Da TegLover

drinks? - spikehead221

Chips? - Da TegLover

I will most likely be bringing something not on the list as I can take advantage of a hook-up of sorts from my second job(pizza). Have no fear there will be enough for everyone. If you want to bring something not on the list let me know and I can post it up so nobody else does or you guys can share in the cost if more than one person wants to bring the same thing. The more people that bring stuff the less each one has to bring if there are more than one person bringing the same things.

Anything else you guys can think of?..

:bigread:

Also I guess we should start up a list of who is going to commit to showing up. Just be aware that if you show up empty handed, pigging out will be [SIZE=“6”]HIGHLY[/SIZE] frowned upon.

Commit to show list:

  1. Da TegLover

  2. spikehead221

  3. zipper2692000

  4. t belman

I’m down so far. Put me up for hot links and chips

what to bring to drink. ill stop by sams and drag out a big ass cooler. just lmk what yall kinda want.

im down with basically anything. just cant afford that much beer lol

well i thought it was about 4 or a little later. since i have class from 9 to 4 on saturdays. we always get out around 2:30 so i was gonna get cleaned up and good stuff. meet with my friends who are goin up with me.

Here is the list so far… If we can get everyone on board this will be the best meet yet. As for the “adult” beverages I personally don’t mind but there is always that one person in the crowd that screws it up for everyone. Seeing as this is being set up as a “FAMILY” affair I would lean away from those types of drinks but I also can’t restrict them. I will try to find a map of the location today or this evening and post it up also.

Okay guys here is the link to the park that we are going to be meeting at. For all you guys driving gravel diggers (LOL) ie negative offset or close you should still be able to get into the parking area. There are TWO speend breakers… They are about 3-4 feet wide and maybe 4 inches tall or so. Actually I think I was going down with the front as I was going up with the rear so there shouldn’t be any clearance issues. If you can drive around on regular streets then you should have no problem with these.

Use the markers and you can actually scroll down the driveway and see the speed breakers.

…////\ There is a list about 4 replies up from yours. ////…
Pick from the list or add something else if you like. Just please let me know what you are bringing so we know what is going to be there… If you are gonna be there I’ll put you on the commit to show list…

so should we bring chairs? i just want to make sure so i got somewhere to sit. including family and friends, how many so far are going? i know i have at least 2 of my friends going with me. just trying to start planning out buying drinks since i just got paid and i dont have anything major coming up i need to pay

Gentlemen, I do apologize about being rude of the picnic planning, I have been in exile. As some of you are aware, do to personnal problems with my life as far as employment, independance and now the most recent issue of a loss of a family member, I have been unable to participate in the discussions of recent times. I was in Los Angeles since last week caring for my mother and had just returned back to Texas late wednesday. I have almost lost everything that I have owned and am trying to get my life back in form.
My spirit has been down for sometime and am in need of starting life over. I know some of you have been very supportive of me and helping me out with getting my life on track and I am very thankful. You guys ARE first class in my heart, and that is something that I will NEVER forget.
Unfortunatlly, I need to get back in the line of work that I have skills with and put the pieces of my life back together. As of last night, through all the pain that I have endured, I just instantly packed what few things I have and left for Atlanta, GA. I am currently in Ruston, LA resting at a hotel before I continue my journey as I grew depressed with my recent loss in the family during my travels and will be leaving in another few hours.
I know people were trying to encourage me to stay to continue the G2 meets and all the networking of bringing everyone together, but I know that someone in the group can keep the movement going and have the leadership to keep it alive. I hope that you guys can do that and make it better than what I was able to acheive…no we were able to acheive!

operator207-you were a dear friend that I was able to have an intelligent conversation with and you inspired me to begin finding new members to make this all work

zipper2692000-I thank you for your last minute help, but my spirit really broke down when I received the grim news of my stepfather, and just gave up on all my alternate plans of staying in Texas

AlsIntegra-you are my best friend, you are the one that made me turbocharged, were there when I needed help when my car broke down and your wife and family have been great in our friendship, You and your family I will dearly miss

teg_rage32-the giant Grizzly Adams of the bunch, I am very happy to have known you and could have made a great relation with you and your private backyard of gold. (I turned out not driving to LA, but departed by plane the next morning due to family coming together and getting me a ticket)

As far as the April 18th picnic that I had planned, once again I am sorry I am unable to participate in this special event, and I know I was responsible for the charcoal and lighter fluid. I need someones leadership in my void to continue this event and make it turn out well, please do this for me as I had high hopes on a great turnout.
I will keep in contact with you all as soon as I get myself settled in Atlanta and pray and hope that you guys not only bring this picnic to a great turn out for the D/FW, but continue the legacy of the G2IC club, keep it alive and create new meets and other exciting get togethers to attract new G2 owners to be a part of something special…something that was so special to me.

God bless you all and have a great picnic.:hugs::wave::sad:

You got us mixed up Ben.The person your referring about is teg_rage32 which is Wayne. Hahaaha the words you used to describe fit him pretty good.

So whats going to happen with you? Are you not going to come to the meets anymore? Are you going to sell your car? I wish you the best of luck on what you need to do. Hang in there, and something will turn out for you. All things happen for a reason.

I wont be able to make it to the next meet. I will be doing some serious wrenching these next few weekends…

Well, bring a few it you need them. It couldn’t hurt. If you have extras and the room to put them in then bring those as well. As for how many are going I would bring enough for 20 or so and if we have to we can always get more.
