It looks like I'm from 1800-2400 miles away from most of you, so I think I'll have to pass...

 

Jay, one of these days we'll meet half way...1000+ k travel for all.

 

Locations - copy and paste the list into your post and add your location to the bottom. Maybe this will help us get an idea of where everyone is in the East and help with a location selection - include the town/city you live in as well as the State if you don't mind, or perhaps the closest large city if you are out in the sticks. I'll start and post up locations from what I see already in this thread, if you have a blank by your name then fill in your city if you don't mind:

Chris X: Pittsburgh, PA
Michael Star: Bowling Green, KY
ChrisSTR: NYC, NY
Achysklic: ______ ,OH (Columbus was it?)
jag79: _______, Florida
Vance580: Fuquay-Varnia, NC (Raleigh)
bfsgross: _______ ,NY
Uropnm6: Syracuse, NY

androulakis: Hamilton, NJ
kemp neal: Southern Pines, NC
Enthusiast: ________ Canada (Montreal, eh?)

Honorable Mention: JOsworth: Akron, OH

Thanks guys, let's keep comin' with those ideas.

 

Isnt there a site that you can put a pin on where you live and only allow access to people by a link so you dont get outsiders tagging there local. Then we can see it on a map which should help if I find the site I'll start pinning them so we can see where the clusters are. Maybe I'll just bust out my east coast map and start pinning. I have family in Florida and Michigan so all my traveling is only on the east coast.

Here is what I have so far I can add as we find out cities of those other guys and anyone else who is interested.

This is private so you have to have that link to see it.

Updated map. It just has a placemark in the city you give and your screen name. This way when we get a central location we will know who lives there. Its not on your house so dont worry that someone will know where your house is and if the placemark is on your house its strictly coincedence.

 

Cool map. Looks like Steeler town is the middle most point. I'll be wearing my Giants blue.

 

Next your going to post a how to video on making this map...

Sorry, just had to....

Vance, that is cool as h*ll. Hope more people pitch in and it'll be neat to see where the "central" point is..

 

Looks like that may be in the middle of a Kansas prairie.
Hmmm looonnng wide open roads..............noooooo traffic...???

 

I can if you need too. LOL. If we get this going I will be bringing my video camera. I'll shoot everything in 1080p and maybe put a nice video together of the meet.

Yea its looking like Philly is centralized and has a member. Lets get some more people that are interested in going then we can see what our options are.

 

I'm actually Long Island, NY

I'm stuck a little close to home but would love to go to a show!

 

Jeff deserves more than an Honorable mention! Heck he can borrow one of my Jags to drive if he wants

Take care,

George

 

Wheres my pin? lol

 

Updated map off of the list so far. I added you too Mafioso.

Also updated the list below to be current.

I looked for some more events to perhaps anchor the meet up. Carlisle PA is a popular place for car shows. They have an import and kit car meet in May, pre-registration is $20 and I think day of the show is $30 for the non-judged entries: http://store.carlisleevents.com/Sear...lts.asp?Cat=23

Carlisle is near Harrisburg, PA. I don't know if we have a member there or near there. This is a big event, so I'm not sure if it would be a good fit for us or not, but something else to consider.
