those who have volenteered have been basically told to f off.... so why should they organize it.... seems to me there are way too many bitches.... and i cant please them all.... no matter how hard i try...

 

Are you talking this year or in years past?

 

this year....

 

I must have missed it or not read it properly. That sucks. I think that anyone stepping up to organize an event should be supported. I mean we can all make suggestions to make the event better but flaming ideas is just terrible.

 

If I were any good at planning anything I would do it but i'm horrible at making plans. Mark, I'd say just get an idea from a group of guys and run with it. if people want to come along then that's their choice. I for one can't commit right now but I would sure go for just about anything if someone took the time to make a plan.

 

i tried jon.... all i heard was i dont want to camp.... i dont want to race srt's.... i dont want to spend no money.... i dont other then gm's.... i dont want this charity.... i dont want i dont want i dont want..... get the picture.... well i dont want the stress of trying to please anyone any more..... i am sorry guys but i seen how bad chad got flamed by our own.... the part you dont realize was he was supported by some of us who helped him say screw u all.... this is whats going to happen and thats it.... and it turned into the best meet to date.... well i dont have the patience for it anymore... i dont want to be a tag along group... i wish to make differences in peoples lives.... and those who say i dont want i dont have time for.... its simple... if i said i dont want then where would i be? in denial of my son? sorry guys i am bowing out.... until people quit being spoiled.... its either we go full blown event... or you all can have your tag along meet..... and the truth is if you a join it to another event then thats all this group will be is a tag along....

am i the only one with nuts? well seems i have upseted people by having a set.... well too bad... i refuse to cater to it anymore.....

 

ya I see what you're saying I wouldn't be catering to anyone either. I still think the simplest would just be for everyone to go to the super chevy show but thats just me

 

i would simpply like anything to happen, not too picky on location, just need dates. More notice we all get the more chances of a better show up. Justsayin.......

 

well it looks like the Super Chevy show will be returning to Edmonton on sept. 1st thats where I'll be and it'd be cool if more people showed up this year.

 

i just need it in july/august and i can more than likely go. dont care on location, but drags would be nice too

 

lol I got 2 weddings. one in july and one in august!

 

Hey guys,

I've gotten a few PM's about starting some planning for a meet. Now I don't know if I can swing Castrol Raceway again (I will try) depending on the number, however what we should start with are possible dates. June is a full month for many of us as I have read, so why not try for July or August? I'm going to start a quick poll on this and see where we go from there. If there isn't enough interest in a week (meaning if you know of someone who has been lurking/not active on the forums, PM/email the **** out of them), either someone else can take the lead on this or we'll forgo a meet for this year.

 

Aaand here is the poll:
Doodle: CobaltSS.net Western Canada Cobalt Meet 2012

Please make sure you use your CobaltSS.net username so I can figure out who has replied and who hasn't.
Make sure to PM people you don't think are active here anymore but would like to come!

 

I voted. I think that poll idea is really good!

 

lol looks like I woun't be able to make most of those dates. Gotta check my work schedule

 

i think your best chance is a multi platform event....
maybe even get the portable dyno guy from the grove to show up.

or just stick to your own city, and go for wings at BP's or something.

why listen to me.....i dont own a balt anymore.....i just see it parked at my house.....

 

If at the very least, we should pick a location to meet at, and all cruise to Castrol for an afternoon of races and hanging out. Then maybe cruise back and have a beer on a patio somewhere.

I used to do that with the Jbody group and a few others, and it was always laid back and fun.

 

a dyno day would be fun

 

Voted, dyno would be cool. And you owe me a chair if this happens Chad haha.

 

hmm, this thread is active again!?

looking over the pol in a moment here...

 

ok, rather than comment there I would need to explain my weekeds I did not select;

weekend of June 15th = thinking of poping up in Winnipeg ~ for fathers day.

weekends of august 17th & 24th = I'm pretty sure I'm going to be in winnipeg for around the 26th ~ my my uncertainty has me selecting both of those as a no-go...

I would love to see something happen.

I wasn't around for the 2009 meet;
I didn't get ample warning for the 2010 meet - but aside from the pre-event whining, sounded like a great local ect to me...

Since Calgary doesn't have any track or what ever I don't know if this would be a good place to meet;
But we do have a detail shop in the south end of town which the guy might be willing to do dyno day(s) ~ assuming it's arranged far enough in advance...
if for some reason it happens here, I can accommodate people... assuming they have sleeping bags!

I Think Castrol would be a great venue ~ if it could be swung...

I personally don't have anything against meeting with other "tuners" ~ I would just hope that people would show up to have fun, and not get butt hurt if a "brand x" car beats theirs... that goes both ways...

 

So far we've got 10 people interested in the poll (Doodle: CobaltSS.net Western Canada Cobalt Meet 2012) and the best date is the weekend of Friday, August 3 - 9 people have said they can make that date.

Any other takers speak now! That's certainly not enough to book the strip at Castrol, but it's certainly enough to do Drum or Cypress Hills or something.

 

voted in the poll

 

meh dont care what we do, or the day, ill try my best to make it out. but i may or may not be in ontario all august.

 

the last weekend in June is a long weekend iirc ~ Canada day!
