done took photos there at tha cap. they come out sweet!!!! better during the sunset to get pics. i have a couple of spots to take some good shots.

but yall should just wait till FEB. 28 the club im in is throwing a statewide car show. its for all GM small cars.....like cavaliers, cobalts, hhrs, sunfires, redlines, solstices and sky. also having a afterparty after tha show.

saw pics a vids from the last time he tried this.....didnt look good at all. tha show will be ten times better. plus its at a 1/4 mile track.....lots of fun

hey bobby this isnt a state wide meet its just an austin area meet and the state meet wasnt to good because of bad planning and people wanting to change stuff in the middle of the day like where we were gonna cruz and photo shot at

well sorry if i was misunderstood...but why not just have a meet at the 620 area......that would be better, since there is alot of deltas and jbodies. could make it a weekly or monthly thing......if i have time between school and work ill try and make it

I believe that happened for the same reason it will happen again. You aren't taking control of this meet from the very start. You should just form a game plan behind the scenes and post it when you have all the details worked out. It's your meet, your rules, your location, etc. Trust me man, if you 'build' it they will attend in large, massive amounts. Good luck dewd. I bet some of the Houston guys would even be down for it again. We gotta support our fellow texans

actually they have been to the south meet a couple of times. only 1 ss/sc black one i think. they even tried recuiting him....but there is another meet i heard at school. its some where on 290 near a randalls i think. but the majority of cobalts meet up on 620.....but giddings, san marcos, georgetown and bastrop isnt considered austin

wardzach2007- you should come to the meet on 620 this weekend if your in austin. like section8 said, casue we are the largest gm small car club in austin. mainly cavies, cobalts, sunfires....we even have a ss/tc

this isn't your thread and the OP has clearly told you that they want to meet at a specific spot. if you don't agree w/ the spot then don't post.

in all honesty...it was pretaining to the op....he didnt have a place....he dont have any info.....i told him why not just go to the main meets in austin....he use to be a centex club member so he knew of the meets that go on....i know he tattled, but if he would have read further i apologized and even everyone else said that there was a meet at 620 just like me.....HOW COME THEY DIDNT GET A WARNING, BOUT OFF TOPIC POST???????

see dc5....there was no info of any kind. till i said go to the 620 meet since thats were all the austin cobalts go. whats wrong with that. i cant state a fact.

What's wrong with my post? I was giving him positive, constructive advice. He asked a question and I answered it, didnt attempt to threadjack at all

Yea, if you guys want to come down and hang out with a lot of cobalts/LSJs head over to 620/I-35 on Saturday evening. It's really informal, but there's always 4-5 local cars, plus random people who just happen to show up like the silver TC guy.

We're also planning on heading down to SAR on Sept 20th, and anyone who wants to is more than welcome to come.

but urs was the same as mine. he didnt have anything planned. i gave him ideas and places that meets go on, and if he wanted he could have checked them out. but no he told a mod i thread jacked his thread i said i know 3 meets and i have good spots to take pics like he wanted? isnt that what he wanted....since like you said last time he didnt plan anything out and this time plan everything and when he has all the details then post. other wise whats the use.
