VA/MD/DC Meet interest?

[Nazrat]

I was at that show about 2 weeks ago with a buddy (we usually go before dark, which means before the ricers and low riders show up) along with his Cougar, and about 4 years ago in my Hummbug. It would be fun to see a line of VXs in the field (overflow, but a fitting place for the VXs) behind the BJ next to all of the cars.

I do think that something more central would be a good idea though.

Hey Tad,

Can I crash at your place?

Doesn't seem like anybody has been able to pin down a meeting location yet so I'll throw out the idea of meeting somewhere in Tyson's Corner. There is plenty of parking, good restaurants/bars and it's pretty centrally located. Any thoughts??

By the power vested in me by me, I now declare you the Namer-of-the-Meet-Location. Pick a restaurant and I'll be there.

Yup, name the place and I'll be there.

Regardless of where it is, my time is limited because of work. Serious crunchmode (no thanks to being developer whores for Xbox 360 titles) and I pretty much have to breathe, eat, and sleep while working. I work in Rockville, MD so, in "my" case, the closer to there the better, since I can always cut out for a small bit. Looks like you all have a good number of folks for a turnout though so I am expendable if you plan it further.

Hey, shouldn't we meet somewhere were we can do some off-roadin'. I just recently purchased my VX in APril and I am ashamed to have only driven it in the city since. It is screaming to run free in the wild!! Cmon guys, yeah restaurants and meeting anywhere would be great, but lets make our babies happy and give them some wide open spaces to play in. Any ideas?

[vxstorm]

On a side note Tyson's Corner would be great. Maybe there are some cool roads around Great Falls that we could take? I am not entirely familar with that area.

Lately, my wife and I noticed more in more VXs. In two weeks I saw 5 different Vehicross alone! My wife saw 2.
All in Fairfax, Herndon, Reston and Sterling area.

They stop making them right?

I saw one parked in a townhouse/apartment complex lot last night near the Fair Oaks mall. It looked like an Ironman. Anybody here?

I suspect it was yours that I saw once or twice in Herndon.

Okay, how about meeting at Tyson's II. I was thinking The Cheesecake Factory. I scoped out the parking situation today and I think if we all meet on the top of the parking garage at the far end by Macy's there would be plenty of room available - if weather gets too hot or if these regular afternoon showers pop up we can move to the lower level of the garage. In order to accomodate everyone's busy schedule and to avoid the restaurant rush lets meet at 3:00pm.

For those unfamiliar with the area the address is:
Tysons Corner II - Galleria Mall
1796 International Drive, McLean, VA 22102

I don't know of any offroading spots in the area, probably too close to the city. If anyone has a better idea/location lets hear it.

Hey, sounds good to me. I am eager to see more VX's!! There do seem to be alot of Vx's in the NOVA area. Hopefully we can get everyone together. And you are right about the off-roading thing, it is too close to the city. I guess I will just have to do donuts in the parking lot or something. Hope to see you all!!

[Ron Pfeiffer]

Plus, with the 3:00 time, I can wash my 'Zue again before the meet. Can't show up with a dirt ride, now . . .

We can substitute driving over sidewalks and mall planter boxes for a little light off-roading. I'm sure we can find someplace we aren't supposed to drive, and then drive there
