dont ya'll know georgia diner's parking lot has bad lighting and its huge but most of the parking lot roads in uneven. it has big pot holes.pot holes so big grass grows between them. if its packed on a friday night, that parking lot is full. and we probably have to end up parking in the dark and uneven road area. and Since we run deep in the #'s of 240s they have have a parking attendant that comes back and forth, i dont think theyll like it when they see a bunch of guys hanging in the parking lot. it will be cold,we'll be wearing our hoods, probably think we're thugs, call 5-0 on us. we should stick with sage diner or mcdonalds. both places have good roads in the parking lot. and the places are cheaper. I VOTE FOR MCDONALDS, but lets actually go inside the place. that place doesnt close till like 2-3am. we start the meet at 11pm, we set for 3 hours. and everyone can afford mcdonalds. they have the best fries. i hate diner fries, its thick and has no taste. mcdonalds has better lighting and a bigger parking lot. and we can see our cars clearly when we inside, like i told you, THE CHROME CONTINUES TO SPIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The ppl at Sage were about to kick us out man cause they were like you cant loitter in the parking lot. Its gonna be like that everywhere you go no matter what. As for the parking at Georgia, stick to the back where the light post is and your set, roads are no as bumpy as you think. Ive gone there with 15-20 ppl all the time in the summer and never had a problem.
As for Mcdonalds, no one really makes plans to eat at Mcdonalds, Burger King or Wendy's. When you have plans it usually calls for some place nice thats not fast food. Even if you did, it would be Burger King. Its everything you like, Big lite parking lot on Queens blvd with super smooth roads and of course the fries are better than Mcdonalds.

well i didn't hear about the loittering issue, because when I paid the bill they said nothing to me except a Big Thank you and also we stayed in the parking lot some time after we ate and had no trouble that I was aware of. Also, they had space and good lighting.

Going to McDonald's to eat with 18-22 of us is kind of ghetto if you don't mind me saying so. I used to do that when I was in like Jr. High School Trips, but its whatever. Another thing is that Sage Parking Lot we can see while we eat more or less. But i just want to do what the majority is down for.

I am down for the Georgia diner. I think some locals who run this meet should check out the parking situation.

The Sage had no beef with us. We were asked if we were coming in. I smiled. Said hell yeah it is cold out here and we all went in. The owner was cool with us. Asked how many and told us to go in thru the front. Table was set before we got in there.

We can wear hoodies. We can wear leotards. We can wear clown outfits. It don't matter. I will show up there early and give them a heads up that the bi-weekly car club will be driving in.

They will look forward to the nice tab and we will be indoors.

Don't worry about the logistics. They will be handled.

I don't want to get on you Ben but I don't like McDs. I can say I do not ever want to eat their food. Plus they will not let us in at 1am after we have hung out in the parking lot for a great deal of time.

Sage and Georgia will gladly take our money as long as we don't peel out, do donuts or act like troublemakers. If we have them in the group we will have to address the fact.

Car clubs hold weekly meets at parking lots all over. There are reasons the meets are held weekly. The lots host them. It is a thing advertised in the neighborhood.

Lets meet up at the Sage. Send a scout to the Georgia. Then play it by ear.

Very well said Stan; you would make a great arbitrater/deliberater. Sage was definitely hospitable in everyway; its just I thought the owner was mad in the beginning when everyone was just hanging out. Either way I would like to alternate between the 2 if possible otherwise it just becomes too routine.

As for burnouts, I apologize. Just love to hear the sound of the 2 step kicking in. Wont happen again.

Seriously I didn't even notice your burnout. I am talking about stand still billowing smokers. I think you just boosted it a little and let the little sucker go. Nothing wrong with that.

We are good people. Good things will come our way.

well Sage it is and we'll see what happens from there. I did say the owner was cool with us and thats why I don't mind going back, because they had absolutely no beef with us and were very hospitable, especially since they didn't even know we were coming there in the first place. So lets see whats up and sometimes a little routine is a good thing in order to get #'s.

Mr. Li CONGRADS dude! I am happy for you. How was your drive back??? I see you can keep up pretty good there. Dave is a pretty good driver when he wants to get somewhere in a short amount of time.

See you at the next meet.
