How long do the meets last usually? I am trying to make it but i am going trail riding in the morning. Are you usually still there around 4ish or so? Do you go for a cruise anywhere after lunch? Sorry for all the ?'s Just trying to get the feel for timing it all
Thanks, Dave
And why don't I ever see all these 7's in Charlotte. I work at Charlotte Honda motorcycles on Freedom dr. You guys should stop by there sometime. My FD is always there. If not the FD then the FC will be there. Ask for Dave in the service department

22 mpg eh? What was that like? ha ha... Since it got cold, I've been averaging 16.1... I was stoked when I hit 18mpg earlier this week. Look forward to seeing you guys again tomorrow! I wonder if there are any female RX7 owners in the area we might be able to get to join us? That would be awesome...

Is this info right?
So I was thinking about bringing my FD out to the meet and after a little detective work I found the following info:
Meet is at O'Charleys in Mooresville at 3pm on the 2nd Sunday of every month - the 11th in Nov of 2007.
Take I-77 to Exit 36. Head west on 150 for about 1 mile and Ocharleys is on the right in front of the Super Target shopping center.
Is this info right?
Can I suggest we park the cars in the very front of the huge empty Super Target parking lot behind O'Charleys and then walk 50 yards over when we head in to eat? That way we can get some better pics.
Also I would suggest putting an informational post like this in the thread around the meet times every month so the new people can find make it without hiring a detective.

Haha. I pulled up and there were maybe 20 cars in front of Wal-Mart. Figured this would be a good place to get some cigs, and when I came back out, everyone was gone. So I drove to the parking lot and maybe 8 people showed up. Guess the cops busted it up in those 5 minutes I was gone
I happened to be uptown last night and went down to Independence to see what was going on. I only had "off of Independence" as the location (thanks alot for the great info Zach!) and after crusing from 277 to 485 twice I gave up at around 10:45pm. You would think you could find a 100 car meet just by looking...
Maybe post a map next time? Or even just a little more info?

Hey Shawnk... I like your initiative! You found the right spot. That is a good idea about parking in the Target parking lot near the O'Charleys. Look forward to meeting you and seeing your FD. It's a lonely FD turnout up here usually.

Well.......most of us poor boys can't afford those high dollar fancy 3rd gens. Just kidding. I probably could have bought a 3rd gen with all the money I have poured into my two first gens! I'm bringing the camcorder out today, so I hope we have a strong turnout. See you guys later!

I will be fashionably late... My Dad came up to spend some time with me for Veterans Day... (Yes, he's a day early; but I will be busy working Monday) We will be hitting up that 30 Days of Night movie @ 1:45pm. Hope you guys are still around when I get out.

yea the beauty of the spot we met up at was you really couldn't see the 100 cars from the street. buuuuut there's always a set of idiots to ruin everything so i don't think we can go out there anymore.
we are going to start having people meet up at our shop now, i'll let you know the details before weeks end.

Before the meet, I was screwing around with the camera, and decided to do a little documentary. I think you guys would approve. Enjoy! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8LnqZVvQWmo

It was good to meet everyone. I had a great time - in fact I am thinking about cancelling my Vegas trip next month to be at the Dec meet.. 
It might make sense to start it earlier next month as it will get dark pretty fast. See you guys in Jan.!
