Hey all, we're going to set up a Socal meet to go to the Import Revolution show at Anaheim convention center (http://www.importrevolution.com). The show is from 4 pm to 11 pm, so I guess it's kind of like a mix of showoff/hot import nights.

For those that want to eat before the show, we are going to go to the Red Lobster in Brea at the Brea mall at 2 pm.

Red Lobster Restaurant
250 Brea Mall,Brea,CA 92821
Phone: (714) 529-0632

If you don't want to eat, you can meet us at the restaurant at around 3:30 pm. Brea mall is on the way to the show in Anaheim for most people (right off the 57 freeway), but in case some people want to meet up in Anaheim, let me know and I will find a good place for us to meet right before the show.

Also, I just checked www.importrevolution.com and the tickets are 25 bucks. Does anyone know if they are any discount flyers?

Let's get a list of who's going. Hope you all can make it. This will probably be the last Socal meet I can attend until October because I will be going out of state.

I'll be in the Socal area on the 25th, I probably won't be able to go to the event but I'll hang out for a while.

I'll try to make it. Not quite sure since it's Memorial Day weekend and I may head out to Lake Havasu. We'll see once the time gets closer. Also can someone confirm these directions from mapquest? Its tells me to take I-5N then take 57N toward pomona then 90 towards Brea. exit Imperial highway and right onto state college blvd? sounds right to those that are more familiar with the area?

i'm up for import revolution, count me in. just curious but why would you guys want to eat @ red lobster?

>just curious but why would you guys want to eat @ red lobster?

Because Red Lobster has the best Pop Corn Shrimp! :9

But yeah! count me in.

Yeah, why Red Lobster, when u guys can eat where I work. Its cheap with a hookup, plus its a buffet! :-) Problem is there's not much meat. :-( Hopefully I could ask for a day-off or work the morning shift. O btw, does anyone have an extra digital camera that I could borrow? Or maybe I could use ur pics for a site that I'm affiliated with. Thanks.

Ewwww I hate seafood, but I think they have chicken too right? I'll try my hardest to be there. I might have an extra digital camera....

You guys suck.... who picked red lobster? I hate seafood, and Im alergic to most of it anyway..... oh welll maybe I will sit and watch u eat.

Hey Fusion, when are you going down to socal and what part? and when are u comming back..... maybe I can hitch a ride with u?? well lemme know K. I can have a friend pick me up when we get to socal... and then drop me back off so I can ride home.

Im gonna take off on Friday the 24th at around noon and i'll be coming back on Tuesday the 28th.

Ok guys, if you all hate Red Lobster, you wanna go somewhere else? Me and James wanted to go to Red Lobster, so if not there, do you have other suggestions? Do you guys want an actual sit-down type of place like tgi friday's or just a fast food place like mcdonalds? I'm open to any suggestions.

Yeah it seems like the majority doesnt like seafood, so it doesnt matter to me where we go. Im pretty flexible and I like TGIFridays... but McDonalds... it just brings back bad memories of working there and knowing the stuff that went on with the food x(. But I'll go to MickeyD's if you guys want to, I still like the food + its cheap.

TGI-F Sounds good to me... Yeah I worked at McDonald's too and ewww.

BJ's is in the brea mall also. I am going to go also.

So, have u guys decided on where to meet yet? How bout Souplantation? Its a 20 min drive from the convention center. Plus, we'll be able to eat for cheap. I could hook u guys up for around 4 something bucks for a whole buffet! Hehe, I dunno if u guys are into the healthy stuff but there's some other good shit like clam chowder. :-) Plus, we might even get to eat for free if the manager that I'm cool with works that day cuz he's kinda into cars too. Just a suggestion...

Can you gimme an address? Then we can see if people want to go there or not?

hell yeah, soup plantation is the best. there pizza is so good.

yeah, i like soup plantation. What city is it in? Because if its 20 mins passing the convention center (for me that is) then Im going to have to meet you guys at the show. Because Im not sure if Im driving or if my friend is driving and I doubt he's going to want to drive 20mins pass the show + back to the show in order to eat. Let me know because i want to go.

If I remember right, I think it is 20 mins past the convention center (for us coming up from the north, 10 and 60 freeways). We can maybe find a place to eat, and meet up in two groups, then all meet somewhere by the convention center and go to the show.

The address is:
11179 Talbert Ave.
Fountain Valley, CA, 92708

Its off the 405 freeway, then take the Euclid exit. Hopefully that's not too far for u guys.

Hey Steve, I'll take u on that offer for an extra digital camera. Mine sucks. Thanks...

Im going to have to pass on the lunch then. I doubt my friend will drive an extra 40 mins (2-way trip) for Soup Plantation. Maybe we can meet up there at the convention center.

yeah, i will probably just meet you guys at the show. I can barely afford the show ($25 bux is rediculous), in addition to gas, food, and maybe parking.

But i might not even be able to go cause i might have to work. Also if i don't have my car back by then (its at RRE getting head gasket swap) i won't go either. So don't count me in for sure.

Extreme autofest is $18 for pre-sale tickets, $25 to display your car(includes ticket), $45 for you car to compete(includes 2 tickets). I think i may just enter my car for $25 just to say my car was in a show.

Ya Ian you should definitely enter your car, and take a ton of pics of it in the show as a memory. We had a post a while ago about what day would be better (autofest, or import revolution) and most people said import revolution which is why we picked that. Let's all just meet by the convention center for us that can't make it to souplantation. It is quite a drive for a free lunch. Thanks for the offer though Mikey. Let's just meet at any fast food place nearby the convention center.

I agree, lets meet nearby the convention center. Where at? any ideas?

Hey all, how about we meet at this Carl's Jr. at about 3 pm on Saturday, May 25. It is right in between the 5 and 57 freeways on Katella Ave (which is the same street as the convention center).

Here is the address:
Carl's Jr Restaurant
2025 E Katella Ave,Anaheim,CA 92806
Phone: (714) 385-1504

Let me know if that sounds good? We can meet up and eat, and leave for the show around 3:30 to 3:45 pm.

Here's a quick map of the Carl's Jr, but look up the directions to be exact. Most of us coming from the 57 will just exit on Katella and head west towards the Carl's Jr. If you hit the 5 freeway, then you went too far. Or vice versa from those coming from the 5 freeway.

hey guys, i was able to get some flyers for import revolution from a friend @ work. she happens to be apart of asian groove and was able to secure abunch of flyers. so far i got 6 from her, but i'm going to need an exact count of how many people are going. its $2.00 off admission price. i'm also not sure if i'll be able to get the 25th off from work. so as of now i'm 50/50 on going.

sup all.. imma try and make it down there, but i dont know if i can get out there that day.. hopefully i can

Np Marcus. Carl's Jr it is then. Hey Clay, save me a flyer please. Hope u get the day off then. Oh yeah, just read ur post in the pits. Cool, ur Pinoy too. Thought u were Chinese.

Damn, few more weeks. I wonder how many ppl will show up. Lets try posting in the other sections. I know it may be off topic if this is posted in the other forums, but some people don't visit the pits or the announcement section, like this guy that I met at school. Aight, that's it. Hey Steve, still waiting for ur reply about the camera...

Hey Clay, can you save me a flyer too? I know its only $2 but im kinda broke right. I'll be a Jack & Box, sound good to me.

Yeah can I have a flyer too?? $2 damn that's like 200 pennys or something..... Can't wait, are we doing anything afterwards?

okay thats 3 flyers saved so far only got 2 more left. i might swing by a shop to get like 10 more.

Ok cool, let's get a list of people going. The show is 4 to 11 pm so I'm assuming it will be kinda like hot import nights. We can cruise to The Block in Orange or Downtown Disney afterwards if people want to go. Both are within 5 minutes of the show.

I'm down to cruz afterwards...

Hey Steve, could I still borrow your extra digital camera? It would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Im not sure if I'll be able to go anywhere afterward but I'll try to. But Im going forsure to the show and to Carls Jr.

Ya the block sounds good especially with free parking. The only thing is that it will be hard to setup a time to meet because we don't know how long we will stay at the show. The show is from 4 ro 11 pm, and I guess how long we stay depends on how good it is. For those that want to meet up afterwards, can you email me your cell number at eclipse804@hotmail.com and then we can maybe call you up an hour or so before we plan to leave the show?

Aight playas, I'll be coming down fo sho. Hey basik, I had to change my travel plan, I couldn't take friday off so im gonna roll out friday after work cause I have to be in socal early saturday morning (good thing I have patience for traffic) and I'm not coming back to norcal untill the 2nd of june.

looks like i'll be able to make it after all. i only have 10 flyers total. couldn't find any more @ the local shops. carl's jr @ 2 or 3, right? looking forward to the meet, laters.

trying my best to get out there... i have some "plans" for the weekend but i think i can make it for the show... marcus, you have mail!

Marcus, you have mail

I'm in Norwalk, a couple blocks from RRE. Anyone feel like giving me a ride? You can come laugh at my empty engine bay :rolleyes

Let me know, I'd really appreciate it.

Hey peeps, can u guys wait up for me? I couldn't get a day off, so the best that I could do was get off at 3. Probably I'll be there around 3:30. Hopefully that's plenty of time to get to the show. If not, I'll call Marcus on his cell and meet up at the show. Thanks.

Hey Mikey, ya 3:30 should be ok. We will leave around 3:45 most likely from carl's jr. And you have my cell just in case. The carl's is just down the street from the convention center.

Hey Dan, I may or may not be able to give you a ride depending on where I am coming from. Hopefully someone from the area can give you a ride?

BTW, does anyone want to carpool into the show. Like after we meet at carl's jr, those that want can carpool together to the convention center and split parking.

gosh guys, i'm stuck in a really hard place right now. my friend just asked me to go to her high school dance performance on the 25th. arGh! i couldn't make the last so-cal meet @ cali speedway because i wrecked my 95rs. looks like i'm gonna have to bail on u guys again. i like her alot :7 hope u guys find some extra flyers, sorry. marcus, i'll e-mail ya a rough sketch of my idea for your logo/site.

maybe next time i'll be able to make it. . . damn this thing they call love.

EDIT: oh if u guys really want the flyers. someone could swing by my place to get them. who ever is closer, in alhambra.

I need a excuse to wash my car ne ways. So lets see whats the deal with getting in ? I see tickets are 20 bucks but you can show your car for like 25 ? and enter a car show contest for 45? is that how it goes ? I am down to roll my car but I do not want it getting funked up in the parking lot or some S%$#. It seems every time I take my car somewhere there is some prick standing over it looking in the windows or something. If I have to park in the parking lot I am just going to roll the montero but where is the fun in that ? haha Let me know guys.

I want to go! I finally have some time because as of today I just finished my last set of finals ever!!!! (that is, unless I flunked one of them - oh repeating sophmore year of med school is not a pretty thought) Who's all gonna be at carl's jr? 3:30 right?

Hey Clay, where exactly is Alhambra? I'm gonna be at Baldwin Park tom. I might be able to pass by and get the flyers. Or maybe someone else could. 2 bucks is still something ya know. :-)

Hey Steve, don't worry about the digicam anymore. Don't wanna get u into trouble. Plus my dad bought this digital camcorder that takes pics too so its cool. Better make do with what I have. Thanks for the offer again.

Hey Ez, you better show up this time! :P Got a lot of questions for ya b4 I start applying for med skl...

alright..most likely im down to go everyone...im from the county of San fernando!!...so i aint that far...but i have alittle decision making to do....either go to that..club soho..legacy..and get wasted and see bitches......or kick it with some cool ass 2gnters with some bad assssss dsm's............can you guys help me?

nm about my last post above ^. i'm an idiot theres no way in hell i'm gonna miss this meet just for some girl i hardly know. count me in for carl's on sat!

Well i would love to go but I NEED to finish my Turbo install this weekend (changing from a custom setup((need to put this turbo on my ol' ladies Explore again)) to a star stage 2) so i am going to be busy but i am thinking i will be done by late afternoon, so everyone wear something bright so i can spot you when i come late!!!!
