Damn this meet came up fast! http://www.CustomTacos.com/ubbthreads/images/icons/grin.gif http://www.CustomTacos.com/ubbthreads/images/icons/tongue.gif

For those who attended the last Mission Beach meet, this meet is at that same location. Is anyone in San Daygo willing to show up a lil bit early and stake out the same parking lot for us?

Hmm...what time? i gotta see if i can make it first... i'll let ya know whats up

I would recommend showing up at around 12 or so Jeff.

I'm still looking for a few people to show up early and reserve the spot, anyone volunteer?

what exactly will be happening at this meet. just whanted to know? i live in sd and am a little interested. i could definetly show up around 12. i live like 15 min away.

Well there is gonna be a bunch of Tacoma's, a BIG BBQ, and a HUGE bonfire! We hang out and have a good time bro, you are gonna come cuz I said so! lol http://www.CustomTacos.com/ubbthreads/images/icons/grin.gif

<font color="red"> what time are we suppose to meet there by? I think juan wants me and him to roll out by 10 and head down there..so maybe we a group of us can..hehe <font color="red"> </font color> http://www.CustomTacos.com/ubbthreads/images/icons/grin.gif

I think it'd be sick if we all met in Carlsbad at around 10:30 to 11:00 or so, then we can all take up the 5 South all the way down to Mission Beach!! http://www.CustomTacos.com/ubbthreads/images/icons/smile.gif http://www.CustomTacos.com/ubbthreads/images/icons/grin.gif

Andy,

I can go down early also. What time do you think we should get there to reserve spots, and how many spots should we save? Don't want to get in the way too much, cause then people start asking if you reserved it with the city, or if you have a permit for the meet. http://www.CustomTacos.com/ubbthreads/images/icons/smile.gif

Well I know that the last meet started around that same time and a few people got there at 9 or so. If people start asking about the permit, tell them that you are having a family get together! http://www.CustomTacos.com/ubbthreads/images/icons/smile.gif

I would really appreciate as many people as possible to show up a lil bit early because it's a lot funner if we all are lined up! http://www.CustomTacos.com/ubbthreads/images/icons/grin.gif

I think XTRMTRD used Caution tape to mark off the spots! http://www.CustomTacos.com/ubbthreads/images/icons/shocked.gif

what time do you think you will reach mission. i realy dont whant to drive up to carlsbad then back to towards mission. but realy whant to check out yalls the tacos. put faces to names.

Got it covered, my father-in-law is a contracting superintendent so I can get miles of that tape. http://www.CustomTacos.com/ubbthreads/images/icons/smile.gif I'll head down there around 9, should be there by 9:20 or so. Whoever wants to head down early and help me out let me know. PM me or post back here.

Tacoman - I'd recommend showing up to Mission Beach at around 11:30 - 12:00. Everyone should be there by then. http://www.CustomTacos.com/ubbthreads/images/icons/cool.gif

cool that will give me some time too clean the ride. without wakeing up before the butt crack.

newbie101 pm me let me know wat time you are rollin out of the 626..ill prob meet up with you somewhere and cruise down with you..give me the 411 on the cruise

WTF is mobbing? I didn't know you were a sailor http://www.CustomTacos.com/ubbthreads/images/icons/grin.gif
Is Mpel going? I could never get a hold of the fruity bastard

Ronnie,

what time you guys leaving swc at? You guys wouldn't want to leave early enough to help me out saving spots would you? http://www.CustomTacos.com/ubbthreads/images/icons/wink.gif http://www.CustomTacos.com/ubbthreads/images/icons/grin.gif

dude theirs going to be a grip of people i think. other people outside of this site have heard of this meet. friends of my friends are talking about going. my friend had already heard of this meet through someone else, he doesnt have a comp.

Yeah that is the coolest thing bro! There are a lot of people in SD and LA that own and drive tricked out Tacoma's but they don't come on the site, even though they have been here before!?!?! http://www.CustomTacos.com/ubbthreads/images/icons/laugh.gif

I'm really looking forward to this! I'm gonna detail my baby tomorrow so it will look nice and klean! hehe

I'm looking forward to seeing all my old brotha's and meeting the new ones! http://www.CustomTacos.com/ubbthreads/images/icons/grin.gif http://www.CustomTacos.com/ubbthreads/images/icons/grin.gif http://www.CustomTacos.com/ubbthreads/images/icons/laugh.gif

Nah my sh!t is still locked...damn shaved door handles...no worries though.... is this meet going to a be all an day affair? I'm sparring @ noon that day and probably won't get ready to roll until like 2...and for sure parking is going to be a B I T C H w/ the Pacific Islander thing going on...can somebody save me a parking spot(Andy)?????

I got your back bro! No worries!

<font color="red"> i know the v-dub (vw)guys wont be here this time kuz they are having their eurofest the same day...at button willow or willow springs, damn racers. <font color="red"> </font color>

i invited people from www.club4ag.com (http://www.club4ag.com) . they are cool peeps. hopefully we'll get to see some dope ae86's and ae 92's (i miss those days)

I think I'll have to put on my traffic cop outfit and completely block off the parking lot on the left so we'll have enough space for everyone who's going to be there. The yellow tape just isn't going to be enough. http://www.CustomTacos.com/ubbthreads/images/icons/grin.gif

Take lots of pictures for us poor souls that can't make it down from up north http://www.CustomTacos.com/ubbthreads/images/icons/frown.gif
I would've liked to meet some of the guys from club4ag. Wouldn't mind doing a little DRIFTING myself http://www.CustomTacos.com/ubbthreads/images/icons/grin.gif

hey nate if you leave now they will follow you all can crash at my pad as the wife is out cammping http://www.CustomTacos.com/ubbthreads/images/icons/cool.gif

Well tomorrow is the day and I have a few last things to say.

- My Digital Camara is in Hawaii right now so I can't take any pictures of the Cruise from Carlsbad to MB, or the Meet. Is there anyone from up North that is willing to use your digi camara and take a grip of pics of the Cruise and Meet?

If you want you can just send them to me and i'll resize them and mail em all over to Jeff. I'd really appreciate it.

- When you get to Mission Beach, take up two spot's when you park. We have a good amount of people that are coming after 1 or 2 o'clock and if we don't save em spots, there won't be any spots. I'm taking up 2 for shizzle!

Also Uld_0 is showing up early to reserve us a good chunk of the parking lot and if you can, please do so also. He could really use the help i'm sure!

- Don't forget to bring your own food if you plan on eating there. Onegame99, (Jay) will be bringing a nice and big grill for us all to use so bring as much grind's as you can!!

I'm really looking forward to tomorrow and it should be a fun day! If you have any questions, please post them up or PM me.
