    2. Iowa @ Mid America Motorplex raceway- http://www.midamericamotorplex.com/2006/default.asp
    3. Gatlinburg, TN

    I'd think somewhere middle east coast. Except for the cali guys thats pretty close to everyone. (close being a relative term)
    If we are gonna do one we should do it big and have it a week long or so I'd think. It'd be nice to include a car show day w/ cookout or catering, maybe a track night, a big cruise, and then maybe something not really related to cars where we can all have fun. I'm sure a few of us will have the women and they would probably like something fun to do too..lol
    idk I'm just brainstorming out loud.

      2012?

      personally id pick a date and a location and then leave the idea alone till about 3 months before then. its to hard to keep people hyped up over an entire year.

              We could always hit up EECMM in force! That'll be mid east coast, usually around Tennessee... and it's already all planned out for us :D lolol

              no but seriously, it's a good idea if we can't figure anything out otherwise.

                    How about we meet up a little earlier than EECMM? like a couple days or so and we can do some things with just us. A little time to acquaint ourselves and whatnot. And time to do any little last minute things.

                      i dont care where it is...by 2012...i should more than likely be able to afford a little trip like this. i'm down for where ever. but yes..i would say spring time or fall time. when its not so dam hot n peoples cars arent gonna over heat on accident. dont want any far from home breakdowns.

                      i'd deff help pitch in for a hog roast.... shredded bbq pork sandwiches would be wayyyyy bomb!!

                      as far as location..yeah....somewhere middle of the country to make it easier/ fair to the further out regions. st louis??? kansas city?? davenport/ quad cities area??? knee-braska...

                        why not just do it at mazdafest next year? its already a massive turn out, and even if 3 people show up, they wont regret it. plus that way there's already a ton to do also.
