Great initiative, Zuben. However - mayhaps we need to look at another location, before worrying about the dates?Of the people responding: me(GMJAP), Zuben, damronjr, MoonDogg, Bud_one, and NascarXprtone is from LA, 2 from North Dallas, 2 from Houston area, and 1 from San Antone.Sounds like a Dallas area meet might the most centrally located place that might allow everyone to come. Would be the least total driving, I think, especially for MoonDogg coming from LA.Thoughts?

[NascarXprt]

SA has a more direct route from H-town The Big D, and LA. its theperfect place to hold a rally.

[bud_one]

So have we settled on San Antonio??

[ZubenElGenubi]

Yep...San Antone it is. Home of the Alamo, the Spurs, Spanish Missions, the best TexMex food, HEB, the Riverwalk, SeaWorld, and Fiesta Texas.Just an excuse for a bump!

[bud_one]

And the good food at "Blanco Cafe"

Hmmmm, sounds like maybe we should book some tables at Blanco Cafe (if we ever get this to happen).

[ZubenElGenubi]

Voting/nominations for dates are closed. I was certainly hoping for more response than shown. I am of the conviction that there just isn't enough interest to hold a meet in Texas. You folks are going to have to convince me otherwise...

[bud_one]

As big as Texas is and we don't have enough people for a meet....???What's up with that...?? Sure is disapointing....

[MoonDogg]

Well guys don't plan around me... Yall pick a date (as long as on the weekend and not next weekend) I am good to go... Still gotta discuss with wife though.. its a 7hr. drive if no traffic.. and it will cost almost $50 in gas one way!! so.... It's still a toss up for me... but I don't plan that far ahead so any date's are pretty good for me..

[GMJAP]

Maybe we should just pick a date and go from there...

[NascarXprt]

Zuben i am still trying to get ahold of GUNN and if not lets try and have it in an empty parking lot with a lot of people traffic. like movie theaters BLANCO CAFE etc....

[GMJAP]

GUNN?(and if i don't type this extra bit it won't let me post b/c everything is capital letters....)

[NascarXprt]

GUNN is one of the dealer ships here in SA and the one i got my car from.

[Kountry]

gmjap is right, just schedule a meet and see if people will come. if anything, just have a local meet where there are the most people to get things going.

[bud_one]

I second Kountry's proposition...

[ZubenElGenubi]

Okay, how about the first weekend in October (Oct 1-2)? Maybe it'll cool off a bit by then. I'm still in for San Antone.

[NascarXprt]

Thats good im in for that lets set another poll for yes or no for that weekend.

[Kountry]

yeah man, if you like i could probably get some matrixes to go too

If we nail this date and get a meet location, I'll post a notice at matrixowners.com....Hey! I just noticed that kountry is the Texas moderator over @ matrixowners.com. He should do the dirty work!

[Kountry]

haha nice try, but i haven't had much success with planning meets either.i have a question, matrix:vibe as corolla:___? they use the have the geo/chevy prisms, but they don't make them anymore right? i'm just brainstorming for ideas to make it a bigger meet.

[ZubenElGenubi]

Quote, originally posted by Kountry »i have a question, matrix:vibe as corolla:___?...nothing. The Matrix/Vibe line is the only joint-venture between Toyota and GM (I think).I've got the weekend on my calendar and might even drive up Friday afternoon. I'll try to contact GUNN as well via e-mail and see if they're up to sponsor some parking space.Which "Blanco Cafe" are you all talking about? There's a million of 'em in San Antonio...

[ZubenElGenubi]

I just sent Gunn Pontiac an e-mail request to sponsor our rally on October 1. (You got a mention in the e-mail as well, Cole). I'll call them in a few days if I don't hear back.BTW, here's an aerial shot of the dealership...looks huge:

[NascarXprt]

We took it off b/c Zuben could not make it the 1-2 but it may be the 8-9 or the 15-16 of October. but there will be a meet here in SA.
