Come on people! Fill out the form!! I only got like 8 submissions so far :(.

Then again it is 6 weeks away.....its not super urgent to fill it out now, but it looks more appealing to people who might want to come :)


I'm pretty sure this meet will surpass 20 cars and 28 attendees!!

[ZoomZoomH]

AS OF TODAY we have 28 cars signed up for the meet! :eek:

If you're in the Northern VA, Maryland, DC region, come sign up and join us!!!!!

[derrick1623]

come on people...get it together, and get your asses out to a meet, lets make it huge, not just big...hehe

[MP3_PR5]

I agree with Derrick, this meet needs to be big!!!!!! Nice to see so many already!!! Let's keep signing people! :D

[upsman]

However only sign up if you are coming for sure. WE dont need people "saying" they will show up and then not do it when the time comes.

Come on out. It should be alot of fun. I know that I'am excited! It will be really nice to talk to everyone with the same interests in the Pro.

This is one case where "the more the merrier" is true

[wildman]

I think we should roll up there in style. ne1 want to caravan? email me.

ps
Gro just doing me job keeping this thread on top.

[derrick1623]

i'm sure us maryland'ers will "caravan down" just EVERYONE... make sure if you sign up, you show...one less reason to bitch about meeting up!!!!!

[Gro Harlem]

THIRTY FRIGGIN PEOPLE NOW REGISTERED (havne't updated it yet b/c i'm lazy..but have hte emails in my inbox LOL).

HOLYEEEE SHIT!!!

I'm guessing by the time it rolls around, there will be over 40 registered. Even if we have like a 25% no-show rate like last time, we'll still have 30 people in the end :)!!!!

I'm going to call mazda tommorrow and see what i can do for sponsorship (maybe get a MSP to come along from a dealer).

[derrick1623]

wil... see about some "promo-items", like the cali meet got?

[JMS'sMSP]

Count me in I am like 10 min away.

[derrick1623]

Mabey since the park is so close to a Mazda dealership they will do something for us????:confused:

[Gro Harlem]

The bastards haven't replied to me yet........screw em!!

I know a guy who got in touch with a Arizona Mazda USA rep who is going to refer me to the local rep and see what they can do.

Apparently he told me that "mazda isn't interested in the east coast as much b/c of the smaller aftermarket, so i'm not sure if they'd be up for it"

If thats true mazda needs to wake the fuck up. If anything the import scene on the east coast is BIGGER than the west coast. How many cali members are here compared to east coast? I don't see as many if you get my drift. That tells you that there are MORE protege enthusiasts on the east coast. Maybe there are more honduh and nissan ppl on the west side, but i don't think thats the case with the Protege'.

anyways........lets hope we get a sponsor. That would kick ass so much. We'd get like mazdaspeed tshirts, mugs and hats and maybe more!!

BTW: The count is now 39 people!!!!!!

[Kooldino]

i MAY go...I'll keep you posted.

[Gro Harlem]

44 proteges registered and about 70 total people!

[MP3_PR5]

Damn, nice to see so many people and so many proteges!!! :eek: Now, let's just hope everyone shows up like their suppose to!!! :D

[20ESGUY]

Hey gro, looks like the submit for the form isn't working...every time i try to submit it IE tells me the page can't be found. BTW anyone from the hampton roads or NE carolina area that wants to catch up and ride the route together let me know, I live right off of RT460 which is right on the way up.

[ZoomZoomH]

20ESGUY, there's been a nagging problem with redirection of the pages after form submission, but res assured that your email has been successfully sent to Wil (groharlem)

someone didn't know about it, and clicked on the send button like 12 times, and stuffed his inbox with many many sign-up emails! :D

[20ESGUY]

more than likely that was me....sorry about that, i didn't realize that it would email it to gro even if it didnt find the page.

[Gro Harlem]

naw I think you emailed it to me like 2 times....no biggie. The other guy just wouldn't stop until i replied to his email saying "STOP IT DAMMIT" lol!!

I think i got around 12 or so from him....pretty funny. I think the form is fixed now, but not 100% sure since everyone has different browsers and settings.

9:30? hot damn that's early :D

but, since you are planning to get there so early, you can help me set up when we get there :D

where do you want to meet to head down together? I say somewhere where we can get right onto the beltway, how about the Circuit City at Tysons Corner Mall (Tysons I)?

[wildman]

I'm just looking for some interest. It does start at 10am. If you all want to arrive later thats cools too. Nothing is set in stone, just let us know.
I was thinking FairOaks Mall, but its open.

Gro:

If I/we actually leave that early, then no problem helping out.

[Kooldino]

I think we should all raid the mazda dealer nearby. That way they see how serious we are. :-)

There's a good chance that I'll go.
ANYONE ELSE from NJ GOING???? PM ME!

Also, if anyone has directions from NJ or Philly, that'd be nice.

[Kooldino]

WTF is the ZIP CODE for Leesylvania State park???

[Gro Harlem]

[ZoomZoomH]

2001 Daniel K Ludwig Drive , Woodbridge, VA 22191-4554

all is set for MAPP, see you all bright and early tomorrow!!! :D
