totally agree with joco. and time frame and i do like the idea of this lot, altho it isn't very "attractive location" if ya know what i mean. A lil worried that the city of overland park wont like us either. (chad's experience with them so far)
as soon as we get into permits and such its gunna get expensive. then we gotta bring in sponsors.
im a lil impartial to a location more inner city, but have yet to find ideal location.
plaza/pv/leawood. Town center has a huge lot, old folks home in prairie village hosts car shows all the time, 100 yards to starbucks. And trust me there are plenty of exotics there too.
but with the 135th location we'd at least know that people are willing to drive there (as seen from FF's)
im totally
up for discussion on location. this crucial aspect

the balls are rolling now, im committed to see it through. i'll need help tho
first off gotta
get permission from the property manager for the lot.
as far as getting word out. we gotta grab more than just internet, but that is still a given.
i'd start by
inviting all the car clubs & internet clubs. they have all the enthusiasts, with mailing lists, and they know how to assemble for meets.
help set a standards for behavior and keep it classy
and while I do hate on others choices sometimes, this should be open to everyone, like I said before, as long as their respectful.
i really do want an event that both guys young and old feel comfortable at. imports and hot rods alike.
i'll volunteer to build a website, and design/print/distribute posters to make it look professional.
that kinda gets to the point is this just an informal morning meet, or can we make this bigger than FF?
some pictures to level out all this rambling...........
