View Full Version : Thoughts on possibly having another Marina BBQ towards the end of summer?

Well this weekends BBQ was pretty fun, smaller than what was hoped for, but more showed up than i expected on account of the weather...

i did have alot of guys comeing up and asking me if we would have another over the summer...

so basically, im just trying to get a good estimate of how many people would be down for another one say late July to possibly mid to late August and hopefully get the same amount of people we had on the attendie list as this past BBQ but also hopefully get the whole group to come without worries of the rain keeping alot of people from comeing...

not to mention, if we started planning about this early, i could rent out an entire parking lot for us, as well as do some things i thought of while we were there such as, bringing some picnic tables and chairs, possibly a spare grill, and an even more detailed list of whos bringing what....as well as signs and IN DETAIL directions on where to go since alot of you guys got lost:lol:

discuss..

I'm down. My car was not even close to ready, I was complete bucket status with stock exhaust and all :gaysex: . Dang smog, I'd love to meet in 2 months or something. Then the weather will hopefully be better, and mabyee everyone will open their hoods. My buddy and I are working puttin a custom webber holder in his spare tire area for the next meet, so we might bring a bigger grill.

great idea mikey,,,only thing is, is that last year they had the slo meet in the summer,,,so make sure we set everything up be4 that one so we have more people commin to ours (altho id prob go to both of them if on diff. days) ,,, but ya, you know im down and prob tommy too,,,also again if you need some help settin everything up or whatnot, holla!

i dont think another SLO all cali meet has been made....that was actually last year in march, and ive heard no word on that happening again this year..

june would be cool, but i was only thinking july because we have jamie moving here in june, and itd be cool to have him come along to a big meet with marcus frost's old mkiv :D

changing the location seems like an ok idea...but i still say keep it in the bay area...since thats pretty much where the bulk of the norcal guys reside...maybe los gatos? santa cruz?

True, the short time on the highway was probly the best. I really want to put down a show/meet in downtown (relative term) Sonoma. It really would be more of a show off, if you know the park area in the plaza I'm talkin about. They've had a ton, and I've been to a few. Vintage racing, cobras (there were over 20!) and fuel efficient.
But yeah, I'd be up for another BBQ or anythin else.

How tightly do you define Bay Area? Just San Francisco and Oakland? I've always considered myself bay area. I can usually get to SF in 48 minutes (The length of Gree Day's dookie).

san leandro is the farthest Bay area guys would go.. anywhere farther consider LA / Sac area.

so it is a circle like "bay bridge.. down to 880S.. then 92 back to foster city.. at last 101 N up back to bay bridge." that's the bay area

There ia a bumpy road leading to the Hunter's point park. But, very nice view (ignore the semi-getto area at the back of the hill). In general, the view is very nice.

So today i was talking to my buddy Frank over at Racetune and i told him that there has been speculation of having another summer bbq meet nearing the end of the summer.. he said that would be great but lets do something different since we've already had a meet at the park already.. so the suggestion is how about we have a BBQ supra meet at Racetune?.. they have a great big parking lot that we can use and at the same time the shop will be closed for business that day for us to have our very own private dyno day.. then we shall let the betting begin.. throw down cash to make a pot for each car that dynos.. whom ever guesses the right whp gets the cash.. i know Frank has a few bbq grills just sitting there from previous parties we've had there.. hell maybe even have a small cruise in the morning b4 we go to the bbq meet at Racetune.. if this sound slike a good idea let me know.. i'll relay things to frank and we can try to set things up.. lets try to make this meet as big or even bigger then the last.. i want more memorable meets.. something ppl will referance to in the furutre even.. C'MON LETS DO THIS.. :bigthumb:

.. he said that would be great but lets do something different since we've already had a meet at the park already.. so the suggestion is how about we have a BBQ supra meet at Racetune?..


of course he's gonna say that... free publicity and $$$ for dyno pulls...

ISIS
05-25-2005, 06:10 PM
I will def try to make it. Frank is a great guy and he would be more than willing to do this.
Set it up, supras only, no 240s, hondas, ect.
Mike

95jza80tt
05-25-2005, 09:09 PM
if Franks suggestion is solely based on money instead of him beeing a big fan of supras then he'd most likely rather not have the meet at his shop then.. as he is shutting down the shop business wise for the meet instead of working on cars that day.. if this was a ploy to try and make money i'd think that he would rather hold a open public dyno day rather then keeping this a private affair for supras and those approved by forum members that don't own supras.. that is.. but it isn't, as Frank has always loved supras and is in fact trying to buy one at the moment as a shop car to build as a project.. wheather or not you would like to do business with Frank on the side is your business aside from this meet.. we both just thought that having the meet at his shop would be fun since the last few parties that we held there were a blast.. so with all that said i think i'll just start a new thread about this meet when i get more information after talking to frank about this, but i do believe that you guys should set a date that we can all agree on.. so lets try to lock in a date...

Brian

MaliCali
05-25-2005, 11:11 PM
i remember meeting frank for a short few seconds at the bbq...hes a cool guy..

for setting the date...id say a saturday or sunday late in july...

as for the plans....why not have the meet start at racetune...at say 9 or 10 in the morning.....and then later on in the afternoon go for a nice mountain cruise, since we didnt get to do one at the past bbq :D

-mike

MoMoSupra80
05-26-2005, 01:09 AM
hey brian. .. i helped frank cooked so many burgers and dogs at the last bbq. ask him for some discount on my dyno pull haha :D







btw.. frank is a cool guy. i dont think he is doing this for $$ and rep for his shop.

95jza80tt
05-26-2005, 01:26 AM
sounds good but the reason why i suggested the cruise in the mornin is just because there should be less cars on the roads in the mornin.. i'll see what i can do about pricing for dyno pulls and get the rest of the details when Franks not so busy..

Brian

05-26-2005, 03:05 AM
If its in July, I might be able to pop on by. I remember coming up for Frank's grand opening of Racetune. Nice turnout and even though Frank was VERY SICK that day, he made every effort to make sure everyone had a good time with setting people up on the dyno or answering questions. Frank's a standup guy and I think it'd be a great idea to set up a meet at Racetune.

05-26-2005, 01:01 PM
hey way to go Bri,,,nice suggestion,,,ya i remember the grand opening and hearing good things about it,,,also i think the whole dyno/bbq is a great idea cuz im kinda curious to see where im at now :D ,,, but talk to Frank and i guess just see what day is good for him in end of July,,,cuz with enough time im sure all of us can request it off and free ourselves

ok so i talked to frank and he says that the dyno pulls will be $50 for 3 pulls with a/f and boost logged and he can give you prints for the runs upon request.. i didn't takl to him on a specific date yet but i was thinkin july 23rd(sat) or july 24th(sun) for the meet.. thats planned far enough so that everyone should be able to get the days off.. and guys can get ready for the meet.. tell me what you think..
