Nashville meet

So when's the first Nashville meet? In front of Toys r us may be a good spot to draw some attention.

Are you thinking the Toys R Us in Madison/Rivergate?

Eddie and I have been kind of trying to get this figured out, time has been a bit of an Issue, but we definitely want to get the Nashville chapter up and running. I think some of the guys are wanting to head out to the Super Speedway for the Adrenaline Drags, on the 24th I think?

I've been trying to decide where the best place to try to get everyone together here would be.. I know that there are a few general car get-togethers around Hendersonville. Let me know what you're thinking and I'll try to get it together.

Yeah that's the Toys R Us that I am talking about. It sits on a pretty busy intersection and I often encounter mustangs there on a daily basis on my way to and from work. I also attend the Hendersonville cruise but I never see many mustangs. I have been told that there is a good amount of mustangs that meet at the Murfressboro cruise but I have never been to it(only seen pics). I really miss the guys in Clarksville but it has become harder to make the trip up there but I'm sure if you guys can get something going here people will com out.

What about the TN supersport parking lot in Rivergate. It is on a busy road. Generating can be easy: Ask TN Super, Orielys, car wash places, even a gift food basket, etc. if they would be willing to donate some goods for a 50/50 drawing. Set a specific date for the meet/greet (alternate for rain). Make a generic flyer able to be downloaded onto a computer to print: everyone print them out and when they see a pony in a parking lot, stick a flyer on it. Get out the pots: lunch for a buck cruise in. cook hot dogs and have chips. McD's still loans out those huge water containers... sweet tea and water. All very cheap. Gordon food is right around the corner from there so very easy to go and get more chow. Get Clarksville to come down also with their vehicles... let them look at the ponys and trucks. Show them what we got!! Just a thought... sorry if I overstepped bounds.

No, you're definitely not overstepping your bounds at all man, we need some ideas on how to get the Nashville WH moving.. I'm not sure about flyers on cars, if someone got irritated enough they could raise a large stink over that and it's just not worth the hassle.

I think I have a contact at Tennessee Speed Sport, I'll have to check on it Monday and see if he's still working there.

PM me when yall come up with something. I'm not good at coming up with ideas for where to meet, but I'm a little better at just making time to show up, especially on a Saturday. The Toys R Us sounds good.

OK, never mind the PM thing... I found the "watch topic" feature. LOL

Yeah Autumnsflame had some great ideas to get the buzz going. The only reason I say maybe Toys R Us parking lot is because you can't miss it if you are just passing by, kind of how the guys in Clarksville are on the main drag but Speed Sport sits behind a few buildings and you have to look a little harder. So far I have been passing out flyers when I saw the person in their Stang and they all wanted to know when and where the meeting place was, so that is a good sign.

If anyone has the ability.. go to Hendersonville and put something in the window at the Exxon station on Main street by the apts. Proceed down the road.. Auto Zone and Oriellys are all on the "strip". You can prob get some good 50/50 items. Dont forget.. and trust me I am not knocking it.. but Toys R Us limits you also.. I know it is a family club, and that is what I love about it, but a single person may drive by a toy store. What about another location on Gallatin Rd? Find out who rented to the old HHgreg store and ask if you can park there.

? I though troy was running the Nashville chapter ?

OK guys, I'm really wanting to get something going here, it will have to be after the Tail of the Dragon, I'll be getting back from Gatlinburg on the 27th.

Planning on heading out the the final Adrenaline Drags @ the Super Speedway on the 28th weather permitting ofcourse. Would any of you guys be interested in that?

PS. I think I saw you (normajean) driving down 386 the other day (I think it was last Friday?) heading towards 65S I was in my Stratus R/T so I doubt you noticed.. lol

Yeah that was me, I remember seeing you. I was just getting off work.

As to meeting places in G'ville, how about the old Carmike Cinema North lot Next to TN Speedsport off of Rivergate Parkway? Is it still vacant or have they built something there? It is a large lot, close to the interstate off of 65. Thoughts???

Well folks, it looks like the 28th is a no-go.. I got to checking the Delk web site today and it says all of the remaining races have been called off this year. What a bummer...

He is still more than welcome to help out/take charge/whatever if he would like to, but as far as I know he has had since April/May to get something going and nothing has ever happened.. I just want to get this moving and Eddie has asked me to help out.

I just sent you a PM with my number and you are more than welcome to call me. I believe at the time Eddie told you to give me a call.

First time I have logged on since this discussion thread started. Wondering if anything has been decided? We have 3 Mustangs in the family would love to bring them out!

So what's next for a possible meet and greet in Nashville?

Rain - Rain - Go AWAY!

Keep us posted! Can't wait to meet up with everyone again - we had a blast!

Yeah, I'm pretty hesitant to try and plan anything because of all of this rain.. It's not forecasted to be gone anytime soon. That's been the biggest issue for me.

You guys/gals got any ideas? Anyone feel like going to Dave & Busters, bowling, anything like that? Could be fun..

D&B always sounds good. Also I don't know how far some of you guys live but if the Mt Juliet Cruise is still going on it may be a nice outing too. That cruise meets on saturdays at 5pm at Chic fila in Providence. I think my weekend is clear so I am open to whatever.
