I hear that. Just found out that the insurance company is going to total my car. Now I dont know if I will have enough money left over to fix it after I buy it back. I am also debating a 3.5l swap or maybe a 2k0 swap and just getting a carbon fiber hood. Looks like I will be pimping the golf ball to Maxus.

Matt only mentioned it as a last result if he could not find a delarship to host it.
He's stil lworking on the Dallas location, which would make it easier for the guys coming from out of State, thats the main reason for Dallas.

SOONR1, give me some names and numbers if you would please. I'm looking for a place in Arlington area and I know one of the Bankston dealerships is in Irving.

but if all else fails I'm moving it here... I have the contacts to make it happen here... we'll see tho.. SOONR1 and a couple other guys are making some calls in Dallas to hooks us up with a dealer there.

Houston is NO further then Dallas. If anything, its probalby closer and the road is waaay better. Going to Dallas, I35 is full of potholes and cracks, not to mention its only one lane due to the construction.

Its a shame, guys are driving from CHICAGO to attend, but some Texas guys dont wish to drive 2.5to3hrs.

How are we supposed to represent our Texas side of the ORG if we cant even get guys to drive a couple of hours to attend a NATIONAL meet.

I'm with you, we have guys coming from Phila, PA/ Cali / and Chicago and your complaining about Austin to Houston. That's sad. The guys from Texas should have the biggest representation IT'S IN OUR STATE. Let's not jump to conclusions just yet b/c as of right now its still in Dallas !!

Don't get too jumpy yet guys.. I'm wpending 3-4 hours a day working on this stuff trying to get everything scheduled on time. I'm having a fun time trying to track down a dealership willing to host the event, but we're talking with Trophy right now. Courtesy was the plan originally, and they pulled out because the Holiday Inn next to them is booked that weekend. courtesy doesn't even have enough parking for their own employees, let alone 100+ Maximas.


As for the 350Z guys and other stuff coming out (mentioned on the first page of this thread), that's all fine and dandy, but we WILL have separate parking for the non-Maximas.

What I'm planning is an actual judged car show for Maximas only. trophies and awards and whatnot. for those of you with ugly cars (like mine) that don't want to enter the show portion, I'll have another section of parking set up for Maximas only. Next to that, I will have a section for non-Maximas that want to come out and show off.

several members from HNE and DNE (houston and Dallas Nissan Enthusiasts) will be attending, and many of them are not Maximas... So that is in the plans...

Also see the track event stuff for you guys that want to do the road course. It's going to be a day earlier than originally planned, so you'll need to roll up on thursday night, or asscrack of dawn Friday morning if you want to be a part of that.
It's in College Station, so it won't be as bad a drive for you SA and Austin folks.. drive up there and hang for the night, then head to dallas after it's over.

I'm working on all that part.

the track entry fee isn't the only part of the weekend. I'm sure there will be many people that skip that part...
the car show will cost a little bit, but basically just the cost of putting on the event- trophies, lunch, t shirts, other related costs.. the show itself is optional as well.

so you can come down and spend next to nothing for the trip if you just want to come and hang out. If you want to participate, then you can spend a ton of $ if you want.

Thanks for the work Matt, seems like quite the headache. The more people the better but I think it is good how you will seperate between the carshow/maxima/other. Should be cool to see so many Maxima's in one spot. Good luck getting a site figured out.

Flav 24/7 is right. You still have time to get ready for Maxus. There are quite a few of us leaving here from San Antonio, so just roll up there with us.

I'm going to close this thread.. I've made a few stickes for caravans from various sides of the country. If you don't see yours listed (i.e. SoCal, midwest, etc), start a new thread and I will sticky it for you.

that way we can keep the various caravans organized and not have 15 groups trying to organize in one thread.
