I could make a Montgomery trip if it gets moved there. Its a straight shot for me on I65 and would only take about 4 hours.
Depending on when the meet is, I know that Montgomery has a baseball team (the Montgomery Biscuits) and there are some decent places to eat in the area. I pass thru about twice a year when I visit friends in Mobile, AL.
As of right now, it is officially moved to Montgomery.
Once I hear back from the racetrack we can talk date, and then I can create a event page on Facebook(where I think most of our participation will come from) and announce it all over the web.
I changed it from a Jbody meet to a GM meet, but we WILL NOT turn away non-GM vehicles.
If you guys and ladies think it would be more welcoming being called something like 2013 South Eastern Tuner's Meet or something more generic then 'GM' I am all for it.
I'm hoping my Wife will be able to bring her 99' Beetle, and a few friends have Import who want to come as well.
agreed. thats how I have always ran our bash. no car is turned away, no person left out, but we pretty much kept our advertising to the target audience and let them know their friends are welcome to tag along.
Thanks so much for the consideration and moving the location, i will do my best to get as many as possible out to this event. Let me know when a date is set. Is there a time of year we are aiming for ?? ive always thought mid to late spring was very nice in the south
and just after tax season people should have plenty of travel funds available lol

I like the idea of keeping the name GM, but letting it known for all. I have done the same for monthly meets in Jacksonville Fl.
Scott so far as for time frame people have been saying March-April. I think it will also depend on the track.
If baseball was in that would be cool to catch a game.

march april is great travel weather down here ! especially for those of us with no ac
and i agree on keeping the GM in the event name, needs more spice though.. alabama have any nicknames names we could include ?
OH I wish the reaceway would return my call so we could decide on a date lol
I'm perfectly fine with moving it over so we can include the Texas crew. The more, the merrier
I don't think the drive will be too bad, probably about another 3-4 hours or so. I still want to aim for mid-March if possible, though, because as Scott stated, some of us won't have a/c and the cooler weather will be much appreciated.

Yeah no A/C is fine here in the mountains but other places, not so much lol
Oh c'mon someone say something don't let the flame go out lol
-says something-
May the odds be ever in you favor.....
I can definitely spread the word around to all the other car guys I know in and around my area and try to increase some attendance. That time of year should work great for me as I'll be done with school in december and hopefully have some extra money saved up for a Vacation by then.
my guys are getting excited..but as usual need a date to be certain. after we get a date we need to spread the word...ALOT..get ahold of all the club organizers..cobalts too..i know theres several big groups in that area alone
Yeah I'm going to try calling the racetrack Monday as e-mails seem to not be working,
getting a date is probably going to be difficult this early. So i understand your pain. I have had the same problem every time i planned an event at track.
HEY whats going on with this !!!! haha dont let this die guy !
We should probably form a committee for this on facebook or something
Stalling on the raceway giving me dates for when they start T&T dates.
whats your guys facebook links...
I'm still watching. I have been spreading the word also.

I've got a event page made up, but haven't made it public because we dont have a date yet.
Also made a south eastern group page as well, if you send me a friend request I'll add you to the group.
