East Coast Mega Meet Part II?

East Coast Mega Meet Part II?
As I sit here reminiscing about the great meet we had almost 2 years ago, I'm wondering if we could ever pull it off again? I think we made a couple of attempts at planning it, but the interest just wasn't there. I know we also planned a mid-atlantic meet that fell apart at the last minute (I didn't even attend) due to some weather issues.
More than likely I'll be making a trip or two up to Baltimore this year and know that might be a good halfway point for a lot of people our members (pretty easy to get to from New York and North Carolina). I would suggest something to encompass the entire East Coast, but I realize it's very doubtful that we'll get people from New England and Florida to drive 500+ miles to meet anywhere. That said, we can get a large portion of our membership to make the 200 mile drive from NYC or Virginia Beach up to B'More, and a lot of people already live in the DC/Baltimore metro area.
Any interest in a Baltimore East Coast meet?
edit:
Another idea has surfaced to perhaps do a track meet at VIR instead of a more social gathering in Baltimore. Obviously there are more logistics (and expenses) involved with organizing a VIR meet, but there may be more interest in that than meeting up in Baltimore. I added a poll to this thread to get more feedback from our membership to see who is interested in what.
Here's a video and thread link to remind everyone how cool it was in Dover, DE!

Instead of organizing a meet, why don't we try to set up a track event at VIR. There will be fewer cars but I'm sure we will get a good group together. You can host the "first ISF track event" we can leave the invitation open to other Lexus drivers as well. It's just a thought.

But that's just my wish list. We'll see what others are interested in doing.

I'm down for both. I would prefer VIR since I could bring the F and my race car....hehe. Either way I can help in any capacity as I call VIR my second home away from the DC metro area.

The good thing about a track meet at VIR is that it could encompass 2 days of fun. Especially if we latch on to the Porsche Club of America. They put on some great festivities to include dinner Friday and Saturday nights with a happy hour before!! Can't beat that!

Well I just bought ISfast's Enkei PF01 18x9.5 +45 wheels today. All I need is to slap some Toyo R888 rubber on them and I will be ready for VIR...oh, and I need to get some new rotors & pads first too.

I was thinking of reaching out to your shop if/when the decision to go to Baltimore was made. Thank you for the offer to host! We are obviously very much in the infancy stage of planning anything, but if the will of the group is to meet in Baltimore instead of VIR, my wish list would be to have a social meetup/picnic where we could all get to know each other and see old friends, take some pictures, then cruise somewhere to a driving event (be it an auto-x or a drag strip... something close by), and then have the night for those that want to stay in town maybe at Maryland Live or somewhere like that. Personally, because I'm a golf nut, I'd probably set up a tee time the next day to play a round before driving back home too. I'd be making a whole weekend out of the trip.
But that's just my wish list. We'll see what others are interested in doing.

vbb if you want to use my set you can. I have the stock wheels with PSS and my aftermarket wheels with RE-11's. You're more than welcome to use either.
