connecticut meet
You know there are a lot of people in the northeast. We should try to schedule a meet in Ct this spring. I know there is a meet coming up but they are all so far away. If anyone has intrest or would like to start a regional club in Connecticut just let me know.

Most of the meets we've had in the recent past took place within the boroughs of NYC, upstate NY, and northern NJ. We did have one meet in CT a couple years ago, about 15 min north of Hartford to be exact (here's the link).
I'd love to have another meet in CT, but it seems that either we never get enough members from this state interested in a meet, or not many are in favor of driving to CT. I usually end up driving 2-3 hrs average to NY/NJ/MA for meets, and 4-5 hrs one time for a meet in Philadelphia, PA. Some people don't like the idea of putting extra miles on their cars, but isn't that the reason why we are here in this car forum, to enjoy driving a Lexus?
Anyhow... I'm down for a meet in CT, perhaps somewhere in the middle ground like around the Hartford or New Haven vicinity. Let's wait for others to be aroused

Thats great at least there is some intrest. I would be willing to go to maryland but that is about when my girlfriend is due to have our baby(aug 31), so I'm thinking that being so far away and possibly having a baby in the car may not be the greatest idea.
I am all for meeting somewhere between new haven and hartford. and I'm sure that we should be able to get something going. Any other CT members intrested???? Even if its just a handful of us...could this be the beginning of the connecticut chapter?

Not a problem man, the guy you met may have been ted 920 (black gs / chrome wheels)
If you are trying to get a shop going in the area, let me know, I can help you would with wheels / tires etc.

Great to see the interest brewing for a CT meet; it's about time we have one just for Lexus here in this state
For those who know me, I'll certainly help out with the organizing of the meet. Maybe we can make this a warm-up meet for the later and bigger EuroPacific meet happening in late May. On that note, let's plan for a CT meet date sometime in late April. How does that sound?

The best deals usually are on packages, when it comes to singles, the savings evaporate!
Hey whatever you guys decide, I'll be there as well
