DFW TGO Gathering & Car show 8/21/10

Here's the details
August 21st, 5PM
Rosa's cafe
2200 Precinct Line Road Hurst, TX 76054
http://www.rosascafe.com/home

Car Show- http://www.christianclassiccruisers.com/

If you have a car you want to show, there's a $10 registration fee. Otherwise, just come on out and look at some great cars

I like the idea of finding a local car show that we can invade as a group and show off our cars. To raise the public perception that 3rd gens are snanked out whitetrashmobiles, we can put a dozen of the groups nicest cars out there, and really make a nice showing


If you can't make the car show at all, come on out for dinner, and I'm sure we'll spend some time looking at the cars in the parking lot at Rosa's too. I'd like to get a nice crowd there, and we can talk about future gatherings, including events we can do as a group, and if we want to move the meeting places around the metroplex, encouraging people that are not centrally located to try a meeting

For future meetings, lets think about catching a track, a demolition derby or whatever anybody can come up with. Bring some ideas and speak up.

let me know if you can make it, and I'll see if we can get a room reserved at rosa's if we're going to have a nice turnout.

I will be there for sure! I would love to see DFW TGO guys out-number all of the other cars there. We mixed it up in Houston like this. It's cool to see other hot rods and get to see plenty of third gens!

glad you can make it, and yes, I've heard some great things about that place, I thought we would do something different than burgers and BBQ this time

Awesome guys! This is going to be fun. I know the Texas F-body group used to do this a few years ago, but it's time to show off the Camaro/Trans Am 3rd gens again

We'll try and make it. Hard to plan that far out but don't see any conflicts at the moment. Although I am boycotting anything mexican since everyone else is boycotting Arizona. I can always drink beer instead.

Re: DFW TGO Gathering & Car show 8/21/10

nice gathering ya'll. For those of you that missed dinner, that was a really nice place to eat. Good prices, and at 5:00 it was empty enough that we could throw together as many table as we wanted to. As it was not that many people showed up to eat, but for those that did, it was fun. It was also nice seeing a good amount of 3rd gens lined up next to each other at the show. If I can ever find the time to get a couple more things done to mine, I'll be right there with you
