Ohio Zilvian meet - Zilvia.net Forums | Nissan 240SX (Silvia) and Z (Fairlady) Car Forum

Somnambulist · 07-25-2008, 09:41 PM

So there's definitely enough people and interest. Let's make this happen. We definitely need a central location. So I'm thinking Columbus, obviously.

Now I'm not in Columbus, so if there IS anyone there, come up with some ideas on where we can meet that we won't get in trouble and they would be welcome to have us. Perhaps a cruise in at a food place. We (cincy guys) have good luck with car meets at food places because we give them good business.

Now we definitely need to figure out a date. What days are good for everyone? Weekends? Weekdays? Some time in August sounds good. That way we get enough time for people to request off and/or spread the word.

Edit: You can choose more than one day to vote for.

sxshep · 07-25-2008, 09:44 PM

sunday nights i dont work, so my vote goes there haha

boosted98gst · 07-25-2008, 11:49 PM

I am not sure what places are good anymore, columbus is a real hot spot right now with cops after the big street racing bust they have a few weeks back. now any place with more then 10 cars cops are all over and, with the 5 deaths from racing this year prolly better to stay away. I also say sunday night

slow_sr20 · 07-26-2008, 06:36 AM

i'm game to meet wherever, dayton, cinci, or columbus. they closed the hooters on my end of town in dayton, so it would be a great excuse to go to hooters

Dirty Habit · 07-26-2008, 08:52 AM

Columbus sounds great. Sat or sun nights too. I work every other weekend so I just need to grab someone to cover my shift if needed.

My grandparents own a cabin out near hocking hills. Its small but theres a ton of space on the lawn for parking and tents and a bon fire. Also got a boat.
The roads are a blast, non stop curves, elevation changes. We could do a meet there sometime, do some driving then get out on the boat/bonfire/get loaded...etc.

Z33dori · 07-26-2008, 10:25 AM

yea Columbus is a nice central location. it works...

I'll post this up on ohiodrifting.com and im sure someone can post it up on dayton240sx.com

lets do it......

Very true, but I still think we'd be able to do it. We arrive, bullshit in the parking lot for a little while, then go grab some food and whatnot inside. If cops have a problem with that, then so be it.

That sounds fun! But it's not very central.. lol. Perhaps we can do that if we have a good success with this first one.

slothonaleash · 07-26-2008, 04:09 PM

You guys aren't thinking downtown columbus are you?

The cops, roads, construction, and lunatic bike riders are terrible haha. (I recently hit a biker that basically threw himself in front of my car and is now trying to scrape up the insurance money... he got a ticket for it though and has been hit 3 times in the past year.)

I've seen a taco bell down there on High st. that gets a lot of donk, ricer, and biker meets if it is what you're thinking, though haha.

And the cops down here are generally cool. I ride a couple inches from the ground with a buddy club spec II and I don't even get looks.

Haha I guess not. I don't think I was specifically thinking downtown Columbus.. But perhaps in one of the outlying suburbs or something.

slothonaleash · 07-26-2008, 06:30 PM

Hmmmm..... there's a buffalo wild wings about fifteen minutes from where I live. Tons of parking because it's in a mall square type deal. Trouble would be that it's always packed during the times we would think about going, but it's a viable option. Just so long as there are no major sporting events taking place at the time haha.

nathancolston · 07-26-2008, 08:02 PM

im down i too vote for sun night. any night i guess iwork till 6 pm. c bus would be cool wouldnt mind getting out of dayton!

boosted98gst · 07-26-2008, 08:17 PM

I live in marysville outside its a small suburb of columbus its 13 miles north west of dublin ohio and has good food spots and places to chill with out the heat of columbus right now.

Somnambulist · 07-26-2008, 09:24 PM

That might be good.

What about Springfield, Circleville, or Grove City? Anyone know?

Z33dori · 07-27-2008, 12:22 AM

idk maybe Beavercreek... or better yet

at Kilkare lol make it a drift event lol

Grove city sucks circleville sucks, springfield is alright but for the guys coming from north is way more south then some will want to go.

Dirty Habit · 07-27-2008, 11:53 AM

preferably a central place where anyone can get off a highway and not have to travel 20 mins to arrive at. Someplace like wings or whatever where we can sit down and bullshit without being hassled by staff or cops. I guess thats what everyone else just said..lol.

Either way as long as we stay civil I dont think we'll catch much heat.

boosted98gst · 07-28-2008, 02:23 AM

I can set it up at a local bw3 has lots of parking ect ect

*Rick-95ZE* · 07-28-2008, 09:23 AM

Saturday NIGHTS works best for me... Friday nights & Sat Mornings & afternoons are Imposable for me until after October 19 (Columbus Marathon!) As my training runs (& prep for) take up allot of time..

P.s. Any one from Columbus have plans to attend the Marathon? (running or plans on being a spectator?)

Springfield is more west than anything.. It's even with Columbus, just west of it..

Agreed. I don't plan on going to Columbus and racing or anything like that.

Where are you located again?

nxpoweredsr20 · 07-28-2008, 11:34 AM

im down for whenever....i know a sil80 and a rhd rps13 that would love to go too

dom0988 · 07-28-2008, 02:21 PM

Any time on a sunday would be best for me.

As for a place to meet.. Why not Quaker Steak at Polaris? It's right off I-71 and they are pretty cool as long as people aren't dumbasses. Hooters in Columbus is all around nasty IMO not even worth it.

This place is ricer infested and they got everyone from columbus racing kicked out. I think they only do bike week now on tues, and car gathering are not welcome anymore.

I am located in marysville ohio northwest of columbus around 13 miles outside of dublin(were honda of america is), yes your right springfield is more west then anything, but it would be unfair for the guys coming from cleveland area's unless they do not mind. Springfield is a busted ass town (no offense to anyone that lives there) but its just has way too much shit going on, and not good for car meets. Doing a nissan meet will be somewhat hard unless everyone does come, back in 2001 we seemed to have more nissans around. We should just set it up to where any car can come as long as they respect all the rules. Columbus has a huge scene now with many nice cars, it would be nice to get somthing where more people come.

I mean you'd be surprised if it was a Nissan meet. Just in Cincinnati, the past two years we've had Nissan meets and had a good turnout both times.

I say open it to ANY Nissans and/or Nissan powered.

I went to one in dayton area 2 years ago and maybe 15 cars showed up, it was so boring.
