http://www.mnsportcompacts.net/forum/showthread.php?t=20174 http://www.mnscc.net/eventreg/eventreg.cfm Yes, there is going to be a Fall Meet!! W00t! The meet will take place on Saturday, September 24th, from Noon until 5pm, at Staring Lake Park, in Eden Prairie. Here is a map: http://maps.yahoo.com/maps_result?e...ew=1&name=&qty= There is a lot of construction on 494, so these directions may not be 100%. I'd suggest printing off a good map: From the North: Take 494 S to Hwy 5 West. Take Hwy 5 W for .5 miles to Prairie Center Drive. Take a right, (south) on Prairie Center Drive for 1.5 miles or so to Hwy 212 (Flying Cloud Drive). Take a right on Hwy 212 W for 3 miles or so to Pioneer Trail (Cty. Rd. 1). Take a right on Pioneer Trail. Staring Lake Park is on Pioneer Trail on your right. From Crosstown Hwy 62: Exit onto Hwy 212 West (Flying Cloud Drive). take Hwy 212 W 4 miles to Pioneer Trail (Cty. Rd. 1). Take a right on Pioneer Trail. Staring Lake Park is on Pioneer Trail on your right. From the East: Take Hwy 494 W. Exit onto Hwy 212 West (Flying Cloud Drive). take Hwy 212 W 4 miles to Pioneer Trail (Cty. Rd. 1). Take a right on Pioneer Trail. Staring Lake Park is on Pioneer Trail on your right. From the South: Take Hwy 169 North to Pioneer Trail (Cty. Rd. 1). Take a left onto Pioneer Trail. Take Pioneer Trail for 4 miles or so to Hwy. 212 (Flying Cloud Drive). Cross Hwy 212. Staring Lake Park is on Pioneer Trail on your right. The snow is just around the corner, so this will probably the last meet like this for 2005. So chime in if you are planning on coming and spread the word. later, Curt EVENTS: 1. Sponsors will be on hand 2. Raffles 3. CoTM to the first 6-8 to register at the meet 4. Cleanest Car Comp - no Curt will not be allowed to enter...nor Ami again lol 5. BBQ - 2tix for 5$ gets you 2 food items, chips and soda - BRING SMALL BILLS WE ARE NOT A BANK 6. Various other contests 7. Meet the MNSC Staff for all the n00bs out there 8. maybe more. stay tuned.... Changes from past meets we are going to try out. 1. look for mnsc staffers telling you where to park. if you dont notice anyone...ASK 2. As soon as you get parked, head to the registration desk/grill to get sign up for raffles, food, and on our list of attendees RULES: 1. dont violate any park regs 2. dont drive like a moron. ie squeeling tires, burnouts, cookies, speeding, etc in/near the park vacinity 3. Dont piss of the mnsc staff 4. read 1-3 above Keep it simple and enjoy yourselves. We strive hard as always to provide a safe and enjoyable experience at our meets. All violators will be asked to leave and possible kicked from MNSC. Remember this is public park w/ families and kids around.
^^^ I highly suggest we park together also. There is no weirdness like being stuck between two switch-hitting-steel-wheeled-cameleon-painted-nos-injected-painted-drum-brakes-with-subwoofers-overflowing-from-the-trunk-rattling-licence-plates-and-coffee-can-exhaust kinda cars. Call me if anyone has a plan. ~Dan 612.220.3648
If we're running together you can count me in, but only if we catch the later part of it. Just post up here sometime soon. I don't have a sport compact anymore though, more like a sport sedan.
