Another HIN nissan meet

cricket_pimp69 · Apr 8th, 2003, 12:57 PM

Since it went so well last year, i am going to organize another one. I want some opinions again. I am looking to do this again on the day of HIN, which is June 14th this year. I am looking at tentative times of starting at the Bass Pro shop around 2:00pm and leaving the lot at 4:00pm to give us an hour to get down I-drive thru all that frickin traffic to make it to HIN at 5:00pm when it opens up (if its same time as last year). That will give us 2 hours of "meet and greet" time to see all the nissan. This went pretty well last year, so i might as well try it again.

Hey no problem, as soon as i get final details i email you and post them. HIN is Hot Import Nights which is a pretty big import event. Smaller than Nopi nationals, but still fun and it's indoors.

wow, they're doing HIN again on I-drive? I'm down (now that I know the route). We need to be more organized this time. and maybe meet earlier/get to HIN earlier. Last time, everyone left the Bass Pro Shop at different times, small groups, we got cought in bad traffic and we ended up parking in a parking garage across the street. The setup pissed me off, I ended up getting in the wrong lane last time and I had to circle around. Cars were at a standstill as we were herded through 5 city blocks. When I left, the parking garage charged me something like $6 and I only had about $4.50 on me. The lady was too stupid to just let me pass with $4.50, so I had to just sit there for 10 minutes to fill out a mail in form.

yeah I remember that 97GA, that sucked. we should try to keep that in mind. Hell I might just ride up from tampa just for the nissan meet cause HIN last year sucked. Good call on the meet cricket. One other thing... why not try and do something for NOPI racewars on may 17th and 18th. it will be a better event, it's sooner, and it would be better atmosphere to chill with fellow nissan owners while actually at the event and not just b4 it.

Ninety-Nine SE-L · Apr 28th, 2003, 12:13 PM

cool, I might join you on the drive from Tampa, I'm only in Orlando for school, so this summer, I'll be right here in Safety Harbor.

blueboost · Apr 28th, 2003, 12:58 PM

sounds good so far

sorry i just saw this, i'm deployed to the field in a joint exercise with the af and army so i wouldnt be able to make the nopi. I'm still working out the details but we are looking to hold it at one of the nissan dealerships right there in orlando. the problem is finding one to agree to it that has a big enough lot for it

Ninety-Nine SE-L · May 18th, 2003, 01:46 AM

Well, I updated my sig. I hope others will do the same so we can make this a big event.

Icej · May 18th, 2003, 05:26 AM

Where is this going on at?

Ninety-Nine SE-L · May 18th, 2003, 06:22 AM

in Orlando on International Drive. The Bass pro shop has a big parking lot on I-drive where we'll meet up, then we will move down to the convention center (same road). I suggest we leave for HIN a lot earlier than we did last time so we may actually get some decient parking. Also, bring about $10 just incase you get stuck in a parking garage. Those garages charge like 1.50/hr or something like that.

I will be coming from Safety Harbor this time. If anyone in the St. Pete/Tampa area wants to join up, I know how to get there. PM me if you want to meet up in Tampa or something.

BTW, what is the actual address of the Bass Pro Shop? I will prolly find it easily once I get on I-drive, but this is a big road and I'd like a number.
