So I had a little epiphany today and was wondering who would be interested in switching the monthly meet at the varsity to the atlantic station. There is a TON of space there and would be a cool place to have a meet. The only down fall would be that the parking deck only allows you to stay there for two hours or less without having to pay for your spot.

I know this may be different from the norm but what wouldn't be? this is the closest place from the Varsity and possibly could be our new place to meet. Im not saying this will be our place to meet this month but maybe we can spread the word this meet and possibly make it our future place to meet!


any input would be great!...lol I know ill get some!

Im not sure what the price of parking would be after the two hour bubble but i feel that it will be less then the $5. If we really want to find a new place to have a meet I feel that this place is a very cool place to meet and can have a big potential!

When I tried to make a suggestion to move, people bitched cause the Varsity was "in the middle of everywhere", so unless it's like right next door, I doubt anyone's gonna switch.

good idea.

i don't think atlantic station wants car meets there tho

yeah they prob dont want us there but what r they going to to when 200+ ppl show up...tell us to leave? then we can go to the varsity!!!! I PERSONALLY THINK WE SHOULD MAKE THE NEXT MEET AT ATLANTIC STATION there is SOOOO much room in the parking deck that there shouldnt be a problem! If there is then we can always drive back to the varsity....we should spread the word at this varsity meeting, I know I'll be there spreading the word!!!

oh and those complaining that its too far of a drive..if you cant got drive 7 more lights down peachtree then dont come!

we will not know till it happpens...im sure it was the same way when the varsity meet was started up! If we dont try something new then we will never know! its worth a go! we will have AT LEAST 2 HOURS in the parking deck before we have to pay!

I'm down for the move. I don't think cops can kick you out either if you pay for parking.....right?

you can still loiter on a property even if you've paid for parking.

and trying to move a meet like that would be a good way to end even being able to meet at the V. once the property owners for Atlantic Station complain about all the cars loitering in their lot the police will probably start scrutinizing the Varsity lot as well. just be content that the Varsity is accomodating to you guys unlike pretty much every other property in atlanta.

Actually I am in talking with management there:)

The parking deck is huge. Thing is they want to see people spend money there and I cannot promise them that will happen. All the restarurants cost $$$$ outside Moes and if people do burnouts and other shit, forget about it.

It is free to park the first 2 hours. Quite frankly all you would have to do is leave within 2 hours, and come right back in for another 2 hours:)

ya its for parking, i for one would like to see some people move from the varsity cause it gets stupid, burnouts and shit, ya they are cool to watch, but it forces me to park my car away from that

plus the last 2 times ive gone ive had to pay for parking, so im not even going probally until it gets cold.

I do know they want $6,000-$10,000 and a big ass package to have a car show there that has to be approved by their comitte to make sure it fits in with their image they are trying to maintain ;) Been there already.

It'll never work. As Tracy said, they are trying to gather an image that will only be "tarnished" if the tuners come in. I guarantee that it won't work. Later, QD.

Tracy
09-06-2006, 10:35 PM
I mean someone can try. They were as nice and professional as you would expect them to be. I just know they want to make it hard for the every day joe to do a car thing there. There were about it if it was like GM backed thing. It has to be a "full presentation before they consider it".

no way, parking/traffic is already a bitch w/the regular traffic, i wanna be nowhere near that deck when 200+ cars show up for a meet. shit, have u any idea how many ppl are not gonna know how to pay to get out should they overstay their 2 hrs??? it would create the line from hell, i know cuz i've had to sit behind some of these dumb pricks on a regular day. :2cents:

I think its a good Idea, moving it to Atlantic Station. Plus its only like a dollar to park there. If you loose your ticket its $5 for the whole night.

Not going to work.

EVEN if they let "well behaved" tuners meet (which I doubt), the same crowd that is an annoyance at the Varsity will fuck this up.

Exactly, worth a try. Maybe you should try smaller meets, like do a inner-city meet sometime before the next varsity meet, similar to the G'nett meets. If that goes well, then maybe more people will be willing to try it out.

I'd be willing to try it, if i get a car cool enough to take to meets.

even ignoring the cost of the land (and the taxes you'll have to pay on it). Do you what it costs to pave a parking lot?

09-10-2006, 05:02 PM
sounds good, i'm willing to try but be careful, people are going to criticize you (like he said). if it doesn't work, why dont you set up a meet every three thursday something? good luck...i'm n... i'll bring at least 20 cars or more

Nittanys1
09-10-2006, 06:56 PM
yeah from the input that everyone has given it looks as if it will be hard to pull off...

Also the parking deck is SO big....it will be hard to put everyone together without having a few trial runs or a few mini meets within the area. (that be funny)

I went there last night and had a hell of a time trying to find a spot...but then again there was another deck below me that i didnt go to...

ShooterMcGavin
09-10-2006, 07:37 PM
the place is a giant maze but always has plenty of parking tucked away in the lower levels. it's a great place for mini meets, just not the ideal place for a 200+ car event.

HvyArms
09-10-2006, 07:46 PM
Im a little distracted, so forgive me for asking stupid questions...but are we talking about the Parkinf deck under Atlantic Station? One valid concern I think, is that the sound of all our cars motors and people's sound systems respectively would be an issue. I like the open area of the Varsity, the street is right there. You can go up on the top deck and park, or just hang out. Imagine idiots doing burnouts if we met at Atlantic Station? There's just something about all those cars, in a parking deck, that just makes me feel uncomfortable. Just doesnt seem that it'd be as fun. my :2cents:

09-10-2006, 08:52 PM
