Honestly not sure how anyone can really complain. Its not a show, its a meet, you pay only $5 and the nickname is "Honda Alliance" so you should have some general expectations. In 3 short years this show size has grown 5 fold and its amazing to see it grow for yourself. Its in Atlanta, where most of us live so that is great, no long drive needed. We took NOPI Nats for granted and its gone, lets not do the same here.
Gotta be honest here with tons of Hondas, modified cars you know some people are going to rev like crazy. Also common sense should tell you it will be loud since its in a parking deck where the noise will echo. So buy some EAR PLUGS and bring them since it can get tiring after awhile.
The meet is not really to drive around in, its to park and walk around. It reminds me of the old club days in Buckhead, most people walked and club hopped and you had some people that just insisted in cruising in their cars then complaining about people walking around.
If you want to see exotics and really incredible cars, wake your butt up to be at Caffiene and Octane at 8am. Otherwise don't be surprised there are none here. Different meets attract different people. Keep your glass half full, I thought it was great to see so many cars and out of towners here pouring money into the local economy and enjoying themselves. The police were pretty damn liberal and people acted pretty good considering there is minimal security there.
I agree there is a lot of crap there and a lot of the same ole same old but there were some different rides here and there like the old school cars, the VIP cars and some people parked their clubs or like cars together. What isn't crap is the ENTHUSIASM, its great to see people, especially young people still be enthused about cars considering gas is $4. I told a bud there that you have to give the Honda guys props for dominating meets and bringing so much enthusiasm that spreads to other brands.
Its great in the parking deck b/c even if its not hot, standing/sitting in the sun for hours can get old. Its great that it is covered and if it rains people would likely still come. It also is a great central location for everyone to come down too.
Great meet!
