this was the most general spot i could find for this topic so here goes

i had an idea about doing a drive from nyc to sf and stopping at different cities to have car shows and do fundraisers for charity. thats the basics. now it has become more of a meet in the middle of the country so that everyone has an equal chance to participatecuriuos to see if anyone else would be interested in something like this. it would be for next summer and if coordianted right could have big car shows, or stop at shows like HIN or EXPOSED. u wouldnt have to do the whole trip but whatever portion you would want to. say, ny to cleveland, or l.a. to vegas. obviously it would take alot of work, and i wouldnt mind trying to coordinate it, but the 1st step is to find the interest level than everything else can fall into place. please give me some opinions. thanks.

and if ur opinion/post is going to be useless, refrain from posting and save some valuable space

 

that is an awsome idea if you are really intrested in the idea send it to this guy on scion life his handle is chewy he is the guy to talk to about shows and gaterings around the north east states

 

feel free to pass it on

 

I would be up for it... Maybe doin some major photoshoots along the way. We would have to put some dates together and see what time of the year will work best. I know there are a few guys in Chicago planning on taking a trip t oFlorida around the time of spring break. Maybe we can incorporate this somehow.

Ill check back and see how the interest is. A large cruise sounds awesome

 

It would kinda be like the power tour but with a lot less power, but think that sounds like a cool idea

 

How about from New York City to Torrance, CA. Scion's HQ.

 

ummmm we have been rambling about a cross country rally like this for a while

thanks. im reading as i type, but they seem to want a canonball run and race etc, i want car shows
and ive been thinking about this b4 august so :-p
:D

 

well if you hit up some places with tracks ill take a week worth of the trip with you but it has to be after next may so i can drink if we hit up some clubs lol

 

im going to start making calls today to diff places and get answers to some questions i have hopefully. they can keep talkin about what they want to do

 

ALL I have to say is That IAm Down ANd ROAD TRIP!!!!!!
I only get 2 week vacation from work,thats sucks

 

only if i was rich

and if some of that fundraisin money goes into my pockey

 

if anything, i'll have vacation time from work and skool so, yea, i'm down!!!!

 

ucyib2papi please keep me in the loop on the ny end of this if you really want this to happen. here on LI you have 2 of the largest scion clubs- SENY & NRG. i can only speak for NRG but i will mention it to rick or les of SENY next time i see them. between the 2 clubs we have tons of resources to make this happen. also you should contact urban racer, they do all the scion corp events here in ny. i spoke with them over the summer about a scion kickoff the car show season party at jones beach so i know they wanted to do something at jones beach, this may be it :D

 

cool, thanks for the info. im moving all my talk to this forum but i will be checking the NE region for comments and making some from time to time as well as the gumball run or whatever.
i still waiting for a response but ive got some planning down, and will continue working on this

 

I think you've got a great idea going and I hope to hear that it works.

What you'll have to do is make up a full route plan and call ahead to every location(not a big deal at all). What might be tough is keeping the crowd for extended periods. You'll want to be sure you've got coast to coast support because you might not get too many willing to drive from side to side. I'm sure you'll pick up a lot of people and drop off a lot as they decide that they've driven as far as they can and then have to turn around.

I'd love to be a part of this but I'd be one that could only go so far. I'd hang with ya for as long as possible but can only road trip so much. One you get a route idea, let us know and each of us as individuals can help spread the word in our own Scion communities. With Scion Life's help maybe this can turn into a HUGE event.

 

edit
check pg 2

 

sounds good so far! i can assure you the NY, NJ, PA, CT would definitely be there for day 1 & 2 maybe even day 3

 

the drive from nyc to chicago is 12 hrs going 72, just as a point of reference

 

cool! i really hope this happens! NRG loves road trips!!!
:D
