True.... some of us may have already visited these establishments...

Savage_Messiah · 01-26-2005, 12:02 AM

agreed, dont want a potential spot to get pissed at us/think we're too unorganized bacause 2 different ppl went to inquire w/o knowing the other went.

Trans Am Chick · 01-26-2005, 11:33 AM

ok ok damn. ill list them later. when i get home from school/get to work

V · 01-26-2005, 11:52 AM

no englewood...dahm, lol...
i know of a nice burger king by a big parking lot, lol.
or houlihans(i think thats the place) at the riverside(?)mall by rt4 and hackensack ave.

but seriously, we need to possibly think on a more local level. for example like the tavern where the central jersey meets were at, well i was never there so i really dont know whats its like, but the tavern concept gave me ideas. I know a local tavern/restaurant that would fit us, but not the parking(30 max). maybe if anyone knows a good local restaurant we can look into that, we may be able to reserve it and not have to make deposits etc. and parking would be the main concern. ok for 50 people figure the place needs to have at least 15 tables that can be moved around. You get what im saying? i dunno, lets just try to keep the ideas coming

Kasey & I are planning to scope out some "tavern" like places on Saturday. Â*Im assuming our general location is within the vacinity of Paramus? One of the places Im eyeing has the parking area, but I havent been inside of it in a while, so I want to go inside of the places and look.

At Firkin they gave us our own party hall which was pretty neet and had PLENTY of space for the 40+ some people who went.

Trans Am Chick · 01-26-2005, 04:38 PM

ok in about an hour or so im gunna list the places karl and i are going to on saturday. as soon as the phones calm down at work. i just got here. and we have like 8 calls on hold.

Trans Am Chick · 01-26-2005, 05:46 PM

by town:

Paramus: Applebee's; Fudd's; the Forum Dinner; Ruby Tuesday's; The Fireplace; and Charlie Brown's (<--least i think thats paramus...)

Ramsey & Mahwah: Friday's; Kinchley's; and The Mason Jar

Rt. 23 area: Applebee's in totowa; Maccaroni Grill; and Fudd's in wayne

finally the one id really like it at...

Bennigan's in Saddle Brook. <-- holds car shows all the time. has a spare lot from what i remember. very good with car clubs like us. right off the park way. very easy to get to. etc. yea. i realllly hope its there.

but there u go. theres the list that i have altho i still feel like im missing a place or 2... ill havta check my other notebook when i get home.

Savage_Messiah · 01-26-2005, 08:42 PM

no WAY forum can fit us all, thats my first comment lol. A lot of the others I'm not too familiam with, axcept the totowa applebee's, ill try to check it out, my only concern there is fitting us all inside.

Trans Am Chick · 01-26-2005, 08:46 PM

the forum wud definatelly fit us but its not my personal fave. like i said im reallllly shootin for bennigan's. actually if u wudnt mind checking out the 3 places in the rt. 23 area that wud be nice. that way karl and i dont havta drive all the way out there....

Savage_Messiah · 01-26-2005, 09:22 PM

uh ok give me a car first. mines not running yet

Trans Am Chick · 01-26-2005, 10:27 PM

lol o ok. didnt kno... sry.

12secondv6 · 01-27-2005, 10:07 PM

Kinchly's is too small
Mason Jar also

Benigans no longer supports car shows... they would not welcome us... I used to attend the car shows there for a couple years...

Fireplace is boring... but may have all we need....

Fuddruckers.... in wayne.... I don't know their set up.... the one up here on RT 4 lacks parking

As for the others....... dunno if they are willing to handle our level of turnout

slasherbarb · 01-28-2005, 11:59 PM

fudd's in wayne has a small lot...no chance there... how about hooters...

Savage_Messiah · 01-31-2005, 01:01 AM

So what happened? anything?

Trans Am Chick · 01-31-2005, 02:39 PM

yea i have a fone call to make 2nite to finalize everything. as soon as i get home from school ill post all the info.

Savage_Messiah · 01-31-2005, 02:46 PM

finalize??? i think you should let us know where, what and when you're planning on finalizing.

Trans Am Chick · 01-31-2005, 02:57 PM

kasey chill out. i told u gimmie till i get outta skule.

Trans Am Chick · 01-31-2005, 05:06 PM

k guyz. i talked to all the places. well all but 2. the fireplace was closed. and fudds wudnt talk to us even. basically the only place that really could accomidate us is bennigans. and despite what james thought. they are more then eager to have us. please let me know if you guyz found any other places. if not. let me know so i can talk to mark about us being there. im going to call him tonight. and just reconfirm everything. nothings gunna be final. i just wanted to go over everything we needed once more since he was about to leave when we talked to him on saturday. lemmie kno if you guyz are content with bennigans or not... im pretty sold. they have about 200 parking spots in the back and side parking lot. the front parking lot is for regular saturday business. hes going to keep us all in the same section. etc. theyre more then happy to have us. so please. lemmie know what you guyz want. or if you found anything else. all the other places couldnt quite accomidate us well enough. that or they just didnt want us there...

NJSPEEDER · 01-31-2005, 05:29 PM

good deal.
anyoen else look into any places yet? it woudl be best if we coudl lock this in and pick a place in the next week or so. that way we can announce teh meet in plenty of time for everyone to plan for it.

later
tim

mikeitup28 · 01-31-2005, 06:33 PM

Just shooting this one out...

TGI Friday's in Ledgewood, NJ has INSANE amount of parking and could definetly support all of us from the meet. Also, highway front parking, so all the cars driving on rt. 46 will see all of our bitch'en f-bodies!

Directions are simple too... Its exit 29 off rt. 80 west

I've been to this place a ton of times and its awesome for events like this. Also there is alot of other nice cars that swing by...

Trans Am Chick · 01-31-2005, 06:37 PM

if u want it. talk to the manager there. see if hell help us out. but i really need an answer by the end of the week. the fridays that i went to wanted a set amount of money that everyone was going to spend. and were hinting at a down payment. so if u think this one wont ask for that then thats up to u to find out. i have no way of getting out there this weeek. and i do need to kno by wednsday/thursday. bennigans is more then willing to have us. id prefer not to lead them on and then let them go. at least not for a long period of time.

mikeitup28 · 01-31-2005, 06:44 PM

okay, I can stop there tomarrow.
Roughly tho i just need to know a few things...

What day and time will we be meeting in the parking lot? and what time will we be eating?

About how many cars, and how many people?

Trans Am Chick · 01-31-2005, 06:51 PM

send me an im: bludragoness131 or transamchick85
or call me 201.675.2584 and ill talk to u about the meet.

ar0ck · 01-31-2005, 11:03 PM

You have a date set already? Because I would think you need to give this people a date or time frame, and its best you go over it with the rest of the club.

my $.02 would be to time it with the over-lapping spring break in March
Just for an example some major school thats most of the members here attend to :
Bergen - 3/21 - 3/28
William Paterson - 3/13 - 3/21
Rutgers - 3/12 - 3/21
Rowan University - 3/12 - 3/21

See a pattern here?
It looks like everyone will be around on Saturday the 19th or Sunday the 20th.

Trans Am Chick · 01-31-2005, 11:25 PM

well i was origionally told by tim and justin to shoot for the 12th or 19th... when i talked to the managers... everyone kinda refused to go the 19th because its so busy for st. patricks day.. so if we go with bennigans it wud be the 12th. gather at 2 as usual eat around 3. he doesnt care how long we hang out in the parking lot. his only req. was no burn outs.
