J's Gathering/JDM Theory Caravan Thread

Hey all.

Just started this thread to make plans for Sunday's J's Gathering.

I was thinking we could somehow carpool there. My logic is that traffic will suck, parking will suck, and there will probably be cops there that will also suck. I figure that we could be smart about this and carpool in without too much trouble.

Maybe we could meet at UCKK, and then head out to Japantown. Or we could meet somewhere outside of Japan town and carpool ourselves into Japantown.

Please post suggestions and/or if you need a ride.

Personally, I think we should try to avoid driving anything that is "controversial," at least going into Japantown. Anyone have a van. We could carpool in that or something.

Haha. Yeah... that's why I don't want to drive.

Speaking of bikes, I was thinking of doing a Fast and the Furious parody/satire. I was thinking about a short film about street racing on bicycles!! Yes!! Bicycle... like the ones you pedal.

Haha.

So, tomorrow anyone? We can meet up at UCKK or something. If someone has a van, we could van in. Personally, I would like to arrive early, and leave early. Anyone game?

why don't you drive down to san jose then back up 101 so you don't have to take a bridge

That way you can waste some money in gas, and just make up for it because you didnt pay toll
