+1, except having it change randomly would be a bit of a hassle. Not to mention people might not access I-club that night's meet and totally look like a loner at the last spot.

I think if you go sneaking around it makes you look guilty of something.

Bottom line.. the meets are not the problem. If you go. Spend money at the places you're parking. Don't take up spots too close to the businesses. Mind your own business and drive like a sane person on your way out most of the time you'll be fine.

They are trying to send a message that folks like us are not welcome but they're forgetting we have a constitutional right to do what we're doing and we're law abiding tax paying citizens for the most part.

Sooner or later we're all going to have to organize and fight for our rights because more and more "liberties" are being taken away and/or moderated by the government. If we're not careful we're gonna keep going the way we're going and end up like so many other countries where the government makes all your choices for you. It seems that no one learned from the past 2000 years.

i think that's always been the case....just look at insurance premiums for specific age brackets.
