Weekday Sacramento Area meet in Roseville
Hey guys, some of the members here in SRIC wanted to try and start a weekly meeting that would take place during the Week so that it would not interfer with the main Sacramento Meets that takes place Saturday nights in Natomas. I think that we've pretty much decided that the meets will take place in Roseville, it could change, we will see. Please vote for which weekday would work best for you so that we can get as many members to attent who want to.

hey, with a weekday meet, I think that karting would be a little more convenient since we'll be close by and it will be a weeknight, no little kiddys

Hell, I live in Granite Bay, so this would be a quick drive for me, but making it out to the Saturday meets every other week is hard enough. I can't imagine trying to get across town in traffic to make the meet.
But hey, give it a whirl and see what happens. Let me know when you go karting and I'll make the 10 minute drive over.

It is very hard for me to make the Saturday meet and the fact that it is almost 30 minutes away doesn't help. Schafer seemed to think a weekday meet was a good idea and I frankly agree. Again, I am not saying we *need* two meets but for those who can't make it to the weekend meets a weekday meet might be nice. If karting is of interest it also seems silly to drive to Natomas, then drive back to Roseville where I live, then drive back to Natomas for the chill out part of the meet and then drive back to Roseville where I live (although I have done this!!!). Sure, I guess I could some to just the karting action and then to the chill out session if I liked but then I might miss out on those people who only come for the first session and never come karting. The reason I suggested Roseville in the first place is because Schafer mentioned it as a possible location and Gofland is in Roseville and there is a great center that has lots of food and is rarely busy.
I don't think we are trying to say we need two meets, come to whichever is more convenient, it isn't a popularity contest.

Well, back before you were a member of SRIC, which was at the time, BAIC, we did a poll and the unanimous decision was Saturday. We did a location poll, the unanimous decision was Natomas. Then we did the meets for about 15 months happy as clams. We tried the weekday thing, but nobody ever showed. Literally, it was me, Aaron and Scott. I think Kevin came out once but I don't remember.
The weekend meet is not flawed because you can't make it to the meet for whatever reason. A large group of people have been able to work out their personal lives to make it to the meets and hang out for over a year now and more and more people continue to do the same all the time. You should work out a deal with your gf to let you come out and play on a Saturday night, or bring her along if you want. Russia usually brings his lady and I'm sure she'd appreciate having another female who doesn't necessarily like to talk about cars and video games for hours. I'd bring mine but she's always working Saturday nights :|

ok, let's just clear things up a bit... this is not a "replacement" meet , lets think of it more as an additional sacramento meet to attend if you do not have anything going on during the weekdays. I personally don't think that it will happen every single week, I always have stuff popping up as a spur of the moment thing during weekdays.
