It is time to start preparations for the 2nd Annual Battle for the Capital. For those who don't know what this meet is about; it is an event jointly held between the torontomazda3 club, the ottawa mazda club and the mazda3quebec club.

We are in the preliminary phases of preparation. stage one is date!

so this poll is to see who may be interested in which days!

judjing by the way everything unfolded last year...i dont see a dire need to start soo early in teh year as we thought about it last year. It went off without a hitch last year, and im pretty sure by word of mouth it was a great success ( as we all know it was) and that its by no means going to be forgotten this year.

Yah I agree with Bub's, its going to be beating a dead horse. last time the date didn't get set because a few reasons. If people are going to come they will have enough notice when it is. Interested days really dont tell us anything because we had 30 votes or so for last years and guess who showed...

i'd give it until late feb early march to start the talks. Maybe a poll regarding whether we should move it around or not would be a better place to start. Has anyone discussed that option? We threw the idea around last year and people liked it.

we talked a bit about moving around, however, Bruno told me it is not likely that many from quebec will make the trek to toronto. It may be best to run it in ottawa for a few years and let it establish itself.

last year it came together, but in terms of sponsorships, and prizes and what not, we didnt have any really, for certain not from toronto.

some of us are not as flexible as you guys, and can't let the date be up in the air, as we need to take time off from work and from writing our thesis! :P

so . . . if you are flexible, i ask that you set a date now, if you dont care and can accomodate whatever date add that in, i will edit the poll!

mEtH

I am not saying dont decide a date for a long time just dont do it right now. if its decided by the beginning of March that gives 3 months for people to arrange the time off etc. I definately dont have the best schedule to work with all the weddings going on this year myself.

But has there been talks going on or something? Have you just pulled these dates out of thin air? I mean trying to get a consensus for when people can go is nice and all but it just never works. Especially this early in the game. We can have 30 people say yah this day is kewl and the true people that would of showed would choose another day. I mean Darknights, MOM any of those events dont send out surveys. Maybe we can run a poll between people that went last year as they will probably put more of an attempt forward to show again. Rather then a board wide vote, we set a date and people who want to come will try to re-arrange their schedules. There will be more then enough time to do the shifting. By all means we can do the vote now and try setting the date now but I think we should take another approach for it.

I still think it is too early to try setting the date, I personally dont know whats happening six months down the road. I am sure half the people who vote wont either.

Nonetheless you can take what I say into account or not. Its really your call then since it seems you have been in contact with the other boards.

Keep us/me posted.

it was agreed upon that making it a bit earlier this year would increase the quebect attendence (i.e b4 their big annual meet) these are all the weekends not including holidays that are in late june early july, this way it avoids MOM and maybe DKN (though the 21st is my guess for the DKN weekend). the other boards posted up, so i figured i would also. bubbs u recieving the emails? meth, you want to be recieving the emails?

i think if we narrow it down and say we will do it in late june-early july that is probably good enough for now. but it doesn't hurt to plan it in advance.

ideally, we will stick to some sort of regular schedule for the years to come.

i.e second week of july every year
or last week of june every year!

Broli

i think alot of people may have other plans that weekend, and may not be interested in taking the weekend for this, also maybe more difficult ot be in ottawa during that weekend??

perhaps if this event gets large enough, we can move it to a long weekend?

Good to see the discussion has started. I know it's really early to start talking about date etc, but it's good to get some dates out there early so hopefully we won't have as many people back out like last year because of the date. I also don't think long weekends during the summer will ever work for a meet, as most people spend those with family or going camping/cottage etc.

In regards to location, I was all for switching every year, but as Broli mentioned, I also got the impression from the QC guys that they wouldn't travel any further then Ottawa.

Hey all, it's roge from mazda3quebec...

to answer swales:
It's not that the Quebec guys don't want to travel further than Ottawa. Me and Microdude actually went to Toronto last year for a meet. But last time in Ottawa only mz3qc members from Montreal went to the meet. So it's more of a question that we want people from outside Montreal to come to the meet too. Guys living in Quebec City would need to drive more than 5 hours just to get to Ottawa, so any further for them is a real pain. We're just trying to attract as much people as we can.

Remember we're the Quebec club, as in the province of Quebec not just 1 city.

But seriously, I also suggested to Bruno that we can do this somewhere else, like in Kingston or Cornwall or even here in Montreal/Mont Tremblant.

Anyways, I'm planning to go to MOMs this year in T.O.. Depending on which week-end it's on.

swales
01-10-2007, 07:04 AM
Hey Roge

I know some people don't mind driving (us Ottawa guys go to TO all the time for meets) but I remember last year that even some guys from the Mtl area weren't too happy about driving to Ottawa because they had to drive to your summer meet a few weeks later. The thing is, no matter where a meet is held (even local club meets) there's always going to be people that don't want to drive far (pretty funny considering it's a car club...lol) so if we can find a location that makes most people happy we should stick with it.

I don't mind having the meet in Mtl or Tremblant if you guys want to take the meet over next year (or even this year). I don't think Cornwall is that great of an idea as there isn't much there and Kingston is probably out too as it's best to do it in a city where some members live so they can organize everything

Broli
01-10-2007, 08:47 AM
I think that the people from toronto who will go, will go as far as mtl.
If we keep Ottawa this year, we can see if the quebec club gets more representation from quebec city. then we can make better decisions on possible locations.

I do agree, that cornwall or kingston are likely no good,

mEtH
01-10-2007, 10:55 AM
Its only fair that if this ends up in Montreal that it comes to Toronto one year whether the people drive or not. Its not like we aren't doing the long drives either here.

If we can find a place that will work more neutral that would be kewl but as mentioned, planning will be more difficult. In which case maybe one or two representatives from each club help on the planning.

Broli
01-10-2007, 12:44 PM
for sure, if we do mtl, then we do toronto also!

i am still gonna say that a neutral spot like kingston is no good, i would rather it be in ottawa than kingston, i would drive the extra 2 hours

??? Not really. You remember wrong... The few guys from Mtl who cancelled at the last minute just couldn't make it. The others who cancelled were from outside Mtl and so driving 5+ hours twice in the same month for a car meet was a bit too much. In the end, we were still 8 or 9 from the Quebec club to show up in Ottawa, so it wasn't that bad.

And of course I wouldn't mind having the meet in T.O.. I actually prefer T.O. I get to shop at Pacific Mall... :)

Broli
01-10-2007, 01:06 PM
haha

well if we do T.O one time, we can try to schedule it during the MOM weekend, and have our own event on the day that is not MOM

edit: of course a Pmall shopping trip is in order!

It is an event that got started up last year and has only happened once. It was a blast and we plan to keep it going as a tradition. Last year the Ottawa guys took grasp of the whole planning and did a great job with some help from the Quebec and Toronto boards.

Just keep an eye on this thread as it will grow in the next month or so. I will try and find links to photos from last year but someone else might beat me to that since I have to get some things done before I head home from work.

We hope that interest will build.

so when do you guys wanna make this happen.. seriously i think june would be the best.. first meet of the season and we start it off with a bang! iwe tlaked it over at our weekly meet and ppl are interested in june but not the june 23-24 weekend.. so maybe the one before that would be good?
for the travelling i'm all up for it.. i'm sure we could get a few ppl to come down to toronto (5-6) if it happens there.. but i doubt more then that cause it will be like a 7-8 hour drive for ppl outside montreal... although i loved the meet when i came down in september.. and i'm hinking of coming back to see you guys! now we just gotta decide on a location and date..

Broli
01-18-2007, 12:22 AM
i am in favour of which ever weekend the meet happens,

the weekend of June 16-17 i will be in quebec city, so i would prefer not, however, i am ok with that weekend, if i miss, i miss! whatever gets the best turnout!

why dont we at least set a deadline to decide when to do this meet!

Like Microdude said, the Quebec club is having the annual provincial meet in Montreal this year, so maybe we can arrange to have both at the same time. And then next year, we'll come down to Toronto.

Seems as if the creators of the Mega Meet have been left out of the loop, thanks for letting us know :-P Now that we now know, I'll put a stop to all the plans that us Ottawa guys have been planning and pass the responsibility to the QC guys.

BTW, I have no problem taking turns with the meet but good luck getting the QC to TO next year, if they won't drive to Ottawa there's no way in hell they're driving to TO. I know a couple of them will go, but it will probably be 1-4 cars.

01-22-2007, 10:03 AM
easy easy, this is all just talks, nothing has been decided for sure, for now.
Bruno just threw out an idea, and is looking into its feasability!

we need to have some sort of centralized way of planning

why don't we stick to emails for the planning and leave the threads on the different boards for updates and discussion?

why don't we stick to emails for the planning and leave the threads on the different boards for updates and discussion?

I thought that's what we were doing, but then I go on the QC board and read this thread and some how the talks have turned into QC hosting the meet. Like mentioned, I have no problems with this but at least some heads up about this before it's posted on our club forums would have been good since as far as we were concerned, the location was set for this year and we only needed to settle on a date. Now the talk has shifted from the actual date to members of the QC board posting that they will only attend if it's held in QC

Broli
01-22-2007, 10:28 AM

WTF? Only 2 guys mention he will only go if the meet is in Mtl. One of them lives in Qc City which is already 3 hours away from Mtl... The other one never goes to any meet so it doesn't really matter.

Everyone else who posted are interested with the meet no matter where it is held.

As I mention before, I think we were 9 cars to show up at the Ottawa meet last year... What's wrong with that??? Seriously Swales, are you on a mission to discredit the Quebec club on this board?

Most people who posted acknowledge the fact we will go to TO next year, with one even suggesting visiting Canada Wonderland... dunno why but whatever makes him happy :) We have weekly meets and that's where most people from Mtl express their opinion about the meet...

Anyways, I sent my thoughts by email and will continue from there.

Sorry if I sound pissed but I am, there's nothing like having the rug pulled from under you.

I have nothing directly against the QC club but a lot of your members complain about driving long distances (not just ones from outside of Mtl), so I find it really hard to believe that many members are willing to drive to TO next year which isn't fair to the TO club. The funny thing is, your excuse is they are from the QC City area so it's far to drive for a meet, yet you guys suggest a meet at Tremblant which is at least the same distance for the TO guys to travel. I'm finished with my rant and hopefully your club proves me wrong.

mazdaboy
01-22-2007, 08:47 PM
im speaking as one of the mazda3quebec members: most of the people who posted that they wont drive really far for thier meet arejust talking to raisse their post count:P no but seiously some of them dont even go to a meet that is in their city. i really dont have a problem weather its on toronto, montreal, ottawa so im in wherever it is..

roge
01-22-2007, 09:07 PM
ok, i have no clue why the qc club is getting all the shit... We were in Ottawa last year and will continue to be at other meets. I don't think none of us were bitching last year when we went to Ottawa. We have 1195 members on the Quebec board, so for sure some will complain. But like mazdaboy says they only post to raise their post counts. Seriously with all these accusations I think I'm going to start the hating...

Looking at pictures from last year in Ottawa, I count 9 mazda3 with the Quebec plate, and I believe 6 mazda3 from Toronto which is very good, and about 8 or 9 mazda3 from Ottawa. Where's the other Ottawa Mazda3? I don't think we were the no show, but considering the meet was in Ottawa I'd expect a bit more 3s from the Ottawa region. So c'mon give us a break...

This is supposed to be fun and all. We're only January, and this should be all in the planning stage. Nothing is for sure yet right?

Mont Tremblant is only a suggestion. The same people from Qc City who aren't willing to go to Ottawa are also not willing to go to Tremblant. We simply made the suggestion cuz it's nice there, have beautiful roads, a race track, plenty of hotels and clubs. More fun for everyone! It was actually a suggestion from a Mazdaspeed3 owner who lives there and can arrange a few things...

But we'll see. We'll try to figure something out in Montreal. Forget about the scenic drive though, as Mtl is the pothhole capital of the world ;)

Same for me, Like roge, Microdude and Mazdaboy, I'm an active member of Mz3qc. As far as I know, if the meet is outside Quebec, only a bunch of people of our club will go... as the other don't even go to our mtl meet... but, I'm sure that if the meet is in mtl this year, we'll have a lot more poeple than 9-10!

We can't predict the future, but I can assure you, next year, if it's in Toronto, I'm quite sure the same people will be there..

Tremblant is nice but it's pricey remember that. So make sure when we do this that budget needs to be kept in mind.

it's in st sauveur not tremblant..

yes sorry, i couldn't remember the name, and was lazy, so didn't go to email.

Bruno, can you post up here a tentative plan, with pits stops and approx times, when you have enough information to do so.

I want the T.O people to see what is in store, so they can decide about the drive. i have heard some complaints on driving, i think most people will be ok with an hour outside of montreal, but perhaps we can end somehow the last of the event in montreal for a dinner or smtg, that way everyone is happy!

it's 5-6 hours from toronto to Tremblant. So keep that in mind. I personally think we should have ti closer to montreal? that way people can go clubing in MTL at night.

up to now we have the following

-meet at around 12 at he orange julep in montreal..
-then head out to st sauver (about 30mins from montreal)
-go over to a mebers house near there and have a bbq for supper and mingle
-at night go clubing at www.bourbonstreetclub.com really cool club with a huge out door terrasse and a pool and stuff.. very fun..
-then could sleep at the motel8 not far form the mebers place for those who don't wanna camp.. and perhaps continue the party wh'ere we're staying

if you guys have suguessiton let us know..

we decided st sauveur cause it a nice place and not as much traffic as in montreal.. in motnreal with 30-40 cars we'll get lost and it will be hectic.. if you TO guys wanna go out on the friday night we can got o clubs or somethign downtown..
in st saveur they shoppgin centers for the ones that wanna go shopping also( all the warehouses of companies like nike rebooke, tommy,etc..)

Yep, could be up for a week-end of meet.. friday night more jet-set... then saturday more fun :P

I think we all agree that a meet this big in montreal is a real headache...no wait.. a pain in the ass... so.. outside of montreal, only about 30 minutes off highway.. is not that much.. since there's a "pit stop" planned in mtl for you to eat and stretch your legs, it won't be to hard...it's not a race without stop!

it's not a race without stop!

Man the only way to race is 1/4 mile at a time but highway races are pure jokes...you cruise the first however many kms till you get to last 10km stretch then its on. LOL

we could have one btu it involves more driving. it's on the south shore and is about 30-45 mins away by car.. and we'll be on the north shore 30-45 min away from montreal so it would be a 1h-1h30 drive just to get to the stripe.

Let's not start something else, it's already hard enough to organize the meet, that going more south to go back up north wouldn't be a good idee...
