    Talking Indy Guys Here: Location??

    This thread is to find out where the Indy guys are from exactly, and where everyone is willing to travel to for a meeting.

    I'm in Greencastle, near Terre Haute..
    Indy is the center of the state and has plenty of places to go, like Hooters, BW3's, TGI, etc... There are even some parks we can go to and have a pitch-in cook out, line the cars up for pictures and shoot the breeze. Greenwood has a wonderful park right along Main St. That's just my suggestion. Thought's on Indianapolis?
    Once we find out "where", we can plan on a place and a time to meet up.
    I want to get this ball rolling for something in early Spring....an April or May weekend.

    I live like a block from Garfield park in Indy, it's a good sized place for a get-together.

    During the summer i noticed alot of families go to the playground but its a pretty good sized park so getting over to where there aren't so many people shouldn't be a problem I would think.

    Even though I am from Akron (for the last 30+yrs), I am originally from Greenfield. My Dad still lives in Indianapolis on East 10th St. & I get over there 5 or 6 tmes a Summer. I always keep a watch for things going on in the Indy area and have attended a few Mopar Shows when visiting my Dad. So, if you get something going, I might drop in once in a while. My R/T has made the trip to Indy several times.

    Ok, but Garfield park is a "rougher" area these days. I don't care though, but that's just an FYI. I like the bigger parks thet are closer to the outskirts so you can "open" up the cars a little bit like let's say... Eagle Creek or something. You're like 5 min from the "country" and the cop count is a little lower now that we're "metro pd" now out there. Does this make sense? you know there has to be a little tire turnin'. Lets get some more opinions...

    It would be realtivly rare. My mom actually lives there and I don't make it over that way much. I might do it on occasion though.

    so you're saying i live in a bad neighborhood?

    and who says you can't "open" up the cars a little, you must not have seen that police chase on the news couple of weeks ago. Went straight through the park and ended at carson and troy.

    We could always do like the cool kids that drive their misterbitchis and honduhs and hang out in the DAV parking lot friday night.

    Haaaa... that's true! I guess if it's in the day it wouldn't be that bad. I used to have a lot of friends in that neighborhood and whenever we went over there they would ----- about the crime and general "disrepair." No offense meant so don't take it that way. I was just more keyed in on a point where we won't have to deal with the new Metro PD.

    I know I've said it already and hate to sound like a broken record, but the park I mentioned in Greenwood is very nice with a HUGE park located right along side Main St. where everyone who drives by can perfectly see our cars lined up.
    Also...there's a small trail that goes back from the main parking lot to the actual park where there are picnic tables and grills.
    It's a very nice park and the area is extremely low on crime, which means cops are rare.

    Actually, the stretch of road behind IRP... hmmmm... Clermont doesn't any FT officers since they're all reserve cops. Hell, there's only one two cars for that whole town anyway. ANd the countiy mounties anre never around and to top it all off it's pretty rural. hmmmm, probably get me in trouble just thinking about it..
