Calling all United States Members - Potential Meet Up?

Post by P.S.Mangelsdorf »

So to start off, I am well aware that the most prolific USA members on here are very spread out (I know of NC, CT, OR, CA, UT). HOWEVER, I think it might be useful to get a sort of roll call to understand where folks are that might be interested in an Open Inverter meet up and/or track day.

Here's my thought: Comment below with your state. If you already see your state listed LIKE that reply rather than post again.

If there are enough of us in one general area, I'll see what I can do about organizing a meet.

(Canadian friends, feel free to jump in as well, but I'm not sure if there'll be enough density far enough north for you to join too)

It does seem that there are clusters on the West Coast and the Southeast.

Since the West Coast has Holley High Voltage, perhaps we need a Southeast meet up?

I created a shared Google Map so people could add themselves that way. I've added people that have posted or liked already. This makes it a little easier to see where people are.

There does seem to be a slight cluster in the Washington / British Columbia area, but still WAY outside my 45mi EV range :cry:

anyone with link can edit the map. Add a "marker" to locate yourself.

Since we are in the same metro area, I'll narrow things down and mention that I live in Duluth near Gwinnett Place and work in Alpharetta close to North Point.

Question for those in the southeast:

If there was an EV specific drag racing event (likely 1 day only) somewhere in the Carolinas, would you attend? Would you bring a car to compete?

If and when I finish my car, but I would not drag race it. I would just like to meet with other people doing conversions.

I'm in Los Angeles. Would be glad to get together in the area. I'm also from Toronto, and still visit there often. Thought I saw a few other GTA folks no here. My project is mostly in notes, loose parts and design files right now...early days.
