ok, now im going to chime in. ive been on this site since it was first introduced and have watched every meet single handedly be destroyed by ricers and wannabe's catching wind of us having a good spot and taking it over, blaring music and burning tires. im so sick of it, it makes me want to give up my passion. i thought QSL would be good, and it was for 2 or so years. now its gone down the shitter. it began its descent into crappiness when they first brought out the karaoke machine. sure it was fun for a week or two, but then non-TR people starting coming outside, pushing us out from our own area. we were all friends with the outside waitstaff and some of us even hung out with them outside the venue. once the numbers dwindled, they moved the karaoke inside the place and we slowly started returning to QSL catching wind that the place stopped sucking so bad. then there was the sunglass hut, sticker booth and classic cars in our areas. we were furious. then came the DJ. and then shit hit the fan. the assholes started coming into the parking lot in droves; squealing tires, revving their motors, etc. and now instead of policing the people, they decide to charge for parking?! we all overlooked the shitty inside food service, the worse food and the shitty drinking policies in an effort to keep semblance of the one good spot we thought we had. and now they want to deface us, catagorize us and segregate us? fuck that. i know i wont go there again untill i know its back to the way it was.
and now some random 'team ssp' is going to make it right? who are you guys? you have no influence in this feild. noone knows who you are. what have you contributed to the scene? "oh but were going to provide a safe haven for saturday nighters"... yeah right. you know who is going to show up to a meet like this. you know the crowds you will attract. why do you think TR picked thurs night? so we wouldnt be intermingled with the pathetic, mindless fops driving the streets on sat night. not too mention that you hear everyones complaints of them turning thurs nights into 'show' nights and you still are going to
eventually charge to come there and have shows? why.. so you can bank? what happened to just wanting to contribute to the betterment of the scene? why not, instead of acting as an enabler for retardation, promote respect and disipline?
you guys make me sick. we started there as just a common meeting ground for friends that live too far away from each other to meet regularly and it was nice catching faces you hadnt seen in a while. on the flip side, it was also nice establishing business contacts and meeting new people. now its been perverted and twisted into another mindless car show generated to please the masses and ruin it for those who originally started there.
you guys have your show, get your 15 minutes of sellout fame and break ground where noone has ever tried previously. omg.. you guys totally nailed it on the head!! hold a LEGAL car meet on a satruday night?>! i wonder why noone else has ever tried?!@#!!
then, once it gets over run, fails, and you are left to cry about how it wasnt supposed to be like that, youll be on here, too, bitching about those who ruin good things, fully unaware that you contributed to the problem. so have fun with your little car meet and dont come back to TR untill its successful for a few years.
