Default What goes on in NoVA on the weekend?

Me and a buddy of mine have gone up there twice in the last month just to go, and we've rather enjoyed it. Only thing is, we have been having problems actually finding anything to do, rather it be automotive wise, historical sightseeing, etc. We were talking early tonight about going up again this weekend. Anything going on that would make the trip worth while? I was up there for the last mega-meet in April and seen some incredible cars. Do any of those people ever come out anymore, even though the meets were cancelled?

the people still come out....but the problem is they dont all meet up. if you drive around and get to know people, you can find multiple different meeting spots...but no single big one like the mega meets. Have you been through manassas? there is site seeing(Civil War battle grounds and what not), Old Town manassas, and the BK where people meet up on friday nights and saturday nights. once you are there, the people move in a group from spot to spot....some cool cars and some nice people...but also some ricers and assholes.

Hey guys I also wrote RavenRacer this,

But my friends and I are looking to expand the group of people we hang out with. There is only 6 of us and we need more cars with cool owners to go out regularly and what not. Who ever is up for it just let me know We are in or around the Gainesville area and we go to Manassas, Ashburn, Fairfax, Centerville, and surrounding DC areas. We put together a page because we also enjoy working on cars too and hope to get a business license in the near future as well. Here's the site:

www.myspace.com/team_switchback

Here's us, what we do, and what we drive-

Ryan- Certified Tech (Lexus) and Bank cahsier/ teller
1991 Honda Accord (CB7) just totaled

Missy- Legal binds and contracts
2006 Honda Civic Si (FG2)

Hendo- Reston Hospital security
1985 Mazda RX7 (FB)

Dave- Toyota Parts specialist
2000 Acura Integra LS sedan (DB7)
1991 Honda CRX HF (ED8)


Patrick-
2001 Honda Prelude (soon to be non-SH) (BB6)

Don- Bank cashier/teller
1990 Honda Civic HB

Give me a shout if anyone wants to meet up!

We won't be in any specific place. I've been through Fairfax, Tyson's, Alexandria, etc.. and as far out as La Plata, MD.

We were not "banned"

We ran our legal meet with a permit, and the permit is no longer, and there is no other location large enough to have us with it being able to be free (or as close to it as possible) and legal.
