another unwritten rule for car meets in public places is "if it came in with you it leaves with you" in other words don't be the douche group who leaves 80-100 coffee cups, empty McDonalds bags and other crap around after the meet is finished keep the spot clean that is the only real reason ive seen people get kicked out of spots was because of the amount of trash that was left behind

Ass Blaster: I think this falls under step 4. Don't Be a Duchebag. I have a 1999 Nissan Skyline GTT Nismo JDM Spec, along with that I have a 2008 Glacier Blue Corvette Grand Sport. I could care less about where the car is from so long as it looks nice, has a great history to its name, and has potential to last with you a long time. If your car is European I often will make remarks to the level of detail that goes into he cars, if it is Japanese/ Asian in origin I will often speak to the owner and get to know things about the owners and help in any ways I can in deciding what they what they want to do to the car. And, lastly, if the car is American I often admire the solidness of the cars and just how robust they are, even 40+ years after they were originally crafted.

This is soo helpful. This should be called how to get into a car scene. I can honestly relate to this. I went to my first Car meet last August And it was called "Sumospeed Night Moves" And it was the best experience ever. I didn't exactly make any friends cept for one guy, but the ability to be around other fellow car enthusiasts is a warming feeling since all I am usually around is "normal" people(since I was high schooler). I will honestly say, if you're not an outgoing person, go to a meet, and take pictures cuz some people like that attention and like it when your face just light up at the appearance of their car.

You will be surprised how many people will show interest in your car if you start talking to them about theirs.

My problem is that I feel inferior if I don't know as much about what I'm talking about as the people I'm talking with, so I naturally end up talking less and less because, let's be real, what do I really have to say that will add to the conversation? I may know the difference between a turbo and a supercharger, or even a screw and a roots type supercharger, but I can only name one brand of turbo (Garrett), and I don't know any of the models they make. I've never done an oil change, or a tire change, I get nervous whenever I have to fuel up myself because where I live, you can't pump your own gas. Hell, I had to go to O'Reily's to replace my mom's rear windshield wiper. Though...to be fair, the guy there couldn't figure out how to do it either. I don't go because I don't feel worthy of going. I've gone to one in the past, and not only did I not feel like I had much of anything to say, I felt that I couldn't back up anything I did say. Who am I to talk about racing techniques when I've never even seen a race track in person?

You good dawg. I went to an import nationals show in a Volvo and was walking around the japanese section like a kid in a candy shop. No idea what I'm looking at, but damn it's pretty. Drift events etc. Talked to an old lady, like 80+ who was same as me and wanted to buy one of these 600hp monsters. Best interaction I had there. We got voted coolest club, the fuckin 300 people driving volvo dad wagons and sleeper cars. And it really was the coolest selection of people I'd met in a long time. You just go for the cool people, if someone's being a dick just walk off and go to the next car section, or don't talk to them. Odds are they will be much cooler than the dicks who blew you off in the Japanese area, or likewise (no hate to Japanese cars... but lay off the vapes). A lot of car clubs have a real feel to them, especially based on brand... Go to a car meet with a few clubs and you'll know what I'm talking about.

Am I the only one that stays as far away from car meets as they can? From my experience, if you don't fit the stereotype of your car's class, get ready to be ripped to shreds at a car meet. For example, through high school I drove a 96 Camaro RS since I couldn't afford to maintain a V8 engine. It was auto too since I had to drive through busy city streets daily and a manual would be too much of a hassle in stop and go traffic. Boy let me tell you how many times people stopped to look at my car, realized it wasn't a manual V8 and kept on walking. Car meets aren't about sharing a passion, they're dick measuring contests, it's the sad truth.

Yeah I used to go to car meets a ton. Very interesting place indeed. From my perspective if you and you're car don't fit into the current trends you might as well stay home or go for a nice drive. To much drama at recent car shows to make it worth while. 6 years ago they were decent. But now I'd rather go out and drive some nice roads, then sit in a parking lot for hours doing nothing. BTW I don't have a car that fits in with the "current" trend.

A car meet benefit is getting a girlfriend who is a car girl. Thats why im bringing Midas, my medical truck, to car meets. She is a big beast, emergency amber lights, LED light bars, reinforced bumpers, medical logos. Its used for helping first responders reach their destination without having to go through traffic. She has a 6.5" suspension lift. All season tires. She is ready to go through hell if she needs to. She carries medical tools. Work tools because she obviously has to help fellow drivers. and a winch to help out the guys who are able to stick themselves to something and not get out. Midas can attract all the attention. And no, I dont have small balls. I will be taking advanced medical classes. Im proud to be the owner of this truck. Ima start a website of the crew im starting that includes joining the medical field. Its either you help the people or get the fuck out. She also carries a Cummins Turbo Diesel engine so you can expect a hell of a lot of noise. Im currently working on a new exhaust system. But take the tip of getting a girl. Ride in paradise brothers and sisters. And be safe on thise roads, if not, you may find Midas coming to the rescue.

Hope this story of my worst experience isn't too long. Was on a road trip in my S2000, and at the time ~350 miles from home parked in a walmart figuring out where my GF and I are going to camp that night when a guy pulls up and asks about my S2000 and really loves it and tells me in just a couple hours there's always a car meetup at the home depot at like 9 o clock. I'm kinda intrigued so we go eat and hang out in walmart awhile till the time is right. Show up to a group of about 7-8 cars and people gathered around talking. My gf and I get out and walk up to this group and absolutely NO acknowledgement, nobody, dared look, glance, smile, nothing. I'm like uhh ok this is f'in weird. so I try to open with a joke " I drove all the way from Ohio and this is it?" hoping that joke would start some friendly conversation... well no, nobody even looked at us but just a couple people lowly mumbled about it being early, still nobody made eye contact or talked directly to us. What a joke of a car community that was, so we just left because obviously we weren't welcome.

I feel like every time I go to car meet and start taking about other drivers cars or projects nothing is ever good enough. I feel people are trying way to hard to act cool. I have yet to meet someone who just loves there car and is happy with there build and generally content. I mean seriously you spend 5-10k on top of purchase price of the car and you going to start complaining about it after I told you how much I like your car? Please...😑😑

Met a crush at a car meet and she drove a VW Jetta. We talked very little but it went nowhere until I just got busy with life and stopped going. I was getting ready for a grave yard shift was filling up with gas and saw a car like hers and sure enough I see her and she noticed my bucket dsm😂. Just a friendly wave and we went on our ways. It's funny how we connect people to the cars they drive and we don't even need to say hi lol

My tips for those young enthusiasts who don't have cars is to bring a camera 📸 or just take pictures with your phone and ask questions about how to get into the car community or what a good car to buy for an enthusiast that type of questions that a real enthusiast will really take the time to appreciate and help with trust me.. Other wise smart up with modifications.. Good luck 🤞🏼

Tip: if it's a night meet, bring snacks, battery pack for your phone, and a sweatshirt. Some meets will have food trucks, but be prepared for the wildly expensive prices. It gets cold fast when your at a night meet so stay warm too lol.
