DatDoug Posted February 27, 2009 Report Share Posted February 27, 2009 Dont let then name fool you. NW Nissan is putting on the show but there is an ass load of Datsuns @ this meet:cool: Not only do you get to see the bad-ass 350z's and 240 drifters there are just as many Datsun/Ratsuns that show up. So if you are not interested and have not been to this show then get off yer arses and out from underneath your Dattos and cruise on down cuz this is a killer show with a ton of cars! Bring yer parkas tho cuz it can get Antarctica cold next to that water:eek: Heres a few shots of last years meet.

If no snow we would be driving the Bluebird or another 510. depends on weather. Sounds like a hoot. How many cars all togehter show up? Quote Link to comment
moparvwfreak Posted March 4, 2009 Report Share Posted March 4, 2009 last year i think it was over 600. i was there but not in my datsun. to bad this year i cant go. Quote Link to comment
Bleach Posted March 4, 2009 Report Share Posted March 4, 2009 Its a mass of cars meet. There are three fairly large parking areas and last year they were all overflowing with people still driving around looking for a spot. Unfortunately (IMO) the organizers encourage anyone to attend and that has led to other forums organizing groups of cars to park there too. I'm not talking about Datsuns, more like Acuras, Hondas, VWs, ect. Yet they still advertise it as a Nissan meet but its more like a overcrowded import meet now. Quote Link to comment
Guest DatsuNoob Posted March 5, 2009 Report Share Posted March 5, 2009 That sounds kinda Ghey..... but I'll probably still go, I thought the Honda scene was dying off, guess not (sigh) :rolleyes: Quote Link to comment

You do realize my comment was not directed at you or people like you, right? GG is not just seeing a few Nissan enthusiasts show up in their "other" car. We have VW clubs showing up in 8 Jettas. None of them have any interest in Nissans. They're just looking for a place to strut their stuff. As if they don't have enough meets of their own. If a friend of mine who drives a VW comes in his R32, that's different. I saw entire car clubs of other makes showing up just to show up and take up space. Some people like how big the meet has become. I'm thinking if things keep going this way I just wont' go anymore. 2005 and 2006 were the last good years of the Golden Gardens meet.

the510keeper Posted March 21, 2009 Report Share Posted March 21, 2009 so all you Datsun freaks, its on, My girl Vicki and i are leaving Thursday noght from the greater Sacramento area to Washington.

Golden Gardens is a fun meet but it's not aimed at datto's in any way. Maybe 3% of the cars if that! Last year was a pretty good turn out, maybe 30 datto's throughout the day :D Hey I used to drive down to Portland for every BBQ AMI put on so I can see why you are coming up :D James could that be you?

kennysgreen280z Posted March 23, 2009 Report Share Posted March 23, 2009 I went last year... in one of the VW convoys. Oddly enough most of the guys do post on NWN. Anyways I parked the stupid audi down the street because no one wants to see a stock diesel audi. I dont think im going to go this year. I've got projects to work on.... Quote Link to comment
