It's funny how many people are all talk (not meaning you guys here). The NER folks were all on me to set up an over night cruise. I had a good 10+ people swearing they would be coming. As of now it seems that we will have 2 or 3 cars leaving from the start and we will be meeting up with another 2-3 cars along the way (or so they say). Everyone else seems to have had "something come up".
Hell I don't care if It's just me and my girl. Rain or shine I'm going to Philly for a late night cheese steak!
See you in Philly if you are coming!

welcome to the world of organizing car events
If 50 say they are coming, expect 20. Those are the rules.

Alicia ---- Is that some algebra equation or something.....
People who say they are goin = X
People who say they wanna go = y
Take the total of X + Y then divide by .4 and that equals Z
That number Z is the potential of attendees!

If it does not rain. If it rains then Z = X+Y / .4 - 90%

I found that out fast Alicia. It seems that everyone is "in for sure". Then the day comes and you see who the drivers are and who the forum posters are.

Car guys (and gals) are flaky by nature... If something they percieve is better comes up, they forget all obligations and ditch.
I usually assume for meets a 1/3 to 1/2 rule at best..

Unless it's the BlownEuroz BBQ/Meet. Then we plan on 100, get 150, plan on 200+ get 400+ get a bigger parking lot to accommodate 400+ and get 700+.

You know you are in Philly when you watch random folk get knocked out, and people hitting cars while trying to park.
