Default Trying to find Arlington, TX Car meet ups?

Sorry if I'm beating a dead horse here, but I'm new to the area and having difficulty sorting through threads to find car/corvette meet ups in the Arlington, TX area.

I would love to come hang out with other corvette owners and would just like to know days of the week and locations for car meet ups close to Arlington, TX.

Thanks in advance, Austin

I just moved up here from Houston and have not been to one meet. I'm glad you asked this question since all the other ones I have seen are north of Dallas and I am in the Fort Worth area. I have heard of one at a Hooters off Hulen that is on Thursdays but havent had a chance to go by there.

Yeah I know, it seems like every meat is in north Dallas lol. I actually live south of DFW and work a lot so it's hard to make it to any of the weekday meets!

You could drive North to Hurst on Wednesday nights around 7pm. A group of usually 20-30 Vette Guys and Gals get together at Rosa's 2200 Precinct Line Rd., Hurst, TX.

Do you two know about Cars and Coffee Dallas (Plano)?

Next time is 5 Nov 11. You have to get there by 7:30 AM if you want to park with us though - 1st row in on the right from the service road and around the corner - by 8 AM we have probably started filling in the aisle as well!
