i'd still go to milpitas...eff the rent-a-cop. did everyone leave that meet?

I think you are confused, do you remember the meets we used to have @ tap x?

Do you remember a couple times when I started specific threads and had like 40-50+ cars come out to tap x?

we never had issues in Fremont

We've thrown multiple meets @ the shop as well without issues

Not once did we get hassled, yet in milpitas they seem to regularly get hassled.

Maybe we should move it to TapEx in the Pacific Commons or hold them at WheelDude HQ.

By the way Zoeb, I think it's time for me to get new wheels.

I'm looking at the 808's and 818's.

haha already?

no problem, just swing by

Zoeb@WheelDude.com · 04-20-2010, 11:57 PM

yea tap x in fremont is a good location, the merchants / security are less likely to complain on a shopping center that is dying and that particular shopping center isn't super active so i'm sure all the merchants would be more than happy to have us

tap x was the original spot and never had issues. The owner/manager of tap x there drives/drove an e46 m3 and he was pretty chill about it. Cops don't bother and just as long as you're not being a jack ass, you're fine.

Across the way, they have bike meets as well.

cyberkaa · 04-21-2010, 02:40 AM

Hmm, good to hear some of this positive stuff. I'm getting lots of feedback on other forums from people who are worried about being harassed by that Fremont cop.

bsamoul · 04-21-2010, 02:41 AM

What is the cop doing? Writing tickets for tints/front plates/ stuff like that?

Most often tint and front plate. He made one guy peel the tint off right there. Also makes people pop their hoods.

His kid died in a street racing case. Regardless, the guy is an asshole.

I've heard someone else mention that. :/

Chowbow · 04-21-2010, 03:37 AM

He can write me a tint ticket, fuck him. I'll get one of my friends to sign it off.

Mahhvinn · 04-21-2010, 04:22 AM

That cop is a serious douche but if the story is true about his kid then a bit of sympathy for him.

The ONLY time I'd say it's super active is around 10pm Friday-Sat because of the Happy Hour @ Little Madfish and Tap-ex haha

why are you selling marvin?

shragon · 04-21-2010, 12:02 PM

regarding tap-x at pacific commons in fremont:

as said, we used to hold our weekly thursday meet there. we never had an issue. sometimes the security guy would roll by, but he never bothered us. we never had any issues with the police either. plus, it was known that other forums/car groups had meets around there as well.

if it was in another part of fremont, then, yea, i'd probably be more concerned.
