Gentlemen,
Allow me some historical clarifications; Fieros West was started looooong BEFORE Fiero Phil left Sunny California for an even Sunnier Nevada. Heck, Fiero Phil was present at the inception (1st meet/Craig Park-Fullerton,CA.). It was there that we elected Nacho as our esteemed first President, waaaay back when, Nacho was the first of many great Leaders of Fieros West.
Thank you.
As for starting a car club without having the car: I've only owned a... legally registered to me Fiero... for less than six months TOTAL ever! But, have probably driven more Fieros than 95% of the people on here, just ask Anthony. So don't let not having a car stop you - but don't be surprised when they don't elect you as President.
That said, the club Fieros West, has consistently had great folk as members over the past 20+ years, and we have had many, many memorable activities, and trips - most recently being a big BBQ in Tehachipi. Now, you all are welcome to start as many Fiero Clubs as you like (the more the merrier, I hope) and I sincerely hope that your experiences are as fun as ours has been over these past 20+ years with Fieros West but; there will only be ONE club that can be considered the original, and it's in Southern California. Anyone and everyone is welcome to join, all we ask is you don't be a squid.

Let me make this perfectly clear once and for all.
First FIEROS WEST was started by four people Me (Kooljess), Roy Benjamins, Keith Huff and Neal Huff.
Nacho came in a few years later. And yes yours truly was the first President of Fieros West of Southern California (that was our official name at the time) we renamed our club after Phil left the scene.
As Anthony said...we are a very different group of guys/gals (car club) we do not have a set date on having meetings. But, when we do have our GTG every club members wonder why we don't do this more often. Well, ya but some of us are busy doing things and we priorties (did I spell that correctly?). We did have our set time of meeting back in the days but things change. That doesn't mean our club is not together? Every event we go to even today they still regards Fieros West as the club to reckon with. Car shows and events Fieros West always wins the most member to attend that event. And yes we have our own pace on doing things. We've always been known to make an entrance. It is what it is. Live with it. Few people hate us (that's ok we just ignore it cuz we know who we are) and some really do like us. And for the people that do like us...they stick around and join in on our fun....and I think that is what Fieros West is all about. We help each other out when one of us needs help with their Fiero. We rag on our Fiero too.....hey, we know Fiero!!! You gotta have a sense of humor to drive Fiero. And so with that thought...Ted it's nice that you want to start another Fiero Club....you are still welcome to our beloved Fieros West and will keep you in our email list. To let you know what Fieros West is up to. It's nice to hear from you again brother. How is your Fiero doing? Let us know if we can help you in any way.
Next GTG will be in San Diego people!!! We've been invited by our southern bretheren. So let's show them what we can do as a group. Let us all go pillage the place...it's what we do...just kidding. Let's have some Southern California sun and hospitality!!!!
Amen,
Kooljess------------------

We also have our very own very high end club garage in Tehachapi, CA...formerly in Marina Del Rey, CA.

But hey, go ahead and start your own club...you'll be the only member just like your Solstice Club you started without ever owning a Solstice.

They don't just don't know my new handle...nice try SMOOTHGT.
You are a real Magnum PI.
I just talked to the Co-owner Steve Childers.
I told him about this and laughed and said, "F- them know-it-alls".
Then he told Chris and they both laughed!!!
OK will do Steve, I'm still laughing at you too!!!
I will keep working closely with WEST COAST FIERO and laugh at you buddy.
Nice try.

THX Jessie...Missed you at the last MOD party.
These K-I-As just refuse to accept the FACTS I posted about Fieros West and how we are informal and contact members THROUGH E-MAIL.
Keith Huff and Neal Huff (Neal is the original founder of FOCOA, Phil Huff took over operations) are just like I stated the founders of FOCOA and later Fieros West.
HEAR ME TX???
HA HA HA HA HA.
I'm laughing and all the K-I-As are now silent...the way they should be!!!
INDY stop being so disappointed and try being a little proactive in the club by getting on the E-mail list as I STATED EARLIER!!!!
Then maybe we will see you and those driveway Fieros we all have heard about and never seen.
HA HA HA HA HA
SMTGT...I'm still laughing at you trying to be Magnum PI.
Do you own a Red Mera by any chance???
HA HA HA HA HA
You guys need to Relax and try to learn something when an old timer like me gives you FACTS.
Laughing will help you get rid of that feeling of WRONG in your stomachs.
TED - Glad to see you are being proactive and getting the Santa Clarita group going.
Now be proactive and get on the Fieros West E-mail list so you can get some SOCAL members to your events and vise versa.
85GT3.4Track4spdCar - I stated TED never owned a SOLSTICE when he started that club and left the Fiero Club for a while....never said he didn't own a Fiero...I saw that gray GT in all its glory one too many times.
I even helped Ted get some parts for it. He wanted to copy my Pontiac Fiero GT Prototype and was always asking about it and checking it out.
HA HA HA HA HA...still laughing at SMOOTHGT. Magnum PI and his MERA!!! I crack myself up![This message has been edited by Johnny Smith (edited 06-30-2010).]
