Northeast Meet '08

[cubert]

Alright, since the other thread was getting a huge response, and toneloc had the good idea of making a new thread, here it is. Lets get some ideas in, and try and get something that works out for all who are interested. There was talk about meeting at E-town, but lets at least get something started guys...

[Toneloc5145]

So we have to decide on a central location, and also a general date (month).

I don't know shit about E-town, or NJ for that matter, but I do live very close to Skyline Drive (Northern Virginia). It's a very scenic route with good places to take pictures, and its also a fun road, so that's an option if the meet would be held in Virginia.

Anybody else have ideas on locations?

[Toneloc5145]

Bump!

[russiankid]

If the meet is at the end of June I can probably make it, otherwise I cannot.

[markmdz89hatch]

I'm in dammit.

I don't know about going all the way down to Virginia, but I'll go where everyone agrees to meet up.

By the looks of it, we've got about 5 or 6 guys from CT, a coupe from VT and NH, at least one NY, and now a VA, and holy cripe Sam's representin from Louisiana.

Let's get an idea where everyone's at that's willing to make a drive to meet up, and we'll try and come up with something in the middle of everyone to keep it fair for all involved unless some lunatic wants to volunteer themselves to drive 300 mi.

[w261w261]

I'd come, but not too far: <100 mi I guess

I am moving to PA in June so not far at all:cheers:

300miles...eh I may be able to do that.

[88LXi68]

Mark are you volunteering to schedule the meet??? lol I forgot to call you and remind you to look for that combo switch. damn me!

[88LXi68]

I want to see this thing on the road again!

[Toneloc5145]

I definitely won't be able to drive the 3g up to CT for a meet. I still think meeting in New Jersey (Englishtown) is a good place. Its a good 4 hours for me, but its manageable, and its not THAT far from everybody.

[markmdz89hatch]

Guys, I'm not opposed to an E-town meet, but being that we've done that along with meeting at a park for dogs and burgers in the past, it seems that everyone gets a better chance to just hang out and bs with one another when we meet at a park or something like that.

Does anyone live around e-town? Is there a public park nearby that we can all catch up at after watching some pulls at e-town?

How's that sound to everyone? How 'bout all you VT, NH, Maine and Mass guys? Is that too far to ask you to go for a meet?

e-town is just an idea right now, we're still trying to figure out the best place for everyone. Anyone else out there have any suggestions?

damn you for posting that pic Steve, damn you!


Mark are you volunteering to schedule the meet??? lol I forgot to call you and remind you to look for that combo switch. damn me!

No, but I'll bring all the hot-dog buns again this year.

[cubert]

i like the bbq idea...

it would be easier (especially for my POS car :lol: ) if it were further north...but ld definetly try and do etown (ill buy a big pillow to sit on for the ride down )

[Toneloc5145]

The question is, if we do E-town, is anybody going to run there? I know I won't with my stock ass car. lol. If not then it's pointless to have it there, and I also like the idea of a bbq. And maybe we can cruise after that.

[markmdz89hatch]

Steve, you plan on making any pulls if we go there?

...better yet, if they're doing auto-x, you gonna let me move that beast around a few cones? You know I'll drive your car nice, and won't push it too hard.

[88LXi68]

if we went there I would run. I have gotten over the fear of running the car far from home.

[markmdz89hatch]

if we went there I would run. I have gotten over the fear of running the car far from home.

That answers only the first of the two questions.

[88LXi68]

what was the other? you driving my car?

I'll let you drive my car if you get your car on the road and driving under its own power. :wave:

[gp02a0083]

im from that area, there are a few parks around there, and shopping plaza's this weekend tho NOPI will be there , was gonna go with the drift team but i have to move back home and finals to deal with . anyway thers alot of parks within a 20 min drive from the track, plenty of places in howell, jackson, freehold and farmingdale. i dunno what they run on the weekends at e-town, i do know they got drag/drift sessions weds. and thurs nights plus its like 40 bux to run your car or something , if anyone isnt opposed to this we could meet at my house then drive to a few of the parks that are nice in jackson/freehold?

[russiankid]

I won't run just because its pointless, but I may consider it. As of right now I am not up to running it. I will however drive to the meet, I am about 3 hours from NJ so I can do that.

[russiankid]

$40 seems a lot for me. I am going to be tight on money after the move, so I won't run then. I'd still drive out to see someones 3gen do a run. We can definitely meet up at someones house just so we all get together then have a cruise to a park, snap pics etc...

[2oodoor]

Cool folks in the NE quadrant, I wish I could make that.
Russian Kid on what highway is it you can make it from Louisana to Jersey in 3 hours? Delta ? maybe 3 hours ....I may need to look that road up too. lol

Haha, I am moving to PA this summer, so from my new location its 3 hours. If I drove from here(LA), it would take a minimum of 24 hours.

You say that, and a few years ago (ok, maybe like 4) Vinny drove up from the Atlanta area to make the meet here in CT.

[BITESIZE]

Send me a post card guys. lol

[2oodoor]

You say that, and a few years ago (ok, maybe like 4) Vinny drove up from the Atlanta area to make the meet here in CT.

If I was single and knew everybody a little better, I wouldnt think twice about that trip.
You got me Russian kid.. lol, I was going to say three hours would be a stetch even with twin turbines and wings.. lol

['A20A3']

closer to MD !!!!!!!!! :beat: like the one we had wayyyyyyyy back in the day like 4 years ago aha.


that was back when i had a stock automatic sedan aha :lol:

[88LXi68]

If I was single and knew everybody a little better, I wouldnt think twice about that trip.
You got me Russian kid.. lol, I was going to say three hours would be a stetch even with twin turbines and wings.. lol

the funny part is no one from the area knew Vinny. He was passing through to MA to see family so we got lucky and he was able to join the party.

[russiankid]

:lol:

[russiankid]

Alright so if this meet is going to bed held closer to late June early July, I can definitely make it. If it's early June, then I cannot say I can, but there may be a chance.

[markmdz89hatch]

I don't know about anyone else, but I was thinking more like somewhere toward the end of August.

How's that sound to everyone else?

[cubert]

I don't know about anyone else, but I was thinking more like somewhere toward the end of August.

yea..i was thinking this also...

[russiankid]

I don't know about anyone else, but I was thinking more like somewhere toward the end of August.

How's that sound to everyone else?

That will work as well, I start school in September:wave:

[gp02a0083]

same here school starts at the beginning of the September, so late august is fine, is everyone gonna meet at E-town or jsut meet someone else and cruise there ?

[russiankid]

It doesn't matter to me. I may not have my 3gee by that time but I will still come.

[HondaSi88]

I wanna come! i am in the process of finding another 3g.

VA,DC,MD,PA and maybe NJ is ok

[russiankid]

Bump!

So any dates yet?

[gp02a0083]

or location for that matter :dunno:

[russiankid]

Bump. Come on guys, lets get together. I am in PA the 14th and my car should come in around the 19th, so after that it would be cool!

[markmdz89hatch]

Ok, so how's Saturday August 16th work for everyone?

Still unsure on the where, but if we could at least pin down the when we're that much closer.

[cubert]

i can try and make it for then...but i think im still gonna be working saturdays...

[russiankid]

16th is my mom's birthday so I can't come out that day.

[russiankid]

Alright guys, I am going to try and make it out to this meet. It is held June 22nd. The details are at this link.
http://www.tristatetuners.com/forum/showpost.php?p=914266&postcount=1

Here are the rules:
http://www.tristatetuners.com/forum/showpost.php?p=20717&postcount=1

So basically, don't be an asshole. No burn outs, revving your engine, clean up your own mess, and respect everyone.

If anyone wants to meet up prior to the meet so we can roll together just let me know. I will post in here as time comes closer if I am 100% sure I am going. So far, it looks like I am.

[88LXi68]

it is amazing how many people DO NOT follow the simple rules and ruin it for everyone.

[russiankid]

it is amazing how many people DO NOT follow the simple rules and ruin it for everyone.

Yeah, that is why if any of you guys come out, please follow the rules. I don't want 3geez to get a bad name because you cannot follow some simple rules. This will be my first actual meet that I will attend,and since I told the guys on the other forum that I may be brining some people from another forum; I want to make a good first impression.

[3G Jester]

Id be happy to look at my schedule. whats the date? :)

aug 16th?

[russiankid]

Id be happy to look at my schedule. whats the date? :)

aug 16th?

I won't be able to make it on the 16th, haven't heard from anyone else, so not sure yet.

[markmdz89hatch]

That was just a date I pulled outta my ass to see if it worked for everyone else, or if someone had any conflicts with it.

Sam's mom's b-day trumps a 3G meet, so let's try a different day. My boy's b-day is the 30th. I also have a b-day party to go to on the 23rd, but I might be able to wriggle my way out of it..

How does the 23rd or the 9th work for everyone else?

Hey Travis, where the hell u been buddy? Are you back in CT again?

Those dates should be fine for me.

Anyone coming out to the meet I posted?

[Toneloc5145]

The 9th works for me....The 23rd is close to when i start school so that would be iffy. Still gotta figure out the location because that's a big deciding factor for me.

[88LXi68]

i should be good for either date

[russiankid]

Any word on the location and date?

[mano14]

hi i want to go to ok

[markmdz89hatch]

hi i want to go to ok


Where are you located?

[mano14]

bethlehem pa

[88LXi68]

I know not everyone is interested in going to the track, but how about 1 of the 2 honda days?

E-town is aug 16th a sat
Atco is sept 27 a sat

[russiankid]

I know not everyone is interested in going to the track, but how about 1 of the 2 honda days?

E-town is aug 16th a sat
Atco is sept 27 a sat

Both are kind of far from me, 16t definitely will not work for me.

[Low_Rida]

way to far for me hahaha

[gp02a0083]

ill got to either atco or e-town

[dinhscot]

where is th Northeast meet being held? as i like to attend my first one :wave:

i'm thinking right now time and place is still being decided? I'll love to attend where ever, Philly or NJ work best for me

[russiankid]

Alright guys so lets get this meet rolling. Its already August and we haven't even spoken about a location. For you CT guys, how far are you guys willing to drive?

[Ayeobe]

Woo, sweet it hasnt been held yet. Though my ride isnt really gunna win "best in show" I'd love to stop by.

Location: Montreal, Quebec.
My ride could be featured as the last of the surviving QC 3geez?! lol..

You're willing to come out to the states?

[Ayeobe]

I found out ill need some repairs done, and whatnot.. Also im not sure about my passport situation. I sent my app in a while ago and havnt heard back.

If the car is in shape for it and i can cross the border, and have the cash, Hell yeah.

So, when we meeting? *aka how long do i have..heh*

[russiankid]

Not sure if this will even happen. If we have 3 people up for a meet, its pointless to get this thing going. Lets see how many people chime in, then we can go from there.

[cubert]

The thread should be changed to "The neverending discussion about the northeast meet" :lol:


Id definitely be down to go now that I have a reliable car...

My BMW will be running soon.:devil:

[mano14]

http://[email protected]/img399/1240/picture008kz3.jpg im in pa were we meet

[russiankid]

We need to set up a location, not only that we need actual potential for a meet. Its kind of hard to setup a meet and then only have 3 people show up.

[markmdz89hatch]

I'm still in. Sadly, the hatchie will not be running or registered by then.

(Complications with registration, and the 'get it running' fund has been running on fumes for nearly the past 2 months, and has finally run completely dry about a grand short of the finish line.)

Well thats okay...it looks like Ill be driving an Acura and Russian will be driving a BMW...it will be the 3geez meet minus the 3geez....

[russiankid]

I can still bring the 3gee to rep 3geez, but I rather take the BMW on the longer trip.

[gp02a0083]

we really need to have more than one or two actual 3 geez going to this

[russiankid]

Indeed. I'll probably bring mine.

[cubert]

.,.,.,.,.,.,.

[cubert]

ok..so if this is gonna happen we need to get the ball rolling....we have to at least get a rough idea of who when and where....

[cubert]

going....going....gone.

[russiankid]

Yeah this won't happen.

[cubert]

sucks too..i was looking forward to it..


oh well..

[russiankid]

I wouldn't mind meeting up but I just started school, I have testing coming up, projects, college, going to be very busy.

[HondaSi88]

since i don't check this site as much.....if this does happen someone please email me

where in NY are you?

[clark_486]

id be up for a meet if its not too far south. Id be coming from Central Maine, near Augusta. Also let me know if anything happens on this.

[syclinsam]

Who can meet in or around Philly?

I'm coming from central PA, it seems like there are a mix of responses from PA, NJ & NY so Philly seems pretty central for a fairly wide area.

What do you need to call it a meet? What happens?

I am willing to call around and find a parking lot to meet in, then line up and drive through the city get some pics or find a restaurant to line up in front of. (like they do in my area when the NHRA comes to town)

I know the weather is nasty now but if you're not snowed in who cares? We get together sometime in Feb? It would get it started and maybe we can do another this spring.

[markmdz89hatch]

welcome to the board man. Philly might be a stretch for a bunch of us because you left out the CT, Mass, VT, and NH guys (I think even some RI and Maine too), who would have a very long ass ride to get there.

Anyway, trying to arrange something in the winter is always a pain because the one thing you can't predict is snow, and unlike rain (in the summer/fall), snow is not really something you can just work through and still hold a decent meet. Not only that, but who wants to hang out and shoot the shit when it's -12° outside?

I vote to try and get something going for summer. Knowing all of us (it would seem that us north-easters are all procrastinators and last-minute'ers) if we start planning it now, there's a little better chance of actually doing something.

mark, what do you care about snow??? your protege has heat and wipers!! :)

[cubert]

yes...lets try and get something together..


I vote for summer as well...If its warm enough I can ride the bike :thumbup:

[markmdz89hatch]

mark, what do you care about snow??? your protege gas heat and wipers!! :)

...exactly my point. I plan on taking the 3G, which doesn't have either of the two amenities you mentioned. Prick.:cheers:

that would require something besides the mice in your garage to power it. :wave:

I held a vigil for 'mice of the 5 prospect garage' last week because they all decided to go for a swim in the 5 gal. bucket of spent motor oil I had in there. Not a good scene. But thanks for you insensitivity. I repeat: Prick! :cheers:

...no actually it requires a friend of min who has a shitty ass '88 coupe to drag his lazy ass to my house (once the air thaws out) to help resurrect my sad hatch.

If Mark's car is running i will have to have a boosted B20A running as well then....LOL

I have not seen Mark's car run in a long time!

Yeah yeah yeah, I know it's been a while. What was it? 2004 I think was the last time it was on the road. In its current state, I worry that I'll ever be able to get all the parts back on it. it's basically non-existent forward of the firewall.

:violin:

[RobT5580]

LOL you better get working on it.....

[russiankid]

I am in the Oxford area, which is about an hour from Philly. Meeting in the summer is better because my 3gee has bald tires and if it snows thats bad news.

come on man...live a little! :lol:

[syclinsam]

Thanks for the welcome! I've been "using" since 2005 but have been working overseas for the majority of the past 4 years. The site has been my outlet when not home and able get my hands on my 3gee. So thanks for the outlet!

I realize thats a long ride for you guys I was thinking the PA, NY, NJ, maybe even DC guys (if there are enough on here) to get something started here Mid-Atlantic. It might be easier to put together a New England meet and then if there is some success we can do a North Eastern meet together some time later. (the summer would be best for that bigger meet when the weather is way better for driving)

I think a single day event (or even just an afternoon), might work a little better to start. Philly was just an idea, if we get say 5 people together willing to meet in, i don't know, harrisburg, oxford, manhatten, baltimore, or anyplace. We can toss places around a bit. Lets aim for at least 5 people and a place where no one has to drive more than an hour and half or aim for 6 and no one drives more than 2 hours. Just something simple (

Getting something started seems to be the tough part. Anybody out there willing to give a simple small meet a shot?

[syclinsam]

maybe I should start another thread titled mid-atlantic...

[russiankid]

maybe I should start another thread titled mid-atlantic...

Where do you live?

[Toneloc5145]

I would be willing to drive to PA for a meet. I'm about 3 hours from Philly but less than 200 miles. Not bad at all.

[russiankid]

Then you live about two hours from me.

[Toneloc5145]

Are you south of Philly? If so, then yes. I'm 45 minutes from D.C. and an hour or so from Baltimore if that matters.

[russiankid]

Are you south of Philly? If so, then yes. I'm 45 minutes from D.C. and an hour or so from Baltimore if that matters.

I am about an hour from Baltimore as well. Ever heard of Oxford, or West Chester?

[Toneloc5145]

I am about an hour from Baltimore as well. Ever heard of Oxford, or West Chester?

No, but your about 2 hours 45 minutes from me according to mapquest. Thats about the same amount of time it takes to drive to my college, which is nothing. We need to get a mid-Atlantic (NJ, PA, MD, VA) meet going, since driving to Maine or Connecticut for a meet is a far stretch for me.

Yes we do. I took my 3gee out for the first time in the snow. I was spinning ike crazy so it needs to be a good day for me to take her out.

[syclinsam]

Sorry I was outta touch, I was busy this week test driving and buying an 89 se-i sedan I found in the marketplace. I keep getting "Why would you buy the same car?" These are not the same car, one is a 86 LX-i hatchback and one is a 89 SE-i sedan. "ooo riiight" but with that look in there eye like i'm not firing on all 4. o well.

I live in Wellsville PA. Between Harrisburg and Gettysburg just off route 15. Looks like Oxford is about an hour and 20 mins away. I've got no problem driving further to meet up at a place that would be easier for russiankid. Toneloc seems up for a drive right? I'm going to try that mid-atlantic meet thread I mentioned see if anyone else bites.

He lives about 2 hours from me, so I am pretty much in the middle of you guys.:flip:

[cubert]

[gp02a0083]

[russiankid]

[markmdz89hatch]

Time to rename this thread to NORTHEAST MEET '09, fur crissake!

holy shit Hal, does that mean you're going to show up? (Not that I've got any room to talk. At least yours is in one piece and still driveable. Right now, what carnage in my garage is the definition was what NOT to do to a 3G.)

...this is the thread that will never die!

:birthday:

[w261w261]

holy shit Hal, does that mean you're going to show up?

Haha. Well, maybe. But I might not make it because:

1. It's too far from where I live
2. It's too close to where I live
3. My ball joints are bad
4. My balls ache
5. I have to work that day
6. I don't have to work that day, but have to fix my ball joint
7. The goats ate my insurance card
8. Gas costs too little, so I'm not sacrificing enough.
9. My wife doesn't let me out of the yard on nice days.
10. My wife doesn't let me out of the house on rainy days.
11. My hard drive crashed.
12. My oven might melt down.
13. My dogs might pee on the floor while I'm gone.
14. My prostate might explode during the trip.
15. I'm shipping my car to Germany so I can get $5,000 to decommission it.
16. I'm uncomfortable crossing over into NJ. The gas is watered there.
17. I hear the Amish run puppy mills in PA, so I can't go into that state.
18. You get just a violation for less than an ounce of weed in MA, so the
state is probably overwhelmed with reefer madness and I'm scared to
go there too.
19. RI is too small of a state, makes me nervous.
20. I'm welding my rear doors shut, cutting the B pillar, and making gullwing rear entrances where the windows used to be so I can have a long coupe. The world is full of spies and traitors, and I'm afraid of my innovations being pirated before I'm ready to show them at the next SEMA show.
21. I'm afraid to drive on Sundays, because all the curves are full of drifters going out of their lanes.
22. Not enough loose women at 3G meets.
23. Too many loose women at 3G meets.
24. My car suffers from the ague.
25. My Main Relay, Window Relay, TA sensor, UCA or LCA or Strut Rod or Rear Swing Arm or Sway Bar or a few dozen other bushings might tank, my coolant hoses, a/c hoses, p/s hoses, gas hoses might leak. My tires might not make it because they're bald, my windshield is cracked, or might get cracked, my radiator might leak, my headlights won't go up/down, my oil leaks too much, my clutch slips, my ECU blinks 6 1/2 times, my wheels shake over 50 (but they smooth out over 125), my Bose amplifier might break, my firewall might catch on fire.
26. My doctor says I worry too much, but maybe I can bring him along.

Sometimes I need to work these things through, so OK, if it's not more than 113 miles away, and it's a nice day, and more than 4 people are going to show up, and I don't get Lime (Rock) disease that conflicts, and the 2008 meet is held before 2018, I'll come.

25. I suffer from a few small fears.

Sometimes I need to work these things through, so OK, if it's not more
than 100 miles away, and it's a nice day, and more than 4 people are
going to show up, and the 2008 meet is held before 2018, I'll come.

Well said.

So that's a maybe then?

['A20A3']

BUMP!

how far is annapolis, MD from everyone?

[cubert]

8 hours, and 450 miles...too far for me :(

[markmdz89hatch]

8 hours, and 450 miles...too far for me :(

Bullshit.

['A20A3']

we should have a meet in annapolis maryland.

sometime soon.

who's in?

[russiankid]

If you can find me some wheels with good tires for Under $250 then it can happen,lol.

[88LXi68]

[russiankid]

I think the last link is a guy I know. I know two of those tires are bald.

['A20A3']

we need to get a meet going. on some realness. the last 3geez meet i was at was in 2003.

[cubert]

Bullshit.


I plan on taking my truck to the meet..and there is no way im sitting in that thing for 16+ hours :lol:

['A20A3']

bump for a maryland meet. :thumbup:

[Joay]

If we get this set up for a Friday or Saturday in the summer I'm all about it.

[cubert]

random bumpage...


i no longer have a truck to take the meet....so it will either be the TL or *gasp*...a VW :lol:

[russiankid]

I should have the 3gee. I am getting tires sometime next week, or at least I hope.

I did drive it today. Nothing is better than an old healthy A-series screaming at 6k rpm, gets slammed into the next gear, and screams some more.

['A20A3']

BUMP!!!

MARYLAND!!!! :beat:

['A20A3']

ttt

[cubert]

shhh..we cant talk about it too much or it will never happen :lol:

[russiankid]

We need to get a head count of who will actually be able to meet up and drive 2-3 hours for this meet.

Let me start:

1.Russiankid
2.
3.
4.


The reason I am doing this is because if we have 3-4 people, that will be a pretty pitiful meet.


I know there is a park in New York which is 3 hours from where I am, which is south PA. I am not sure if you have to pay or not but once we get a better head count we can start searching for parks and calling around.

[cubert]

im in as long as the drive isnt too far

[russiankid]

im in as long as the drive isnt too far

What do you consider far?

[markmdz89hatch]

i'll do 3 hrs. ..but that's max for me, as I got kids and don't want to stick my wife with them literally all day.

[cubert]

im guessing this is probably gonna end up happening farther away than im willing to drive. Ill just hang back, see where it ends up happening, and if its close enough ill come :thumbup:

[russiankid]

How far are you guys from New York? I know we have some members in VA so that would be a fairly far trip for them.

[cubert]

what part of NY?

[russiankid]

http://nysparks.state.ny.us/parks/info.asp?parkID=73

[cubert]

Its about 230 miles, and around 4 hrs and 15mins for me.

[russiankid]

I am assuming thats to far? I am only an hour shorter than you. It also depends what car I take to get there faster.:cool:

[cubert]

I think a lot of my decision making will be based on when it is...4 hours is a little far, but I live in the sticks, so I have to deal with it :lol:

[russiankid]

So do I. I waste so much gas going out compared to what I used before I moved out here. :dunno:

['A20A3']

i'm in maryland, so NY is outta the question for me sadly.

[russiankid]

See thats the problem. Anything relatively close to VA/MD is to far for CT, and anything relatively close to CT is to far for VA/MD.

[88LXi68]

I think that is why we have always attempted to get together at Englishtown because it is almost in the middle.

BUT, if anything is going to happen a date and location needs to be set now so that people have time to plan accordingly.

[russiankid]

Is there anything coming up on E-town?

['A20A3']

PA is possible.

[cubert]

Well..like I said before, for now im gonna say im out...but if it does ever come together and its close enough, i may go.

['A20A3']

what about Ocean City, MD?

sometime this summer?

i'm gonna be down there with my whole car club of like 15 hondas for a week in june, on my vacation...it would be nice to have some more honda guys come down there.
