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...
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?

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

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.

I'd come, but not too far: <100 mi I guess
I am moving to PA in June so not far at allOriginally Posted by markmdz89hatch

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.

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

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

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.
-Mark D.
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.
-Mark D.
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.

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.

$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...

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.
-Mark D.
Send me a post card guys. lol
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
