NY/NJ/CT/PA Spring kick off run

[Dave Colangelo]

Its that time of year the weather is getting nice and our cars are coming out of hibernation which means its time for a run. Our hawks nest run last thanksgiving was a great time and we had a great showing. I know many of you are heading to Hershey this weekend unfortunately I can not make it. But ill give you all some time to install your new pars and get every thing tested. So here is the plan,

SATURDAY MAY 19 we will be doing a run.

We have a few options,

1) the usual bear mountain run
2) the hawks nest run again
3) feel free to suggest some roads

Last time we were able to do both the hawks nest run and the bear mountain run it was a great day.

So lets start out with this tentative plan,

8AM those in the area meet at the Rye Playland Parking lot. I know its early but the hawks nest is not close.

8:30AM we hit the road for the Chillis we met at last time (ill find the address). If memory serves it will take about an hour and fifteen to get there.

10AM arrive at the Chills and meet with the Jersey group. This worked out well last time we even had a random 997 passerby join the group.

10:30ish we leave the Chillies and head towards the hawks nest. We can meet with a final group there at the burger joint we met at last time.

Noon: we head out to do the Hawks nest run. We will grab lunch there on the way back.

After lunch it is up to people to do what they want. Some of us headed south for the bear mountain run after and some people headed home.

This was a great run last year and I would love to do it when the weather is nice. I know its far far in advance but if I post now people will have time to plan accordingly.

Regards
Dave

maybe we should make this a monthly run? we had over 20 cars at any one time on the run near Thanks Giving last year, nothing like a good group of Porsche guys hanging out and driving

Same plan as last time,

1) Meet at Rye Playland around 815am. I will arrive around 800am ish. We will hang out there a bit, get a few photos and what not. Then we will leave Playland around 845-9ish.

2) From Playland we will take 287 to 23. There is a Chili's right at the exit of 287 on to 23. We will meet there to join up with any one that got separated, or any one that is coming up from jersey and wanted to go the 23 run with every one. We should get there around 945ish.

3) 10:30ish we will leave the Chili's parking lot and head north towards Port Jervis. we should be arriving some time around 11:30. We will meet at Arlene & Tom's Restaurant
265 East Main Street, Port Jervis, NY 12771-2209. We will be getting lunch here later as per suggested.

4) we will hang around there for a bit wait for people who wanted to meet around there then head out to do the RT.97 drive around 12:15-1230ish.

5) We will then come back to Arlene & Toms for a later lunch. After that if people are up for it we can do the RT 97 drive again, head home or go do any other drive people may want.

I think this plan provides enough stoping points that we can meet up with every one along the way some where. Feel free to come for part of the drive, or all of it. Take lots of pictures, any one taking video I would like to coordinate a way to get it so I can edit what every one takes, together.

We're heading over from Rockland County, and will meet at Playland.

Sound like a fun event, and the weather is supposed to be great.

I'm going to drive down from upstate New York, so I'll meet up with everybody at the Chili's Resturant.

Is anyone going to the PCA Northeast Region autocross in Mass. on Sunday?


Bill

[James Chimney]

I will be there and look forward to meeting you and every one, I will be at the CVR Auto Cross in Hartford, CT on Sunday (closer for me) maybe you should try that one once?
talk to you on Saturday
