If your coming from VA, get on I-95 to 280 to route 80, exit 19,make left to 517 south , make right to route 46 west.

this is off the top of my head but if ure in VA I-95 should run thru ure state.

I-80 is in NJ, exit 48 is a stop where NY/NJ/MA/RI And CT ppl will meet @ 10am

I forgot im in the 8 forum and 8s shouldnt be a problem driving up from VA, if u had a 7 like i do i woulda been like YOUR BRAVE lol

you can hook up to 80 west from the NJ turnpike as well if you wanna caravan with us...just keep going till you see signs for 80w (which i believe is exit 17 of18 on the NJ turnpike)...if you go straight to rotorfest using 280 your gonna pass the hook up spot by 1 exit....

What time is the caravan again...too lazy to look for the details. Anyone interested in meeting up on your way through Staten Island or close to the Goethals on Jersey's Side send me a private message.

While I am waiting for Roxy to make NJ tonight, I was wondering if there is a rain date, since the weather today BITES!!! Also, has anybody talked with Island Dragway about not parking on the grass if it has been raining there today?

We will be linking up by the Mobile Gas station / Dunken Donuts off the Holland Tunnel. We will be arriving there at 845-9am. But there will be RX7 people over there at 8am!

Then we will leave this area and get to Chrism's spot at 10am or so

Hey guys...I TOTALLY forgot about rotofest. Been so damn busy with work and whatnot. I was by my apt in piscataway Saturday afternoon, and pulled up to a light next to another black 8. dude was like "you goin to Rotorfest tommorow?" i was like "****...rotorfest is tommorow?!? I totally forgot!". Good thing I ran into that guy! I'll be at the Exit 48 meet at 10am. That parkinglot is 5 mins away from my parents house. When i saw the sat image of it I started cracking up. The lot behind the smaller building used to be one of my "lovers lane" spots back in HS. Now only if the rain will stay away. I dont know anything about Rotorfest. I've never been. will we be standing around our cars like every other usual meet or will we actually get to go on a track?

Well after waiting months for this date to arrive I end up not being able to go. SOrry guys, but its 3am and im already way to hung over to make this event. Not to mention the horrible fear I have that the dragway iss going to be one big mud pit. I hope you guys have a good time though and take lots of pixks.

A few more.
The view I had of Dillsrotary all day, Chrism's 8, & my blue (which didnt get looked at either because everyone was passing it by for 3MTA3's red) .

Great day, even though I took the scenic route to get the guys that were following me there. That will teach them not to let me lead!
