Rotorfest Caravan (MA/RI/CT/NY/NJ)
Well after discussing some ideas with fellow club members in CT and MA. I thought about getting a caravan together to go to Rotorfest2006. Last year we went we had a good turnout for NY and NJ(Even though most NJ guys never showed up, a few did).
So this year our meets (NYC RR) are getting pretty big our last meet had 24+ rotary powered vehicles so now people know we have meets and we get good turnouts.
I was extending our meets to CT guys but its too far for most of them, but for Rotorfest they have to pass thru NY regardless so why not meet up with them.
The MA and RI guys got to get eachother together and work out your caravan. The CT guys are right in the middle so they can work with either state representatives.
So lets discuss this and work something out and meeting points along the way to link up.
We NY and NJ guys usally meet up quite early by the Holland Tunnel, so if time is going to be an issue we can work something out to get the MONSTROUS caravan ever seen together.
Our Rotorfest carvan had about 27 RX-7s, with 4 non rx7s.
So please MA , RI, CT, NY and NJ cats lets work something out.
EDIT: I am very good with directions, and i wont do this like last year, so let me get a heads up. DONT JUST RELY ON ME FOR DIRECTION, already have your directiosn printed out just in case you get lost or get seperated from teh caravan. If it wasnt for me and another guy last year , no one would know how to get to island dragway. SO just to be safe have your own directions from your home to rotorfest and from the meet up locations to rotorfest just in case.
EDIT 2: Im willing to help you CT , MA and RI guys directions from major highways to our meet up locations in Queens and then Manhattan, so please get all your peoples together and let me know which way your are coming and i will give you better diretions. I want the MA/RI/CT guys to meet up with me in QUEENS, this way you guys dont have to worry how to get around in the CITY (WHich is confusing at certain locations downtown).
Hope to see a big caravan. Hope everyone is interested

Here are some pictures..
This is a spot i picked right next to the holland tunnel. Its a very big street mostly used by COMMERCIAL vehicles. This way we dont have to worry about cops harrassing us just parked.
This is where we met up with the NJ guys at the mobile gas station (Dunken Donuts adjacent for your morning needs)
Look at us causing small town havok. Cops were parkked right across from the cars in the gas station following us around..
ENjoy. (Trying to tease you guys)

^That looks like a real good spot to meet up with the rest of you NJ crew. It's like 20 seconds off the exit, lol, and the parking lot looks huge.
What do you think Jason?
