Default Mid to North NJ Meet-up August 9th or 10th

Okay folks, we have on our hands another infamous Rutts Hut meet. However this time we will be meeting elsewhere for ice cream, photos, and some great conversation (Meaning im going to try to get rides in Andy's S2 and Damiens Speed yellow cab)! Hopefully we can get this going for the 9th or 10th of August. Any of you guys up in North NJ know of any good ice cream parlors with large parking lots?

Emphasis on northern NJ please

Don't forget us NY'ers. You NJ guys need to remind that NJ = armpit of america. I go to school in NJ and like it.

I'm in, of course.

Once we firm up a date it would be nice to invite some non 944 series cars... the more the merrier.

Adrial I totally agree. We should have this meet somewhere near the Wayne area, as it is easy to get to off the NJ parkway. So anyone with an idea for the venue please chime in.

Hey Adrial:
Why do the trees in NJ lean towards the east?

-Cause New York SUCKS!

Too bad most of NY is NORTH and not east of NJ though, Zoltan.

Nice try though.

I'm headin down to Powertech tomorow to pick up my rotors/wheel bearings/KFP intermediates (all for the front only). I could have gotten better pricing but I realized tech for watkins glen 1 is coming up real soon...I assume you'll be there?

Will you be at the Glen? I just sent in my registration today (last day...oops) I heard there's not too much demand for this one though...

Picnic, eh? Sounds like a plan.
The PCA website is a little not working right now...anyone have details about the picnic--where, when, etc?

Christian...we can do the scaled-down ice-cream thing later in the summer. Or, we can do a "Hot Coffee and Porsche meet" in the fall.

Here are the picnic details:

Location: Pavilion Areas, Schooley's Mountain Park, Camp Washington and Springtown Rd, Washington Township, NJ (off Rt. 24 in West NJ)
Activities: Concours (Judging starts at 10:30am), Softball game, kids games & prizes, cake concours, p-car bench racing, socializing...etc.

NNJR provides: Burgers, Dogs, Chicken, Corn, beer & soda

You bring: family members, chairs, softball stuff, sunscreen, your favorite dessert or salad.

concours fee (if you want to show): $10.00 pre-registered, $15.00 at event

Due date: TODAY! (July 31st). I suggest you Email Walter at walterarnold@earthlink.net to let him know you plan on going. I'm sure he'll have no problem if you let him know today.

Once the website comes up, you can use the registration form there. If you need one, I can possibly scan mine in from Porscheforus and email it to you.

Hope that you can make it!

Um, hate to say it, but the Glen event usually fills up on the first day of registration! There is very little likelyhood that you'll be able to make it, especially if you run in Green / Yellow. (Perhaps you were thinking of the October Glen event?) Rule of thumb: if you want to get into NNJR DE events, you must register the first day it opens!

My suggestion is to email David Novack right away (email: nnjrtrackchair@optonline.net) and let him know of your wishes. He can probably at least put you on the waiting list. Show up for next week's tech (Tuesday at Powertech) so you're set with that, and I'll also put in a good word for ya.

Oops, I didn't read that you had to register for the PCA picnic by the 31st. I'll try shooting him an email now, I've got 6 more mins till its August!

Zoltan,

Email sent. Thanks for the good word. I will definetely be at the tech inspection.

I know where your car is...I'm sorry about the scratch on the door...I ahh it was an accident I swear!!! Dont listen to the lies Powertech has to say!!

So you're getting a short shift installed eh? Is that too help you shift faster when str33t racing??

I picked up my parts from Powertech today. Pads (KFP intermediates, they better be good!!), Rotors, front wheel bearings, plugs and wires. Should be good to go!
