Just wanted to see if there was any interest in a convoy to hershey from the CT, NJ, NY area, I have never been but thought it would be fun to go up as a group.

What was horrible, the weather or the event in general?

Quadcammer

I think it was the weather that caused the event to suck. It was cold and wet, so there was basically no one there, the items at the swap meet were generally for older cars and over priced, and that was about it.

The Brewmeister

I was there once when it was cold and wet and it did suck. The vendors didn't put out anything of value because they didn't want it to get wet. I left with nothing but a chill. The heat in the car felt good but, I didn't shake the chill until Allentown!

Toddster,

I may join u for a road trip but likely won't decide til it gets closer.

I go every year. Great way to start the "driving season." This year Hershey will be the first stop of a 6-day trip down to the Porsche Experience Center in Atlanta. Planning some nice back road driving, going through the Tail of the Dragon, etc...

Generally the meeting spot is the Vince Lombardi rest area on the NJ Turnpike at 7AM. That makes arrival at Hershey around 10AM.

Vincent Lombardi rest area 7am it is.

We can't control the weather, but in 2015 the weather was beautiful. Big turn out.

P-daddy

Magdaddy- are you reserving a spot for the Rennlisters again?

Toddster

That's the plan.

We can update the thread as the weather forecast becomes clearer
If some Connecticut folks are on this thread we can meet up before heading to NJ for 7am

Is anyone interested in carpooling from the Boston area? I'm not 100% sure I'm going, but it's more likely if there is a carpool. Since the meet opens at 7:30am, I'd like to drive to Hershey the night before and get an early start. I have a bunch of stuff I'd like to sell (OEM heat exchanger, exhaust and CIS system from a 911sc, etc.) so I'll be taking a minivan.

Missed it last year because of the hip replacement surgery, and recovery. Planning on it this year, still thinking a Friday arrival at Casa de Cactus for legal beverages and inappropriate behavior.

I went last year it was crowed and slot of fun

Bump. One week away

Toddster

Anyone stay over before?
Curious if the Hotels will be sold out if I want to crash that night and drive home in the morning.
