Anyone interested in doing a New England meetup? What would be the best location if we did one?
>>15211259
New York obviously.
>>15211259
>New England
>including New York
What the fuck
>>15211259
New York isn't in New England
>>15211268
>>15211279
>>15211298
Honest to god just grabbed first transparent image on google images for "new england".
excuse stupidity,
>>15211307
Stupidity is no excuse
Dude fuck yes. That would be amazing. Where's everyone at. CT reporting in
Sagamore Bridge, Friday afternoon about 4:00
Connecticut here.
>>15211396
Aye
>>15211408
we all jumpin'?
>>15211408
That's the bridge from mass to Cape cod right?
I'm in Maine. I was thinking maybe somewhere in Mass since it's the closest thing in the middle.
>>15211453
Too bad there's no good roads here
Central NY because fuck putting miles on my car
Anyone know any good roads in the general mid section of new England?
>>15211531
But central NY isn't New England ;_;
>>15211396
There are other car guys in CT?
I'm down.
>>15211804
albany here. i don't know why i know this intersection but its really familiar. it's bothering me.
>>15212168
Maybe we can have a mini CT meet some time or something if this doesn't work out, but lord knows we need a meet or something
>>15212223
I sound retarded af, didn't mean to use or something twice I swear
Shelton CT reporting in
>>15212339
also down for bike stuff or whatever
>CT posters coming out from the woodwork
I'm home
If all those other people can put together solid meets, I'm sure we can to. Okay so we need to find a solid middle ground for everyone. Does anyone have any recommendations for routes/roads/places to meet up at?

>>15212467
where was this? love a nice dirt/gravel road with good views.
>>15211453
What about some costal driving near Boston. Like meeting in Boston, and maybe driving up or down the coast or something?

>>15212484
It's off Rt 69 north of Amity, just a small spot, but I has some nice rides up to Hamden and back. Most is two lane straights and rising curves. Roxbury has some gems though
Come to New Jersey, we've got cheap gas and no road salt unless Christie declares a state of emergency for 2 inches of snow.
>>15212215
It's on the corner of Henderson st and Clinton st if that makes you feel any better.
>>15212592
Yea stay the hell out of there if you want to stay healthy
>>15211531
>wanting to make other people come to new york and experience our "roads"
Please don't, some people value their suspension.
Posted earlier but finally got a better pic of my car, so Farmington reporting in
>>15211746
NH has some nice highways in the white mountains but that's not quite central, not that CT and RI don't deserve to be glassed
Essex county MA, used to live in central NH so I'm somewhat familiar with northern NE. I'd avoid the coasts and major lakes until fall because traffic is a major bitch this time of year. No idea what MA has for driving roads so no input here
Do it in New York
>>15215756
>>15215770
As of right now we have 5 people from CT, a few new Yorkers, and someone in Maine. I think it all Depends on how far people are willing to drive
I think Massachusetts would be ideal. If you guys are looking for a nice straight boring road then definitely I95
as for good non interstate roads, Im not very sure. Marblehead/Swampscott is a nice area with paved empty roads. Yeah, I'm not very sure
I'm in Hartford but....Are you all autistic as fuck?
>>15215879
only one way to find out, and ayy i used to live in hartford
I've never really been much outta Maine, so I'm not really sure of a good place to meet.
Anyone from Vermont? Rhode Island? Any good places out that way?
I said Boston because it seems to be in the "middle" of New England, much as Lower New Hampshire.
How about Laconia NH? It got a plethora of meet spots since it's a biker meetup town, straight shot from Boston on 93 and seems to be getting the best weather recently.
I'm down for anywhere in New England really.
>>15213006
Fuck Jersey
>>15215744
Farmington NY?
>>15215770
There's shit for roads here
860 up in this bitch
Fuck New England this a CT meet thread now
>>15216092
Nah CT
>>15216227
Ayyyy 860 represent
>>15216077
That's like 3 hours from me it looks like, so yea that's completely doable, and sounds like it has a lot of pros to it
>>15212646
>>15214138
Kek nice to see nothing changes in good ol CT. It was the same before I moved away...
>>15216227
>>15216478
Ayyyy! I remember back when 860 was born... fuck I'm getting old.
>>15215838
...and possibly a MI too, depending on if/when this goes down. Been planning on a trip out to NY/CT/NH to visit family. If I'm in the area I'll be down for it.
>tfw no PA meet yet this year.
>>15217371
Uh last I remember Hakuna Miata was organizing a Knoebels meetup, I'm down for either one but unless its a sunday theres no way I'm making either one
>>15217342
damn i was a tiny little thing when 860 became mandatory. didnt realize its been around for so long
why isn't there a NJ meet this year?
>>15217769
because NJ is a shithole with shit people.

I live in Naugatuck and work in Waterbury.
It's still shit and the drivers are still assholes... including myself.
>>15216077
Im from Vermont, roads here are pretty rough, New Hampshire has some good places though
Salem Mass here.
>>15217896
You live too close
>>15215855
>Marblehead/Swampscott is a nice area with paved empty roads
Dude, Marblehead and Swampscott are mostly 25-30 mph roads through the suburbs. Other than a 5-minute loop around Marblehead Neck there's no "driving" there. I'd say get out into Manchester/Hamilton/Topsfield/etc. Merrimack Valley area is lovely too but I can't go back there.
>>15217901
Wanna play a game of...pretend?
>>15211453
>>15211529
There's some good 'secret' roads around Plymouth. 10-15mins from the waterfront.
All perfectly paved, low day traffic, & no traffic after 9
>>15217927
I wanna hear the story as to why you can't go back
>>15218134
Nothing cool. Dated a girl for two years up there and everything about the place reminds me of her.
>>15218162
Damn man I'm sorry. I know that feel
>>15218134
>GAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYY
I'm at least interested, WNY here. If it's within 10 hours and I can get the time off, I'd probably go. Nothing beats a good road trip.
>>15217863
I used to live in Naugy too! Well, Union City technically.
But seriously... what the FUCK happened to that italian restaurant that was on the right side of the road across the street?
>Pic related, on left.
>>15218594
What part of WNY you from? I can get from my podunk shitty ass state to NYC in 10 hours. You have no excuse unless this meet is in northern ME.
>>15218874
They tore that building down a few years ago. That restaurant hasn't been there for awhile, went out of business, I don't remember exactly when though.
You haven't missed too much. There's still about half of that big brownfield across from the firehouse vacant. The other half now houses a large post office. The high school got a renovation and is supposedly really nice now. We got a new restaurant on Church street called 66 Church and it's fucking good, their bar gets packed apparently too. Oh and they're doing some kind of construction on RT68 on the bridge over RT.8. No idea what that's about but it backs traffic the fuck up and always makes me late for work.
That's about it really I think.
>>15219071
Well... at least something changed there haha. Speaking of that old brownfield, is the old Uniroyal building (the one next to town hall across from the fire station) a museam yet or are they still perpetually trying to raise money to save it?
I know the route 68 bridge well! Prospect atreet right? That area was my old stomping grounds. The elementary school I went to is just up the road from that bridge haha.
>>15219113
The old building they were trying to turn into a basketball museum or whatever? That was torn down too. There wasn't enough money or interest.
Yeah that bridge is the one near Prospect street. I'm like right around the corner from it. I didn't go to Prospect Street though I was in Hop Brook.
>>15219133
What side of the river are you? I was on the East side just off of Route 68.
Hop Brook brings back memories! I spent my childhood summers in the pool behind Hop Brook haha. Hell, I still remember when they renovated it (I think I was in the 1st or 2nd grade and was jealous Prospect Street didn't get renovated either).
>>15219198
West side near the police station.
Spent a good amount of time in the summer with my friends riding our bikes around Hop Brook diamond street and the hills around the area. Used to be a nice little bakery on diamond street but it's gone now. I think it was a specialty cake shop for awhile and it might still be for all I know. Oh and across from Big Y, I forgot what used to be there all I remember is it was a Cracker Barrel a long time ago, that's now a plaza with CVS, AutoZone, subway, dunkin (like the 10th one in town), and some no name convenience store.
The CVS basically just moved across the street. Blockbuster is obviously gone but the liquor store and KFC are still there.
I spent good portions of the 90s outside just fucking around in this area with my friends when my parents got tired of me playing video games. It's kinda of nice to relive the past. It's not the same anymore, hard to say if it's worse, may just be the rose-tinted nostalgia goggles talking.
>>15219275
I remember that Police station and the scandals building it caused haha. If you live in the apartments across the street I'm going to flip a lid! One of my best friends lived there for a while. Chances are the two of us might have been sledding together at the golf course just west of Porter. Sounds like we're roughly the same age haha. Thanks for the memories anon! I miss that town and those days, but like you said it could just be the glasses haha.
>>15219326
Nah I don't live in parkview but I have been sledding at the golf course a few times as a kid. I'm more up in the hills behind the police station. The Polish part of town.
I'm 25 now. Who knows, if we're around the same age we might have seen each other at some point. I barely ever seem to see people from CT let alone my home town on 4chan, and not on one of the shit boards. Cool coincidence.
>>15217896
Hey neighbor
Revere MA reporting in
>>15211259
I'm down to meet anywhere. MA preferred
>>15219344
I'm 28, so I'd say its highly likely we crossed paths. Speaking of the polish, is that Polish club still there at the end of the road North of Big Y? (Probably not since I'm 0 for 2). I remember hanging out on that pedestrian bridge just generally being up to no good haha.
I agree it's a sweet coincidence, not to mention all the other CT br/o/s that came forward. Makes me want to go to this meet all the more haha. Only problem I have is none of my cars will make it to the state line as is, let alone to CT. If this happens in a month or two I will make it out come hell or high water!

Only natural.
But seriously, nice car. I've been thinking of replacing my Miata with a 4th gen but I don't know anyone around here who owns one. What's it like living with an F-body in New England? Are they really that hard to work on the engine?
>>15219792
I don't regret getting my T/A at all. It's my daily 9 months out of the year, but i have driven it through snow before without snow tires and it's miserable. The engine is a bit of a pain to work on. Anyone whos changed spark plugs on them will know. Overall I really like it. The styling is great(to me), engine and transmission are pretty gud. The rear end is a piece of shit, but im upgrading that soon. 9/10 car
>>15219805
The LT1s are even harder to change plugs on, right?
Lemme drive it some time. I promise not to wreck it too badly.
>>15211415
Middletown here
>>15219832
I have 0 experience with LT1s, but everyone's told me they suck to work on too.
My neighbor has an lt1 z28 maybe he can enlighten me
>implying I'll let some anon drive my car
>>15211259
Should do it at the Bear Mt. car show in NY. It's the biggest weekly car meet around and 7 Lakes Drive is one of the most scenic driving roads in the state. I'm there almost every Wednesday. It could also double as a /dbt/ meet.
>>15219842
>implying I'll let some anon drive my car
OK then we can skip right to sex.
>>15219980
A-a-are you cute, anon?
>>15220003
I'm adorable in a Clint Eastwood kind of way.
>>15220074
Sadly anon I'm not into boi pucci
>>15220090
Neither am I, but this is 4chan. We're all Asian girls here.
>>15220114
>Tfw no asian qt3.14 to take on drives
>>15220125
You're reminding me of the 55 year old Korean woman who spent an evening flirting with me over dinner at my uncle's. Pretty qt.
>>15220176
I'm jealous tbhfăm
>>15219377
Did you take that by the taco bell/ long John silvers in plainville? I swear that's what I see in the background
>>15219372
Yeah Polish club is still there. Don't feel too bad about your car mine's a piece of shit too.
>>15220125
>tfw Asian qt 3.14 gf that you will take on rides in your split bench seat car to the drive in and around town
>>15220743
>tfw you know you'll never have this in your life
What day are people thinking for this
>>15221031
I was thinking either something at the end of the month lie (like 20th+) or maybe after the 4th next month.
I had mentioned Laconia earlier, and no one seemed against the idea.
>>15221265
Laconia NH? That's a terrible idea
>>15211396
>>15211415
>>15212168
>>15212223
Manchester reporting in. Lol CT is where its at
Can bring a 10 car wny crew if its not too far. Where we talkin the meet?
>>15221295
Never expected this many people from CT on /o/
Worcester mass heh
>>15221325
As of right now, people have suggested laconia NH, and a few different places in mass, along with a car show in new York, although if you have any suggestions those are more than welcome
>>15221447
>Worcester Mass
NOOOOOOOOOO FUUCKKK NOOOO
>>15221288
Explain. Been there myself. Roads are fine and there's plenty of meet up spots.
>>15221447
Oh god please not Worcester. I only go up for shows at the palladium
>>15222689
I used to live in the area for a few years (Belmont and Gilford) and traffic is a bitch with winnipesaukee and fag week. There are some bum fuck nowhere towns outside of concord we could meet at like barnstead or loudon that'll be desolate. Plenty of well paved back roads around there too but blind corners are a thing
Tfw I wanna go but Im autistic as fug
>standing next to my car

>>15211396
South Windsor / Manchester here, but my car is shit. I'd go to watch though.
>>15223375
>tfw this is you
W-we could be autistic together, Anon.
>>15211259
Gloucester MA here. I'd be game, my work has me driving all over the state atm, so it's up in the air depending on the day.
>>15223375
The best way to get better is practice, and who better to practice with than people from the chon
>>15223482
SPEAKING OF THE DAY
anyone have any idea as to when this could be? Would some time next week be best? What time works best for everyone
>>15223375
You're on 4chan. Everyone here is autistic.
>>15223482
>my work has me driving all over the state atm
If your work depends on driving why didn't you buy a faster car?
Anyone from the 516?
>>15223602
Bumping for a weekend or monday.
>>15224196
That would be ideal
>>15220730
For me it's not too bad. My car needs new tires, my truck a new driver module (and new tires if I were to bring it over, as its rolling on mud tires). My project car needs a trans swap.
Nothing an overtime paycheck or two won't fix haha
>>15219842
My buddy had an LT1. I have no idea what you guys are talking about spark plug changes. Should be fine haha.
>>15221265
Anytime mid-July or after should give me enough time to get at least 1 of my cars ready. I'm looking at a 800-1000 mile trip one way.
>>15221432
A pleasant surprise for me too haha. Bet you didn't expect a Michigan anon in a New England meet either
>>15223375
I'd think this would be much more chill than you'd think. I hate typical car "shows" because they always end up turning into a silent dick measuring contest. This meet not so much...
I plan on visiting family this summer, so I can plan around this as well. My vote would be somewhere in CT, MA, possibly the NYC area, or southern NH.
To try to keep moving this forward, can we at least figure out the state to do this in? I vote mass cause it's nicely in the middle of the majority of people, at least as of now.
>>15223482
Oh wow you're like 30 minutes away
>>15215744
Oh shit someone else from Farmington
Well if people are shooting for Mass then, what would be a good area for meetup? I know nothing about Mass.
Also, would this month or next month be better? Where I am, tourists are crazy right now.
>>15226284
Ayy what's up
>>15226400
Someone recommend Manchester/Hamilton/Topsfield/etc earlier, so maybe one of these? I'm hoping the mass br/o/s can come through on this one and know of the perfect spot
>>15226587
>Hamilton/Topsfield
There is literally nothing there
>>15226400
I can do either. I'll vote for June
I'd say June. July can get fucking hot.
>>15226717
Same F A M
>>15226717
>>15226920
>>15226947
I'm also down for June over July. But can do either.
>>15226602
Any ideas then?
>>15227094
Seems like everyone's pretty much agreed on june so far.
Still need a location MA fags
>>15227103
Nope
There is no good place here in eastern Mass
>>15226284
Oh shit waddup
>>15226602
The towns are shit but there are some good driving roads. When I bought my NA the guy had me drive out on 128 for a while and then come back on some side road that wound around for miles.
>>15227137
Where are these roads then? I haven't found really anything nice.
>>15227111
If Eastern mass has nothing, what about western mass? There's gotta be something good somewhere in mass
>>15227229
Western Mass has the mountains, so yeah, it's got better roads. I went there and to Vermont on a drive once, but I don't remember what roads they were.
>>15227262
Alright well this is a good start. Hopefully someone here knows a nice spot
>>15227229
That's not entirely true, eastern MA has RT 127 and the Mohawk trail which aren't half bad
>>15227451
Mohawk trail but I think this is actually in western MA too
how about something like this?
we should definitely put Quabbin reservoir in the picture somehow. gorgeous spot and not too crowded. nice roads around there too.

CT reporting in.
Not driving 3-4 hours to meet you fuckers in another state.
If people want to meet up thats fine, but do CT people want to set up a separate thing in CT since there seems to be so many of us.
>>15228062
>dividing the NE meet
Too soon
Pls plan one after this one
>>15227534
That's a little longer than I want to be trapped in a Miata, considering the drive to get there. But the route looks nice.
>>15228062
Fellow CT here, every place that's been suggested in mass is at max maybe 2 hours away, so it's really not bad. But yes id also be completely down for a separate CT meet.
>>15227451
Hah, I drive 128 almost every day. That road is actually pretty fun. If its too long,t he route from Gloucester around Rockport and back is actually pretty fun. I drive that when I get bored. Rockport cops are shitheels tho, so be on a lookout in that area.
There's actually a fricking huge parking lot at Gloucester Crossing there which is rarely filled, as well as some beaches. Depending on time of day there's a lot of things in the area, and not a lot of hassle.
>>15228338
Who else is /northshore/?
>>15228344
Salem here. Never been to Rockport
Fellow ct Bros, what do you think about this wrx, I really love the bug eyes and I want one, price seems good too.

>>15228338
Gloucester crossing sounds nice, and fitting for a NE meet
>>15228404
>https://hartford.craigslist.org/cto/5580603286.html
thats a 4000 dollar car, maybe 5000. talk him down. even then you'll lose to civics (Si's). just think 220 hp minus a 20% drivetrain loss, your not dealing with much there boyoi
>>15228404
Since he didn't mention it in the ad, at that mileage I would guess it's about time for a timing belt replacement. The lack of mods and fairly clean paint would suggest to me it was driven by someone who isn't a Ken Block wannabe. I would talk them down at least $1500 to account for the timing belt job and anything else that might be wrong with it.
>>15228616
I agree with this post. But I doubt the person selling is going to take $1500 off. You can try, but you'll probably be paying a minimum of $6500.
Also, give it a few hard turns on the test drive, CV joints like to go around 90k. Listen for it.

We could all go down to Mystic or something one of these days. Although there are plenty of other nice coastal places
>>15229235
Was just down there on saturday. Place is too small desu. I think hammonassett or however you spell it would be better suited, or sherwood island
>>15221447
Didn't you win the spectator drags at Seekonk a week ago?
>>15228344
I am
Who 203 New Haven here?
>>15229250
Yesssss that's the other place I was thinking of but I couldn't remember it's name for the life of me. I'd love to go there
>>15229020
ugh, I'm going there next week for 3 days for training for my job. Gonna be bored out of my skull.
>>15227451
This looks awesome. It's about a 2 1/2 hour from where I am (Auburn Maine) so I'm interested.
Anyone really object to this? Looks nice to me.
>>15227451
>>15229766
It definitely looks nice, any idea on how long it is drive time?
>>15227451
>>15229766
It'd be a five hour drive from central NY to RT 127 but I'd still be interested.
>>15227534
Nice route, coming from CT would be a trip but it sounds like a good time.
How is that location with cops? Don't want to get annoyed with them.
>>15229875
Shitstang pls go
>>15230364
Massive bump for info on cops
Bamp
How's the 19th or 26the for people? I get that the 19th is Father's Day, but Sundays always seem to have less traffic than most days.
>>15232012
Voting for 26th. Busy fathers day
>>15232096
What about the 25th?
>>15230374
Kek he'll probably be the one that wrecks when there's a turn in the road.
>>15232012
>>15232096
>>15232169
I can do either, but voting for whichever works for more people
>>15232012
Gonna be in Florida for the 26th so I'll vote for the 19th.
>>15232012
I can do 19th or 26th. Saturday traffic is shit in this part of Mass, and I have other plans the 25th.
If people are busy father's day, would the 18th work better?
>>15232169
Wait never mind I read my calendar wrong 26th is good
>>15232175
>>15232169
Yeah 26th or 25th work for me
So far the 26th works for everyone who's responded, except one person. Any other issues or recommendations?
>>15232373
Are there any rules for this meet?
We're meeting up, chilling and then going to drive?
>>15232387
No mustangs.
>>15211298
>New York isn't in New England
Bullshit. York is a city in England retard.
>>15232437
No, York is a town in Maine
>>15232387
Don't be a fucking dumb-ass? i.e don't try to do burnout in your mustang then rejoice you have no clue what you're doing
>>15232554
Pretty much this. The less cop activity the better. Oh and don't be a dick
>>15232387
As far as I know that's the plan
>>15232554
>Mustang goes to meet
>doesnt run anyone over
>>15232603
I love fiction too
>>15232603
Every mustang owner I've ever met is a retarded shithead. If we don't want accidents and attention from police banning the shitstang would be a good thing to do.
>>15232666
Top kek
>>15232710
Same for f bodies
>>15232710
Someone's mother got fucked by a Mustang owner
This is sounding pretty mint, 26th it is.
>>15232710
>>15232760
His mom deff got fingerbanged

Probably won't get car ready in time unless it's the 26th of July haha. Hope you guys have a great meet! Just take my advice and DON'T be like everyone in my state. We've been trying for a meet for over a year and it keeps fizzling...
Hyped as fuck
Where are we meeting on the 26th?
>>15232856
Thanks anon! And who knows Maybe we'll have a CT meet or something some time in July.
>>15232891
Yea I'm hoping the poster of
>>15227451 knows a good spot to link up at, assuming we're following that route.
>>15232387
Don't get caught if you're speeding or drinking. Hide your weed when there are other people around.
>>15232894
We go have a bunch of CT anons here! I've been away for so long I can't remember any good driving routes, except for a route my dad would take me along vack when he was working up at Lime Rock Park. But U dont remember much:
>drove by Quassy World
>Sharp left in front of a decent sized dam
>A few twisties further North...
>>15232906
I live up in Newburyport (15-30 minutes away) but I'm not sure about a specific spot that'll facilitate a meet. Not a lot of plazas south of Ipswich
>>15233587
How's Newburyport these days? Used to spend a lot of time from there to Haverhill along 110.
>>15233542
Yea I'd probably talk to some people I know to see if they know any good spots.
>>15233587
Maybe there's a small parking lot somewhere, or something at all nearby
>>15218103
Aye. The good old hidden roads out in you know where secret state Park. Cops occasionally though
>>15222681
>imagining the traffic
>>15227124
Here come dat boi
>>15233643
Yuppy as ever. Summers here so down town is deadlocked from 12-9 because people don't know how to navigate semi narrow streets. I live on plum island so it's not as bad but it's easily the worst time of year to be local
Gloucesterfag here. 26th might be a bad weekend for the Cape Ann route (or a good weekend, depending how you look at it), since that's the week of the St. Peters Fiesta. Basically gigantic street party with lots of drinking and intoxicated Italians. They tend to close down certain streets during the event, so there could be traffic galore. Kinda an unknown factor.
On the flip side, might be some stuff to do that weekend in addition to just the drive and meet as there's usually carnival rides, food vendors etc.
>>15233679
Only really on the outskirts trying to catch people who are still driving recklessly out of the place towards residentials, otherwise the only police I've seen in there has been the environmental police.
>>15211396
Dutchess County Ny reporting in
>>15234248
Oh shit that would be sweet
VT fag reporting in
>kancamangus highway in NH
>green mountain national forest in vt
New York has some pretty suck roads if we can find someone with local knowledge
Also, on the 26th there's an SCCA rallycross at okemo in VT.
I'd totally do a meet the 25th, but 26 anyone who can strap down their battery can race.
>>15234475
Pretty sick roads, not pretty suck roads.
Unless, you know, qt 3.14
So is there an official NE meetup? I didn't see a clear answer. Also it's Bike Week starting on the 13th so traffic might be pure shit in most of NE.
>>15234525
From what I can tell, we're planning on linking up on the 26th, although we're having trouble finalizing on a location/route, also it's going to be somewhere in mass
>>15229606
Whereabouts in the city? also it's not too bad but still pretty terrible
>>15235021
Tfw there's nothing good to do in almost all of CT
>>15236087
>he said there's nothing to do in my state that's not true I have to prove them wrong
> wait but that is true I complain about it all the time
>New York
>Part of New England
I feel so included.
Rochester NY here. Would totally be down, but I'm going to Super Ameri-Meet and then continuing west and never coming back, so it'd have to be in the next 3 weeks kek.
>>15237573
1000000% accurate
>>15237965
It looks like it will be the 26th of this month
Tfw anxiously waiting to know for where we're meeting at whole day
>>15241154
Wat. Auto correct fucked you up
>>15241283
Im too hype
>>15241410
Yo trueeee
Bumping to keep Alive
>>15234700
>also it's going to be somewhere in mass
Why tho? The roads and highways are a mess of potholes and cracks.
From Western MA. i've driven the entirety of Rt2(aka Mohawk trail) Some parts are super tight windy twisty wistys others its a pretty wide straight throttle fuck.
Highly recommend. Also Meeting at the base of Mount Greylock, up and over to the Mohawk trail to where ever you fucks want to end up out east.
>>15245495
I've driven rt2 from 95 to Athol. Nice country out there. I don't remember it being too twisty but it's great driving. I'm going out to Clinton on the 25th to a hifi convention/record swap.
Bit offtopic but since there's so many CT people here, does anyone know a good place for exhaust work that wont be welded shitty and wont rape me on price.
Im thinking either a catback or electric cutouts.
>>15245495
So we should meet there? I'm down, and lord knows we need to finalize a place, so all in favor?
>>15245863
Its twisty from the NY border....Williamstown i believe? to about Greenfield.
>>15246883
Is there someone leading this?
Lakes region NH reporten
I'd probably take the vanagon down though and cause some traffic jams
>>15246982
Not really. Just different people helping out with different aspects of it. Although if someone was in charge that would probably help a lot
Must we do it on the one day for like a month where you can race cars with borrowed helmets and virtually no safety prep 80 miles away?
I know there's at least one car with a WAT sticker on the start list.
Any day but the 26th. Do the 25th.
>>15245495
I'm down for some twisty roads. It's a long trip from where I am in CT but I don't mind.
>>15245495
This works for me. Ive got 3 others driving up with me too so theres 4 votes
Alright so it looks like we've finally got things figured out. Any idea on a good place to link up at the base of that mountain? Any ole parking lot will do
Bumping for activity?
So are we doing Rt 127 through Gloucester? Or is it different.
Shooting for the 26th. What time?
>>15252262
As of now all we know for sure is that we're meeting at the bottom of Mount Greylock, then following the Mohawk trail for a to be determined amount of time. Maybe meeting up around 11 or 12? Need to see what works best for people
>>15252767
I'm punching for noon.
So, Bottom of Mount Greylock. Maybe make the waiting time like till 12:30pm? Then we follow the Mohawk trail?
Of course, all cars welcome.
>>15252909
Yea sounds perfect. we just gotta find a good place around there to actually link up. like a plaza or parking lot or something
should we meet at the mount greylock observation tower? it has some sweet views, and is an easy thing to throw in a GPS/Nav system
>>15252767
>Mount Greylock
dang. thats 120 miles away from me and I'm in MA and dont feel like driving it.
have fun guys. the Mohawk Trail looks like a sweet drive
>>15252979
Ditto for me, count me out. That's like the MA boonies.
>>15252979
>>15253023
We could always find a spot closer, I just don't know any places in that state. It's pretty far from me, so I'm always okay with finding something closer
