Sorry, I was in rainy Ocean City since Thursday. :-?
Yeah, Dad said that if people are willing to come here for a meet, then why not. (Although he's not happy about me taking another day off from working on little bro's TTA resto...) We've got plenty of yard for folks to park in, a 2-car garage (currently containing a TTA shell and a million misc parts for it), and an outside patio. It might be a little chilly to be outside all day, and the garage isn't heated. (yet) We don't really have room in the house for everyone, but you'll have a warm place to pee if nothing else.
With that said, if you want to come here you're more than welcome. We're about 1 hour from Philly, 1 hour from Harrisburg, 2.5 hours from Baltimore, and 3 hours from NYC. I'll hook you guys up with some "can't get lost" directions. (We live in a rural area about 4 miles off the major highway.) Reading is local to a whole bunch of highways - I-78 and I-76 being the major ones. If I can give a 21 year old girl directions from NYC and she didn't get lost, I can get you here from wherever you are.
Adam/Andy - I'll let you guy fight over who's supplying food. :lol: We've got a grille, so you don't have to worry about that.
What dates are we looking at? FYI - Sat Nov 2nd is the final Grudge Racing day at Maple Grove. If folks want to race, maybe we could do something at the track, then head to my place for food afterward. (No real room to crash for the night though. Sorry.) My schedule and their website don't list times, so I'll check into it if you guys want to go that route.
And if you want to have it somewhere else, that's cool too. I'll be there either way.
OK guys, sound off!

That sounds good, I was thinking about hitting the Grove on Nov. 2nd, a few of my car club friends are taking their cars up. I was not sure what I was going to race (camaro or Ty), but leaning towards the Ty. I still think we should do it Nov. 10th to keep it more of a social event. If a few of us want to meet up at the Grove on the 2nd, that is cool too. I just think it will be nice to meet a few SyTy folks.
So what do you all want to eat? I am willing to bring burgers, dogs, chicken, bratwurst, doesn't matter. I have some burger and hot dog buns left over from a previous picnic, I can bring them too.
Lets get this together before Adam has a coronary

Hey, I'm up for anything. Aaron's house sounds fine to me. Also, any date (as long as it's a saturday or sunday) is cool for me. If it takes 3 hrs to get there from NYC it should take me about the same amount of time, give or take a 1/2 hour. Most likely I'd take 78 the whole way.
What do the rest of you guys think? This thread was boomin for a few days and died out. Hope you guys aren't having second thoughts.

I'm not gonna have a coronary,I was just trying to keep this going.Anyway,maple grove usually opens their gates at 10am,and I think the grudge racing runs til 4pm.That would be a kick ass thing everyone going there,then to Aarons house,a sy ty convoy,get your cameras out.Anyway either nov.2nd or the 10th is cool with me.
Andy,give me a call,and we'll figure out who can bring whatever food/drink.610-375-8132,best to call on the weekend,and leave a message and your # if you don't get me.
I guess we need to make an official date.Everyone put in your votes. :wink:

So far as I'm aware, Sat or Sun of either of the first 2 weekends of November are OK for us. Makes no difference. (Aside from possible colder weather...) Whatever the majority decides.
Back out to the garage - gotta get the TTA to the paint shop that weekend, got a bit of work yet. Maybe the second week would be better. :lol:

Hey if anyone is interest in going to BeaverSprings Raceway www.beaversprings.com tomorrow I'll be there along with REnz ripping shit up. Gates open at 5pm.

Good thing your thinking about having this meet in your backyard. Because we all know you won't travel more then a couple miles. Probably becasue your Ty is a piece of shit or you can't read a map. I believe I invited you out to my garage 4 or 5 times for sy/ty gatherings, yet you always said it was to far.

Spencer,
I never said it was to far,you just always had your petty ass gatherings on weekends when I was busy.I'm willing to go where ever they have this gathering,it just happened to be close to me.So what if I don't want to put extra miles on my ty anyway,kiss my ass.I don't drive it in the rain either :fist:
So anyway,now that is out of the way,I'm up for either weekend,but the 2nd sounds better.Would be cool to have a bunch of syty's show up at maplegrove.

Don't sweat it, the bulk of the PA sytyers that get together on a regular basis are a bunch of jerks :evil: ! I have driven to Spencer's garage in the rain and snow on several occasions for wrenching sessions. Turned out to be a total waste of my time. I didn't learn ANYTHING new or meet ANY decent people. I wouldn't be so irritated if it wasn't a 5 hour drive for me ONE way to Lock Haven. That's time that I will never get back...
However, there is one other PA person that has been even more taxing on my time that I met at Spencer's place. I can't believe that I have been to his place well over a dozen times since we met almost two years ago. These commutes to PA have put almost five thousand miles on my truck in two years. And WASTED eighty plus hours of time driving to and from.
They NEVER do anything fun either. The best that they could do was get ten syty owners (four from out of state) a track reserved for four hours to their selves... Then there's all that lame "street racing" that they go to on the weekends when they go cruising after wrenching all day. Can't believe that I even shared a room at this years NATS with these losers. I NEED to get a better group of people to hang out with :wink: ...
