By the looks of the comments, this might be a huge caravan. This. Will. Be. Epic.

And 3 Eblues say what?!?!?!

This is definitely the way to go. Easy ride.

I'm damn excited. I took the Daytona out for some exercise last weekend. Carlisle is gonna be here soon!

Hagan: Oh I 100% agree that was what I attended. I would NEVER refute that :rofl:. I was saving for Chrysler that year, but the money ended up going to PnS because I was chosen to go to that one. Chris and I still had a great time, we met Passt (Nate) there and a few other SRT/Neon owners, but my real goal is to get to Chrysler Carlisle.

Nick: If I can, I surely will. I have a lot of work to do before then.

Jonny: That's the way my AAA Trip Tik took me, routed me around tolls and nonsense so other than the boringness in Northern Jersey, it was an awesome ride.

Where do you guys get off on 81? Are you going to the hotel first, or to the fairgrounds?

We go to the hotel first so we can meet up with everyone. Then we usually get a big group together to go get our fairgrounds passes and such, so that we don't have to do it the next day when EVERYONE arrives.

Get off of 81S at Limekiln Road. That's where the hotel is. It's cool because you'll be able to see a huge line of Neons from the highway :lol:.

yup......me and jeff will prob meet up in upstate ny sometime mid morning then drive down and meet up with everyone coming from farther east on I287S..... From there we will still all have a good 2-3 hour ride together =) .... once we it gets closer to july we will narrow down times after everyone gets situated.

Jeff: 3 eblues is awesome

Crystal: Don't make us make a "Crystal Your Coming to Carlisle" Foundation Fund

Johnny: Happy you got the car out. and no tire mishappenings this year :)

It looks like your hotel is off the Limekiln road exit off of 83 and not 81?

Nick: the car has to be ready by then too :thumbup: I need a tune, a PROPER tune, on my FP Green.

Crap, yeah my bad. I forgot, you get on I-83 for only about 10 miles before you get to the hotel. Exit 40A off of I-83S.

Very true. hopefully all will work out in the next 2 months and a half. if not, you could always bring Nee.

Hey Anthony, do you know where abouts on I-287 you will be getting on. We hit the beginning of it pretty much. So the first exits we come across will be in the low 60's or high 50's I do believe.....

287 to 78 is about exit 20 something. i can meet up around i think it's 42

I was super confused about the exit LOL took me a bit to figure out what was going on. I'm not sure I would drive that far with Nee for a show, I'd rather bring Lucius. We'll see.

Bump. We should start to finalize the game plan. Apparently Mat00ES isn't going, so that makes me the eastern-most 2GN attendee this year. I don't mind driving a bit before meeting up with people.

Get that transmission in! If it gets past 4th of July, I'll come install it for you.

If I'm the only one further out than you, then I don't mind driving to you. I think East Providence is out of your way anyway. If you're not far from the highway, I'll even meet you at your house.
