I've never ran with them yet. I wanted to but I had to cross off some events from my calender when someone hit my car.

Trying to find some pics on how that lots looks to see how big of a course they can have there.

Well my autocross nemesis (2nd in points for novice class, I'm 1st ) and good buddy Zack runs their with his Miata and does rather well it seems. So I imagine it is a smaller track then the ones I dominate at with the G. This weekend I'm headed up to NHIS to test out all I've learned this year to beat him on the short track. Previously at NHIS I got my a ss handed to me.

I believe there are autocross events at Nassau Colleseum. That may be a decent halfway point (I don't know where the meadowlands are actually). I don't know of any other clubs between Boston and where ever you are in NJ. Except for the Fairfield County Club (Farifield County, Conn.) that runs near Hartford, Conn.
Nassau Colleseum does quiet a few AutoX's. Some of the clubs have events and allow non club members to run the course also as long as they meet their safety criteria etc.

I've been to one of them that was sponsored by the local Porche club. They use one of the south side lots which you can probably fit two autox courses in.

If you are coming from the north, the Colleseum is about a 30 minute ride from the Throggs Neck Bridge and it's all parkway right up to the gate.

Well I'm just trying to think of a decent half way point for everyone to meet. A 3 hour drive (+ any NYC traffic) would be do-able if I know there is going to be a large turnout. Perhaps someone should post a NorthEast Feeler/Poll to see how far would be acceptable. Think that would be a good idea? I'm familiar with a good portion of the clubs that run in New England & Pennsylvania but not NJ or NY.

If you really want to go all out, this should be opening soon @ Englishtown.

From the site........

The course measures 1.35 miles with 40 foot wide roads over the entire course, except for the 1,400 foot straightaway that is 50 feet wide. There are some great features to this track such as, one 90 degree right turn, a 16 degree banked left turn and a mini corkscrew, which the road dips down and turns left as it drops.
This is a Technical Course. There are approximately 13 turns. Some could be considered 2 turns. The entire course will have lights.
