North Caravan
  1. Rest Stop immediately after exit 12 south bound on I-95
  2. Parking/Phone booth stop immediately after Tappen Zee bridge

East Caravan
  1. LI stop
  2. Lodi Exit, NJ

North & East Caravan merge at 287 & 80 intersection. We'll figure out the details, as we move along. What about the South Jersey & Philly group?

It takes about 2 1/2 hours from Stamford to Long pond.

We definitely need more entries for the car show But it appears that we will have a very positive turnout for the diehard auto enthusiast; a weekend with super folks to mingle with, interesting mod stories, best prices for mods, best garages for your mods, lots of first-hand experiences in strengthening the VQ35DE power house – the available options currently on the market, a peek into signature body kit options; and planning for those who are curious and have interest in going flat out, letting off steam on NASCAR’s most challenging NE track; with the longest straight-a-ways.

Bob Osborne “Pocono is an extremely tough race track for veterans let alone rookies.
Carl Edwards was the sixth driver in the long pond’s NASCAR history to win from the worst start position; he started in the 29th position. The Pocono International Raceway is known for its different degree of banking, three straights, each with a different length; A track design that produces fender-to-fender action in the turns, 200 mph slingshots on the long straights and photo-finish endings.

I am sure everyone's watching closely, especially Goodyear, as they had 23 blown left-front tires at Pocono Raceway about a month ago. Goodyear attributed it to the curbs.

"When you right-front tire problems, you're pretty sure you know why that is," Jeff Burton said. "Camber (leaning the top of the tire in, to make the car turn better) and air pressure are really important on the right-front. So you can be conservative when you know that there is a potential problem.
Can't wait for our turn, next year at this past June ZGCA Pocono track weekend, we made lots of good friends; had the opportunity of bumping into the Mattiolli family, and everyone was helpful and easy to talk to. Great folks! It is the heart of the auto club/racing crowd, warm & big Join us for the weekend, low cost accommodations available. Anyone planning to stay over the weekend?

You're in Irony; that is the fun part about these meets, you keep meeting new people, new Gees & Zees. It never ceases to fascinate me how a single common interest, a car, the VQ35DE brings about new experiences, new friends, new direction and a great adventure.

The funny part is that I don’t even have my Zee with me, as it is about to undergo major transformation; but the journey that it sparked for me is still snowballing, even while tripping in my trusty pathfinder; another VQ35DE powerhouse.

The Irony of it all. Looking forward to meeting you all.

Going north or is it NW; Whiteplains/Westchester towards Nyack/Rockland the stop is immediately after the Tappan Zee on the Nyack side, just by the shoulder of the road.

Now did that sound right? Will confirm time.

PPS: Thanks for keeping the header updated, Neil......I can't even reach it.........you're definitely much taller
