Well I'd be willing to make the trip out there if I can get some buddies from our local car club to go with me. Possibly a turbo supra and a s/c cavalier.

If this is Z/G only then it's okay, we'll pass. Thanks

I'm not sure of the address. I do know it is exit 3 off the Mass Pike (Rt90)
Friendly's Is directly across the Intersection as you come off the Pike
Hope this helps
Mike

The exact address is:

21 Southampton Rd
Westfield MA 01085

If you use Google Earth to check it out, Google has it in the wrong spot, north of the Exit. Its just south at the end of the exit ramp. If you were to blow the intersection coming off the exit you would nearly drive right through the front entrace of Friendlys.

Default About non G/Z cars on the drive.......

There has been a bit of commotion about whether this event is strictly limited to Z/G's, so here's the official take.....

This is primarily a G/Z event. A totally open event has a very different feel. I know that if I opened the flood gates and we got a boatload of Civics and WRX's to sign up, it would be a different and less appealing scene to many.

However......I don't want to deny some real driving enthusiast who is really excited at the opportunity to hang, just because they own a different car.

The solution is to take the middle ground with the "Private Club" approach. Just as a non-member wouldn't be able to go on his or her own to the club, but they could go with a member, we'll do the same with the run.

So...if you are a G/Z owner and you have a couple of non Z/G friends who want to bring their rides along with you, that's fine. On the first run, a buddy of mine came along in his Audi S4. But, I don't want to publicly just open the event to anyone.

Neil are you going? I don't see you listed yet.

Hey John, I put a thread on G350Z.COM to draw some interest. I would expect to see some attend.

Speedracer please put me down on the list. As the list grows to do you think the start off point will be able to handle the growing number of cars?

There is already a thread on g350z, but the more interest, the better.

Yes, the start off point can handle the number of cars. The parking lot is huge.....too big for a Friendly's really. Plus, I'm sure a few people will come up and have breakfast. I'll post some final agenda details this weekend.

Again.....Friendly's restaurant on Rt. 10, Westfield, MA. DIRECTLY in front of you after the toll booth at Exit 3 off the Mass Pike.

Yes, there is a thread on www.g350zforums.com, but until this morning, there was not a thread on the ZGCA forums (www.g350z.com)--two very different sites.

I will not be meeting you guys at the Friendly's, but I will be meeting up in Worthington, MA at the general store (on Route 143).

Where are you located in NYC, as it appears quite a few chaps coming from NY based on the list.

You could also join up with the CT caravan. If all goes as planned, I could have a meet point in Stamford, Northbound on the I-95. I am hoping that my Z will be ready on schedule.

Thanks Speedracer; keeping fingers crossed

Default Mountain Run 2 - Final Details

Hey All

Looks like we're gearing up for a good sized event. Some final event details:

Meeting Point: FRIENDLY'S restaurant on Route 10, Westfield, MA. Exit 3 off the Mass Pike (I-90). Straight after the tolls is a traffic light. Go STRAIGHT at the light, then turn left into the Friendly's parking lot. You can see the Friendly's dead ahead from the toll booth.

Meeting time: Any time you like but we will depart PROMPTLY at 8:45am. Come early if you want to have breakfast at Friendly's before we head out.

For those wanting to come up the night before, you can try one of these places to stay:

Hampton Inn, Riverdale Road (Route 5), West Springfield 413-732-1300
Days Inn, 437 Riverdale Road, West Springfield 413-785-5365

Both these places are on Route 5 (aka Riverdale Road) off Exit 13 South on I-91, minutes from the Mass Pike (I-90). The Mass Pike is Exit 14 off I-91. Once on the Mass Pike WESTBOUND, you are about 5-7 minutes from Exit 3. Do not miss exit 3 if you are going westbound on the Mass Pike. The next exit is 30 miles down!!!!!


******************IMPORTANT!!!!!!******************

The final weather check for the event will be on FRIDAY, SEPT 22 on weather.com. If it looks like RAIN or MORNING SHOWERS, we will cancel, and I will post this on FRIDAY NIGHT. Afternoon rain isn't a problem and we'll still go.



We will stop several times along the way for people to regroup and take breaks. The first segment of the run (about 12 miles) is a little slow and boring and is really only to get us into the hill country, so bear with us.

There will be a stop for gas at this point.

Prepare yourself after that for 100 miles of twists, turn, sweepers, switchbacks, dips, drops, straights. The last 5 miles of the run will make you feel like you are driving your car on a rollercoaster.

Finally.....no crazy driving please. We all want to return to do this another day. We will keep a brisk, but in-control pace. The roads are fun, but we are not on a race track. You will also see lots of cows.

Stratton mountain resort will have some bars, restaurants, shops etc. If you have a significant other, it will be a nice time for them too, if they can deal with the occasional bursts of speed!!!

See you all soon

Your event organizers

If any of you guys want to meet up off I-91 at exit 10, if you are coming that way, send me a PM. Perhaps we can get a small caravan going.
