unfortunately guys I am going to back out - was at my parents this weekend and was reminded that next Sunday is the start of Rosh Hashana, so we have lots of family coming over, etc and I won't be back in time

Hvae fun and take lots of pics!

 

Yeah I know that exit -- I bought the Z at Middletown Nissan down the road a bit (turning left at the exit). We could do that -- I think that exit is about 15-20 minutes from where I am meeting a few people. From there we probably have about 50 minute drive to the Friendly's.

 

Perfect. I'll be at the Mobil in Cromwell around 7:15 AM. We'll head up from there and meet with Greg at Exit 37 and then head to Friendly's from there.

See you Sunday.

 

Vic,
I saw your post. I will be at exit 37 at the Mobil gas station. Do you think Jeff will be going?

 

Greg, I'm going to send Jeff an email and will let you know. I'm going to wait for the New Haven caravan and will plan to leave the Mobil in Cromwell around 7:30 to catch up with you. PM me your cell number again.

Also, do you have speedracer's cell #? This is in case we get delayed leaving your stop. We want to make sure that they don't leave without us.

 

lol didnt know i was thrown into a caravan till now. as for the route i plan taking, i have no clue so far. ill most likely mapquest it and ask someone who should be there before me for a cell number. if theres anymore boston members going PM me or something if ya wanna meet up but i must admit im not the best at being on-time.

 

um-mmm.......dragged in not thrown in you seemed like such a good sport from your post....so we figured.....why not


Ok...ok...boston group....listen up....... considering.....nick might need a little nudge out of bed and out the door ....everyong, get his cell and give him a honk ....hear

I won't have my Zee ready in time for the cruise, as we're waiting for the most updated BB-700 to get in.......but See ya

POO..... It looks like rain all weekend.

 

now...now...ken......you know all about our weather scientist, if they say rain it means sunshine and if the forecast is sunshine it means rain......don't fret...anything could happen between Tuseday and Sunday......the winds could be blowing out to sea and the low pressure could hold off the high pressure off somewhere up there in Canada

 

You have an good attitude.... <- fingers crossed

 

There are all varying degrees of "rain". Actually if you look at the detailed forecast for the region we are driving in, it actually says 40% chance of showers. While I doubt it's going to be a bright sunny day, a few showers mean nothing. Remember, we will be in our cars most of the time. Very different from a beach meet or BBQ, etc. While we may have to slow things up a bit, remember, Formula One teams still race in the rain. I'm not worried. Now......if the forecast was for "Heavy Rain" like the day of the Cape Meet in May, that would be a different story, but that is clearly not the case.

In fact, it was supposed to have rained all day here (western MA) today, but we haven't had a drop yet.

we are still on!!!!!!

 

Believe you me, it's coming your way as it's already spitting in Manhattan

I am just listening to the weather forecast now and channel 3 (Hartford) is saying partly cloudy with chance of showers. That is way different than pouring rain.

Everyone coming up I-91. I believe "The Big E" is going on this weekend so traffic maybe a little slow through Springfield.

 

how did you figure me out so easily? lol. yea im the type of person who needs a nudge but for this the Z is giving me the nudge cus i really wanna have fun with it.

edit: i made such a brief first post because i asked all my questions and stuff in g350zforums.com thread.
p.s. if it still seems like rain, i dont think ill go because its a long drive out and back just to drive cautiously on rainy mountain roads.

 

30-40% chance doesn't count.

Shouldn't be too bad. Usually the traffic is on the route there, they get off I-91 pretty quick. At least, lets hope so.

 

If you've been looking at the weather forecast for the upcoming weekend, you know it isn't exactly going to be a bright and sunny day. However, let's not get paranoid remembering the horror story of the weather at the Cape Meet last May. There is 40% (not 100%), CHANCE (not definite) of SHOWERS (not heavy rain). In any case, this shouldn't deter you all from coming one bit.

As I said previously, this is a very different event from a "meet" where people come up, park their cars, and socialize or BBQ outside. This event is a DRIVING ACTIVITY, and as such, we will be in our cars 90% of the time. If the roads are a little damp from time to time, no big deal. Sure we may not be able to let it rip like on dry roads, but it will still be plenty of fun. Some of you may also be surprised how well the tree-studded mountain roads are protected from the few sprinkles that might be present.

Anyway, the bottom line is that this is in no way shaping up to be anything even remotely resembling a major rain event, so let's not get all paranoid/bummed out. Everything is still most definitely on.

 

The point is that the weather forecast is just so sketchy about what is actually going to happen and when and where it is going to happen. It may be raining in one place and not in another, etc. The forecast now only calls for a 40% chance of thundershowers, which are usually in the afternoon and temps in the low 70's. Don't miss out. I don't think we will be "driving cautiously".

 

No problem for me, as I'll have to join you guys with my 4x4, till Vinny gets done with my mighty VQ
