Sheeter.I know I saw something about it.Wife's relatives were in town from Texas.Guess where I was.Maybee I'm not paying enough attention to some of the posts.Wife hates motorcycles(donorcycles).Trying to convince her a trike is different and a good thing to have.Her on the back with the 2 dogs.Anyway looks like I'll have to keep in better touch with you and Dan.

[DodgeViper01]

[BACKNBLACK]

Anyone wanna ride up with me

 

[Andrew2KRT10]

I'm not sure what car I'm taking cause I am not sure how many are going with me. It'll be a last minute thing with me.

Sorry guys, but I've got to back out. Enjoy. ***, you can eat that steak now.

 

[XXX BLK]

Keith and Andrew my daughter wants to drive up from SC to spend the weekend with me so want make any events this weekend and working on Sun half a day. Sorry for pulling out last minute but daughter is my priority. Adrian

 

[BACKNBLACK]

Guys I gotta cancel also.I was looking foward to this thing alot..Now I gotta work

 

[CitySnake]

OK...Here's the timing and directions.

We need to be there by 8:45AM PROMPT! It's 90 miles from NYC, so those driving from all points south will meet in the parking area immediately after the Tappan Zee Bridge at 7:15AM . This is immediately after the bridge on the right side of the Thruway (get in the right lane while on the bridge so you won't go past it). We need to LEAVE at 7:30, so if you're late, keep going up the thruway and catch up.


N.Y. Thruway (Route 87) North to Exit 16 (Harriman)

Take Route 17 (left lane after toll) West approximately 25 miles to Exit 113 (Wurtsboro)

Take Route 209 South approximately 8.5 miles to Cuddebackville

Pass firehouse on left side and then make a very sharp right onto Oakland Valley Road

Track is approximately 1.5 miles up on the road on left side.

 

[DodgeViper01]

Oh boy, Tappan Zee Bridge. I gotta remember how to get there. Anyone in the city wanna meet up?

 

[DodgeViper01]

So who is in? Does not seem like many since a few did back out.

 

[CitySnake]

Andrew said the group is near 15. I'll be leaving from 55th and 1st Ave. @ 6:30 AM going up the FDR Drive to the Thruway.

 

[DodgeViper01]

I am out on that note. Way to early for me to shoot over from NJ.

Ya know, I figured the same thing, but once you DO get jammed into that fiberglass hole (they bring WD40 to the pits) you're better off with a wide ass than a skinny one under G's! Wide ass = no side "gaps" for your ass to accelerate! LOL

Here are a few more photos care of Marie and Skeeter:

Skeeter brough this photo to my attention...as proof that one participant was NO MERE AMATEUR!
