VA/MD/DE Crew - ******* Hot Rod Show May 16-17-18. BIG EVENT!!

[Bonkers]

Hey guys and gals,

The weekend of May 16th will attract a huge number of hot rodders to Ocean City Maryland for a city-wide (or is that long?) cruise. This event tends to be huge with cars ranging from Ricer, to Monster, a few Lamborghinis here and there. Originally it started out as a way to let the locals blow off some speed steam before the season offically started, but has snowballed into the event it is now.

Be warned, gas prices are high and Cops have become insanely intolerable about "Speed Exihbition" but otherwise its a great time.

For the Pennisula members I think this would make a great reason to have our Locals Meeting this weekend as well. Grab a bite then go play with the wannabes.

Post here if interested and I'll work out a good place to meet.

I'll most likely be there on Friday and Saturday evenings.

 

[V10 MOJO]

tell me more. im always up for a drive and ocean city is only a few hours.

On Saturday the 17th I am hoping to meet up with a few locals in Lewes and spend the night cruising Ocean Highway. Both me and Sal plan to spend every waking moment running the loop so if you stop in just drop a line and we'll meet up somewhere.

Steve and Leah will be down in their *snort* vette and we'll probably meet up with them as well.

On Sunday the 18th we're planning a small group meeting in Dover. The people who have already joined up are the ones that rarely (if ever) attend the sactioned events. I am hoping to meet up with several never-been-seen-before-in-viper folks.

Email me at [email protected] for more details on either event.

Hey, guys and gals,
This sounds like an early fun weekend at the beach, BEFORE the
kiddie/tourist/summer crunch. I'm in. Maumi and I will be there Saturday.
Let's give Ocean City something to ROCK about !
Come on down the Ocean Balmer ! and Maryland.. Virginia..

 

[Bonkers]

Okay guys, I just got in from a quick run down Ocean highway and let me tell you this is gonna be great. There are already an estimated 500 muscle cars down there. Tonight alone (at 1am on a Thursday) I saw dozens of Camaros and Mustangs of various years, two Vipers (couldn't catch to recruit), 106 separate cops, and even a Maserati Conv. And thats before the weekend begins.

Zoomie I got your message but its been a rough night. I think the best thing to do is just try to meet in OC on Sat as we'll be about an hour apart until that point anyway. If you want to meet up on 13 (follow 404 in) I'm sure we can convince Sal to wait for use to catch up. What time are you planning to be at the Bay Bridge?

Also if you were driving a Graphite GTS or RT down there tonight please chime in - I need to yell cause I waved and you guys didn't...

 

[zoomie]

Bonkers, Sal, any one else ?
We will hit the Bay Bridge around 11:00 am, take 404 to 13, and can
meet up there if that works, probably 12:30 ??
Is there a list of events, day, location, time, an OC web page, etc. ?

I was there last night from 6pm-12am and only saw Jason from Mr. Tire in Pasadena (Graphite with silver stripes), but was never able to catch up with him. There were all kinds of rides out there.

I did cause one accident! The fellow was pointing and from lip reading, we saw "Oh my god, that Viper....." BANG!!!!

I'm not sure today (Friday) will be happening because of the rain, but based on weather.com tomorrow should be one hell of a day!

I should be there tomorrow afternoon.

See you guys tomorrow afternoon!

Possibly this evening, but later as we have family plans until ~8pm.

Oh good, I thought I was the only one unable to catch him. He must have some greased palms in the that town cuz I was trucking at 50mph and he left my sorry butt...

 

[Bonkers]

Mark, Give me a call when you leave the house. I'll head over to Denton and meet you there (or wherever on 404 we cross.)

Sal, drop me a line tonight after your family function (I work til 4am so don't hesitiate and we'll discuss what plans you made. Maybe the three of use working together can rolling roadblock that Graphite....

I did take the Vette instead of the Viper, the weather was horible! rain and cold all three days. The cruising was wonderful! but taking the Vette was like taking a knife to a gun fight. The top on the viper would have leaked the whole time. Iguess I'll have to wait 'till fall when they do it again. PS the fall show is almost always bigger.
