Bob,
My route is:
I-287 N to I-80W
I-80 W from NJ into PA (join sdufass at Delaware Water Gap rest stop on 80 at approx 11:15 am)
I-380 N
I-81 N from PA into NY
NY 17 W (where we join your group)
You previously stated 1pm at 81/17 split (MP 245), so is approx 1:30 pm at MP 212 on NY 17 OK?
I haven't seen anything indicating docjohn will join the 2 of us.

Bob D. and I will be at the Honda dealership in Middletown @ Exit 4w I-84 to rt17 junction @ 10am. exit 120 on 17. it is first exit after galleria then right back on 17west no time lost only 1 car.
You will be earlier than us. We are leaving the rest stop on 684 north at 10:30 am. It is approximately 60 miles from that rest stop to exit 120 so that puts us there around 11:25
Bob D. and I are set. Please disregard that post. Thank You. See you on the road.

pps: hey, it's almost 4am sunday now, get your ass out of bed!

I think I'll be meeting up at the Falls Motel. I might make the rest stop, but unlikely.
I'll be hauling my Miata up on a trailer. I'll try to make the rest area at 13:30 and The Falls @ 15:00 but I won't be able to keep up with you guys.
As a backup, what is the address of the camp so I can find it on Google Maps.
I will have an empty seat and can pick somebody up at the PA Welcome Center at Exit 310 on I-80 just after the toll booth entering PA. Let me know...

Just to be clear, the empty seat that I'm offering is in my truck... lol

I looked at upstatenyroads . com - is it mile 221 [ not 212 ]?
That's what jives with 'between" exits 63 and 64.
Sorry for my senior/blonde/dyslexic moment
Yes, mile post 221

We may be in for some rainy weather on the way up. This is quite common this time of year. I expect it to be sunny tonight for the lawn display. That' why it is called CAMP GOOD DAYS.
Those of you traveling may wish to bring extra towels and a bucket for quick wipe down of NSX up @ the Glen. Also, maybe adjust your departure times an hour earlier for any of you newcomers to this event for wipe down of the car. Remember NSX's do not rust!!!!
MOST OF ALL DON"T LET WHATEVER YOU HEAR DAMPEN YOUR SPIRITS. THESE KID"S NEED US!!!!

Leaving central Mass within the hour, looks like I'll have some rain to ride through, but the NSX is a car, not a sugar cube. It'll get washed when I get home. I'm not planning on meeting up with anyone to caravan since my route is out the Mass Pike and then southwest. See you guys this afternoon. All have a safe ride.

In 2012, we hit severe thunderstorms on the way; my NSX hasn't rusted yet.:biggrin:
But, I learned something I've since seen as a safety tip: wear polarized sunglasses - they help see through the scattered light from the rain. I was moving comfortably at a good speed, thought it was getting a little dark, lifted my sunglasses and couldn't see a few car lengths ahead.
Sunglasses back on and all was well again.!

All of us
And buy drinks for eveyone, whether it be diet pepsi or "alcoholic" drinks, for those that "imbibe"!!!
Safe travels everyone. I live about 1/2 hour from the Glen and I hope the weather wrung itself out for you. I'd be there with the NSX if it weren't being worked on right now. Have fun and enjoy.
