I'll be attending the "Plows & Rolls" meet in my 4wd. :smile:

 

[blue_myriddn]

If they leave the snow on the ground, you could do "Donuts & Donuts"

 

[Aaron94T]

When will this blasted snow end? Another 8" tomorrow... Please make it stop!!! We need a healthy amount of rain between now and March to get this crud off the roads. Also the potholes due to this crazy winter are everywhere.

 

[ftuhy]

It just started to snow here again.

 

[passline]

I'll be there next Saturday at 9am. See you there Frank.

[Aaron94T]

Not so fast Rich! Mother nature is not done with us yet.

Not so fast Rich! Mother nature is not done with us yet.

Just came back from South Beach (80), so I'll bring the Audi turbo and Willie. I just hope it is not cancelled. Let's bring our daily drivers to show them off.........

 

[ftuhy]

There's enough salt on the road here to make the world's largest Margarita! The NSX will stay in the garage. And, there's a slight chance of more snow tomorrow. Being that the organizers are F-car guys, they may not want to face the salt either. I'll post updates as I receive them.

Rich - it seems like cabin fever has got you itching to get back on the road! I suppose my Taurus would be out of place, but Woo Li ('08 Chow Chow) would enjoy a ride. Change the event name to Hot Dogs & Cold Donuts?

Bring Taurus (the Bull) because there are always some bulls at the meet. If they cancel, I may go to London and enjoy the rain.
At least then I get to drive a right hand drive Aston Martin on the wet motorway. Gotta love retirement.

Time to buy the tickets to jump the pond. The meet this weekend is officially cancelled.

 

[passline]

Will not make the C&C meet this Saturday. Taking the NSX to Larry and then another TESLA test drive scheduled.

 

[ftuhy]

Rich,
I won't make it Sat, 3/29, either due to a schedule conflict.
Talking to one Tesla S owner, besides all the nice features, acceleration is incredible & eerily quiet. Enjoy that test ride! :biggrin:

All area NSX owners,
Let's get a good NSX showing on Sun, 4/13, at Paul Miller Porsche (Parsippany). I'll post details as I get them.
Frank

 

[The Kid]

I'll be heading up there on Sunday.

 

[ftuhy]

Don't know how to make this a "sticky", so I'm bumping it so people can see the latest updates.

June 28 location details:

Location:

Daytop Preparatory School
80 West Main Street
Mendham, NJ 07945

Date: Saturday, June 28
Time: 8:30 am to 11:00 am

Daytop NJ runs a long-term adolescent residential behavioral health program and educational facility in Mendham. When you enter the property off Main St., there will be kids there to direct you to locations on the front lawn for parking. Daytop will provide coffee and light snacks, and restroom facilities are available.

Please remember the usual common sense behaviors -- no burning rubber or loud engine revving in the parking lot or leaving the premises. We are guests at Daytop and they have been kind enough to let us use their facilities as a courtesy.

Please let your friends know who do not get the C&C emails.

As always, we will re-confirm on Friday in the event of weather issues.

Unfortunately I can't make this one. It was a great gathering there last year on a nice grassy hillside. Some unique cars showed up. Whoever goes, let us know how it went.

This is to bump the thread with updates in the schedule in post #1 for the next 4 meets

 

[ftuhy]

Note that a rain-soaked field at Daytop School in Mendham has forced the Nov 2 meet back to Chatham HS.

 

[Aaron94T]

I was there, but no other NSXers. It was cold and very windy. I was trying to eek out a bit more of the car season but it appears to be coming to a close. The turnout was a bit weak though still some interesting cars.

 

[ftuhy]

Here's the location information update from C&C for Saturday, November 15:

Address: Morristown Shoprite
178 East Hanover Avenue
Cedar Knolls NJ, 07927

Time: 8:30AM to 11AM

The Morristown ShopRite includes the Village Food Garden and their own diner that serves breakfast all day. Additionally, there is a large indoor/outdoor patio and culinary center that can accommodate over 100 guests that wish to dine there.​

 

[ftuhy]

I plan to go tomorrow (11/15) with the NSX. Anyone else going?

 

[ftuhy]

Note: Sunday, November 29 cancelled due to snow and the subsequent car-eating road salt.

 

[gmark340]

Is the event scheduled for Saturday, December 13, likely to occur? I haven't been to one yet and look forward to meeting some other owners.
