3/22 is the meet in NY so we may want to go with 4/5 or 4/12...you are right I should have done it myself lol. Anyway, let me rack my brain to come up with some good spots. I'm in though

6spdtl-s

iTrader: (1)

Theres a few parks along 91 that would be easy to get to:

Keney Park
Meadows Park
Barber's Pond

Never been to any of them though.

I am available both dates. However, I am in SW CT near the NY border, so the closer the better! Maybe somewhere in the new haven area?

ok guys I'm gonna check out some possible locations this weekend so if anyone has any suggestions post them up before then.

JMillerUA6

iTrader: (1)

Either date......I'll be there.

Elizabeth Park in West Hartford maybe?? I think there are grills there and there should be plenty of parking.

BG74

That works for me! I'm 10 minutes away

6spdtl-s

iTrader: (1)

another option Carrielynn brought up was the pike. Id rather be at the park though, I think we'd get less hassling from po po.

Elizabeth park is only 2 minutes from me!

Onedaful

Either for me too.. haha im in Cheshire, CT near Hamden for anyone who doesnt know where cheshire is.. Im excited for CT meet though

s_heng_62

I'll have to check to see when I have the weekend off, but I def wanna make it to one of those meets. My boat is stationed in portsmouth, nh, but the car is staying in jewett city, ct til the weather gets nice. I'll still bring it out to meets and stuff, but otherwise she stays covered.

CarrieLynn

iTrader: (2)

^ jewett city is 5 mins from me. I can go over and take it out for a spin for you every now and then, warm it up a little...
just kidding but I'll let you know the details as soon as they are decided

s_heng_62

CarrieLynn

iTrader: (2)

I have a Canon P&S and a Sony Handycam. The canon is ok but not great. Oh and the guys may not want to use it, it's pink

85iroc

Hey Carrielynn the date 4/5 is perfect but location TBD??? .Sorry i'm really new to the area.
If around 1hour drive from Danbury i'm in . Thankz

CarrieLynn

iTrader: (2)

yes, it will be in CT so it will def be within 1hr from you, no worries, myself or 6spdtl-s will post an exact location with address before the end of next week.

6spdtl-s

iTrader: (1)

hahahah dude when we say TBD we mean to be determined (i think thats your confusion). We are looking into a few places, elizabest park in w. hartford and the berlin tpke come to mind. We should have a location in a week.

85iroc

Hahahaha my bad sorry man!. i'm new to azine and to the area too, btw i realize you already added me in already. Peace

playa4real

iTrader: (3)

if you're looking to do berlin turnpike..you could do sage park..thats just about the only spot..or even circuit city since that place should be clearing out pretty soon. how about CCSU?

dechlin

iTrader: (1)

The berlin turnpike sounds like a great spot, very central in the state, but the cops up there are dicks.

CarrieLynn

iTrader: (2)

^ yes I agree but if nobody does anything stupid they should not bother us.

I was thinking something along the lines of meeting up at Sage Park, conversate and maybe some pics, then crusing over to the go-carts or batting cages (something fun!), then maybe some food for whoever is hungry. If there are not that many of us this could be a good time but I do not want it to turn in to a typical night at the tnpk...you guys know what I mean. I dunno I'm checkin out some parks Sun/Mon so I'll let you guys know. I am VERY undecided about this...

Onedaful

Berlin turnpike is notorious for street racing so yeah the cops are always dicks.. it sucks because i bet once they see all the acuras roll in they will get crazy.. hopefully not

Cant wait for the meet

dechlin

iTrader: (1)

The berlin cops always threw people out of the parking lots up there. Maybe because this is during the day they maybe a little cooler about it.

s_heng_62

Carrielynn, you refer to a typical night at the tnpk, what's a typical night at the tnpk? Lot's of street racing or what?

dechlin

iTrader: (1)

A typical night at the turnpike consists of a bunch of punks trying to race each other, or people sitting in the roy rogers parking lot blasting their music then getting kicked out by the cops. Back in the day there was that many cops out there but now theres tons of them looking for this kind of stuff.

Onedaful

Yeah like i said also all the cops on the turnpike are asses because of all the kids that street race at night.. So im guessing when they see us rolling in they will get nervous and tell us to leave or something i can guarantee it

luistypes

If we go to the turnpike I'm pretty sure half of us will come out of there with tickets for our tints.

CarrieLynn

iTrader: (2)

ok ok guys I get it, no tpke. You guys are making me really nervous about ever going back there...I've never had a problem but maybe that's because I am a girl I just thought it may be a good idea because there is a lot of stuff to do there, you can only talk cars for so long.
Anyway, I am leaving now to go check out some parks so we can pick a place this week

85iroc

oh man you just make me worry about the tint, i have 20% around and happy with it don't want to take it off.
CarrieLynn check out some parks here in Danbury cops here are nicer heeeee, actualy i hardly see any cop here, just kidding.
hope you can pick some good location park so every one can comes.
looking forward to that day.
Peace.
