Bump - more votes would help.

Also, is it going to be in Edison or are there other locations that we should consider?

I like Roosevelt Park because it is central to most everybody and easy to get to, plus they have the BBQ grills and free wasps and hornets. But I'm open to alternate locations. The beach would be cool too. Sandy Hook park or something.

Yes, they're free, but you still need a permit to attract them.

I agree with Roosevelt Field, but don't really know what else is out there.

Hey, if we get 8 people, that'll be the biggest area meet in years. There is one guy I know at the "other forum" who will prob. go as well.

There is also that little park in Marlboro on Union Hill...a few miles down from Raceway Park.

God I hate Marlboro cops...that's one thing I am not looking forward to when I get home.

Edison is nice, especially now that I know where the parking lot that I have to be at is.

Personally, I don't think we should use sheer numbers to define whether it is a successful meet or not. We should use the percentage of people that show up compared to the total people that say they will show up.

No, Manalapan. They used to pull me over every weekend on 18 coming home from my GF (well EX now). They would pull me over, give me @#$@ about my lights, keep me there for 45 mins, and let me go. This happened every weekend until they figured out what to give me a ticket for. Went to court, won, next week, got another ticket for the same thing. Went to court, won, this time Judge Newman told the cop that if I was given a ticket for the same thing again I would be able to sue for harassment. God I hate Marlboro cops.

It looks like May 7 might work, but Columbus and SL didn't pick that as a good day. Be nice to see Columbus again.

Chris DID pick that as a good day - might want to put down the Johnnie W before reading them again.

SL - well, the less said about him, the better.

It's all those Singha beers I had on Sunday.

We need SL because I want to do powerslides in his SLK around the mall again. There's nothing more fun than beating up on someone else's car.

So is May 7th the final day or not? I need to know so I can plan my NJ trip and fill up the other days (I'm just that popular).
