Sounds like fun....but I'll be heading over from the Allentown, Pennsylvania area after a meeting on Friday. I'm guessing my ETA to the Marriott will be around 7:30pm - give or take - then have just enough time to wash the car before downing a martini with you guys!

Good thinking Even if it's just a hose, that would be stellar. I'll be bringing a bucket and some basic detailing supplies (wash mit, Absorber, etc.)

I might have asked you the same thing last year when you rolled up with those dirty wheels of yours... ...even a torrential downpour couldn't clean them.

no, it's your job to bring the hoes since you do have the AMG and we will be at a hotel on the weekend... (it's the weekend baby, I got the room keys) ...(from the hoop to the big mercedes) ok enough song references. but seriously if you do bring the hoes you will be the man.

2004 Civic Si. FWD for the Win!
So, has any schedule been ironed out for Sunday yet?
How long the autox is going to last? I know that it's going to start oppressively early.

I won't be doing the autox, but was wondering if they'll be doing fun runs at the end - something like dollar runs after the competition's over would be cool.

All the information I have about the autocross can be obtained here:

http://www.nnjr-pca.com/site/index.p...&ceid=5&meid=1

According to their website, their organizers will be onsite at the Meadowlands around 6am, but registration will open at 8am. Remember, any autocross participation/registration must be conducted directly with the Northern NJ Section of the Porsche Club. I don't have confirmation as to whether the session is full at this point. Many of us will be going as spectators.

http://www.nnjr-pca.com/site/index.p...isplay&ceid=12

Hope this helps!

Oh, ok, thanks - my bad; I thought it was a Benz-only event, run by PCA. Which it's not, obviously. It will be fun to see AMG owners' a$$es handed to them.

I might have to bring down my crx for the day instead.

Unfortunately this years registered compares to last years actual attended.

Last year I had 83 cars registered for the event. And had 43-47 cars show up by days end as there were about 10 cars that showed up during lunch

Total person count last year was right around the same as last year though, so that means, more actual people could be at this years event. We had 139 total people registered last year, but this year we have 131
