As long as you stay over 100, you can keep the top down!

The event is rain or shine, but I don't think I will go if it's rain. However, it's new england, it's still too early to say.

They said it's going to be about 600-700 cars......

Do you really think this meet will last more than 20 minutes? AFAIK, there's no permit, and I've read about the cops not being too enamoured with Bergen Co. mall meets when the mall is closed.

Has anyone been to any Sunday car meet at GSP?
