Hello Everyone,

Here is an update to the NEW event. After the event fell through at Englishtown's Raceway park, i began scrambling trying to find us a location in such a short period of time.

A viable option was Governors Island in NYC, but due to the location and Ferry operations it would be a nightmare logistically speaking to get cars on and off the island. Therefore I contacted the location where ROTORFEST was held previously; ISLAND DRAGWAY.

I have discussed this and reserved the location for Sunday July 13, 2008 @ 11:00AM.

LOCATION: ISLAND DRAGWAY

FOOD VENDOR: On site provided by the track. NO BBQing allowed (sorry)
* You can bring your own food/drinks as long as it doesn’t require a grill.

MERCHANDISE VENDORS: You must contact Chris M if you would like to become a vendor for the event (Tshirts. Merchandise, etc).

SWAP MEET: If you have some parts you want to move your more than welcome to sell them from the hatch/trunk of your car. (Vendors need to contact Chris M)

DRAG RACING TIME: 5:00-6:00PM

DRAG RACING COST $TBD (estimated between $15-$20 per vehicles)

EVENT STAFF: Contact me or John (john64) if you would like to participate.

2) Portable Chairs
3) Portable Tables
3) Bring your own FOOD/DRINKS (No alcohol)
4) Dogs (on leashes)
5) Clean up after yourself
6) Bring SUNBLOCK or SUNTAN based on your preference.

1) Reckless Driving (donuts, burnouts (on grass lol)
2) NO BBQing
3) NO loose dogs/cats, must be leashed
4) NO Alcohol
5) Driving Fast (5mph)
6) Littering

*We will be setting up the caravans from NY/CT/NJ like we always do. Details will follow shortly.

*I will also post up directions to the racetrack from the main aertierals. For supplemental directions check out Islands website at http://islanddragway.com/directions.html

I know it’s not the BEST location but it’s familiar and well priced. Sorry for the inconvenience and delay; next year will go over more smoothly.

Best Regards,

So same place under new name/management. It's not bad for a first year. Really, it might make the transition easier as people can recycle their travel plans from last year. Then, the management will have a major meet under their belt with a better plan for launching RotorJam2.

 

From Central Mass, thats about 230 miles one way. I'm thinking about Leading a caravan from Central Mass either early that morning, or the night before if i can find a cheap enough hotel close to the drag strip, PM me with possible meet locations and such.

Lets rep MA with a big caravan!

 

Im definatley down for this...

I will contact Meguiars if people want some goodies again....

 

MA has rolled with us on many occasions (7 guys). Hopefully the 8 crowd will join them this year.

 

i'm in!

 

Jay you know i'll be there. Let me know whats up w/showing.

I'll probably go early w/Chrism so if you need a hand setting up it's no problem w/me.

 

so i take it only open to rotoary

 

Sweet.. I already know where it is lol.. Sucks but at the same time take a head count, you know there will be TONS of photo's taken, so next year you can go to whereva and say "listen this is what I brought to a tiny drag way.. imagine if I had your place to get people to come?".

Guess me and GreenBlur will get ourselves situated to run the MA/New England leg of a caravan going, atleast for the 8's. Last year no 7's bit at my attempt of a caravan going down I-95.

Hmm Chris you better be contacting a fellow bald headed 8 owner and see if he cares to stop by to promote himself

 

Nope last year we had a few piston like cars there and a few SUV's. Open to all who enjoy the car luv.. correct me if I'm wrong folks
