Ok fellow Northeastern Teeners there will be a Drive and BBQ on the 16th of July 2011. We will be linking up at Tangerine Racing HQ's and going for a 2 hour "Scenic Drive" through Racer Chris' backyard. Upon completion of the Drive we will partaketh in good grub. This is not to be confused with CFR's Biannual get together thats next year. This is just the Northeastern Teeners getting together for no reason at all. Racer Chris has mapped it out and it looks like a nice drive. Post here is you are going to be in attendance. It is also encouraged to bring a dish to pass a long. If you are traveling more that 5 hours I would not recomend brining a cold dish (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

The link is a google maps page I created. The route covers 53 miles, includes 5 "special stages" and 6 "transit stages". Most of the drive will be forested semi-residential countryside. Just past halfway we'll take a break at the UConn Dairy Bar.

Rally Route

BTW, this topic was started at 914Club sometime ago, so a good deal of the planning is already in place.

Hmm...that place looks very familiar. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)

I guess the 914 will have to be put back together for the 16th. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

This is the designated camping area for anyone who wants to stay over Saturday night. I'll make sure the grass is mowed nice and short right beforehand.
And for a nominal price, there'll be a bacon and eggs breakfast Sunday morning on the patio. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/chowtime.gif)

Over the weekend I had a chance to drive on the two sections of our route which had been torn up for resurfacing.
All paved, all good! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif)

I did a google search for "motels near 06043". This is the results page:
Motel Search

All the popular hotel chains are represented in the area.
The only one I would say to avoid is the Manchester Inn, downtown.
Americas Best Value Inn, Motel6 and Hojo Express look like they have low rates. For some reason the Baymont doesn't have any vacancy for those dates?
Ed mentioned the Ashford Motel which is a half hour ride from my house but is right off I84 heading towards Massachusetts.
For people traveling from/to the west, there's also a Ramada right off I84 in East Hartford. That's gonna be $100 or so.

I've booked my room and plan to make the 5 hour trip from Bangor, Maine. Traveling on Friday to be fresh for Saturday's meet. Most 914's I've seen in one place was 13, sure would like to up that number by a dozen!
