Oh yeah. Forgot about 23. Good route from your place. Will check out Route 55 traffic from 295.

Yep; 206 through Princeton past Trenton to 295. Should pass by Trenton about 11am-ish.

Bring list -

Upon your arrival at the hotel, make sure your car has at least a half a tank of gas for the cruise. No fuel stops are planned.
Download Google on to your phone if not already installed.
Bring a folding chair, some cash, a bathing suit for the pool, and BYOB if you're drinking something other than water.
EZ pass might be handy for crossing inlet bridges.
If anyone has a drone camera, please bring it.
I think that's it.

If some of you guys are coming down Rt. 206, you can stop at this gas station and fill up. They have ethenol free gas.

Hey everyone..

Unfortunately, it looks like I won't be able to make it this year. It's just really bad timing. My daughter is sick, and we just moved into a new house so there's still a lot of unpacking to do. Also, I've had to do some work on my car, but thanks to the US Post Office, a lot of parts I've ordered keep getting "lost" pushing the work further and further back.

The good news is, the body work/paint job on my car is coming along very nicely so everything should be complete by next years event as long as the Post Office doesn't keep losing the paint.

I look forward to the posts and pics of all the cars. Have fun and drive safely everyone!

Ah ha! 206S all the way from Somerville to RT 54 to north side of Vineland! Love it! And gas, too. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif)

@rgolia I like Len’s idea of going straight down 296 from Princeton past Trenton then on down to 54 into Vineland. How’s your planned schedule for Friday morning? Meet up east of Trenton? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/driving.gif)

Unhappy I can't join you, as I'm racing at Thompson this next weekend...but coming from someone that makes the trip to NJMP from CT on a regular basis (my race car is based down there) and who drove the 914 down to NJMP last October...

If you're coming from CT or thereabouts, both Apple Maps and Waze will suggest the GWB...eff that b****h, I think she's paid off by the Port Authority. Just don't do it. Seriously, ignore her. Your best routes across the Hudson are the TPZ (I-287) or the Newburgh (I-84). The Bear Mountain Bridge is a FAAAAR better scenic drive, but put aside some time for it as there will be traffic this time of year.

After you're across the Hudson, there's three majors routes southbound:

- I-287 west to the GSP, then down to the Turnpike
- I-287 around the horn to grab the TPK south
- I-287 down to Rt 202 in Somerville, to Rt 31S down to I-295 EAST. 295 will take you to 42 then 55 down to Millville.
- I've taken 206 at the 202/206 split, but I've found 202/31 through Flemington is an easier driver with a lot less traffic than 206 through Princeton/Trenton. However, if both 295 and the NJTpke are a mess, it's a good off-Interstate ride on side roads to Vineland. Just bank in some extra time for it. 206 is also a good detour off the Tpke for back entry.

Which way I go depends on what I'm driving (Excursion, GTI, 914), whether I'm towing a trailer, and what the current traffic situation is. When I did the drive in October in the 914, school was back in, tourist traffic was nil, and I had good weather. I did the Merrit, TPZ, GSP, NJTPke run down to 206 to Vineland then across to NJMP. Even got a glimpse of a fellow 914 driver in that area (green, was it?) but they didn't see me.

Y'all have a blast, I'll be thinking about you!

Greg

Nice, Travis. See you soon!
I just completed the finishing touches of my 2056 and side shifter conversion project with the help of some awesome guys on this list. Can’t wait to bring it to this event! We have a pretty good representation of our Mittelmotor 914 Gruppe coming in from the Philly area. Hoping for clear weather. See you guys soon.
