I will arrive in NYC Tuesday May 24 at invitation of Kenny, I will hang out in NYC until Friday when we will drive to SMMM8.
We will be glad if some Kappa fellows want to join in our activities. So here we go:

Wednesday May 25 at 5pm -11pm is Drag Racing in Etown which is in central Jersey, ~1 hour south of NYC.
No matter if you care to race or not, just meeting in person and some chit chatting I think will be nice.

Thursday we will be going out in NYC around NYC all day Kenny showing me around, and that night for dinner and drinks. If anyone wants to come that would be great, if not that's ok, cuz we'll see most of you the next day at Joe's.

We are looking for a place to go, but for now Kenny's choice is the Ginger Man in midtown since they have a huge selection of like 100 beers from around the globe and decent food.

Sorry Kelu that's a little too far for a day trip for me. I'll see you Friday

Arabas · « **Reply #2 on:** May 18, 2011, 06:29:19 AM »

will you be racing Kelu?
if yes, don't worry about turbo lag! Jet lag is going to be your major problem

Kelu · « **Reply #3 on:** May 18, 2011, 06:38:18 AM »

SHiNY: Bummer, see you Friday

Arabas: I hope I will race

Turbo lag?

I hope jet lag won't affect me

There is a place in the city, can't remember the name, that is like being inside a mystery novel. Might be a good place for lunch. Anyone help me out here with a name?

Is a Test & Tune day

From track Schedule:
Wednesday, May 25th, 2011 - 5:00 PM - 10:00 PM
Unmuffled and Muffled Test & Tune + No Time Grudge Runs + $500 Eliminator. Drifting. Open 5PM.

And I think is some MX Practice on Racetrack in case of watching other things than drag racing.

BigSal · « **Reply #9 on:** May 18, 2011, 09:15:17 AM »

Have to check my schedule maybe Bryan and I can make it. Not sure yet though.

Kenny,

When are you guys leaving for the MM?

Kelu · « **Reply #10 on:** May 18, 2011, 09:17:52 AM »

I think Friday in early morning, not sure the hour I think around 6am? I hope Kenny will confirm.

It would be great to do the trip with other Kappas

BigSal · « **Reply #11 on:** May 18, 2011, 09:40:43 AM »

We'd like to make the run with a few other Kappas if possible. I'm in Philadelphia and would be happy to join you for the run down. Kenny give me details as they get more firm.

BigSal and Bryan

BigSal · « **Reply #12 on:** May 18, 2011, 09:43:56 AM »

Lets decide where to meet up at and make the run together.
Maybe the MarylandHouse or somewhere similar Gas and Go.

Do you guys mind making a separate thread for a Northeast convoy to MMM8?

elff · « **Reply #14 on:** May 18, 2011, 10:30:06 AM »

Unfortunately, i'm not going to be able to get the extra 1/2 day off from work for wednesday and will be driving down to MD after work on Thursday because my Car is the first on the DDM work list on friday morning.

So I will see you on friday.

reedred · « **Reply #15 on:** May 18, 2011, 11:42:51 AM »

I doubt I'll be out of work early enough on Wednesday and I'm heading South Thursday morning, so I won't be able to join you. See y'all at Joe's!

Would love if you can come. We could do dinner at 6 or 7p we can also do the NBC tour you were interested in.

Sly Bob · « **Reply #18 on:** May 18, 2011, 01:08:03 PM »

Hey guys, if you're in the neighbourhood ya gotta check this place out. They don't have 100 beers on tap, just light or dark.

The place really is a step back in time.

I love that bar, great burgers.

Kelu,

I will be away from home, so you are welcome to race and drift my car while at the test and tune event. The automatics are significantly quicker in the quarter mile, so you might just beat your personal best! I will leave the keys in tzhe garage, just swing by and grab them.

See you Friday.

They serve food there?

All I've ever had there are fistfuls of beer. (You don't want to order just one beer - you'll look like a wimp, plus they're small.)

I got mixed up. I was thinking Corner Bistro. And they serve pretty much only mcsorlys and Guinness
