Ok, here it is,bottom line... David started a VX meet posting for NJ...now the plans have changed for a meet in Monticello,NY. on December 19,2004.
So far we have: DRDAVID44(dragon VX),THEBEAR54(white VX),BEAVERTRACTORS(silver VX), FRANCESCO RIZZO(white VX)?,and NYC#1 IRONMAN(white VX).
How about NJ99VX,MEDMAN,ZADAM123 and the rest of the NorthEast/New Jersey/New York Forum members. Let's have some good times. I'm challenging all of you to come out:D Sign in and be counted!
John
I cannot commit to the date, but I want to come. Hopefully everything will work out.....
I can not commit to the date also but will try. How about a time? It's about a 2 1/2 hour ride for me too. Need to know when to start driving.
We should try to get there early like 11:00am because it's a far trip for some and now gets dark early and you really don't want to drive back too late....If some can't make it due to the far trip and can agree on something closer I'm game. I will be flexible with whatever is easiest for people.
Way to go John!!!
Monticello on 12/19/04 !
Lets see how big the meet will grow.
Hope for good weather too.
Dave:)
I thought you would like that David:D
Let's keep shaking the trees and see how many VXers show up.
Hey NYC...sounds like a good time to meet (11:00am) that should give everybody plenty of time to get there.
MONTICELLO,NEW YORK DECEMBER 19,2004 Monticello Race Track@11:00 a.m. until....whenever!!
Keep on truckin'...........John
Think they'd notice a bunch of VX's doing some high speed laps around the horse track??!!!!!! That would be some serious "HORSE POWER"!!!!
Its not a definate but looks good for me
adam
It looks like I'll finally be able to make a meet again!
I probably won't be able to be up there till about 1:00-1:30, but I'd love to see another bunch of VXs!
Rob
Happy Turkey Day Gang.........
Well the list is growing for Monticello.......
Looks like we have 6 in the for sure catagory and 3 in the possible group.
Dave, I love the "horsepower" idea:D :D :D :D Might even make the front page.
Keep the list growing and make this an awsome meet...John
I'm relatively close and thinking about attending. I would just have to reschedule a few things.
What are you folks planning on doing at this here meet? I only ask because it will probably be damn cold on Dec 19th.
Glad you are going to try to make it. We can go into the raceway there, they have a huge buffet we can hang out at ( after checkin out each others rides,lol) they have horse races and slot machine, and not very crowed so it will be quite comfortable for all of us,,
Hey David,
Any chance of you posting a map of the area and some of the faster routes from North Jersey, New York City and Albany so we can all find it without getting totally(or at least somewhat) lost:D :D . Really looking forward to this get together....John
i think the thruway to exit 16 (harriman) then rte 17 to exit like 105b which would say monticello raceway and its right there off the exit
Guys I think I'll be there too
Wow, this is great news.. there should be a nice turn out,,
This might be one hell of a get together.... I have E-mailed everybody(except for NJ99VX who has no E-mail address) to confirm if they are coming. So far that is 17 people, 17 VX's in one place......Flippen AWSOME. Man I can't wait!!!!!
HOW ABOUT A FEW MORE NAMES TO ADD TO MY LIST HERE....I know there are more VXers out in New England,New York and Northern Jersey (We have people coming from Pennsylvania, Vermont, New Jersey,New York and Connecticut so far).
John
Everyone should wear a name tag with their VX screename on it.. I hope Rizzo makes it since we made it convenient cause he was gonna be in town at that time..
Sorry guys, I will be in NYC that weekend with relatives. I guess I'll see you guys at the Foxwoods winter meet.
-Medman
I've freed-up my schedule and will definately be able to make the Monticello meet!:!: :clap:
As you can tell I'm rather excited, it will be my first one!
I've even got the girlfriend onboard, I think it was the gambling that sold her.
Looking forward to it, Keep us posted here with any updates. Thanks.
-Rob
NICEEEEEEEEEEEE,,,Try to make it by 11:00am, because the day flies and it will be dark b4 u know it...
WoW!!!!!
This is soooooooo awesome!
It will be my first meet!
I was just up the Monticello way this weekend. It will be cold so dress for it!
As was posted its damn easy to get there!
North on the NY state thruway to exit 16 (harriman) which brings you to $.50 toll, straight through toll puts you right onto 17 west!
Then to exit like 105b which would say monticello raceway and its right there off the exit.
COPS....part of the thruway and rt 17 is 65 mph. I usually just go 70 on cruise and dont worry about cops....but watch out all you racers...they do pull folk over!
Rt 17 also drops down in spots to 55 ...wtach the signs!
This will be a great day!
I look forward to meeting you all!
Dave:)
Looks like it's about 9 hours from Detroit ,very tempting,Gambling and Buffet... are they open even with no racing?
COLD??? "You ain't seen nuttin' yet Dave...wait until December...but you know!
Hey "Redline" that would be awsome if you could make it(long drive though).
Anybody hear from Frank Rizzo? This is his "Special Date". So far we have 5 for YES, 1 for NO, 1 maybe and 11 NOT RESPONDED YET. It's going to be a great meet!!!!!!!!!!
John
Is this going to be one big "BULL PEN"?? or do we have any female VX'ers comming? Would be nice to have that female energy to balance us out.....or are you married guys looking forward to getting away from the wives that day??!!!!!
Any NE VX'ers alive out there?
Join us!!!!!
I''m here, my girlfiend will not face that cold weather on that day...
Come on all the rest of you out there.....throw your VX hat into the ring and let us know if you are coming. At least we can make arrangements to have a large table put together for our "Bull session" and "Pig out".
"MONTICELLO I" is well under way...be part of the good times!!!
:D :D :D :D ....John
Try very hard not to speed on Rt.17. The cops on that road are especially driven to be the ultimate nightmare a$$hole cops.
Dont know yet if i can make it but i will try my best. I've never been to one of these before. wish me luck

John

Andy

John

I'll be making the long trip from downtown Vermont. Should be about three hours of windshield time for me with mostly back roads until I hit Albany. Can't wait... this will be great.
8 VXers commited to go, 2 are a maybe and still waiting for the rest to make a commitment. John
Hey "Jungalbutt"
Yea! A little over a year ago I saw a yellow VX on rt 59 and said hey, I want one of those...called Cerami Isuzu in Paramus and they had one that was just traded in by its original owner with only 15,000 on it! I ran over and bought it on the spot!
Are you going to attend? I sure hope so but if you do not we should meet up sometime for a coffee, conversation and VX looking!
Wow...about 18 folk comming?!!!
Let's make this a real good meet. Who ever is out there contemplating/heming and hawing ....."should I" ...."yes'...."no"....."maybe I'll show up"...????????
THE ANSWER IS A BIG YES TO COMING OUT AND HAVING SOME FUN AT THIS MEET. Put your name on our list and be there...what else you gotta do on a Sunday in December????
:D :D :D :D John
I'm located in NYC (Queens) and if anyone else that lives near my area, send me an email at (javiergonzalez_113@hotmail.com) and maybe we can setup a time & place where we could meet up then headout to the meeting spot. FYI...This will be my 1st VX meeting. I'm siked!
