Any People in NJ that wanna MOTOR?

Hey Guys-

I know some of you have seen my myspace and my video of me driving fast. No, I don't drive like that on a daily basis, and yes I have since been (somewhat) scared straight to not speed. Anyway, this being said, I was wondering if there was anyone in New Jersey who would like to go on a weekend day (Saturday or Sunday) and just grab lunch somewhere, and rock some fun roads. Should be a good time, let me know where you guys are, when your available, roads you want to drive in the state itself, etc. Again, it should be an awesome time, and the only thing you'd have to pay for is lunch and gas money. Hope to hear from you soon,

I'm in for this...once we get things more solidified, we should post on www.nemini.org since that is the main gathering place for motorers in this area.

OK, official details are starting to emerge...

Date: January 28th or 29th.

Place: Clinton Diner

Time: 11AM.

Plan: Eat lunch, motor on backroads, visit Paulinskil Viaduct, other places, go home.

Finished by like 4-5 (Guessing)

This is gonna be a great day!

Lambspeed - any ideas for a meet/run in south jersey? I'd be up for that as well since I'm sort of in the middle.

Also in the middle - south Jersey is probably easier for me but nothing is too far in Jersey....

Expecting my car before mid-February so keep a place in line open for me....

Bill-

If you go to nemini.org, there should be the same forum as here. Based on what people have said about that, the run looks like its due on the 28th or 29th. We will definitely keep a spot open for you man, anytime. Let me know what you think. and a PRE CONGRATULATIONS ON OWNING YOUR S!!! I know I was looking for the PERFECT mini for about a month and every day was a killer. It's been two.5 months now, and I still can't believe I have that awesome thing in my driveway. Owning one is a true privelege and pleasure. Sharing the experience is what its all about.

Chris

Sorry to intrude, NJ owners... but I have to ask - why isn't this thread in one of the Club or Regional Forums, such as:

MINI Owners of New Jersey (MONJ)

or

Mid-Atlantic

Just curious... have fun at your event though.

I think only a forum moderator can do that... but I'm sure they'll be happy to.

I don't know anything about MONJ, if you're a member (or if they even have formal "membership"), but if you're not sure about using that one, I believe the generic "Mid-Atlantic" forum is free for anyone in the region to use, no "official" stuff to deal with.
