Upstate NY General chat.

[Swanny]

We lost damn near a foot of snow in a few days last week. Made me regret not getting out to ski when we got dumped on.

We should start a betting pool on when spring gets here. At this pace it will be may before we see a blade of grass.

On thing i had a blast with was this...



Kart track at the Destiny USA mall in cuse. Just a suggestion if we can't get to any autox. A lil pricy at ~$24 for a 14 lap race but those things haul asssss.

There's a place here in Albany like that. It really is a hoot and we get to see who is the fastest!

[Swanny]

Yea thats a smart move haha

Would you rather we kept the chat in here? I'm sure we could bump the hell out of this threads count. Kidding aside, I figured a dedicated thread would be easier to find and share.

[Swanny]

What do you mean? We need yo boost thread count #s like all the PNW and socal guys!

[Andy.B]

I started a new thread for this, since I don't want to clog up this thread with the planning conversation.

Thanks guys.

Do they allow you to rent out the place for a group? If we get enough interest, that might be cheaper.

Go Karts was added to the survey. I cleared your submission, so if you could fill it out again, I would appreciate it. Thanks Swanny.

Ok, lets try to get something going! I whipped up a google form as a preliminary survey. If you could fill this out, and pass the word along to anybody else who might be interested, please do.

Upstate NY 2014 summer get together survey

Survey Status

I will edit/add to the form as I think of things or suggestions are made.

The next step, I think, will be do make google calender we can collaborate on to try and narrow down a specific weekend/day that works best for people.

Once spring rolls around, I think either a Binghamton meet and backroad cruise would be cool. Or an auto-x meet as suggested. there's definitely enough people around to have a good meet.

[Swanny]

We're all down but i'll need a heads up far in advance since I now work weekends. If someone wants to take the reigns and set stuff up.....i gotta go put my car together

[Andy.B]

Any interest in a central NY get together this summer? Maybe something low key like a simple meet and greet at a restaurant, or picnic bbq at a park, on a Saturday or Sunday afternoon/evening. I'd also be up for descending upon an autocross event somewhere to meet up, check out each others rides, and (legally) hoon our cars.

It seems like there are a handful of us, but spread all over the state. Syracuse seems fairly central to most of us. Perhaps Binghamton, which is about halfway between WNY and NYC.

I only know of a few e30's in my area (two on r3v, but not active in this thread).
