unless something drastic happens in my life, I'll show up.

Can someone tell me if there is a "do it yourself" car wash that is open 24hrs near the dealership? I'd rather wash it just before the event because the car will see some dirt after a 2hr. drive from Philly:cool2:

sounds great send me your pre-registration info to thecarshow@sunautogroup.com

Yes there is a 24 hr car wash on the way to the dealer. On Bay Shore Road there is a 24 hour self powerwash station. Alot of people go there with nice cars. Once we get closer to the show you can PM me for directions from either Sunrise Hwy, Souther State Parkway or the LIE. Easiest way to the car wash is take the Southern State there is an exit for bay shore road that puts you a few blocks from the car wash. Then its just a straight drive to Sunrise Hwy and we are on sunrise.

Approx how long will it take to get from the Verrazano Bridge to this Car Meet? I know what MapQuest says but I'd rather hear it from local people familiar with the Belt Parkway, Southern State Parkway, Route 27, etc at that time of the day on a Saturday during the Summer. How bad will traffic be and what am I looking at?? Thx!

KEV-O
07-22-2010, 08:11 PM

that's going to be one long day for you both

Monty
08-05-2010, 12:13 PM
Yea we're leaving at 5 for a 2 1/2 hour drive. I've never been in my G8 for that long. And never driven it for that long 300 miles all together. I'll have to keep it in the garage to make up for it.

KEV-O
08-05-2010, 12:18 PM
Yea we're leaving at 5 for a 2 1/2 hour drive. I've never been in my G8 for that long.

It will be a comfortable ride
maybe not at 5 am though
lol

may i suggest shutting off the rest reminder
otherwise you will be annoyed with that stupid tree popping up on your dic, and the beeping sound it makes

Monty
08-05-2010, 12:27 PM
I don't even think that's turned on. I'll have check when I get home.

08-06-2010, 03:30 PM
Well this blows, I'm out. I may go with my vette, but definitely can't take the GXP. Look at what started in front of my house yesterday. The town is doing all this shit, and I think I may have gotten a letter about it, but I didn't pay it much attention. Needless to say the GXP is in the garage.

Lucky enough I was at least out when this started, otherwise I wouldn't even be able to get to work. This was going to be my first show, I'm a little annoyed.

JPEGXP
08-06-2010, 04:38 PM
Damn, I thought about laying down some wood planks, but I don't have the right ones. Most of my entire front is taped off, and much of the sidewalk is torn up as well. This is typical of my luck, and Sunday is my birthday as well. My plans were to do the show in the morning, then to my sisters house for a BBQ. I will survey everything tomorrow and see if there is anyway out, but it doesn't look probable. Other issue, I have large trees in the front of my house.

018of888
08-06-2010, 04:50 PM
come on g8 community! this is a great opportunity for you guys to band together and meet at his house to save his gxp from missing this show!

08-06-2010, 07:22 PM
Let's see...It's your birthday, there is a car show, a BBQ and you have a GXP. That's a no brainer. Cut the tape and be free.:auto:

Nice job Al and the other G8 owners who took home some prizes. 20 G8s in one place - what a great day. My son and I had a great time. Thanks Brian for making this happen! For once, we outnumbered the GTOs. But not.........the 40+ Camaros that were there!!! LOL.

3 1/2 hours back (with lots O' traffic). Ouch. But it was worth it.

KEV-O
08-08-2010, 04:58 PM

i'm all burnt from that scorchering sun

Monty
08-08-2010, 05:05 PM
Thanks Kev-O And Randy. Thanks Brian for setting this up. It's nice to see the faces whom you are talking to on the forums and the different mods you guys come up with. You're all winners in my book. I feel sorry for the guy from Maryland, he's probably still driving as I write this.

:woohoo: :first:

08-08-2010, 05:42 PM
Thanks to all the G8 guys who came from all over the northeast! You really brought the NORTHEAST G8 OWNERS CLUB to this show! I truly appreciate all the help and support. I hope you all had a great time I know I did. It was sick to see 22 G8s in one spot! I hope we can get 40+ for next year! Let's keep this club going.

Thank Kev and Tommy for all the help promoting this show. We really need to start discussing some more local weekly meets and some monthly activities for the club. Everyone is a great group of guys and its so fun to watch our cars grow with mods.

Congrats to all the show winners there were some serious G8s here! Pics soon to follow. We got some great aerial shots too!
