The Bennigans' we had the last meet at has a great lot in back with lots of room to BS and park, and excellent food.

I vote for the same place, it's super easy to get to (unless you head South instead of North. :lol: )

[skorpion317]

well, if everyone is OK with tex-mex, i know a great place to go to. HUGE parking lot, and I can talk to the management about having a large group there. It's called Jose Tejas, in Fairfield.

Jose Tejas is alittle on the expensive side. Dont get me wrong its good food, but we dont want some of the weak stomached people sitting on the can the entire duration of the meet :lol:

I second Steve's motion for Bennegins, at least they have already delt with us before and we were such angles.


Also Saturday the 18th is right smack in the middle of the month.

i third the bennigans idea...time to earn another free desert... :twisted:

<<<<<<hasnt been to a meet yet :( too much working

[GP99GT]

i say bennigans again. i wasnt there long, but it was cool...parking lot is huge, so lets make it a big one!

[Savage_Messiah]

Someone remind me to bring money this time.

[NJSPEEDER]

bennigans sounds like it is the popular favorite. who wants to take teh lead and go talk to them about hosting us again?

Which Bennigan's are you guys talking about? I know there are a few up here in the Bergen and Passaic area.

[Savage_Messiah]

Saddle Brook.

it's no more expensive than the food at Bennigan's. actually, most of it is cheaper than bennigan's.

What road is it on/off of?

[slasherbarb]

its right off of 46...

[ar0ck]

I'll go check it out maybe Friday after I get out of class at 1:30, its pretty close to my own home so I'll go find the manager.

Its the Bennegins in Saddle Brook off Midland Ave. You can easily get to it by the Turnpike / rt. 80, the Parkway, and Rt. 4 (Fair-Lawn)

[transamws686]

Why not meet on a saturday at whiskey cafe. lots of cars, there is a bar/resurant. just a cool place.

E :twisted:

That's the problem with Whiskey, there's already a lot of cars. Don't get me wrong, it's a great show, but that lot is always packed.

[foff667]

I'd probably be down for benigans again if thats why you decide on :)

it's on rt. 46 west, just past the Willowbrook Mall. REAL easy to get to.

[calhoon]

I vote Bennigan's. :D

[Teds89IROC]

They both sound good to me, but Alex has a good point about any weak stomach members haha

the food isn't that strong. there's only a few items on the menu at Jose Tejas that will cook you from the inside. I used to work there, and I've eaten everything on the menu. The spiciest thing is a pasta dish with crawfish and shrimp, and some hellish cajun sauce. it's damn tasty, but anyone who can't tolerate spicy food would do well to stay away from that dish.

why don't we head for something in the ledgewood area or perhaps hacketsstown. No offense but i am s ick of always traveling down towards the city and dealing with a crap load of traffic maybe the TGIF fridays or something like that. Last time me and my friend mike looked into it no one was intrested so i dunno i am not going to do anything again unless people show intrest

I was thinking TGI Fridays in Ledgewood or Maggie's in the Rockaway Mall... ya know like something smack in the middle of north jersey. both have huge parking lots and both have bars and REALLY good food (not like ill be attending the swivel seats anywayz ;-) )

*EDIT* Plus, Maggie's hosts huge NASCAR Parties, I think they would host an Fbody Club :)

I'll be home in hackettstown for the summer... i'm down for anything around the area. Or we could set up a friday night at Island, diner or something after

[Fozzi58]

I vote for bennegins...

...but i think it would be kewl to take a drive out to hackettstown. We'd get a big train heading out there on rt 80. It be pretty kewl...

[Jclt12003]

Last time me and mike tried setting everything up no one wanted it there. I am not going to go through all the work unless i see people are definatly intrested they said last time they could do it but just lemme know

[NJSPEEDER]

so has anyone bothered to go over to bennigens and see if they are interested in hosting us again yet? if someone wants to get over there and see what they have in mind within the next week or so we can include it in the next e-newsletter and let everyone know about it.

[calhoon]

[calhoon]

yeah I'll get over there either friday night or saturday morning.

[ar0ck]

Actually one of our very own members Kojak just got hired their :lol:

[GR8Z28]

I'm down with the ledgewood/Hackettstown idea but those guys have to scope out a good place since I'm in PA. I'll try to show even if it's in Saddlebrook, a further drive but what the hell a $60 round trip gas bill?
it's worth it!

[calhoon]

Actually one of our very own members Kojak just got hired their Laughing



Should I even bother then?

[NJSPEEDER]

please. if you can take the lead on this we would all appreciate it.
since we were there before they pretty much know the deal. tell them to just expect a larger crowd since it is warmer out and more people are around. figure on about 50heads with 30+ cars.
if they are willing to do a time around 1 or 2 on one of the sundays that may work out the best for everyone.
you shoudl get in touch with lexi and see who she talked to up there. if you can deal with teh same person as last time it will make things much easier.

thanks
tim

[calhoon]

Alright, souds good. I'll let you know.

[calhoon]

Well we're all set for June 19 @ 2pm, Bennigan's in Saddle Brook. We got the entire side lot and the back lot. Hope to see you all there.

[NJSPEEDER]

sweet deal man. thanks for taking care of this. it will be posted up in the lounge in a few mins and added to the monthly e-newsletter that will be sent out in the next few days.

[LS1Hawk]
