New York Auto Show
 
hey gang,
i was wondering who woudl be interested in getting together as a group to hit the NYC show. i am thinking about trying to go on opening day, friday april 14th.
maybe we cna get a group together and get a better rate on tickets then hit someplace in that area for some eats. the convention center is right on the river and with in walking distance of chelsea pier if anyone wants to do anyting else while we are in the area too.
sound like a plan to anyone?
i will get the break down for group rates and let everyone know.

I'm down. thats far enough away that I can take off from work. :D

ar0ck 02-04-2006 04:47 PM

Im mostly likely going to be in on the press day (not open to the public), and I'll probably end up going again for free another day.

Tsar 02-04-2006 04:50 PM

maybe

jims69camaro 02-04-2006 05:11 PM

i think we should hit up public transportation together. those of us this far south could drive over to point pleasant, and those along the route could just join up with us as the train heads north. once we get to NY, everything is either by subway or within walking distance, so we wouldn't have to pay exhorbitant parking rates nor worry about who is going to jack our cars.

just a thought. :mrgreen:

NJSPEEDER 02-04-2006 05:36 PM

if you take the train into grand central i think it is only like 12-14blocks down to the hudson river and the convention center.
we will jsut need a system to all meet up with each other along the way or once in NYC.
the ewing/trenton crew would prolly leave from hamilton station since they have teh best/safest parking around here. :)

you read my mind Tim......i'm definitley in!!!!!!!

The Fixer 02-04-2006 05:52 PM

I'll take the ferry over and meet you guys, since it's only 20 minutes for me. The ferry drops you off right across the street from the Javits Center. I'll meet up with you guys, I'm off from work that Friday. :) Kasey and Paul, you wanna head down there together?

JW 02-04-2006 05:59 PM

I might actually be interested in this, but yea I big supporter of the public trans. :)

JW :D

yeah im up for it, i am also going on that monday i think with my gf and some other people but ill go twice. Yeah the ferry would be the best choice IMO no city driving needed, just need to chekc if theres a decent place to eat in walkign distance, or wait to eat when back in NJ.

Ill also probably have press passes again this year. I might be able to get a day off, but who knows.

NJSPEEDER 02-04-2006 07:21 PM

chelsea piers is only a few blocks from teh javits center and they have a pretty good restaurant/micro brew place in there as i remember. i think that would be a cool place to grab a bite.
there are a ton of little deli's and small resaurants in the area too.

Ian 02-04-2006 10:27 PM

is anyone from the new bruswick area going? I'll probably take the train from there, just wanted to see if anyone wanted to meet up. :)

Rich189 02-04-2006 10:38 PM

i might be able to go depends on work and such

jims69camaro 02-04-2006 10:52 PM

meeting point in NY, then? or are we all going to get dropped off at grand central?

Brando56894 02-04-2006 10:53 PM

i'm not that far from Brunswick.

i was gonna go from Woodbridge, only like 15 min from Brunswick if you wanna meet up with me there.

Savage_Messiah 02-05-2006 12:45 AM

I'm down, AND what we can do is all park at my house then take as few cars as possible to the ferry, if you guys want to (seeing how I'm the closest member to there). My house is easy to get to from the turnpike, parkway, 80, 4, 17... yea.
