Creating List of Attendees: Please PM Info

Guys,
Creating a list of both in- and out-of-town participants to the HersheyPark event. If there are enough people, I'm going to see if the PCA organizers can dedicate a 6Speeder space in the Porsche Car Corral for us (P-cars only, not my rules.)

Please respond to me with a PM that includes your screen name, car model and year (if it's a P-car you're bringing that day), first "real" name (last optional), and cell phone #. I'll post screen names in list form but all other information will be kept in confidence.

Best,

DAVID

HersheyPark: Update 4/21/08

Let's start working towards a count of who is "in" for the HersheyPark fiesta:

PHILLY CREW
(1) Me
(2) Kevin
(3) Jon (and his Red Baron Carrera S)
(4) Joey [NEEDS A RIDE AS FAR AS I KNOW]
(5) Mike [NEEDS A RIDE AS FAR AS I KNOW]
(6) Tuan
(7) Bill - Werc1 [NEEDS A RIDE AS FAR AS I KNOW]
(8) Ian (MrBonus)

OUT-OF-TOWNERS (screen names only, as promised in my post)

(9) PWU63AMG
(10) Erubin
(11) Colt45
(12) Phoenix (award for the longest drive so far, I believe)
(13) JT3
(14) ?????

MAYBEES
(1) DYL 911
(2) Gleeney

Jon's offering up his pad for a Friday night pre-party. I'm willing to pitch in. Anybody else interested should contact Jon directly (pearlcoupeg35). If the # of people gets too large or too seedy (you know how 6Speeders can be), we can move the party into Philly; if this happens, let's also run a PG-13 event simultaneously so the under 21 crowd can still have a blast. (You know who you are.)

Again, if your name's not on the list and you're "in", shoot me over a PM with your name, car model/year, and cell #. I'll only post your screen name, but having your cell # might come in handy as we start to plan things.

Should be GREAT weather this weekend.

DAVID

Date: Saturday: April 26th
Departure Time: TBD (Shortly)
Departure Location: King of Prussia Mall, Movie Theater, IMAX Side [we can meet up with out-of-towners along the PA Turnpike or at the event]

Update: Due to the potential # of out-of-towners, we're going to move the party into Philly. (Unless somebody's got a better idea.) It would sure be nice to have a spot where we could line the cars up. Any ideas???

PHILLY CREW
(1) Me
(2) Kevin
(3) Jon
(4) Joey [Shotgun w/ Me]
(5) Mike [Shotgun w/ Jon, bring earplugs]
(6) Tuan
(7) Bill - Werc1 [NEEDS A RIDE AS FAR AS I KNOW]
(8) Ian
(9) Cactushead
(10) Chris - CCns23
(11) GarnetRedCoupe
(12) ??????

OUT-OF-TOWNERS (screen names only, as promised in my post)

(1) PWU63AMG
(2) Erubin
(3) Colt45
(4) SlateTT
(5) JT3
(6) Bsaint
(7) ILLM3
(8) BooChook
(9) ?????

MAYBEES
(1) DYL 911
(2) Gleeney

PHILLY CREW: Open to thoughts on what to do in Philly. Be convenient to have something where the <21 year olds can party with the >21 year olds. Ideas?

Again, if your name's not on the list and you're "in", shoot me over a PM with your name, car model/year, and cell #. I'll only post your screen name, but having your cell # might come in handy as we start to plan things.

HersheyPark P-Car Assembly: 4/23 Update

HersheyPark: Update 4/23/08 Part III (FINAL UPDATE, MY FRIENDS)
The HersheyPark P-Car Gathering

Date: Saturday: April 26th (Weather Dependent for the Philly 6Speeders)
Departure Time: Meet at 8am, DEPART at 8:30am SHARP; late comers can catch us on the turnpike or meet-up with us at HersheyPark
Departure Location: United Artists King of Prussia Stadium 16 & IMAX, 300 Goddard Blvd, King Of Prussia, PA 19406 MEET IN FRONT OF THE THEATER FOR EASY VISIBILITY
Note: Bring your EZ Pass, radar, $10 bill, and fill up your cars before we meet up

Background info on the meet, per the CPA-PCA organizer:

(1) We don't want the "Car Corral" as it's for cars for sale (mea culpa)
(2) We DO want Porsche Only Parking (if you're driving a P-car)
(3) Entry is $10 per person (about 2.5 gallons of premium gas if that helps some of you gearheads!)
(4) Gates open at 7:30am but I ain't getting up THAT early
(5) All of our P-cars can all park together BUT we must drive in together so let's pull over before entering the actual show if regrouping is necessary
(6) Might have a line to get in so be patient


Important Factoid


The Pennsylvania State Troopers are still running a month long campaign on clamping down on reckless drivers. They'll be all over the highways this weekend, I suspect. So drive smart. Also, some of us haven't ridden together before so drive with respect, give advance warning of lane changes, don't terrorize Kia drivers, and keep clear buffer zones. Anybody driving like an idiot will be asked to separate from the convoy. Seriously. The last thing we need is a 6Speeder pile-up because somebody hits the brakes to avoid slamming into Bambi Nobody gets hurt and no sheet metal gets bent on my watch!

FRIDAY NITE PARTY: The Friday night party will be held in King of Prussia with the hopes of finding a place to accommodate the cars, etc. We're currently looking at Kildare's, Sullivan's, Champs, and Bahama Breeze. Stay tuned for more info! This should be nailed down by Thursday or Friday morning....

PHILLY CREW
(1) Me (David)
(2) Kevin
(3) Jon
(4) Joey [Shotgun w/ Me]
(5) Mike [Shotgun w/ Jon, bring earplugs]
(6) Tuan
(7) Bill - Werc1 [NEEDS A RIDE -- Tuan, do u have a spot?]
(8) Ian
(9) Cactushead
(10) Chris - CCns23
(11) GarnetRedCoupe

OUT-OF-TOWNERS (screen names only, as promised in my post)

(1) Erubin
(2) Colt45
(3) SlateTT
(4) JT3
(5) Bsaint
(6) ILLM3
(7) Angldrkns9

There are a variety of hotels in King of Prussia, PA covering the gamut of "it'll work, watch out for the cockroaches" to 4(?) star. Google away. This will put you within seconds of the movie theater meet-up spot so you can just roll out of bed ready to roll.

MAYBEES
(1) DYL 911
(2) Gleeney
(3) PWU63AMG

Again, if your name's not on the list and you're "in", shoot me over a PM with your name, car model/year, and cell #. Having your cell # might come in handy if something happens on the road.

My work here is done. [slams down microphone on the floor Chris Rock-style]

Party Before HersheyPark, PA - Friday Nite

Guys,
Thoughts on tomorrow nite? If we're rolling out the nice cars, I can call Kildare's or Champs today to see if we can get some dedicated/safe parking. Who's in and what car do you plan to bring? That way I can give a VIP car count to the manager and see if we can get some primo parking. I'll loop back with the results. No promises.

(1) Me (David)
(2) Jon
(3) Joey - chow only, naturally
(4) Bill
(5) Hang-Over James
(6) Mike
(7) Chris
(8) Tuan?
(9) Others? Out-of-towners??????

OUT OF TOWNERS:
If you're going to be in the Philly area on Friday nite, drop me a PM so I can send you the specifics of where we'll be hooking up!! I'd also like to add you to the "car count" to better leverage the restaurant/bar manager for some VIP parking.

DAVID

HersheyPark Pre-Party: FRIDAY NITE!!

6Speeders,
Details on the Friday night party (4/25):

Where: Bahama Breezes
Time: 7:30pm (we may have to wait 20-30 min. for a table, but that's fine) OUT OF TOWNERS COME WHENEVER. WE'LL BE EASY TO FIND!!

Parking: Cars will either be parked behind Bahama Breeze or by the Best Buy/Nordstrom Tie Rack (it'll be hard to miss)
Address: 320 Goddard Blvd., King of Prussia, PA 19406 (Behind Champs)
Phone: (610) 491-9822
Manager on Duty: "Vince"

And don't forget that James is the bday boy!

We'll roll out around midnight so we're not driving asleep the next day (because that'd be bad kharma). Meet up back in front of the movie theater Saturday morning at 8am and leave by 8:30am. Weather may get wet in the afternoon, but Jon, Joey, Mike, Kevin, Kevin's shotgun (can't think right now), and me are in no matter what. Hope you can join!!

Questions. Thoughts. Comments. Epiphanies. Throw me a PM or a text.

DAVID
