Default Import Alliance 2009: Northeast Caravan!

Well its about time we get a thread!!!!!!!!!
here is the original thread with all the info:
https://honda-tech.com/forums/southeast-116/importalliance-09-july-25th-26th-nashville-super-speedway-2494601/

ImportAlliance '09
July 25th and 26th
Nashville Super Speedway
Saturday 8a.m. - 5p.m.
Sunday 9 a.m. - 5p.m.

Nashville Super Speedway
4847-F McCreary Rd
Lebanon, TN 37090

Roll out from NJ-July 23(thursday) ~5 am from the Jersey Gardens Diner.


I'm working on a Google map with meet up spots, approximate times, and route. I'm thinking a roll out Thursday morning(5ish) from NJ with the real north guys(NY,MA,CT,etc). Its about 13.5 hours from here(North NJ)+ stop for fuel,food,etc so figure we get there before midnight-ish including all stops that would be need for fuel,food and sex..

I'm in NJ so I'm going to start the trip from the northern part to meet up with the MA,RI,CT,NY,LI guys. All southern people can caravan up if they like, if you guys have a spot to roll out from south NJ let me know.
Then as we continue if i can get a PA,MD,VA person to set up a location for us to caravan to along the route.


If someone from each state can set up a spot and let me know via post or pm it would be GREAT!!!If i dont hear back from someone in that state with a spot then ppl from that state can just meet up at the next state down.



Right now from NJ the route looks something like this and seems to have No tolls(according to google maps)

Rt.78 to Rt.81(NJ-PA)
Rt-81 to 40w all the way to TN(this goes through PA,MD, west VA,VA, then into TN)

I will update this post RIGOROUSLY and DAILY with routes, maps, caravans, etc


The MAIN meet up location aka were this will officially start is
Jersey Gardens Diner‎
650 Kapkowski Rd
Elizabeth, NJ 07202





Whats been discussed page1-2



Northern NYC CT rollout page 3-4
5am roll out to avoid NYC traffic.will arrive early to main rollout. early=good. late=bad

Yeah last year we checked in around 11 o clock. I think that was a good way to do it, except maybe leave around 9 this time and check in around 9ish.

I know the drive home was the worse, we all kept getting split up, and we left around 9 and didn't show up home until like 11. Stopping for fireworks, ect.

You HAVE to get K man to come again. That muh fug is FUNNNY.

It doesn't help either when you get lost 45 minutes from your house. Chris was so lost trying to get on 66 (I think it is) from 81. So that wasted like 30 minutes.

13 hour drive is cake. I drove 12 hours back and forth from louisville kentucky to Pa 6 times last year by myself and only stopped for gas and food. All i need is something to blaze and i'm good.
