Re: Fall 2009 NE Sy/Ty meet, location poll thread!!

Numedia is about as far West as I'd be willing to go. (but who the hell am I to decide? :lol:) The owner of that track, Bob DiMino, is a cool dude and loves to accommodate. I've never been to that track but I'm in the drag racing business and I've heard a lot of good things about the track and the owner/management. Only downfall is the elevation of that track makes it quite a bit slower than most of the other tracks in the Northeast. It's about 2-3 tenths slow....

It would be a good place, but they already run most Fri, Sat, and Sundays. Friday is their street legal night. Bob was at the Pocono Drag Lodge Reunion last satruday, promoting his track. I've never heard anybody say a bad word about him. He's a lot better owner, then the last guy, that had the track. I know people the last guy still owes money to. Numedia does a nice job of prepping their track for street legal night, something that I can't say for Maple Grove, which is the other track in the area. The guys I go with to the tracks, run almost half a second slower on street night, then a normal race day due to the lack of track prep. MG is loaded with imports on most street nights.
Do you have any connections at Islands? If it was a pocono meet, that would be the closest rack, I know they have zoning restrictions as to when they can run, but have no idea how strict they are

i spoke to one of the guys in the poconos.. he offered up his place for a BBQ..

basically his idea was saturday during the day a nice drive through the mountains..
back to his house for a bbq (his wife is a damn good cook)
then to a local car show/cruise night, supposedly it is pretty big, but i've never been.

if there is interest i could see what the local drag strip is doing on sunday, maybe arrange for some people to crash at my house then head to the strip in the morning.

he suggested sometime in late mid-october

Sounds good to me. :tup: If there's interest, book a date soon 'cause October is already filling up. I'm not particularly interested in the track, but there are lots of residential rentals in the Poc's if people wanna split a place and stay over. (I can't do Sunday)

So has something been decided? It looks like State College would be good for everyone. It is in the middle of the state. The poconos are far for the Pittsburgh/Erie/Ohio guys.
