    This meet will no longer take place. I have already asked mods to get rid of the thread.

    In honor to all the awesome people I met here I will make an effort to get a small gtg going.

    Thanks to everyone who contributed in a positive way. You guys/girls know who you are.

    Nice to see some enthusiasts are family oriented and fueled by passion rather than greed and greenbacks. I tip my hat to all of you.

    Yea i heard about the linden one at apple bees but have never been. Have also been considering checking out PAR or tri dubbin but those are really still kind of far. A more local one would def be nice. If your going to head out to one or if you're going to start one in union county let me know.

    i think its time to bring the linden meet back, my friends have also asked me to start it up again. And seeing this, i think Linden may be a good location for the rest of you guys.
    Need detailing work done, PM me...located in central jersey!

    I have been to tri dubbin and those guys are great...but it's just really far and I really don't want to put 20k on this car in my first year of owning it.

    It would be awesome just to drive down 22 and meet. I would definitely be into it. I work in Rahway so I could just grab something to eat around here and then head over to 22.

    I live in Bridgewater so the further down 22 west in union county the better.

    Its not. A friend of mine is trying to start a meet there. We were there once with about 10 cars and no one bothered us. Its the parking lot closest to Morris on the side of the lowes garden center.

    What day are you planning for? I was thinking Tuesday wouldnt be bad so not to compete with the big wed & thurs established meets...

    As for the lot we can always just pick one to get it going and talk about a better location for the future ones??
