Welcome back don't forget Saturday is Droptoberfest if you van make it.

We also keep throwing up the idea of a "Dub a Que" at my house one day, I just got a new place and would love to throw a bbq there for everyone to chill and drink and meet each other. One day I will I just have to figure out a good day.

I can't wait until after winter to be able to take the car out all done.

[Sony487]

Sounds like a great idea for a BBQ ! If anyone can make Droptoberfest do so and meet th fellow nepa ppl. Glad to see continued growth and ppl in this thread

[DerWookie]

I'll be working overtime on Saturday. I won't make it to Droptoberfest But I look forward to the next one and a BBQ sounds cool.

Don't forget show&go on Sunday.

[Sony487]

Dan is it Gerritys off the Moosic exit you're meeting at in scranton?

[joeybags]

I agree with Sony this thread is making me happy its becoming a good place for good people to meet. Great momentum everyone

And its the Moosic street exit the Gerrity's is on Meadow AVE, that's where it usually is. Physical address is 320 Meadow Avenue, Scranton, PA 18505-2138

[Sony487]

Thanks usually go from Honesdale but might be easier this time to just meet up in Scranton

[Saams69]

I won't be there either. I have to work.

I've been debating whether or not I want to go to droptoberfest . . . but I think I might swing by and see what it's all about. Have any of you guys gone to it before? Is there much of a euro turn out or is pretty much just a gathering of fart cans & body kits? either way, it'd be nice to at least get a chance to meet some fellow local-ish dubbers

[Saams69]

How about euros with fart cans and body kits? Would that make you want to go? J/k

I've gone the last few years and its definitely not a euro show but more and more show up each year. There will be a decent mini truck scene, hot rods, ratrods, lowriders, definitely Honda s , etc. My big problems with the show was waiting for ever for trophies and the raffle but thankfully enough people complained so they said that this year will be a whole new Droptoberfest much more to do, trophies are handed out right after judging, and I think the rally course will be back this year. So yes there will be fart cans and huge spoilers and doors opening straight up to the sky, its just a close show with a good vibe, food and plenty of prizes.

[Sony487]

I havent gone before to the show either but it seems like it'll be a decent turnout for Euros anyway. I know of about 10 VW cars just from up in Honedale/Hawley area off hand and I'm sure there's more ppl from around the various areas coming in. Just my 2 cents hah Hope to make it there a decent time.

[Sony487]

Also there's a cruise setup for Saturday morning to Droptoberfest. I'm sure it was probably mentioned before but here it is again,

8:50-9:10 am Meeting at fun center parking lot in Hamlin
9:15 LEAVING
9:30 stopping at Gerritys in Scranton and leaving right as soon as everyone piles in.

contact geartripper08 on here for anymore info, there's a facebook page to I'll link later when I'm not at work

It is exciting to see some action in the NEPA area. I got the VR fired up yesterday, Idles a little rough but I think it's just bad gas. Need to get tires for it and do the brakes and he'll be ready to roll.

[joeybags]

[Sony487]

ahh I love the sound of a VR

[DerWookie]

ahh I love the sound of a VR

So do I. It's the main reason why I bought it. LOL I had to post a video sound clip for my brother on FB. He wanted to hear it running. It has a Magnaflow exhaust with Borla muffler no second resonator and Neuspeed intake.

[Sony487]

Sounds good, post up the link :thumb up:

[DerWookie]

I have to figure out how. I took the vid with my phone and just uploaded it to FB from there.
