Massachusetts Spring 2006 Meet - Cochituate State Park- Sunday April 23rd

mod edit by greenmonster: Updated info (as of 04/18/06)...

*** IMPORTANT LOCATION UPDATE ***

New Location: Cochituate State Park in Framingham, MA (Replacement for Hopkinton State Park and the next town over from Hopkinton (Framingham), so it shouldn't be a big deal)
Date: Sunday, April 23rd
Time: 11-4pm (But some of us will be there by 10am to get prime parking)
Info: Still BBQ, still great people, and still great cars (over 180 have signed up and not including the friends they are bringing along)
Directions: Cochituate State Park is located in the greater Boston area in eastern Massachusetts.

From East or West: Massachusetts Turnpike (Rte. I-90) to exit 13, Rte. 30 east. Park is on the right.

From Mass Pike: Take the Mass Turnpike (Rt. I-90) to Exit 13 to Rt. 30 East. The park is ½ mile down on the on the right.

From Route 9: Follow Route 9 East or West to the Speen Street exit in Framingham. Go North on Speen Street. Follow Speen Street for 1 mile until you come to Route 30. Turn right onto Route 30. Park is 200 yards down on the right hand side.

*** NOTE: Please be respectful of the area and DO NOT draw unnecessary attention to yourself by doing burnouts, revving the engine, etcc...We do not want to ruin it for everyone and get kicked out because one lousy idiot decided to "show off". Thanks guys and I'm looking forward to meeting everyone***

Cochituate State Park

You know I'm game.

I'm thinking Sunday is the best day usually for people. The only weekend I can't do it is on April 8-9 (MSF course). And April 16th is Easter, so I'm assuming no one would want it on that day either. So we're pretty much stuck with Sunday April 2nd, 23rd or 30th.

I'm liking April 23rd.

Haha... Hamel and his boys missed the HSP one in september, but they usually show up... I'll have to PM him...

I'll probably put something in my sigline (w/ a link to this thread, link to the photo thread, and link to the article Means wrote ) when we finalize the date...

I'm down for the HSP... that was a great place for a meet.

edit (just working on my new signature here):

That meet was by far the best we've ever had though the Fudruckers meet had more Acuras.

I look forward to this meet, but we'll see how many people will be interested.

Yes, definately, I'll be there.

With a little grill this time, lol, get some food.

Maybe we can get some sponsers/prizes/raffle or something along those lines.

The 23rd sounds good to me.

John - Did you also want to delete the posts up to this point and then modify the original post to include all the information?

It's probably easier to just start another thread (and I'll delete this one)...

Don't know if you want to wait till we get more feed back from some other massholes about the April 23rd date...

I remember last year we talked about trying to find some sort of sponsor or something, a raffle for parts, some stuff like that, think we can pull it through this time around?

Well, I was originally going to suggest that, but you said that you would change the topic subject and stuff hahaha.

So new thread it is.

And I don't think we're going to get too much more feedback from people. Looks like the Mass. crowd are in hibernation right now since barely anyone responds these days.

If someone wants to put the effort into looking into that, that's great, but I don't have the time.

Haha, actually, thanks for bringing it up. If we plan from this far ahead of time, it'll be an awesome meet.

I'm assuming were doing like last time and getting as many people as possible there?

Sweet dude! Let me know if you need help, though its pretty straight forward.

How much are you getting it for? I know a place that usually has a group buy for $820 shipped, but that's for a TSX.

hmm I'm not sure how much it'll be yet, but I know there was a group buy just recently for $757 shipped from Ray's Acura in New York. I'm gonna see if he can give me a good price when I purchase it in the coming months. I would have definitely gotten in on the group buy a couple weeks ago, but i spent $600 on winter tires.
