JtbtheWelder and I have put up a few posts about this GTG, but to ensure good coverage, I thought it'd be smart to include it in the Lightning and Harley sections since everyone reads these sections first it seems.
So here's the poop. The GTG is at Mark's Classic Cruise Night in East Granby, CT, about 5 minutes from Bradley Airport and 15 minutes from either Hartford, CT or Springfield, MA. We'll set up a pre-meet outside the car show so we can drive in and park together.
They have burgers, hot dogs, pizza, and non-alcoholic drinks, a 50/50 raffle, and an awesome show area. Food/Beverages/Tables are in front of the blue building in the background of the picture above. This will be the last event of the season there and there should be roughly 800-1000+ show cars so wear comfortable shoes if you like checking out the show. The event runs 5-9 PM, but you can leave anytime you want.
To date, the following people have shown strong interest in this GTG and are probably coming:
OldTimer (Mike/Lightning)
JtbtheWelder (Josh/Lightning)
Josh's Co-Worker*(Harley)
Crbf150 (Jim/Harley or Turbo Lightning)
207 (Jeff/Harley)
DiCapri50 (Darrell/Lightning)
Darrell's Neighbor (Lightning)
*SlvrFox (Bob/Harley)
*Scott/Gen1Lightning
PatKelly(Pat/GT500 Mustang)
Ct.TOPGUN (Jim/Lightning)
TimmyMac (Tim/Lightning)
DieselSVT (Lightning)
I'll edit this list on the fly as we hear from people. SlvrFox... you better be coming LoL! Jeff's coming from Danbury, so you can make it up from New Haven. All the CT Harleys/Lightnings need to come on out for a few hours and mix it up with your brother owners!
If we can get a cruise going from the Framingham, MA area maybe a bunch of the Eastern Mass guys will come too. Figure about an hour and a half and its all great roads Pike to I91. Likewise, if we can get some serious participation from coastal CT/RI that would be great.
OK, the gauntlet is laid down... lets see some New England trucks!
