Count me in too. How about meeting in Fort Lee, NJ at the Walgreen's right off the GWB. It's perfect for those from Palisades Pkwy as well as NYC. *** and plum probably know the place. We've met there before. And it has a Dunkin Donuts.Fine, let's meet in NJ.

Re: NY/CT Region Cruise to Alpine Motorsports Club Facility
What is this a NY meet that does not require going into the city. I'm in! There are also many rest area's on route 80 which are big and not out of the way because it looks like 80 is the best way to go.
To Charlie (stngklr) in the tuperware... Sell that heap already and buy a Viper.

Re: NY/CT Region Cruise to Alpine Motorsports Club Facility
Hello,
My name is John R. Heywang and I am the guy who has originated this road trip to the Alpine Motorsports club.Phil Franchino([email protected])has requested that I post a short critique on this site regarding the days event.And Mr. Scott Grayson,President of the NY/CT chapter, has graciously posted the event and taken time from his busy schedule to assist me in its organization gathering names of interested VCA members wishing to go.I made a "dry run" back in September to visit with Richard W. Muller,the President and founder of this most unique and exciting country club.I first met Richard at another car club event weekend some 10 years ago and he outlined his plans for this club.He was,at that time,having problems getting the land and the government approvals but that is now behind him.He has obtained 360 acres and all approvals and as the Alpine site has shown you,this club will be a one of a kind styled after the road course in Luxembourg.
The drive there is a simple but exciting run of about 85 miles out route 80 west and over the Delaware Water Gap to Route 33 south in Stroudsburg.We will then go 6.9 miles on Rt. 33 to the WIND GAP exit.After getting off onto the Wilkes-Barre Turnpike we will go 1/2 mile to Mountain Road which is a beautiful 2 lane road thru the back woods of PA. There the colors of the leaves,the country stream and the old houses form a magnificent backdrop for beautful and fast Vipers which will be traveling along it for only 7 miles.We will cross over 1 or 2 single lane country bridges and arrive at Alpine exhilerated and relaxed (especially for those who wish to get there at the 120 MPH that is customary for Viper owners).
When we meet at the Dunkin Donuts that Phil has set up for our meeting,I will be giving out a color road map,a set of explicit directions,and a color brochure on the Alpine project to insure noone gets lost.I will also be traveling behind to insure nobody has problems.
Richard has prepared a full presentation on the proposed club and he has a A-frame house on site with floorplan,model,and pictures on the walls.He is a low keyed and gracious individual and I am sure everyone will enjoy the day.RICHARD HAS ALSO GRACIOUSLY OFFERED EVERYONE A FREE LUNCH to make the day complete.
For those interested in membership,he has a special pre-construction discounted offer to propose to Viper Club of America members and can take you on an suv tour of the grounds if you wish.
I thought his offering was substantial and gave him the required deposit in September.It would be best to let Richard tell you about it.I am sure for those of you who like to go racing on oval tracks, have a garage to keep your race car in,have a clubhouse to talk racing and a Pro shop to buy racing items at discount while also having a place to bring your families who will have their own ammenities to enjoy,the Alpine Motorsports Club is a country club like no other in the USA.
Above all,we want you to have a fun filled day in what God promises us to be a warm Fall day in the 50's.
I look foreward to the honor of meeting all who wish to attend.
Thankyou.
Very truly yours,
John R. Heywang

I can head up a meeting spot on the NJ Turnpike. Many will be coming from the city so this might work as well as for southern guys.

My best shot is up NE PA turnpike and then rt 22 to 145, I believe. If DD is near there, let me know. Otherwise I will meet you at Alpine. Thanks [email protected]

Would you mind if a new Viper owner came along, I am still in break-in so I don't go that fast
Also, I'm off of 78 E/W not to far from the PA border, if anyone wants to meet up.
