PA DE NJ NY MD car show meet - Kahunaville

[Spike]

Hey there,

To everyone who is planning on meeting up at the Morgantown exit of the PA turnpike:

If someone near there can give me a landmark , then I can plot it on the map...

(rest stop, gas station, fast food, or just plain something with a parking lot that is visible from the road)

Thanks!

[Eckstream]

It wasnt me..... Been about 3mos since I was in WC. We must be in a VX hotspot here in SEPa!

[Eckstream]

Uh Spike.... There really isnt much in morgantown as far as a parking lot goes.... there is a rest stop about 9-10 miles east of morgantown on the turnpike.... Its across the highway from a sunoco station about 1/2way between morgantown and exton... I was planning on waiting on the on ramp for the turnpike till i saw some vxs go by and catch uo to them.... or have someone call me like 2miles away from morgantown..... My cell# is 4843331552 if anyone needs to get ahold of me.

[Spike]

I knew there was a couple rest stops out there somewhere. But it is so infreqent that I am out that way, I wanted to check.

The simplest thing to do is ask...

[VX_PA]

I tried to PM you my address Spike, but your box is full.

I also modified the list of who is coming. I know there are more VXer's that are in the surrounding area, come out to the meet!!

[Spike]

Odd thing is, my PM box is actually empty... go figure...

So should we make this game plan official?

How about an initial merge near Morgantown from everyone in Central and Western PA

Then a secondary West Chester area merge for everyone else who is north and east of there via 202... after that.. we all head down 202 to 95 to the auto show.

If Anyone else south of West Chester or those who might be coming down from points north of Philly, via south I-95, can just meet up with us down there; rather than head back north to meet the West Chester convoy.

We can pick official spots as we get closer to the date.

Guys,

I am in too. What time? I live in Wilmington.

i'll go if some other nj/ny vx ers wanna take the drive w me?

[VX_PA]

Spike,

I sent you an e-mail. Let me know if anyone else has emailed you but hasn't posted here so I can add them to the list of attendees. Also we need to set the time to meet.

Amack76-- I think Bantan is going to try to make it down from NY. Maybe you can get in touch with him??

[Spike]

No one else sent me emails as of yet...

[Spike]

Directions to KahunaVille:
When we get the number and meeting time locked down, we should call them and see if they can set aside a spot to line us all up. (Or at least let them know we have a group of cars showing up all at once)

Anyway, here are directions for those not planning on taking the convoy (posted from their web site)

From North
-Take 95 South to Delaware
-Cross into Delaware and take Exit 6. (Martin Luther King Blvd.)
-Including light at bottom of ramp, go 4 lights and make left. (Lancaster Ave./M.L.K. Blvd.)
-Go 3 lights and make right. (South Madison St.)
-Kahunaville is 1/4 mile down on left.

From South
-Take 95 North to Exit 6. (Martin Luther King Blvd.)
-At bottom of exit bear right and stay in right hand lane. (turn only lane)
-At next light make another right onto South Madison St. and get in left lane.

Massachusetts
Florida
California

Texas
Virginia
Maryland

[lastmandrummer]

hahaha it wuz a joke my friend....
however i drive thru philly everyday and most people on RT 76 drive really bad....
besides the fact the person who hit me.....did so by rear ending me in the rain at 4am in the middle of the highway while doing 50mph with no other vehicals around! he does not sum up the states drivers as a whole, but that is pretty damn stupid if you ask me...

LOL anyway no offense intended my friend..
kevin

[Spike]

Oh no offense taken whatsoever.

I know it was a joke... The PA vs NJ driver debate has gone on since the first vehicle from either state crossed the Delaware... and that battle will never end.

However, I find it quite amusing that PA didn't make it to the top (errr... bottom) ten list.

So while I actually agree with you that Philadelphia drivers are awful... this news shows that NJ and at least 9 other states are worse.
