Let's make this official. Base on the Poll results this meet is going to be:

DATE: June 26
TIME: around noon
LOCATION: Bridgeport, CT
EVENT: BBQ/ Photos (I've narrowed it down to 2 locations)
This would be the first choice. It's right down the street. Problem is, it might be crowded on a Summer weekend. If it is, we can then track over to  Seaside Park.

OP updated

OP updated with photo shoot spots

Count me as maybe. I might be starting a new job either this month or in June and wouldn't be able to get the day off. But I defiently wanna try and make it to this meet up.

Bump for the next greatest meet and almost a month away and fast approaching

At this point I will be able to attend this I hope things don't change! I'd like to get out and meet a lot of the members that I haven't had a chance to.

I won't be in N.E. early enough to make this one. I may be up in time for the MA meet though. Eventually, I'll get to meet all of you guys.

You know to call me if you need help with anything, right Chris?

You mean with the move?

Yeah man.  PM me if you need anything.  

Only a month away for this meet, huh?  I better make sure I'm ready.

i still need to put my springs on

Get those springs on already...I gotta go grill shopping this weekend being that the one I currently have is pretty small. BUMP!!!

I bought my grill from Lowes on a really really really good sale last month. I bought the 2nd to last one before they sold out in 15 minutes

Rich im so hoping that if this job goes through that I will be able to make it out to this meet. I would love to meet some of the NECM sqaud and just chill and hang out... we will see as we get closer!

during the interview, when they ask if you have any request or to negotiate ur salary, didn't you tell them that a part of ur sign on bonus is to have June 26th off ?

Hope you can make it bro. Cause if you don't, then I know half of TCC won't make it jk jk

Ha didn't even discuss that yet... Hopefully I can make it out and drag the team with me. Them slackers lolzzz, well if Arie goes I know Dino, Jay and Chino will attend atleast and a few others like Sam, Eric...

Yeah, I know the usual troopers will make it.

I'm definitely down for this one since I'm missing the Mercer County meet.

I hate to have to do this, but im going to have to pull out of this meet. Both of my sisters graduated this year (one from HS and one from College) and my family decided to have their party this same Saturday...

You have 2 sisters?

lol yep, Katie is 22 and just graduated from Denison University and Julia is 18 and is graduating from High school in June.

I've only met your younger sister then.

Steve, I believe the next question would be to provide pics of your sisters. Cause if there are no pics, then they don't exist, LMFAO

HA invite them to the BBQ, tell them we are making this special meet just for them

that's correct, you met Julia when we went down to RI to meet up with Mike.


im not posting pics of my sisters up... so guess they don't exist haha


hahah I highly doubt they would miss their own graduation party to come down to a car meet in CT.

Don't forget your birthday last year.  I was there for the steak and lobster.  


I'll vouch for Steve.  I know that at least one of his sisters exists.  I think I saw a pic of the other one at his parent's house.

thats right, you did meet julia for steak and lobster. lol

No problem Steve, I know you wouldve made it if you could. We'll see you at the Mass meet in July.

I dunno about this event for me right now. Im still in of course unless I can't get that day off! We will see though...

Workin on the day off to. They never wanna give weekened days off!

Well Rich I requested the day off... let's see what happens. I saw atleast 5 other requests for that day though...

Come on bro, if you believe it enough, it will happen lol.

Tommy, same goes for you.

I was hoping to make this meet, but I'll be on Vacation with the girl and friends from the 26th of June-5th of July, sorry guys :(

Exactly 2 weeks to go gents

I suck guys... Im stuck working my official first night closing by myslef 1*9, the only other manager working is 9*6soeither way im screwed on attending. I gotmy hopes up even though I saw like 10 requests off for this day.

Looks like im down and out on all saturday events going foward. My official day off is sunday..

Im sorry Rich, I was so looking foward to this, please Arie take lots of kodakz so that I may upload on TCC. Thanks guys...

Damn that sucks bro, but its all good. Hey, maybe i'll broadcast this event live on ustream.tv for all those who cant make It

EDIT: OP updated

Ok fellas we are just about a week away from this event. Let me get an official head count of who's heading out to this.

Tim are you still on for this meet, if not get the ribs ready and i'll pick them up :lol:

Let me know fellas

You have PM

I am probably out for this.  Family stuff may end up trumping this for me.  As soon as I have word on what's going on, I'll let you know Rich.

I WAS going to come to this, but then my dishwasher took the liberty of making plans with another couple to go to the fucking Boston Aquarium.  So instead of going to this meet I'll be going to go look at sea creatures.................

Really?  The Boston Aquarium?  That's the lamest aquarium I've ever been too.  I've been to better aquariums at amusement parks.  You want me to have a talk with her Justin?

No it's ok, my plan of attack is to make a big ass dinner next Friday night, then just leave all the dishes pots and pans in the sink.  Then on Saturday when she's like "you ready to go?"...I'll be like...."you're not going anywhere until the dishes are done"....then I leave and go to the meet.... : D

But yeah I agree the Boston Aquarium is lame as fuck.  On a serious note I did tell her I didn't want to make any plans this weekend or next weekend becasue I'm leaving for my road trip to FL a week from Thursday and I didn't want to spend a lot of money.  Apparently she didn't listen......

Rich, you gotta give me an exact meet up locaction for my gps and possibly a cell number in case my dumb ass gets lost. Also not gunna come empty handed so what do you guys need.

Rich, you got my text.  My plans abruptly changed and I will be free next weekend.  Rich, please PM me your address.

Tim, i responded to ur text earlier.

Tommy, its up to you. Check out the op for what others are bringing. Ill through out some examples: burgers, cheese, ketchup (we always forget this), etc.

I'll pm everyone my addy and cell around 7:30 when i get home

That's funny man, sorry you cant make it. You should have her change it to the Norwalk Aquarium and then stop by the meet on the way back (it's about 20min from my house when youre heading home)

PM with addy and cell# sent to everyone on the OP list. If you didnt get it, let me know.

I'm coming through for this one hopefully....

PM me your address. I won't show up empty handed so I'll have to see what I'm gunna take....

RICH!!!!!!!! I didn't get your text :-(   ----- no love for mr eazy lol

Kat and I are still coming along with Dino and his girl only issue is that we won't be staying for the weekend because I have to work on Sunday.



for those leaving the NYC area, hit me up if you want to caravan up to CT together.

Sucks I can't make it to this!

woo! i get to show off my new (to me) wheels!

Johnny, you got PM.

PM replied.

Hey guys what kind of food or stuff should I bring?

Johnny, bring what you like i.e. hot dog and hamburger buns etc. Check out the OP for what others are bringing.

Arie, i didnt txt anyone except Tim and Billy because they txt me first. I did pm everyone on the OP list though. Either way i'll be texting you later to fill u in on some non bbq related stuff.

I should find out weather or not I'll be traveling this weekend sometime tomorrow. Hopefully the install I might have to do is pushed to next week because I would really like to make this.

If you're not working, you're coming Mike!!

Yes for sure

Rich, do you still have the visor for me?

This looks like its going to be an awesome turnout and meet, I am really bummed I wont be able to make this...

Take lots of pics!

No fucking way Steve.

Grad Party remember? Unless your refusing to take pics.

I'm refusing to show you the pics I take.

It's sitting in the garage waiting for you to claim it. If youre not coming, or even if you are coming, give the exhaust tips to Arie so I can be sure they get here

For those of you who dont know what to bring, there are about 4 supermarkets within a 2 mile radius of my place. I picked up the drumsticks yesterday and will be preparing them for the grill Friday night. Thursday I'll be picking up another charcoal grill.

It's looking like I have to work... I'm trying to convince a co worker to take my place but, its not going well.

I just saw on the 10 o' clock news that Bridgeport, CT has a state on emergency going on. Heard there was a huge storm and people without lights.

If I can't get my clutch fixed, I'm not going to be able to make it down for this.  My car is currently a big as fucking boat anchor.

Damn Tim, just can't catch a break uh? Hope it works out by Saturday morning.

Tommy, yeah we had a freak storm that came through the downtown area and took out the power all evening. Power came back on and within 30mins a transformer went out. The power came back on about 3 hrs ago.

Well, I called out from work today to try and fix this.  I may not bring what I had planned if I do make it since I probably won't have time to make it if I'm working on my car today.

Alright fuckers, tomorrows the day.

Those that want to meet up and caravan, I am leaving brooklyn at 9am sharp and meeting up with Piero in the city @ 10am. Hit me up on my cell if you have the number or PM me.

Here's my story guys.  My clutch pedal is completely fucked and I am currently using the pedal that was damaged and re-welded.  I'm not that comfortable with driving so far away from home without a back up (i.e. - a new clutch pedal).  I'm going to have to back out of this meet unfortunately.  I really don't feel like getting stuck on the side of the road in CT because of my recurrent clutch problems.  Sorry guys.  Be safe and have fun.

tim whats up with this clutch pedal assembly?

It's busted again.  I put in my old one that was welded, and that broke tonight.  I need to get to a junk yard tomorrow some how to pick up another one since I doubt any dealerships have any in stock.  Wanna help me tomorrow?

It's a good thing I decided to stay here tomorrow, because it was going to break eventually and I would have definitely been stuck.

Hey guys. I got some of the worst possible news ever. Spent the entire day cleaning the car inside and out.,had food packed to bring to the meet and took the whole weekened off of work. So excited about going away and then car accident. I was driving straight through an intersection when some asshole drivng the other direction decided to whip a left turn right in front of me. I mean right there. No time to sway, brake, avoid nothing. Direct full force impact. Airbags deployed, knocking me right in the face, sealt belt locks up. The other car wound up taking down a street sign and wound up on the lawn of someones house. The car had to be towed. Looking like a total loss. This is so fucken bad. Don't even have collison on the car. Luckly I esacaped with only neck, back and knee pain. Thank God hondas have a good crash rating. I'll try and get photos up in the moring. Looks like I'm outta this meet and quite possibly every meet. This all happened at 7 tonite and fianlly got discharged from the hospital at midnite. FML

Hope your okay man!

That sucks man, but like you said, at least it wasnt on the side of the road in CT somewhere. We'll try to meet up at the July 17th meet.


Holy fuck Tommy, shit can get so fucked up sometimes. Glad you're not seriously hurt man. Let us know what we can do bro.


Ok guys, PLEASE, be safe on the roads. It seems like the warm weather brings out a lot on nuts on the roads, just an eye out for them. See you guys tomorrow...actually in a few hours.

leaving my house around 9, ill see you guys in a few hours

holy shit man, sorry to hear this...   Some ass hole did the same thing to my boy Jose trying to get a parking spot in Manhattan.

BACK ON TOPIC:
Rich, im waiting on Arie to leave from Manhattan at 10am.  


Tim, WTF?  I was looking forwards to chilling with you man! I even picked up some cuban's yesterday.  However, i do understand because i would have done the same.

Tommy, that sucks.  I'm glad you're okay.  I hope it all works out for you.

As far as me, I'm sorry guys.  I really did want to come today.  I'm pissed off because I keep having the same fucking problems with my car over and over again.  It's become unreliable because of my clutch issues.  It's time to call ACT and hand their asses to them.  I've had nothing but problems with my clutch and everything but my clutch has been replaced in the system.  So far, this will be my 3rd clutch pedal, 5th clutch master cylinder, 2nd clutch line, and 2nd slave cylinder.  The only thing that has not changed is my clutch.

Sorry I had to bail also guys.. In this economy I can't really afford to piss off my boss.

Have fun guys.... im at work pissed that im not there enjoying the day.

Damn Tommy I'm glad your not seriously injured! Hope they hooked you up with some nice pain meds

I hope everyone else made it to CT and back safe and sound, RIch is right the warm weather brings out all the terrible drivers.

Its too bad Tim couldn't make it, but at the same time I'm kinda glad... Now I get to see pics from this meet lol

Hahaha.

Speaking of Pics???

I'm *hoping* that once Arie gets back home he'll post them. I have to edit some of mine.

Despite everything that happened over the past few days with everyone who was suppose to show up, this meet turned out pretty good.

Thanks to the few members who managed to make it. Johnny and Eric, you guys missed out last night.

Piero, hope you get that overheating issue taking care of man

Tommy, hope youre doing better. Again, let us know if you need anything.

i'm having trouble uploading mine.

I would have liked to stick around last night, just have too much stuff to get done today. My droid decided to take me a different way home last night, ended up almost a 4 hour drive home lol.

Kodakzzzzz.... where all the kodakzzzzzzz! Lolz

Awesome meet guys!!!

Like most meets, where we lack in quantity of rides & members, we excel in quality of members, food, fun and of course the rides.

Here is the link for the Un-Edited Pics: http://www.flickr.com/photos/mreazy/set ... 371189210/ (http://www.flickr.com/photos/mreazy/sets/72157624371189210/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;)

Yet again, record time for Arie. You must have some kind of flu or something man.

I think its the tequila why he uploaded them so quickly

Tequila definitly helps with the motivational factor of uploading pics.

Tequila makes me strong like bull. lmfao

sorry Rich that i was not able to make it up there.   My car started over-heating on the way over to you.  I did not want to mess up my head so i had to turn back...  I did not even make it home, i had to leave the car in a parking lot in the bronx.   We where going to drive out there in my boys car but then traffic was the issue.

I need a new Water Pump & Thermostat $131.31 + labor.

I was so confused when you went onto the shoulder. I thought we were all gunna head back and drop you off then you were going to go in Arie's car lol.

It's all cool. Gotta get the car running good is a first priority.

Completely understandable P. It's crazy that this shit choose to break when youre on the way to youre first official meet of the season man. Now i gotta make sure i take care of my suspension parts before they start failing.

ohhh hell no Rich.....why did you not text me about the bbq.....i have been so busy i do not get to be online as much....this is a big no no.....dam it.....................

Sorry man, my bad. I thought about texting you, but i forgot. i thought everyone had seen this thread being that i posted it about 3months in advanced lol. Anyway, if your not doing anything tonight, Kev is coming up for me to help him work on his car. You can come up.

dami missed that again..lol you need to text me for things like this...lol
