Quite possibly be there. Depends on my work on call schedule --i can firm it up in a few weeks.

Mark, I may be able to attend this. I'll be attending the Musclepalooza event at Lebanon Valley Dragway the previous week and if I don't break my car I'll be up for this. It'll be cool to meet up with you and your brother.

[brianj]

What is this musclepalooza of which you speak? New thread----

[smitty54]

Saturdays are tough for me because of work, but I may be able to make this.

Brian, Musclepalooza has been sponsored by Hemmings Motor News for the last 10 years or so. There's usually two shows per year (Memorial Day Weekend, Labor Day Weekend). Both events are held at Lebanon Valley Dragway in New York. Basically, there's a car show featuring the older Musclecars ('62-'74) but most any factory type of musclecar can attend. It's a whole weekend of fun and it's great to see all the old Musclecars (both modified and non/modified) race down the track. The F.A.S.T. class of Musclecars all have to look factory stock but can be modified heavily internally. No aftermarket parts are acceptable and cannot be visible on these cars. They're all running much faster than they did when they were new. Also, the drag racing is separated into different classes such as the 10 second class, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15 and slower. This means that if you're in the 11's, you're racing another car in the 11's. Same with the 12's. There's none of the crap that you'd see at New England Dragway where my mid 12 second Cobra would be racing a 17 second Ford Focus and giving him a 5 second headstart.

I will be there for this show. I was disappointed that they didn't have this show last year. I will not be making Fordfest in NH this year. I was disappointed with the turnout last year as in years past.

I am up for this one too as it is always a good show.Pete it would be nice if you can make it. Paul lets see if we can gather a herd and ride down together. Last year I was at Tasca and asked about why they were not doing it and they said its a huge pain to set up and do because they have to move EVERYTHING to make it fit.Glad they decided to do it again and I hope they build up and start Bobs dragster again!

[mustang4life1985]

That sounds good to me Tim! We need to meet up and cruise in together. This is always a great show!

[trbofox]

I think we are coming out for this, we are Jonesing for some seafood and longing to see all of our New England friends. Would love to participate in the cruise guess I better get a map out.

[Her5.0]

Once it gets closer and everyone has a better idea on if they are Cruising down with the NH/Northeast crew, just post it up so we can let Tasca know. I know the RI guys and Cape guys might choose to head straight there, so we will see you there.

Would be Great to see you guys(was thinking about the AMerican Muscle Show in PA in a few weeks and was going to reach out to you guys, but too much going on). For Tasca If you stay down near the show in Rhode Island I wont be too much help, but if you stay in NH like before just let me know and I will find somewhere for us to meet up.

[Hissing Cobra]

Yes, if I go, I'll be heading straight there. It would be way out of my way to meet up with anyone from the other areas. For me, it's a straight shot down Route 195, then a merge onto 95 South.

[mustang4life1985]

This is coming up soon! I am in still in for this. Who else is confirmed?

[JTurbo]

Hmmmm, the Tasca show is the day before the MCCNE / Mustangs Unlimited show......

Decisions, decisions

I will not be at the Mustangs Unlimited show on the Sunday, so definitely doing the Tasca show. I only usually do the April MU show because it is not MCCNE. MCCNE has made me want to stay clear for never letting Capri's into shows and a few other things.

[satking]

Lets be honest the Tasca show is a 10 and the Mustangs Unlimited a 5 so there is really only one choice.....see you all in Rhode Island

[Her5.0]

FYI. Due to the Expected Attendance of this Event we decided to move the Meeting Times up an Hour so we can arrive at Tasca around 9am

[brianj]

[mustang4life1985]

Hope to see you there Pete. Jeff's son Jace is getting there for 1.

[Hissing Cobra]

[DRAGTOP89]
